Willa Rogers posted:A few years ago I temped at a job with an open-office plan & if the assignment hadn't ended in a month my sanity certainly would have. It's like in Snow Crash, the insanity is the point, to keep workers from being able to function outside the office.

Mad Wack posted:its probably just normal traffic and this person is writing a fanfic in their head Warren Buffet stood in front of the assembled bankers. Behind him was a large wall, upon which screens were displaying the ominous red of an unhappy number. "Brothers, we are facing a crisis our industry has not seen since the days of the hated Rooseveldt. We must stand together and act as one to save our industry. I am willing to help, to stand alongside you. But first, you must do something for me..." he said as he unbuckled his belt.

Cao Ni Ma posted:Yeah I've said the same thing in the US where the food inflation is being tracked as lower. Oh yeah bread is 50% more expensive and rice and the meats are like 20-30% more, keep tracking inflation at like 10% or something. True, but the imputed rent value of my home hasn't gone up at all, at least that's something.

spacemang_spliff posted:Mr. Modell is using his retirement to pursue his long-held dream of being a landlord to low-income tenants. About seven years ago, a year after he retired, he withdrew about $600,000 from his portfolio and bought five houses in lower-income areas of New Jersey. The Section 8 rentals generate about $80,000 a year after taxes in income. Well landlords don't really pay much in taxes anyway

shrike82 posted:home ownership has its issues but godspeed to renters these days Home ownership is terrible, the guy who owns the house is a lazy POS who never fixes anything and springs for the cheapest option whenever it's unavoidable. That being said, it's still better than renting.

Deep Dish Fuckfest posted:considering how 2008 led to widespread cases of judges kicking people out of houses on behalf of banks so quickly that some people who never missed a payment or didn't even owe a given bank any money got kicked out of their home too, i'm gonna go ahead and guess that as renter scum your odds of finding a judge that won't relish loving you over are pretty slim At least one of the drivers behind that scheme was punished by being made secretary of the treasury

PoundSand posted:Without posting my zipcode I can say my city gets a ton of tech transplants from the PNW area for the exact reason of lower CoL WFH lifestyle, it's contributed to skyrocketing housing prices and literally every development is just small neighborhoods of 750k-1.5m to accomodate the transplants but it's no surprise they'd want to live here because it's basically no different from living in a burb in the greater seattle area except the col is a small fraction. You have all the typical dog whistles about safety/schools/etc alongside the average amenities most people would use on a regular basis and If you really want something more cultured we're a roadtrip away from major areas, hell I've been to seattle and back within the same day and it's not unreasonable. There's certainly middlegrounds between meth havens and a full blown metro area and that's where a lot of these people are moving. Ugh, but you have to live in East Wenatchee

Willa Rogers posted:Former President Bill Clinton has made the most of any modern president on the speaking circuit. He gives dozens of speeches a year and each brings in between $250,000 and $500,000 per engagement, according to published reports. He also earned $750,000 for a single speech in Hong Kong in 2011. Dang, how many mistresses does he need to pay hush money to?

skooma512 posted:lol there is no way the US can fight Mexico in a war, there would be uprisings anywhere there's a Latino population. Chuds would also go full brownshirt and people are going to have to fight them and this will spiral into an insurgency. Last two times we invaded Mexico it went fine, I'm sure number three will go swimmingly.

The_Franz posted:And they see thousands, if not tens of thousands, of nearly identical applications from hyper-overachiever kids who check all those boxes and are rejected anyways, because there is a finite amount of space. Being a perfect student with more extracurriculars than there are hours in the day doesn't make you stand out when that's the minimum for every application they get. Yeah the problem is that there's maybe 10,000 spots per year at the ivies and probably 2,000,000 qualified kids per year so they have to look at the applications and figure out which kids are wealthiest without directly looking at parental income since the stupid Feds made it so the admissions people couldn't just take bribes directly. So seeing who's able to drop $750,000 on some well-connected grifter is a good way to detect that.
