Convincing a whole bunch of suckers that mass produced luxury goods were an "investment" was quite a good trick. My headline would have been: First beanie babies, now rolexes

In my last meeting with Rheinmetall people the watches any one of them were wearing must have cost $20k. It was obscene. Also, wtf shouldn't they have German watches?

I don't know personally folks who carked it, but there is a lot of sequalae in my net friend groups which is why I am so cautious about it, because that poo poo will ruin my life in ways that may well be the end of it.

It's a reverse mortgage but for equity loans ??? House worth dumb money, scammer gets a lein for 30% of dumb. House value goes down, your lein is still for $dumb, if yours House sells for less than $dumb, don't YOU lose the money equal to the difference ? Can a lein be for more than the home's value ? This all sounds terrible and I hope they fail

StrugglingHoneybun posted:It's a reverse mortgage but for equity loans ??? They're also committing blatant fraud since, by definition, it's debt if there's a lien on the property (since equity would have to no right to slap a lien).

There's utility in something like a diver's watch or a solar quartz watch but you still shouldn't need five figures to tell the time

Expensive watches are just jewelry for men who can't admit they want to wear jewelry. The time-telling is beside the point.

Chamale posted:I tried to buy a new phone recently. New, not refurbished, not restored, not "new in box" condition. The used Samsung phone I bought earlier this year failed completely for no apparent reason, so I wanted something brand new with a warranty. Amazon made it impossible - no matter what search filters I used, it kept trying to point me to a used phone reseller. Eventually I went to Motorola's website, sorted by the largest discount, and bought the first one on the list. It's great. Yeah for expensive electronics I go to the manufacturer's website. Using Amazon less and less these days.

The time-telling is beside the point. all the goons going "wtf rich people pay a million dollars to tell the time??!?" are completely missing the point and have terminal value brain. it's completely irrelevant. it's just simple status symbol like a giant diamond ring to show off wealth.
