Isn't unravelling all of the biased judgements we're making about other people's BWM choices part of the fun for this thread?ohgodwhat posted:Today I learned it's BWL to imply that a woman has any culpability for anything How clever of you and exciting for me that you feel safe enough to post that piece of unhelpful passive aggressive tripe.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Her post history also indicates that: Wow, you actually went really deep into their post history. I'm pretty numb to the idea of buying a car that is way out of a reasonable budget proportional to a person's net income. At this point it's even weirder when someone doesn't do that.

Tiny Brontosaurus posted:BWM IRL: I just got back from a coffee shop where two men, one middle aged and one young, were openly colluding on some kind of sports gambling scheme involving bitcoin and IP blockers and making numerous ten dollar bets to hide something from the bookies. If anybody knows more about gambling I'd love to hear speculation about what the hell they were trying to pull. Seems like they are trying to anonymously and artificially inflate the odds for a big payout.

Solice Kirsk posted:So serious question here. How many people would be interested in doing a sort of BWM themed "Advice" book where we all take a specific chapter (investing, day trading, mortgages, etc) and write just the worst ideas we have about them and try to get it published by a reputable publisher under a pen name? Make sure you work in how to build up your TRUCK EQUITY.

19 o'clock posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwD6SCAENx4 I get that he is deducting a lot of capital expenses for his business which seems legal, but can someone explain how he thinks he can deduct his divorce fees and mortgage? He stated in his video that he deducted his divorce because his divorce settlement involved sharing business assets with his ex-wife? WHAT? And since he films in his house, he can deduct the whole mortgage? WHAT? I guess you can deduct some of your mortgage if you have a space dedicated to your work, but.. WHAT?

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Dear lord, how is "my ____ wants me to take the loan out and have it in their name" so common in these posts? Have any of you been asked this by family? I seriously can't even imagine it. When I was 16 my mother made me take an auto loan (which she cosigned) to purchase her friend's car (that her friend could no longer afford) to sell to my brother (he made the payments on the car loan every month). I haven't spoken to my mother since moving out. edit: Actually, I'm not sure if my step dad actually cosigned it. My mother has always had such awful credit so my adult brain thinks it is very strange that she would be cosigning a loan for me. CmdrRiker fucked around with this message at 02:36 on Aug 28, 2018 |

Yeah, you're essentially starting down the path of starting some sort of small business with your family. Whether a family real estate business or family hedge fund, I'm not sure.

Enos Cabell posted:Dude is def insane, but I'd bet probably 80% of people in the US at least live in debt from 18 (or earlier) to the grave. Vox Nihili posted:I mean there's certainly a distinction to be drawn between someone technically "in debt" but managing it fine (pretty much everyone has a loan, mortgage, etc.) and someone struggling with crippling debt and making it worse. My criticism was more about the psychological implications of being in major debt but still feeling entitled to move beyond a "starter home." I might be reading too much into what "starter home" means to them, but it definitely feels as though he thinks he will be able to afford a "better home" in the near future.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Someone at my office yesterday pulled a GWM by being BWM. "I'm going to shove as much money into pre tax retirement accounts to lower my income tax margin and contribute less to gov't retirement plans that will disappear in a few decades." Like.. that's good but why would you think about it like that?

Hyrax Attack! posted:Some of my older coworkers are very very lucky the company auto-enrolls everyone in a 401k plan that auto-increases their annual contributions by 1% of their pay each year (up to 20%). It’s a good plan with tiny fees and generous company contributions based on how much you are putting in. So contributing to pre tax retirement accounts because it lowers taxable income is not odd because people are more likely to not think about contributing to their pre tax retirement accounts at all? I can't follow any of this to its logical conclusion.

CornHolio posted:Can that be harassment? Sleazy yes, but I thought for something to be harassment he had to be told to stop, and then continue anyway. Did you read the same thing that I just read? "I told her that with a body like hers, I'm surprised she doesn't have 10 because I sure would give her 10 and I laughed" Let's go over this again. He is physically checking her out and making lewd comments about her body. Then he is saying that he is surprised that she doesn't have more sex with her husband and if he were her husband than he would have so much sex with her that it would cause her to always be pregnant and having babies. That's going a little far. It is very surprising that more alarm bells are not ringing. Krispy Wafer posted:There's so much that's not being told in that story. If this is a genuine and factual recount of what happened, then it is completely reasonable that you would fire someone for described sexual harassment. Especially with how completely unaware of he is both during and after the events transpired. Phanatic posted:There's "harassment" as a crime under the law, which this almost certainly didn't rise to the level of, and there's "poo poo that can get you fired by a company that doesn't want to be associated with your creepy drunken antics." This is 100% harassment. If it is this hard for everyone to understand harassment, then would not want to be at a cocktail party with anyone on this page.

Krispy Wafer posted:If any of this is true then we're getting a sanitized version from him, so yes you're probably right in how serious this was. This was the most sympathetic he could make himself sound and he sounds horrible. Uh, actually it is very possible that this is not a sanitized version. This could very well be a real person experiencing real events that left them crying on reddit about how unfair their life has become because they kept innocently complimenting a woman. People really look past these situations of harassment with that much indifference. This is something that women frequently deal with. Men can really NOT understand exactly how cut and dry sexual harassment is and how serious the consequences are, as evidenced by this post.

Moneyball posted:I'm thinking of opening up a BFC Off-Topic/Derail thread, sort of in the same vein as whoever started the college tuition costs thread. I think it is reasonable to have organic reactions to socially controversial behaviors within the thread itself. And if that's too much to ask then my second argument is sexual harassment is essentially BWM because it is bad for employment and other potential revenue sources.
