The lessons of Zimbabwe, South Africa and Venezuela (along with numerous 20th century precedences) shows that just because your name is on an account or on a piece of property, doesn't mean you own it unless you and your family can defend it; as a corollary, If you are a highly productive person, it is your responsibility to raise highly productive next generation and teach them how to shoot vermin. Otherwise, your productivity and accumulated wealth would be like leaving food out in the open all over the house (instead putting them in solid containers): rewarding and inducing rat and roach infestation.

Hate to say it but more and more kids are becoming like Eric Cartman (of South Park), even from productive households.

It's not just the cars. People spend money on almost everything they cannot afford. Homes, cars, vacations, entertainment etc. Life is good when you have a credit card.
As they say....."People buy things they cannot afford, with money they don't have, to impress people they don't like"

Credit cards are the devil to most people. They're my dream come true. I won't pay for a domestic or North American international flight in my life again. That includes the wife and 2 kids. I will NOT pay interest either. Paid off every month. Credit card companies hate me and my wife bigly.

WookieMan says

I believe that that's using a credit card as a charge card.

True. Either way, I'm getting $5-7k a year depending on where I'm going and how often. Just for using the card. Not a ton of money, but when you figure it's tax free the true value is closer to $10-12k based on my federal & state taxes. I ain't complaining.

Rin says

In other words, he's pulled from his potential eggs nest, to enjoy himself today.

Missed this originally. I assume you'd agree with this, but if you don't enjoy yourself today, when will you?

If the dude legit doesn't have money to retire at or around SS age, then sure, that's fucked up. At the end of the day though we all die and it doesn't really matter. Have fun while you're doing this as much as you can. We've got multi-millionaire, famous people dropping like flies to suicide. Enjoy what you have, cause money doesn't always make it better.

Rin says

Eventually, sex robots will replace hoes altogether.

I find this utterly impossible. Robots will replace the dudes that were too chicken shit to get hoes, girlfriends, wives, etc. or didn't have the money. These guys weren't going to the real hoes in the first place. Whether you marry one or pay one, a real woman cannot be replaced by a robot in my opinion.

Yup. That's the way to do it. I have:
1. Credit card....5% rebate on groceries and gas.
2. Costco Visa...2% rebate from Costco purchases. 3% travel. 3% restaurants.
3. Mastercard.....2% rebate on everything, towards a car purchase.
4. Credit Card.....0% interest on $20,000 for 16 months.
Monthly credit card purchases are between $5,000 to $10,000. Includes frequent travel.
I love my credit card rebates, but still hate the banks. :)

He's right Rin. Sex robots are not a substitute for a real, wet, fully aroused pussy on the verge of an orgasm. Sex robots are just masturbation.

It can still be hoes for sure. A robot cannot replace even a hoe hookup or a casual hookup in the same way though. Each session is different. Not sure how even the most advanced robot can accomplish that.

@Strategist going all 50 shades on us. Good stuff.

Rin says

Hate to say it but more and more kids are becoming like Eric Cartman (of South Park), even from productive households.

That's usually the result of having only 1 child and lacking manly father figure in the child's life. Kids growing up with proper father figures and siblings (especially those with younger siblings) turn out quite well.

joshuatrio says

My friend just raided his and his wife's 401k and inheritance from parents, and bought a house with shady financing and a $4600/mo payment, plus school loans, and two $500/mo car payments.

His kids are 12, 10 and 6.

Damn that sounds irresponsible. I’m guessing he makes a 6 digit salary.

It also means all the promises of Diversity don't mean shit. If you become the minority and give up power, you're doomed.

IHLlary has destroyed dozens of Teslas using them to recharge her knobby vibrators while on the road. However, the vibrators could do 0-60 in 0.5 seconds.

Many moons ago, Bill Gates dreamed of a PC per household. My dream is a realistic sex robot for every man.

$90k/yr. His wife earns slightly less than him. She told him to get a second job.

Rin says

I have a friend who drives a Tesla ... I say 'so what?!'

I'd say, if it doesn't bother you on some level, you wouldn't write about it. And also, you wouldn't need to tell us that you ride around in limos. Just sayin'.

Rin says

Rin, I hear you about the whole bot thing, but will it feel the same? Smell the same? I imagine it could be like having sex with an appliance which doesn't sound exciting.

joshuatrio says

wtf? $90,000 a year?

That guy is insane to have that type of monthly expense on that salary.

Double that w his wife's. Still pushing it, but lower income people are stretching more.

I know late 20 early 30 somethings in Chicago who make 50k/yr, and live in 2200/month apartments. Ya know, cause being cool is worth eating ramen into your 30's

Rin,

what did you think of this video from TGS 2018 in Japan?

A lot of these people also vote for Democrats and higher taxation as well.

This whole thing is about the so-called hedonic threadmill where buying that { Tesla, Porsche, Maserati, etc } wears itself out after a very short period of time.

In the end, he goes right back to his wage slave lifestyle, only gaining a momentary lapse of joy in spinning around in a noiseless car which is the talk of the EV world!

On the other foot, my livery service allows me to enjoy those Ipswich clams with a drink, while being driven in comfort, listening to a lecture or reading a book. At the same time, while I'm up north, I don't have to deal with the snow in Montreal, as my driver, Ives Gauthier (OK, that was a stereotype of a Quebecois name) takes me directly from the airport to hotel room w/ little contact with the snow. And in Boston, I don't have to deal with the endless gridlock while I'm at home. These are all functional and utilitarian purposes which yes, does make me happy. And since it's expensed, it doesn't affect my bottom line.

This is what the Rin-Wah way is suppose to be ...



Enjoy the sites and sensations ...

Actually, most male sex toys prior to RealDoll were like appliances. And thus, in many ppl's heads, that's the common long term perception. And sure, in 2020, it'll still be crude but that's a given with a new technology. But what about 2030 & beyond? Steve Jobs made computing fun and easy for the average non-techie consumer. For sex robots, a new Jobs will do the same.

It's real. You can tell by the billow of blue smoke that oozes through the firewall.

OK, but why the misspelling of Cutlass and, for that matter, Shostakovich? Are you trying to hide your towering intellect from the zombies who want to feast on your oversized brain? Or is this part of the disinformation campaign to fool the Google?

I just checked my dividend earnings statement. This year, I came close to clearing $240K in dividend income alone. The amount of actual work needed for that income stream was nearly ~0% of my time, half of which is tax deferred, and I'd used business expenses to offset the other stuff, and I use my consulting earnings to pay the additional taxes.

Plus, I have no cap gain losses as I'd eliminated the high debt blue chips in late August prior to the sell off.

Ok, so what's the purpose of stating the above?

I can easily buy a Tesla or a Porsche or even a Lamborghini, if I really wanted to ... in cash.

And why don't I do that?

Because by re-investing my dividends into blue chips ... in a decade's time, I'll have an income stream of over $400K since blue chips raise dividends, even by a meager amount on a periodic basis, along with the compounding effect.

Now, if I wanted to go for a joyride, I can plunk down the cash for a weekend spin in a luxury sport cars for a grand plus fees.

And really, that's all that I'd want because in reality, I enjoy being driven around by my driver, instead being some gearhead, in love with his cars. Vehicles are for transportation.
