Not directly relevant, but I’m surprised at how many people I’ve known over the years who think “correlation does not equal causation” means “correlation equals not causation”. In other words, they think correlation is somehow proof of a lack of causation. “Correlation does not necessarily mean causation” would be a better formulation of the original expression.
Once had a middle school classmate declare there were more rains over mountains because rain make them grow faster. The geography teacher was not impressed.
You’re putting the cart before the horse. Drugs cost money, rich people have money, and that’s why rich people do drugs.
Drugs are good.
They make you do the things you know you not should.
And when you take them your friends think you’re cool!Absolute classic
It’s important to take the right drugs, if you want to get rich.
- For example you should take marijuana edible and vapes. Don’t smoke the dried flowers directly.
- You should take prescription painkillers. Avoid heroin and black market fentanyl.
- Do not take Methamphetamine. Try cocaine instead.
- Hallucinogens should help across the board

Started out with genuinely good advice, though. Getting your THC from edibles and vapes is MUCH less bad for your health than inhaling smoke of any kind.
Don’t do drugs
The tips about opioids and stimulants are also valid if you want to reduce harm while doing those kinds of drugs.
There’s a reason rich people prefer them.
Absolutely do not take prescription painkillers recreationally. Just don’t. You might think you have self control but that shit can very quickly and easily take over your life.
If you are not rich the money will eventually run out and you will have to turn to street drugs. Then things get really bad and really dangerous. I have seen this first hand many times. Just don’t do it.
There are too many great drugs out there to risk fucking around with opioids.
Yeah but like the thing that causes addiction is poverty (or some other unmet needs or trauma) so it doesn’t really matter.
That is absolutely not the only cause of addiction. Plenty of heroin addicts started off with opiates for a legitimate reason.
Most drugs with a high addictive potential are that way because they’re physically addictive, meaning you experience bad physical symptoms when quitting. Many people don’t quit because those symptoms are so horrendous (and some can literally kill you)
Also, there’s a shocking number of addicts who are only addicts because their parents drugged them as children because they didn’t want to get high alone. (My SO did youth addiction counseling).
Poverty isn’t a cause of addiction, but addiction can easily be the cause of poverty.
Edibles are better than vapes, too. It isn’t just water vapor and THC coming out of those things. I prefer tablets, though; when I eat a brownie, I’d rather it not taste like I just licked a lawnmower.
I actually like the taste of weed and chocolate. Am I weird?
My mom, who was very much a hippie, always told me “don’t do drugs, but if you do, do them with me so I can make sure you do them right.” Thanks for reminding me of her.
what rich people take depends on their location, culture, politics and ideology. if you want to be a right wing american prick, try weed, ayahuasca and ketamine. the specific proportions of each are a carefully guarded family secret of each billionaire family. it’s difficult to get precise measurements without visiting them on their own (or epstein’s) private jet.
Don’t do drugs
Except datura. Try datura now, you can look up the effects once you’ve taken it.
Oh man that was a week’s worth of talking to dead relatives with a mouth full of sand.
4/10 would do again if there’s nothing else around.
I do drugs and I have lots of money so yes.
I did drugs and had very little money so no.
That’s because you didn’t do enough drugs.
humans are made of 50-60 % water, babies even up to 80%
that means, basically, that water is made of 50 -60% humans, and up to 80% babies! and babies are also humans! meaning water is made of up to 140% humans!!!
