What's in it for me?

That's what everyone says... Sure they can do this or that, but the question always pops up first: If i do this, what's in it for me? 

I see it everywhere, in everything. How people drive, how they fall in line, how they reply to my messages etc. They won't do it unless there's some kind of benefit or it would help them avoid something bad. That's how everyone thinks. You might be the same.

Everyone from the politicians in office to the beggars on the street. All the same.

So when you try to make something long term with the cooperation of others, they don't care. If there's nothing beneficial for the short term, there's no point. For me, and for them. No one does anything for the sake of doing it... despite the possible outcomes... no money now, no work now. Plain and simple.

This is probably why people migrate... looks pretty hopeless sometimes
