The idea of a perfect life. Would want to live one?
Ever dream of becoming a rockstar? Yeah, me too. How about walking down the red carpet with a really pretty lady, smiling and posing at a photoshoot and going home to your 37th floor suite at some luxurious tower? Oh, and not to mention having a bank account that could run a whole country for decades.
I mean, face it. Is that your ideal prospect of life? Bring your hopes down a little bit. First is, that’s not gonna happen. Second, that may happen but you’d still want more. People, basically nine-hundred-ninety-nine out of a thousand, would want even better. As they say, the grass is always greener somewhere else.

Though in reality, the idea of a perfect life is quite simple. You don’t expect much, don’t dream too much, don’t wish that you own that guy’s limo, or his pops multi-ventured gas company. Ideal life is a matter of expectations. The lower it gets, the easier and faster you attain it.
Get a job, get a nice salary, something that is enough to pay for the rent, credit card bills, expenses, with some left for your savings account. Then someday marry a pretty woman, have babies, and enough of that savings to provide them a comfortable life.

Maybe die a little too early so you could leave her with all the trouble of raising your ten children, as payback for nagging at you the last five years of your marriage…or suchlike.
Get my point? Simple life. Ideal.
