That's awesome. If they could afford that, then good for them. Now if they put it all on 4 different credit cards or took out a second mortgage to fund it because "You only get married once! Do it BIIIIG!"....then we can go to town on them.

I've always politely declined invitations from co-workers to their weddings unless we were actually friends outside of work. Sitting at a table with all your other coworkers surrounded by their family just feels weird to me. I don't think I'd even consider inviting any of my co-workers if I was getting married.

Eh, that's a tough one. From outside it's easy to say it's bad with money, but I can't fault someone for dropping a bunch of money on an animal they love. My buddy just spent $10k trying to keep his dog alive after it got bone cancer in it's leg. She lived through the surgeries, but died a few months later. It wasn't an official "sympathy dog" or anything like that, but he got her after he got back from Afghanistan and she was with him through his divorce and all sorts of stuff. He could afford that though. The big problem with the other dude is he's gonna have to pay it off for years and that's gonna remind him of his animal dying every month.

I've got some bad news about human nature then. Making seashell jewelry would have been seen as a tremendous luxury to a hunter/gatherer society. Having extra time to twiddle away at something to make themselves pretty vs feeding themselves could be incomprehensible to someone in that situation. Kings and queens have spent royal fortunes on incredibly stupid poo poo all through history, be it searching for mythical past civilizations or building an entire room out of amber. A modern nation spent billions upon billions to put people on the moon (as neat as that is) mostly to piss off another country. Those who have, waste and those who don't wish they could. That's the way it's been and if humans haven't evolved away from it yet I don't think we ever will.

If they had shellfish allergies then it made them the bravest of hunters. Epipens didn't really exist back then. Well, they did, but the only firm providing them were outside of paleoman's HMO so who could afford them?

Funnily enough, my roommates and I just found out we haven't been paying for electricity for this past year. We all thought one of the others was paying for it. So that's gonna be a fun $1500 bill to take care of. We haven't even been getting any letters or anything either. And the landlord sure as hell isn't paying it. It's really weird.

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?

Sounds like the market is ripe for the invention of an alcohol in solid form, that becomes liquid in the presence of ice and Diet Coke, that can be formed into the shape of a deflated beach ball. Why has no one thought of this before?

We have the "Tamale Guy" on the westside of Chicago. Dude goes from bar to bar selling tamales out of his coolers at $1 a shot or a bag of them for $5. All home made and delicious. There's even an app to track where he's at through the night (though I've never used it). I've talked to him a few times and he says that he clears about $100k a year doing it. I don't think there's any permits or anything involved, but he's a westside institution and he's met with literal cheers every now and then when he enters a bar. Red cooler. Not blue cooler guy. Blue cooler guy is a copycat and a pale imitation.

Personally, I cook up some diced potatoes with a packet of sazon instead of beans.
