It's uh, a pretty rapid accumulation of children through a process that most places in the world is excruciatingly slow to progress through to be judged eligible.

Hungry Computer posted:There's a couple updates to this, although the first was deleted. He seemingly got away with it and naturally decided to keep digging. This is either typed one-handed, or he's the biggest idiot in the world. Why leave a single hair on it if you can tell that it's been tampered with by, you know, WATCHING the recording? You don't need the hair for that. All the SIL has to do is ask her sister why the hidden camera pen was in the bathroom while she was taking the shower. Just the question would be enough to raise suspicion. Quit leaving your illegal revenge porn camera in the bathroom on purpose, idiot Edit: Can't wait for the sister to ask the guy if he liked the latest recording so that he leaves it on for the third shower.

Totally written one handed, but I'm pretty sure the guy wrote that he turned it off when he put it back so if he got called out on it this time he'd be able to shrug and say "oh it's not even on." I liked the checking for hemmeroids strategy better.

Just lol at subsidized girlfriend. 25k in credit card debt she hasn't been able to pay down despite nearly her entire life being subsidized. I've known people like this, grew up middle class with parents who paid for their everything and never learned to budget or even understand money in any way. No matter how much money you give them they will always be in debt. They always live just a little beyond their means since they have no concept of what their means are. When they're struggling with a lovely 30k a year job they'll be 20k in debt. Give them a 100k a year job and now they're 50k in debt. They get a 300k inheritance and they just buy a bunch of poo poo instead of paying their debts off and since they bought a bigger house and a new car and a boat which all require upkeep they didn't budget for they're now 100k in debt. They're always just totally confused by it all too, it's just so gosh darn hard to deal with finance stuff!\ The worst part is they never act like its their own fault and use their debt to demand sympathy and help from others. Constantly dropping little woe is me comments about their finances or requests for friends to cover costs of group activities. And again, no matter how much help they get they will always forever be in debt and they never have the slightest understanding why.

It took me a few years to figure out what to do about the calls from bill collectors and I tend to overspend when I get depressed. I'm still prone to mismanaging my finances and I have to track every penny with several spreadsheets to keep myself in line. I just manage to catch myself before things can get detrimental. I've been good for the last seven years and the last negative mark falls off of my credit report next summer. So yeah I guess I fixed it but it takes an overabundance of effort.

I was always totally shocked at how this fairly rich girl I knew was constantly in financial woe is me mode. When out for dinner she'd never order extravagant things and she didn't really eat and drink out a lot unlike a lot of my friends who probably spend like 1k a month on that. Like I mentioned she'd always pull the "guys I just can't afford to pitch in evenly for the group trip this year... I can't come" and wait for everyone to offer to cover her share. I knew she had a lot of hobbies but they all were things that were generally low cost hobbies. She did photography for fun but already had a few cameras. She was super into a variety of dances, but other than some outfits and shoes that's not a super expensive hobby. She painted, which I know canvas and art supplies can be expensive but she actually did a side business painting for clients that turned a profit. Her parents were rich and she married money too. So how, HOW was she constantly so hard up??? Finally found out from friends closer with her the sort of poo poo that was going on. -Was constantly buying incredibly expensive photography equipment, always new never 2nd hand. Thought with just the right cameras and lenses she could make money at it so would sink like 10k in a year on photography stuff. -Had like 50+ extremely expensive dance outfits and bought new ones nearly monthly, would often get them extensively tailored and modified. Thousands a year spent on this. -Outright bought a dance studio. Why rent some dance studio space you use once or twice a week when you can buy the studio... and then take over its lease which is far more than what you were paying to rent time before. Apparently this HAD to be done because her schedule was unpredictable so she needed a studio space ready to go 24/7 and the studio she liked near her was going to shut down so she offered to buy it without even asking about what the lease was or what the costs would be. -Her husband considered himself a pro house-flipping and real-estate guru. They somehow consistently lost money flipping in Vancouver 2008-2015 when it was impossible to lose money. Instead of buying dumps and fixing them up they bought "only the best" properties that had already been extensively renovated then expected to make hundreds of thousands selling it again only a year later. They did make more money than they paid for, but not enough to cover the soft costs and upkeep. -They didn't understand zoning was a thing and bought a property with the idea of building container houses on it. They also didn't know anything about construction costs or technology or that container houses are an awful fad. -Somehow would do everything the most expensive or least efficient way possible. If there was a way to flip a house without paying much in taxes and a way of doing it at a massive tax hit, they'd do the latter. They'd seemingly purposefully structure their debt to be at the highest possible interest rates. Just constantly engineering everything the worst possible way. -Refused to take any advice or research things properly. They were experts and you can only succeed in life by taking risks and being bold. For example the container house obsession was launched by them seeing a 5 min youtube video and that was enough for them. They also were very secretive about their plans because they didn't want to hear naysayers or get unsolicited advice. But don't worry, they're doing great because every few years they'd go to one of their parents begging for a bailout because they're just poor smol beans who don't understand money and if they don't get a bailout they might lose their house. I don't really see them anymore but I'm sure they're still in debt somehow.

well yeah, container homes are the same trend as tiny homes or van living except instead of aesthetically presenting like a surf hobo or aesthetically presenting like a twee forest hermit, you want to aesthetically present as someone who would build their home out of milk crates and scrap lumber if the drat tyrants down at the planning board weren't being brainwashed by the UN into enforcing made up ideas like "fire codes" all of this because people who read design blogs find singlewides too dismal, they'd rather live in a tow trailer or a heap of scrap metal

Latching on to the Dance Studio example, I have an acquaintance who is on her fourth studio right now, because she lost no personal money when each one went under, and knows where to go to for fundraising when it's time to buy a new one.
