    If you don’t value the thing for it’s intended function why are you bothering to take one?

    That’s beside the point, the point is that I don’t borrow things because I like to have the ability to use them however I want and according to my current needs.

    I have a paint can that I can’t get open, but I own a flathead screwdriver. It’s not the intended purpose of a flathead screwdriver, but I can use it as a prybar to open the paint can, if the screwdriver breaks, now I have 2 pieces of metal to use for something else.

    I don’t mind working, but I would like to work for a currency that I can use to buy things that I will own and see to use however I see fit for it to be used.

      Ok man. The use of money does indeed enable you to be a loner misanthrope that is ambivalent about your reputation.

      Other “social” systems rely on being “social”
