That's the greatest thing ever. The thing is, in the place of Joe, I would do neither.

Instead, I lied to a kid with a crush on me to get $300 bucks out of him.

I do agree with the idea that we expend more effort to keep ourselves where we are, instead of using it to move forward.

Interesing post. I'll think about that.
