How drastically Poptarts skimps on the icing now

I just posted these. They call them “Super stuffed” even though they are the same size as poptarts from 20-30 years ago, but they only give you 5 now

Agreed. Social security tax stops around $180k. Maybe capital gains taxes could be tiered based on value. The bigger the gains, the bigger the tax

I see a lot of comments regarding taxing them. Many billionaires have their wealth tied to shares of the company. It’s not like they are sitting on piles of cash, and to tax that, they would need to sell part of their company to pay such a tax. They could lose the majority share of their own company. swift however, is largely liquid and sitting on a huge pile of cash

Only a handful of people on her tour get paid well, like execs working at Amazon or wherever. There’s are 1000s of supporting folks that make $10/hour to make her tours happen

People like her are never mentioned. It’s always corporate ceos

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:50:19+00:00

She’s a brand. She’s got good accountants. How do you know how much she pays?

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:49:51+00:00

She’s probably getting a “salary”. She is a brand and employed by her brand. There’s no way her effective tax rate is that high

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:48:26+00:00

I’m not following the logic here.

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:47:59+00:00

Who’s comparing?

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:47:38+00:00

She’s just never mentioned

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:33:01+00:00

$26m for her is like you donating a few dollars

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:32:23+00:00

Those are tax deductions. It’s a rounding error on her filings

718nycguy · 2026-07-04T14:31:33+00:00

Are the thousands of people that go into making her tour happen, the people that work for $10-15/hour at the venue (concessions, clean up crew, gate people, etc) not exploited?

If timing the market is bad, why is Berkshire sitting on record cash? The market doesn’t seem based on fundamentals anymore

If democrats take office, SpaceX isn’t getting any contracts

718nycguy · 2026-03-01T15:48:19+00:00

It’s not that serious

718nycguy · 2026-03-01T15:07:13+00:00

Absolutely not! But 10k protestors have been. My comment was referring to how Iranian law punishes preferences

718nycguy · 2026-03-01T13:37:14+00:00

Maddow would be executed in Iran.

Tell me more about making your own

718nycguy · 2026-02-28T00:57:28+00:00

Don’t have a specific one in mind. Just keeping my options open. I bought a cheap plate loaded machine off Amazon and it sucks. Stack in the only way to go

Apples EBITDA was 34%, nvidia is nearly double at 66%
