Took fishing trips and vacations with all the kids routinely. He made half what I do inflation adjusted and lived every bit as much if not more Yeah but did he buy a 15 year old Duesenburg SSJ with 200K miles on the clock!?!?!?

It costs allot to start a whole 2nd life in another place on 30 days notice. I'm much better off financially now making 70% what I did last year given I dont have to sustain 2 households I forgot about the two houses, makes a bit more sense now. My bad bro.

He did buy the kids dirt bikes and he drove new vehicles. I'm not saying I dont spend money. I'm just saying there is zero chance I could do what he did on my wage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSFB Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Quote Bernie Sanders: 'We Must Pay Off Student Debt To Stay True To Our Liberal Values Of Not Taking Personal Responsibility For Anything' June 24th, 2019 WASHINGTON, D.C.—Bernie Sanders announced he would pay off all $1.6 trillion in student debt if elected president "so that we can stay true to our liberal values of not taking personal responsibility for anything." "What kind of nation do we want to be?" he asked a crowd gathered around him as he exited a local Denny's restaurant. "Do we want to be a nation that asks people to work hard and take responsibility for themselves?" The crowd booed, and Bernie Sanders wagged his finger. "That's right, we don't. We want to be a nation that remains true to itself. A nation where you can borrow hundreds of thousands of dollars and expect other people to pay for it." "That's what this nation is all about," he added, glaring at the crow, "making poor financial decisions and then expecting someone else to foot the bill. That's what attracted me to the socialist platform in the first place." At publishing time, Sanders had asked if anyone in the crowd could run back into the Denny's and pay for his tab since he had skipped out on the bill. https://babylonbee.com/news/bernie-sanders-we-must-pay-off-student-debt-to-stay-true-to-our-liberal-values-of-not-taking-personal-responsibility-for-anything?fbclid=IwAR3NO8vLD7RF1YwnqLPXvnh33ITnSN6riH68G1Sf7Bp5seHFrEOqfWMhyrE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year I wont hit 100k. Thanks union while i would not say that living in a high cost of living area it's about what someone needs to live a good life. when i fell back below 100k in my household for a couple of years it was a huge wakeup call and struggle to live like we did.

That company wasn't cheap, in many ways I bought myself. I have had years where I have made HUGE money, I have also had years where I lost HUGE money. I know what it is to bet the farm, and to quote Marshal Mathers I've known that success was my only motherfuckin option beside losing everything; sure it was stressful and let me tell you stress is a motivator as is the desire to win But it's also not for everyone, choices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
