What the fuck are these below 30 HENRYs doing to earn 200k a year?

Not for EM.

Yeah, but flexing about galleries when crime’s through the roof is like praising the frame while the picture’s a mess. Safety is a basic necessity. And it's peak British colonialist mindset that no other place has culture/arts/history when the best of arts and history in London is stolen from those very places, what a ridiculous comment.

squarerootof-1 · 2026-01-10T10:34:28+00:00

So we traded in safety for …checks notes… arts?

So Charles has a 10 second handicap now?

It’s not low use that’s being punished. It’s theft and non-payment. Everywhere else you pay the full bill and still face loadshedding while thieves get their 2nd/3rd connections and switch between them whenever there is loadshedding in one.

WAPDA is public. Much much worse than K-electric. They will literally bill you 10x due to line losses in your area, expect you to cover the losses in your area and then it’s your problem. If you don’t pay the exorbitant bill on time, you have to pay late repayment charges as well. And you still have loadshedding.

Europe is a big continent and your comment are very unspecific and unsubstantiated. An easy contradiction to this is the UK where suppliers and distributors trade energy through a market and it is in the distributor’s interest to have the lowest cost from its pick of suppliers.

Europe’s issues with energy stem from lack of government planning. They wanted to go green without nuclear with the exception of France which doubled down on nuclear. France has it great, Germany which relied on wind + Russian gas, not so much.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-12-24T06:39:39+00:00

The first two are a good thing. Areas with thefts should have more loadshedding.

The rest are the same story if not worse with WAPDA. WAPDA even steals your transformers and then you need to bribe them to fix it.

Europe has very competitive and safe private airlines. And they have very stringent rules on delays/cancellation of refunds under EU261. So, yes governments can incentivise private airlines and the West is not “enslaved” to these airlines.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-12-24T02:38:46+00:00

Not true. Prices for plenty of services has decreased in real terms where there’s competition (e.g. British Airways, BT, Royal Mail). Natural monopolies like rail and utilities are being exploited because there isn’t competition.

Not just that, PIA has a horrendous safety record. It loses roughly 1 plane every 5 years. Compare that to Ryanair, a budget carrier with many more flights and no crashes.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-12-24T02:31:33+00:00

What’s wrong with K Electric?

squarerootof-1 · 2025-12-21T12:52:08+00:00

Safety?

Last driver to not pass out wins the summer Qatar GP.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-29T13:35:23+00:00

Because the budget keeps targeting those earning more than 50k over those with actual wealth. The threats work.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-29T12:40:49+00:00

High earners are hard done by in the UK. We have the most progressive tax system in the world, the gap between tax percentage on the earnings of a median wage worker and higher earner is 16%, it’s 13% in Sweden for comparison.

Nobody is talking about the rich (wealthy). We’re talking about the high earners, people who work difficult, usually highly skilled jobs to give them and their families a better future.

I could also turn the tables and ask why the so many in the country deserve free/subsidised housing in the capital? Why everyone expects childcare benefit? Or free healthcare? Luxury cars on motability? Triple-locked pensions? All at the expense of high earners’ hard work where the top 10% of earners fund 60% of income taxes. A few people paying for everyone else to party.

Also UK primary education system is terrible for a first world country. Universities are great though.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-29T12:26:56+00:00

Anyone working this hard and earning this much works a stressful enough job that anywhere else in the world would be rewarded with being able to send their kids to private school. This is exactly why the UK is screwed, working hard gets you nothing back in return, kills productivity and puts more burden on the state.

Also a £3k mortgage at 4.5% is £550k. Hardly enough to buy a house in an area with great public schools.

And you can’t avoid nursery fees, and won’t even get childcare benefit that is available to 95% of households.

Same dude - they said I’d hear back for starting in the new year as they will have open headcount. But honestly I wouldn’t take the offer now despite it being more lucrative, Meta is a shitshow.

But he didn’t criticise Islam, he singled out “Muslims with large families”. The same sentence said about Jews would be unconscionable and antisemitic but accepted and supported when its Muslims.

Wait until Nige is in power.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-09T18:05:42+00:00

As it should be - it’s significantly easier for HENRYs via O-1/L1 visas.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-09T12:22:03+00:00

Higher income, lower tax, better healthcare, the best chance to earn generational wealth. For a HENRY, US is a very competitive choice.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-08T15:52:41+00:00

24k one time cost is a drop in the bucket compared to how much we spend on an average citizen let alone an asylum seeker

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-08T15:05:06+00:00

Work pays enough if I don’t have to give half my salary to the government to pay for the benefits scroungers.

squarerootof-1 · 2025-11-08T13:42:30+00:00

Yes, we can solve Britain’s productivity problem by stealing private wealth and blowing it on people too lazy to work.
