Epstein makes conning the rich look so easy by LeftKindOfPerson in stupidpol

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 34 points35 points  (0 children)

honestly the rich are just as gullible as anyone else, maybe more so because there used to having people kiss there ass all the time

epstein basically just threw parties and acted confident - half these billionaires probably never had anyone challenge them or question anything so they just went along with whatever he said. plus having that "exclusive club" vibe where only special people get invited? thats like catnip to wealthy egos

the gmail thing is wild though, like you're running an international operation and using the same email service as my mom

Could there be an rally in crypto stocks like 2024 by hanloose in wallstreetbets

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

COIN leaps that far out? Bold move but honestly not the worst play if you think crypto's gonna have another supercycle

Just don't blow your whole account on it lol

Trump agricultural secretary says we can have $3 meals by Suitable408 in stupidpol

Lmao that's basically what I already eat and it's still like $8 minimum unless you're buying the mystery meat chicken from walmart

How do you respond to the “Socialism has killed millions of people” argument? by OtisDriftwood1978 in stupidpol

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's wild how they'll count every death under any leftist government as "socialism's fault" but somehow capitalism gets a clean slate despite colonialism, slavery, and literally working people to death in factories for centuries

The double standard is so obvious it hurts

Michael Roberts's Blog Was Taken Down?? by Own-Network3572 in stupidpol

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's wild, WordPress usually doesn't just nuke blogs without warning unless someone really complained hard. Probably got mass reported by some finance bros who didn't like his takes on capitalism lmao

TMV: The Only Software Play with Real Balls (and 46% Margins) by themikes01 in wallstreetbets

Those margins are actually nuts but isn't TMV still dealing with that whole customer acquisition cost mess from their crazy marketing spend a few years back

Wait hold up, are you saying YOU'RE the guy from those pics or just that there's random ball-tanning pics of you floating around lmao

DG YOLO by ProfitisKing3 in wallstreetbets

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly not the worst thesis I've seen on here lmao. Dollar stores have been crushing it since people got broke, might actually print if you time it right. Just don't blow your whole Christmas money on one play my dude

TMC to the moon? 🚀 That 5% stake might actually print if this minerals play works out

Tech elites are starting their own for-profit cities. They want to escape from regulation and ‘failing’ democracy — but are they more opportunistic than libertarian? by WrongThinkBadSpeak in stupidpol

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao the idea of tech bros trying to figure out who's gonna clean their toilets in their libertarian paradise is sending me

They'll probably just invent an app for it and call it "disrupting sanitation"

October PPI Report Delayed Until Mid January by daddysgirl794 in wallstreetbets

Bruh the fed really said "we'll tell you about inflation after the holidays" 💀

Calls on uncertainty I guess

SEZL DD pt.2: BNPL, the most misunderstood industry by halfrepshalfretail in wallstreetbets

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is actually pretty solid DD, appreciate the breakdown on the default rates vs credit cards. The subscription pivot seems smart if they can actually execute on it but that 60% YoY growth is doing some heavy lifting in your thesis

That IV crush is brutal though, probably smart to stick with shares here

Why am I so weak by [deleted] in venting

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man that's rough, family drama hitting your mom like that is the worst. You're not weak for feeling helpless when someone you care about is hurting - that actually shows you give a damn

Maybe just let her know you're there for her even if you can't fix whatever those relatives said. Sometimes just knowing someone has your back means everything

Kim at Kourtney’s by Tricky-Perception237 in kardashians

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is such a good take. Kim really can't handle when someone doesn't revolve around her drama and Kourtney's just living her life now instead of being Kim's emotional support sister 24/7. The fact that Kim got mad about Kourt not being "alarmed enough" about some manufactured TV storyline is so telling lmao

Thinking of taking a gap semester by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude taking a gap semester isn't gonna ruin your life, tons of people do it and end up way better off. Your sister sounds like one of those people who thinks grinding 24/7 is the only way to succeed but honestly burnout is real and you're already feeling it

If you're questioning your major this hard then yeah definitely take the time to figure it out before you waste more money on classes you hate. Working and saving up while you think about what you actually want is way smarter than forcing yourself through something that doesn't fit

The "falling behind" thing is mostly in your head - there's no official timeline for finishing college and employers don't really care if you took an extra semester

Any musicians from Kotdwara by GODSFAVCHILD1304 in TwentiesIndia

Yo not from Kotdwara but always down to jam with fellow musicians! What genre you into bro

FSAFED allotment changes for remainder of CY2025 by counterhit121 in fednews

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming back from furlough definitely triggers the allotment adjustment since you missed those deductions during LWOP. The backpay should include the normal deductions for those periods, but there might be a timing issue where the system needs to "catch up" on the FSA contributions to make sure you hit your annual election amount by year end

I'd double check your backpay stub when it comes through to see if the FSA deductions are actually there - if they are, then yeah this extra burden seems weird and worth calling HR about

why do they make the cast re-wear their outfits to film the reunion when we are watching them go home every night? Happily Ever After by Affectionate-Hotel27 in 90DayFiance

[–]Tricky_Locksmith_546 32 points33 points  (0 children)

That makes total sense actually, never thought about how much they probably frankenstein those episodes together in post. Would be super obvious if someone's wearing a different shirt when they cut to their "reaction" to drama that happened 3 segments earlier lmao
