I used to work with one of these shit heads, he drove around in an expensive ass car that his daddy bought for him, didn't do shit at work, got in trouble constantly, failed a drug test, and destroyed NUMEROUS workpieces costing 20k a piece. The company kept him on through all of this because his father knew one of the top guys at the company. And he was adopted! He basically won the lottery, and wasn't thankful for a damn bit of it. The only reason he even had to work was because his father wanted him to have just a little bit of responsibility.
I eventually took his position when the company FINALLY got sick of his shit and fired him.
a prime example of a little spoilt shit who's parents shoulda given the odd slap to as a kid.

you really shouldn't regret not getting rich. for all you know if your life went another way and you won the lottery or something, you may well have got on an airplane to jet off to some luxury resort and got killed in a plane crash. or that direction could easily have gone in any number of bad directions. becoming rich isn't a get out of jail free card, not by a long shot.

I also don't believe in spankings as a way to discipline a kid either. There may be so exceptional circumstances that warrant it, but in general it's a bad thing going and studies do show that. I don't think parents are necessarilly "bad" parents for spanking or a slap on the wrist or something like that, but it really should be avoided, but no parent is perfect. The kids don't learn anything from it, but how to act aggressive themselves. It also doesn't stop the problem anyway,not in the long term and can cause rifts in the parent/child relationship anyway. Anyone who still clings to "well, in my day I got my ass best and look, I turned out fine!" is just defending their own abuse and a bad practice that has proven doesn't work and literally causes irreversible mental health problems for their children because "they" were subjected to it, so everyone else should be fucked up just like they were too.
As a kid I got spanked maybe once or twice growing up. Very rarely, and when it happened it was over something super serious and bad I did. Though there was a lot of ideal threats of being spanked when I was real little and told over and over how good I had it since other my parents described this awful abuse they were subjected to as kids. For all the abuse my father especially was out through, I did get off lucky having a father who wasn't so quick to use violence to discipline me, and again I'd only ever had the mildest of mild spanking once or twice and can say yeah… I deserved that shit. He would more threaten and make that snapping sound with the belt than anything when I was being given bad. I don't think that was a good thing either and probably fucked me up in the head someway too since threats of violence can be just as bad in some cases as the violence, but that too wasn't all the time or super common- it was very few and far between and I had far more emotional, verbal and mental attacks and abuse from my mother than anything my father ever did. Honestly, know I think of it the times he did threaten me and spank me were at my mother's pressure. She'd always use him as a way to leverage punishment "wait til your father gets home!" shit since she had no fucking clue how to parent and was too lazy and drugged up to do anything anyway. Plus she couldn't physically punish me anyway… I'd have snapped her in half if she would have touched me to spank me- she didn't have the strength or the backbone to do it.
they banned smacking kids about 20 years or so ago here. now all the teenagers are totally cheeky nasty little spoilt bullying shits. all they've learnt is that they can do and say anything they like and nobody is really gonna do fuck all to them

Public Safety is used as the excuse but it looks to me like lots of people are dying from all kinds of drugs, illegal or not.
its prohibition that is the direct cause of death from illegal drugs. people od coz they don't know the purity from one bag to the next(or impurities). they don't know this because prohibition forces them to get their supply from irresponsible gangsters. its extremely hard to dose a drug when you don't know its purity to start with.

There is a rampant drug crisis going on in every single country right now and capitalism and UN government regulations only fan the flames.
The best solutions we have come up with since 1900 are legalizing and harm reduction and this

Technology is supposed to make our lives easier.
its prohibition that causes the crisis ffs.

dying in sleep, painless, anyway in which I don't get to experience the full-on Technicolor death experience. not saying I want to die anytime soon. just that I want to ride that trip to the max when it does come. its the final and ultimate trip. the trip where we finally get to find out the answer to the op's question.
