Envying the rich and privileged will sour God's eyes on you....they have it coming. Dont worry yourself. The riches in the kingdom outweigh the riches in the physical

Record Holiday spending, paying 1k car payments per vehicle, living in 1 million dollar houses, spending 10 dollars on ground beef, taking international trips every quarter. I guess I got left out lol.



And traveling ALL of the time and sitting in High Class seats.

It's insane. I didn't fly in a plane until I was 17, I grew up upper Middle class. You just didn't have to travel and spend that money all of the time.

A bit hyperbolic, but I get your point.

Anything more than $550 just seems high.

My daddy used to say the middle class keep the rich man rich and the poor man fed.

It's not at all. Do the math on a 50k car (Telluride) with 40k financed after $10k trade in. Think interest rates are around 7% for new cars right now on average with excellent credit.

That's ~$800 a month.

I am not going to argue with you. It is not important to this thread.

You're talking to the wrong person buddy. Didn't ask for it and don't need it. I do like laughing at it though.


What’s interesting to me is not one single person asked me how.

Don’t you think even one single person might know something you don’t?

Why would you laugh? You don’t know what I do. That’s like meeting Jeff Bezos and not interested in how he makes money (if you didn’t know his background). Obviously I’m not a billionaire.

You laugh because why? You don’t know what I do so you laugh? Why?

Did you just compare yourself to Jeff Bezos?

You claim to be a retired attorney, but do you want to change that this week?

Maybe you should learn a little bit about car repairs. It’s not hard. Just takes a little effort.

It’s an analogy. I said I’m not a billionaire. Could have been an actor. Ok. Brad Pitt. How’s that?

Dingo, seems like most of what you do is just insult people. No counter arguments or information you can bring to the table.

It’s basically just “You’re dumb”. That’s not a valid counter point.

Nah, just you and your ilk. And they aren’t insults, just observations

There’s no counter argument to a completely illogical original point. As an attorney you should understand that. Sometimes the most effective way to get someone to back themselves into a corner and look like an idiot is to let them keep talking

Here’s an example. Just fixed a house heater. Paid $180 for the control board and installed. How much would an HVAC guy have charged me for parts and labor?

Watched 5 or 6 YouTube videos on how gas fired heaters work. They all work the same.

Dingo you’re just hopeless.

And I do think you’re probably smart being you are a CPA. But you really don’t bring anything to the conversation and I really want you too. But it mostly just insults. That’s why you get downvoted so much.
