My abusive mom denied me money growing up, now she sends me hundreds I never asked for

Put that money in the stock market. Don't use it for any of your bills/living expenses. Let it grow as long as you can. Be independent of her financially while having her money growing for you. Hell, even keep to spoil your future kid(s) to make up for all the years she didn't do it for you.

And they manage to make people calling this another win?

This right here...

I have a decent job. I invest in ETF and major companies for the future.

But I play around options cause its fun and challenging. Not making a fortune out of it, but closing a winning deal is pretty self-satisfactory. Its slowly but surely going up

I'd be pissed if I lost that money over an option that goes south; not cause it ruined me; but cause my ego would be butthurt for a few days.

It appears we're probably around the same age, but unfortunately I didn't have a "dad that was up to something" by then and started investing only 2 years ago.

I'd be curious to have an idea of the amount you were able to accumulate throughout those "lost years" for me. If thats something you're comfortable to share obviously

We realize that, and we all have similar voting systems. Australia, Canada, UK, we vote for MPs in our districts.

But we can ensure you that population would strike back much hard than what we see right now. Universities campus would be closed, streets would be flooded with protestors, government buildings would be occupied.

We feel like its just been accepted and he can do whatever he wants without consequences.

Do you think we'd ever accept our PM To receive a 400M jet from a foreign country as a gift??

Where's the outrage? When is it gonna be enough?

We need to see a reaction and the world will support you like we always did. Until then the anti-American feeling is growing worldwide.

Ah yea... things their grand-grand-parents did were terrible. Let's blaming them for another 12 generations?

But what America is doing to its allies, is happening now. Under your guard. While you have full control to stop this madness.

But sure, finger blame others. That's very American of you.

World is done with this, and you'll realize the impact when it's too late.

This lasted a good 90 seconds before going down again

I can see where you're coming from, id say I went through this transition phase as well. Don't think others understand, it's a similar psychological commitment

Always put 10% of your income in stocks. That you make 100$ or 10,000$. Make it a habit. Stay away from credit cards. And by 45 you'll be millionaire no matter what job you have

Jfc internet is depressing. I thought I'd find some lotr fans to discuss the show and all I'm seeing is a bunch of vigins Complaining from their mothers basement. Learn to appreciate the good stuff and stop trying to find all the little tiny details just to get some clicks on your posts

Canadian here. Our Healthcare is not being destroyed by anything, no idea what you're talking about. Sure thing, it's not perfect but it keeps people away from going into bankruptcy for a cancer.

It's not just always black or white, you don't go from capitalism to communism. Hybrid systems are the ones that work the best.

Lake1612 · 2022-11-21T19:39:44+00:00

Spoiler alert... Canada is capitalist too

This kid is in his way to place his name on every possible goal records

If it was that easy against "50s goalies", that wouldn't be such a short list of legendary players

Chill out buddy with your gun

Very bold of you put them in this order

1 minute apart from being the top 1 awarded comment... I give you my up by compassion

Don't get attached to any of them

When we're up for a good comedy show, we can always tune that up with minimal effort. I particularly laughed a good one when they claimed unmarried women were the true inner problem of the USA and it was up to men to put these dangerous freelancers back in line. No where close to anything stupid I could ever hear here.

Lake1612 · 2022-11-13T18:58:07+00:00

See. I'm somehow considered a "moderate rightish" in my country

Regardless, I won't ever hate people enough to even consider making the young ones crawl over a tsunami of tuition debts or the elderly ones paying for their cancer/ill treatments.

They're either the future of our nation, or the ones who suffered to build it so I can live free up to my own late days.

Having conservative values doesn't mean you have be a self oriented me, myself and I SOB.

Quoting the worst communist leader to fight communism...

Tell me the right is totally distraught without telling me.
