Money, money

At the beginning of this drama, the idea was that there are no absolute good and bad people in this world. Everyone has his evil side, maybe it is evil at the level of the whole society. Troubles are simply beyond description, everyone has their own paranoia. At my age, I don't understand at all that since it's so uncomfortable, it's so uncomfortable as a bystander, and the protagonists must be even more uncomfortable, why don't they give up their messy and uncomfortable relationships. If you don’t want to deal with it, don’t deal with it, and do what you want. I still can’t understand what it means to be involuntarily at my age. All the troubles and entanglements revolve around one money. In this TV series, feelings have been reduced to money toys, always dominated by money, and there has been no healthy relationship and state since poverty.

Skyler White: I need support. Me! The almost 40-year old pregnant woman with the surprise baby on the way and the husband with lung cancer who disappears for hours on end and I don't know where he goes and he barely even speaks to me anymore with the moody son who does the same thing and the overdrawn checking account and the lukewarm water heater that leaks rusty looking crap and, and is rotting out the floor of the utility closet and we can't even afford to fix it but OHH, I see, now I am supposed to go 'Hank, please what can I possibly do to further benefit my spoiled, kleptomaniac, bitch sister who somehow always manages to be the center of attention, cuz God knows, she is the one with the really important problems.
Hank Schrader: Want me to take a look at that utility closet?

Walter White: [Walt tries to figure how much they need to make for his family to be financially secure] Adjusting for inflation-a good state college-adjusting for inflation, say $45,000 dollars a year. Two kids, 4 years of college: $360,000 dollars; remaining mortgage on the home: $107,000; Home equity line: $30,000; That's $137,000. Costs of living: food, clothing, utilities: say, two-grand a month. That should put a dent in it anyway. 24K a year provide, for say, 10 years, that's $240,000 dollars, plus 360 plus 137: Seven-thirty-seven. $737,000 dollars, that's what I need. You and I both clear about 70 grand a week, that's only 10 1/2 more weeks call it, or eleven. Eleven, call it eleven more drug deals and always in a public place from now on. It's doable. Definitely doable.
