Once we perfect time travel we will be able to go back in time and pay 80s prices for everything. You know all those fat people on scooters in Walmart? That’s actually us from the future scoring great deals on sorts of poo poo. Time travel makes you super fat, and the farther back you go the harder it gets to move. Eventually your time travel scooter tips over and you get stuck in the 60s or 70s. :tinfoil:

I'd rather donate plasma. I'm not actually poor per se, I just chose a career that was enjoyable and fulfilling, but not, you know, monetarily. The plasma selling isn't to make ends meet or anything, it's just to get some easy spare cash. So, not desperate enough to code yet.

how much they pay these days? It was $25/$45 when i did it like 5 years ago

if the plasma centers are conveniently located to you, they're a pretty good source of guilt-free fun money (or critical funds to pay bills, w/e). I used to be able to squeeze out enough plasma in like 25 minutes, after screening and all that you're in and out in under an hour

I think you're missing the point, whether the job requires skill makes no difference as to whether it's classified as a no skill job

many grocery stores have a shelf for day old baked goods and items near expiration that have marked down up to fifty percent. try looking near the semi-transparent double swing doors that lead to the employees only area of the store.

The place I go is 52/60 if you donate twice a week. The first 8 donations were a hundred each, which was pretty nice. It's not a life-changing amount of money, but it's a nice bonus. I'm using it right now to pay off some home repair loans more quickly.

Yeah, it's not gonna turn your finances around or anything, but it does help to have some extra cash that can cover your phone bill, or your bar tab over the weekend, or whatever. It helps me get some quality reading time too, I've finished a ton of books thanks to donation days.

a while back I read about big ol plasma farms in china where they just round up the poors, milk em for pennies, and then off they go. they’re apparently completely unregulated and often don’t follow hygiene protocol, extract plasma too frequently, etc. and as a result, frequent donors get hosed. anyway, the whole industry gives the loving creeps.

Marx argued that this fetishism of inflation serves to obscure the underlying economic relationships and processes that determine the value of commodities and the distribution of wealth and power in society. By focusing on the fluctuations of prices and the value of money, people are distracted from the deeper structures and dynamics of the capitalist system, which are characterized by exploitation, inequality, and domination.
