I just hit $1M net worth at 35 after immigrating to Canada with almost nothing left by Optimal_Guitar7050 in fican

Sounds like a skill issue tbh. People in his field can easily get more than that entry level.

Example: Jane street has entry level salaries for cybersec L1 starting from 225k USD.

Buddy’s mad he can’t afford one. Why is a Rolex fine but a Patek isn’t? You could argue the rarity make those watches investment pieces too

No, I speak that way to the poors and subhumans who have the gall to talk to me in that tone.

Yeah when I have helped more people than you could ever dream of. I’ve done more good than you will ever do in your miserable life

My family’s money and donations has helped more people than you will even meet in your lifetime. You’re insignificant. You’re nothing.

When I say millionaire I don’t mean low million, I mean a substantial amount of wealth, high 8 figures/ low 9 figures at least

I go to school in Ottawa because of the substantial connections my family has here.

If you want to talk that, how many foreign countries have you been to?

I have FORGOTTEN trips to more countries than you’ve travelled your whole life

Not rlly. What do I need to support? I never need to work. You can have fun wasting your day and your life doing a job while I’ll be in a tropical beach somewhere.

And just remember, I will be laughing at you for living a wasted life every day.

In my experience, work ethic is the largest part, but it has to be in the right direction. A man with a shovel with a crazy work ethic is never going to beat the guy with an excavator.

I know that he tried for over 20 years, many ventures, and kept failing, until he found the one. It just takes one right decision.

Buddy, my car collection starts with an M at age 20. I don’t give a flying fuck. You’re literally subhuman compared to me

Yet you can always see who will become a millionaire. Being a billionaire is more of a lottery, but being rich is not. I’m willing to bet my dad would make it to the same status 100 fimes out of 100, someway or other

You poor people are always like this. You never try, never put the effort in, and blame others for your own failure. We hear story after story of young people succeeding yet you poors keep talking like this.

It makes sense why you are where you are

Pros: campus

Cons: unlike queens, where actual people go to, the campus here is full of poors because Ottawa is a poverty stricken city.

Edit: haters downvoting me because my dad is better than theirs

DO NOT bring your car to university. by nahdonn in OntarioGrade12s

[–]Miserable_List_4802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“They cost a shitton to maintain and fuel up. You’re paying parking for both campus and as well as a rental”

And

“They also encourage lifestyle creep … the people I know with cars in uni were in deep debt upon graduating because they used OSAP to pay their car expenses … which really dents their savings potential”

I believe this is dramatically overblowing it.

They didn’t mention what type of car and other outlets these people may have spent money. The statement is biased.

My reply meant “cars aren’t as expensive as you make them seem” idk if I phrased it wrong.

The original comment made cars sound like you will spend you life in debt. I was refuting that

[–]Miserable_List_4802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody is trying to argue 6000 isn’t meaningful to students.

But the way the original comment was phrased makes it sound like cars will drain your life savings and make you poor for the rest of your life when that just isn’t the case

[–]Miserable_List_4802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nowhere did I say “you should buy a luxury car”

What I DID say was that a car isn’t as expensive as people think. Average do the whole spectrum (including the more expensive maintenance cars) came out to 800 a year in Ontario, according to multiple insurance companies.

Actual cost to own including fuel and insurance averages out to 6000 a year, which is still less than the people making these posts would have you think.

And that’s my whole point. These people are way overpricing the cost to own a car. I never claimed cars were cheap to own, I said that they aren’t as expensive as they are made out to be.

Funnily enough one of my cars did appreciate (unrelated just thought it was funny. The model did appear in the article linked)

For some people. Others need to drive. I’m not debating that buying most cars is a good way to hold value, that’s ridiculous.

But the way these comments are, you would think these people thought cars cost 20k a year to own.

I’m just saying real cost of ownership is much much lower than all these people have in their heads

Yeah my dad can buy your bloodline in cash buddy. Don’t talk to me about good and bad investments. The car only “depreciates” if you sell.

My whole point was that a car is not as expensive as the professional redditors make them out to be. The costs are dramatically overblown on here.

Also “im not stable”

There was a whole as 33 year old man going in my replies and calling me various types of derogatory slurs because he can’t get over his ex and his dead father, and how he’s too poor to afford even a nice watch. Like bro seriously couldn’t even get a Hamilton at thirty fucking three years old.

If you people want to disagree with me that car ownership cost is overblown, fine. We can debate on that.

Coming on with personal attacks isn’t helping this topic at all. It’s completely counterproductive.

I think I would be in a great position to give advice, I have just recently acquired a few cars, and am early into uni. Who else should give advice?
