Well I dont know why you are trying to be so sophisticated. Status quo, status maintenance, high maintenance, competition with your neighbors, friends and all that blah blah... Why cant people live a simple life. If you feel like you cant sustain KTM, then get the hell out of there. You dont need to be unique or stand out of the crowd. Go to other parts of the country, open up a ranch, farm, factory, do something that you are good at, be an entrepreneur and help yourself and others if you can. Do not make it complicated. If you even ever hit the bottom, the things could only get better after that. Happy New Year.
