A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I'd say it's more linked to how many dependents you have, rather than money in the bank.

Someone with no kids, no ~~wife~~ spouse (edit), and no pets can be spontaneous without a second thought.

Someone who's tied down, but wealthy, not so much.
