My Dad and I met Josh on set of a tv Pilot Antoine Fuqua was directing, but not on set. We all went to a big hall for lunch and even though he was the star he came to eat with everyone. He saw my dad and I hanging out as we were just visiting the writer and showrunner, and he thought it was super cool we were hanging out and laughing. So he asked us if he could have lunch with us. This was maybe 20 years ago. He was super cool and so down to earth and humble. He ate and talked with us the entire time, even encouraged me to act if it was my dream 😂 one of the coolest actors ever.

Still love The Goonies! It was playing at my hometown movie theater 5 blocks from home in the summer of 85'. One afternoon as I walked home from the pizza place across the street from the theater I found a $10 bill on the sidewalk. I got to my house so excited & asked my mom (I was 2 months from turning 10yrs old) if I could use the money I just found & go watch The Goonies. She said yes & back I walked to the theater. About halfway through the movie there was a blackout caused by a passing thunderstorm & they gave us a ticket to come back another day. I went back the next day & watched it again, this time the whole movie. It was awesome. Back then as a 9-10 yr old kid in the mid 80's, our parents let us out to play without fear of anything bad happening & it really was a GREAT time to be a kid! At least in my neighborhood, we were always outside playing sports in the street during the day & at night we'd play kick the can or manhunt. There seemed to be a group of "Goonies" in every neighborhood! Great memories.

That's a good interpretation; right up there with "those who say $$$ doesn't buy happiness don't have any money" and "...$$$ may not buy happiness but it can purchase a boat where you can sail real close to it". When I earn money from work or business, I'm happy period. I'm also generous and want to share that feeling by sharing my money. Even then I must be careful to not let my elation from getting money have me end up broke again. Money is a tool that CAN buy happiness but does NOT guarantee it. $$$ helps people eat, have shelter and feed their families; food & shelter can equal happiness. Greed and avarice is the negaive side of the love of and addiction to money.

People were never so lost until social media came i to being. I’m an older gentleman and I just love being in a setting where people are in a waiting area like an airport or a doctors office and I look around and see everyone with their phones out and mindlessly scrolling the internet. 50 people in a room and there is no interaction between them.

[@BeUnapologeticallyYourself]

@ As a millennial, we weren’t taught to connect with others. We were told to be productive and one day you’ll be happy. You’ll meet someone when “you’re ready.” Just go to school, get a job, and start a family. It was never about actually living. Just a stupid checklist. All we know how to do is work for “things.” The silver lining of our system collapsing is that now we can move our focus to living and let the older generations either adapt or die alone in their comfy retirement recliners. Our generation was led astray by the previous generations. Very few authentic old people.

[@michaelreardon303]

The American Dream CAN still exist if we collectively want it to, but we have to act on the ground level. Social media was never meant to rule our lives. Young Men & Women are being mislead to “red pill” or push “feminism” but acting in extremes is the equivalent of having nutrient pumped into our veins instead of eating and sleeping. We are naturally social creatures who have to go out into the real world and socialize with people not be so connected to the hive mind that is the internet. Watching these programs & podcasts is good like the radio in days of old; tech we’ve had 100 years ago but we still have to go out and make decisions, mistakes figure out who’s with us not just who agrees with us because our society has taught us to RAGE when we don’t hear something we like or punish people for not getting it right the first time and the Gen Zers and Alpha-ers are watching older people get crucified cuz they talked against the system and are too afraid to make a mistake because it will be viewed by the entire world and judged on the strictest of terms. We can get thru this together if we want, I think there are so many opportunities to survive & thrive if you’re willing to get out of your comfort zone and travel across the 50 states to find where you belong and manifest your own destiny but there is still a long way to go because there has to be opportunities for everyone not if the economy keeps going in the direction of retail & fast food; it’s like the food you put into your body, there should be more available trades for people who work hard, produce a skill that is in high demand and pays a wage you can afford your own house/property. Low Minimum wage for Early/Late Teens to get started or retired people who can’t physically do a tight 40, good paying white collar for those who were smart in what they studied and important to us. & always leave a little extra so we can help other countries when we take care of our own. We have the tools to be good to each other, we just gotta stop thinkin so defeatist and think more idealistically because that’s how we can save our world and spread our faith. God works thru us, he doesn’t force us on our knees we willingly serve him when/if we have the wisdom to understand just how much he challenges us.

Josh Brolin is cool as shit and seems to really have his shit together. Great Interview.

[@YankeeMugwump]

It's refreshing to hear to celebrities talk honestly about their careers. I never considered how tough it is being rich and famous; and I mean that sincerely. Luckily I wasn't born with that desire to be in show business to entertain or be applauded. The approval of my wife and kids is all I'll ever need. I have little money and have to leave soon to pick my truck up at the shop. But I've never done drugs nor feel the need to do so. I'll consider myself lucky and go on living this quiet, inauspicious life.

[@lou1958]

I would think being rich would be just fine, but it's the famous part that could destroy you. Not that I would know of course.

[@eddiebingbong7977]

Gaaayyyy

[@Lucalikesstuff]

@@lou1958 Wherever people are in life, if they look for meaning in the wrong places they can find themselves in a pretty bad situation. A lot of people seem to treat getting rich as a goal or money as an answer to their problems, but when they get there they find out how hollow it is and that breaks some people or sends them down a dark path. Money should only ever be treated as a resource to pursue things that are actually meaningful.

[@mongolikechewchew2475]

The fact you have what sounds like a happy & healthy home life with your wife & kids to me makes you "rich" in a different sense, in a much more fulfilling way. Having the ability to be a good husband & father is worth all the money in the world, being supportive, teaching your kids how to be kind, street smart, stick up for those that aren't able to for themselves, be truthful no matter what, etc, to me is a amazing gift from God!
