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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- 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.
