    His inner peace is selling junk to morons.

      No, that was his deep shame. When he has a vision of his farmer farther he calls Don a bullshit farmer. The term “crap artist” used to be used to mean a liar. Like someone who worked at a tire shop taking old worn out tires and painting on new treads so they could resell them to rubes. Don finds inner peace when the father in the support group describes a dream in which he’s an item in the fridge that no one wants. This personification gives Don’s life of selling products meaning as now he sees the value in what he does. Don (or young Dick, rather) is the product that no one wanted that he had to learn how to sell.

      have a nice day.
      The only "meaning" in this "show" is advertising smoking. There is nothing else in it. That is the only reason this filth exists, to advertise smoking and force children to smoke to promote children smoking. Evil shit
      have a nice day you evil scum

      >Don is ultimately unable to change, no amount of duress can break the cycles of his life and he is doomed to repeat them until he dies. He will continue to work in advertising, continue to remarry and prostitute around and continue to self destruct.
      >Pete Campbell is the opposite; where once he tried to be just like Don, and it cost him everything, now he reunites his family and leaves for greener pastures, escaping the circling drain of Madison Avenue and the business culture there.
      >Roger learns to settle down and to stop chasing thrills; he finds his happiness by falling in love with Marie - a woman who matches him in both age and temperament
      >Similarly, Peggy realises that having a successful career will never make her whole, and finds her femininity at last through embracing her feelings for Stan
      >Conversely, Joan learns that her life isn't defined by her relationships with men, and her skills and business accumen that she develops over the course of the show buy her freedom to determine her own path

      >Betty gets fat and then dies of cancer

      what do you think happens to Sally? She hates Megan so will not live there. Will she run off and get passed around a commune like Roger's daughter did?

      have a nice day

      Very relatable. Some people change, I can't.

          I know you're all feeling the darkness in this board today. But there's no reason to give in...In my heart I know we cannot be defeated...This is a test of our patience and commitment. One great thread can win someone over.

              He came to the inner peace that Hershey represented a heresy of unattainable inner peace, therefore achieved enlightenment.

              Either Don realises there's more to life than chasing contracts, or Don came up with one of the most successful advertising campaigns ever
