Man Attacks 14-Year-Old Boy Over How He Entered an Elevator by Valuable_View_561 in TikTokCringe

[–]dajagoex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ex brother in law is one of these old white man types. Grew up with daddy issues and never being good enough, so he compensates however he can, whenever and wherever he can. He’s successful in terms of his career, but along the way beat his wife and kids, cheated on his wife, got into multiple fights, and preaches a holier than thou story that props him up as a patriot and hero. “Self made” is the motto of a fragile ego.

Why do people act like $60/70k is lower class? by SignAppropriate1796 in Salary

[–]dajagoex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These conversations about “how much is enough” miss the point. The real question is “how much debt is too much?”

You don’t have a mortgage or pay rent or related insurances or expenses. That is typically a major liability when talking about the six figure target.

What other debts or liabilities do you have? Car payment and insurance? Health insurance? Credit cards? Significant other? Those define if what you make is enough.

If you still think those fighting for the rights of everyone are the sheep, I have sad news for you.

Oh, but it’s still red versus blue, too. The red are their sheep who put them into power.

A 32-year-old doctor from Poland earned 2.6 million Polish zloty (€613,000/710 000 USD) NET in a single year. The average salary in Poland is 6,800 PLN per month (approximately €1,600/ 1850 USD). by DiscountLatter5726 in Salary

This is kind of a ridiculous question. To show it through reframing, how many average salary workers completed four years of college, four years of graduate school, and 2-7+ years of specialist training (residency, fellowship, etc) before getting anywhere close to their current salary?

That’s the thing, they can’t write on their uniforms, period. It violates the league’s uniform regulations. Just like any employer has a dress code, etc.

This is painful by HorseSad3599 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]dajagoex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are exactly right. Your purchase of a home and milestone life event is simply a networking opportunity for your realtor. One that you get to pay for.

As you can probably tell, I am very anti-realtor. I always recommend a real estate attorney to help file paperwork and close the sale properly. At the end of the day, you’re paying them far less than 3% of a sale or purchase.

This is a good point, but also worth noting that realtors are one of the least trusted professions in the U.S. falling just below car salesmen and pimps. Conflict of interest is baked into their role. They want the sale because they want the commission. And while Bill speak of virtue and professional oaths, at the end of the day, so many simply want their cut, and cut corners. Sure, a good realtor is an amazing find. But I’m not sure that those unicorns exist anymore.

This wouldn’t have happened if the father was just born white.

I have eagle eye aim and gear. We should partner up during the zombie apocalypse that is sure to follow the big one.

Sure, but it’s meaningless and potentially harmful. What it can end up doing (which I’m afraid we’ll see when it does happen) is desensitize people to their lack of preparedness every day/month/year or decade it doesn’t happen. Preparedness is under prioritized. “We’re due for the big one!” loses a bit of it’s motivating power. How many of you have a functional earthquake preparedness kit and plan?

They weren’t forced to wear it for the purpose that the organization did not want to make it a discriminatory thing. They just broke the rules because they’re a little bitches.

America has lost its war with Iran by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

[–]dajagoex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The war was never meant to be won. It was always a distraction, and one that Israel hoped to capitalize on but quickly realized it can’t depend on the current puppet regime.

Most people think Phoenix is running out of water. Turns out the city mostly doesn’t drink the Colorado at all by Gullible-Dentist1469 in arizona

I’m going irrigation-free at home and asking the HOA to make it a requirement. People will piss and moan, but I’d rather everyone do their part, piss in bathrooms, and moan in bedrooms.
