Economy Income inequality and wasteful spending

[Crazy Source]

Buying shelves from IKEA to accommodate shit in the garage I'm gonna throw out.............

Got it.

You're an advocate for socialism.

Say no more. It explains everything.

Yeah you might be too if you actually knew what it was. Instead you’ll stay stupid. Got it. Keep lying to yourself about how you did t suck at the government’s teet for 17 years.

You want to come in here and call people village idiots, and you write a story about how you through your benefits away over being triggered about trans rights. I wonder if you’re really so arrogant that you don’t understand just how stupid that sounds.

he probably isn't. but i am.

Not at all. I used to be one of those people. I used to spend money like a drunken sailor when I was younger.

I wish someone had a frank conversation about money with me when I was 19 rather than having to figure it out for myself in my 30s.

So this thread is you just projecting why you're poor?

 

[sickc0d3r]

Hahaha!! "This is because feminism."

You are so predictable in your standard issue programmed talking points its actually impressive.

He's a troll. And a dumb, boring one. Like most of the foreign Trump fans are.

I relocated in my 20s with a camping roll and a minivan with the back two rows of seats taken out. I worked 50 hour weeks in a kitchen after I relocated and slept in my van in the parking lot. All while finishing college.

I think the problem with people like you is you don't have any comprehension of earning something. You think everyone doing better than you was given it and you're just sitting around waiting for your turn.

Your turn isn't coming. You have to work for it.

I dont really NEED to respond to this because I've already detailed some of my own experience in another replies, but its nonsense, and all it does is demonstrate that you have survivor bias. I've had to literally fight with my fists to get where I am, and have permanent nerve damage in one of my eyelids, floaters, a destroyed shoulder, among other things to prove it. I came to Vegas with nearly nothing, no Family support, and even the car I drove took a sh*t 2 months after I got here. In fact my entire journey here from Florida is logged in the archives of the training logs here on this board.

However, I had a connection and that connection got me somewhere stable. That connection provided me with an opportunity and when push came to shove that was all I had. The difference between me and you is I dont use my good fortune to sh*t on people who are where I once was, and I also dont like heriarchical thinking, so I don't think I owe some more fortunate dude some debt of gratitude for every job I've ever had, nor do I owe them this ideological allegiance that they are inherently better than that talented homeless juggler I mentioned earlier.

Well you definitely do seem to have some kind of brain damage given you just imagined up this whole chunk lol

 

[Deleted member 592570]

So you're a busy little bee. Good for you. Why should anyone care?

I don't know. Why are you posting over and over in my thread if you don't care? Lol

 

[Deleted member 592570]

Pick a partner who doesn't like to spend.

Where were you with this advice ten years ago, brother. Lol

Yeah, I sure imagined your whole opening post attributing poverty to irresponsibility up.

But another nice move from attributing my position to feminism because I had a Mom, to now I'm wrong because I boxed and have brain damage. Truly I'm no match for your dizzying Pro-heirarchy intellect

Attributing poverty to irresponsibility has nothing to do with hierarchies.

You box? OK so you understand calorie deficits right? If you consume more calories than you burn, you gain weight. Just invert that. If you spend more money than you make, you gain debt. If you spend less than you make, you gain savings. Savings can then be used to invest.

It isn't rocket science

And everyone has a mom. They nurture you and tell you what you want to hear. Like that you're smart and special. You also need a dad. He tells you what you need to hear. That you're dumb, lazy and irresponsible.

lmfaoooo this thread gets better and better. you need therapy my boy. it's (probably) not your fault your dad hated you.

All young people are dumb, lazy and irresponsible. It's your dad's job to explain that to you so you can grow up.

Attributing poverty to irresponsibility absolutely has to do with heriarchical thinking. Perpetuating the notion that people are poor solely, or even mostly because they are moral failures of some sort is a pinnacle of hierarchical thinking and is often used politically by elitists to suggest why they shouldnt vote. If they cant manage money, why should they have any say in who Governs them? That's at the heart of the contentions of Curtis Yarvin, whose cult many of your billionaire overlords are in.

Yeah, I boxed and I was certified as an R.D. for a while. Telling a fat person that their problem is they have a caloric surplus and then patting yourself on the back as having figured out all their problems is a good way to catastrophically fail at managing the health of people who need to lose weight. It literally tells them nothing of how to manage their caloric intake, or where to get it from, how to drop weight without becoming unhealthy, and operates on the premise that there probably isnt a way to do so in an unhealthy manner, and there is. Telling someone with financial issues that money matters are as simple as "make more, spend less" is idiotically simple. It's a child's viewpoint. Hoarding money doesnt do d*ck to build wealth unless you already have it. Youd have to live to ve a few thousand years old to get Eloy's money just by stacking checks. Lol

I'm sorry you think Moms placate and Dads degrade. If that happened to you, it truly sucks and I wish you had better parenting. But if you have kids yet, I sincerely hope you dont parent them with such ridiculous notions. If you do have kids, I suggest some therapy and a lot of reading before it's you who creates the next insecure whiny sociopath trying to dominate the World because you wouldn't hug him

Not millions of times but he definitely works harder and more. My dad made time for his family. Musk, as far as I know, works pretty much all day every day. He also took bigger risks than my dad did.

My dad definitely could have been a lot richer if he had prioritized work over everything else and let his family fall apart like Musk did. He could have invested his money in the stock market rather than in providing a home for his wife and kids and he had the income that if he had done that well, he could have multiplied his money that way.

My dad also turned down several promotions over the course of his career so he'd have more time with his family and because my dad loved his very niche very technical job and had no interest in running a department.

Musk has always taken on a management role. Those pay more.

My dad also died relatively young of cancer and spent his last five years in poor health. Even still, I'd say my dad lived a happier and more fulfilled life than Musk has because of the choices he made. Financial wealth isn't the only measure of success.

How old were you when your dad died?

Younger than I would have liked to have been. What a creepy thing to dig through my posts about.

So would you recommend just giving them all the food they want? Because that's what you're arguing financially.

You posted it in one of my threads genius. You also said this in this thread:

The 'lives matter' stuff is referring to people getting murdered. And the chronically unemployed are not the same as a person between jobs.

I'm going to have to ask an indelicate question. Were you raised by a single mom, by any chance?

No, but I'm sensing a lack of a strong male role model.

Don't be a little crybully meow. You went there, so I'm going there. So how old baby boy?

I was 25 when my dad died of cancer. And I didn't absorb a lot of the lessons he imparted until after he died. That's one of my biggest regrets.

When I was in my late teens early 20s socialism maaaaan phase he thought I wasn't listening when really I was just too stupid and stubborn and proud to admit he was right about it all. I was listening and he was right.

Luckily I moved home to help my mom six months before he died so I was able to really have some great talks with him and say goodbye properly.

Thanks for sharing, I'm truly sorry for your loss. It's something I'm quite familiar with and that's the last time I'll go there. Please remember that when talking with others.
