Yes. No qualifiers.

We are all doing the best we can with what we have. All the humble “no” respondents are too.

Well now I feel like a moron.

And then it protects you from the opporessive sun, or the oppressive cold, or the oppressive happy people in your grade?

I guess that would make sense.

Impossible to know. It is personal and you would have to ask them.

How do you get your hair to look like it used to live on another animal or was made in a factory?

Then how do you explain this questionaboner I’m having?

I can see a clearly sexual nipple there!

Not

I am no expert, but I suspect that super long haul international flights do not go through Palm Beach.

It would be interesting to do an anonymous Google form or something to see what the financial distribution of lemmings is like.

I mean yeah by the time you’ve got 36k (or more) for mortgage, 35k for daycare, if 200k pre tax and married 30k to the fed, 20k groceries now probably, 10k for car payments (presuming 2), then state and property taxes, insurance, maintenance, clothes, diapers maybe, benefits, gas (probably idk we went electric), yeah I could see how that money goes fast.

It’s definitely first world problems because it beats renting and 3 jobs and grandma watches the kids, but to do all the things you’re “supposed to do” by 1950s standards you probably need something north of 250k/yr.

Perks of living somewhere civilized I guess!

I sure get that. My dad did 80 hours of trade school in turn late 90s and turned out a six figure job with one day off a week and it was plenty. I do better now than we did then, but it took a PhD and like 17 years of work. Consequently I’m an older dad, but I guess it is what it is.

And that number would have to be astronomical. I thought I read that disgraced trillionaire number 1 was putting like 300M in the Republican war chest? Like youd have to win the Powerball north of 800M to have an observable effect of you dump it ALL in.

2018? If we hadn’t bought then I’m not sure we could have bought in.

No, I gotta say we are doing pretty well, but our household combined higher education time is about 20 years, and it’s not art history (sorry art history).

I do feel bad though that people are having a hard time and, while I don’t have a second house or a boat, I’m trying to give back wherever and whenever I can.

The trick is, if you have them you just have to afford them :/.

Everyone except the already very wealthy

I think that’s not quite right. I think there is a (now approaching vanishingly small middle class) which goes from like top 10% but less than 2% or 3% earners who are still doing ok. This is the household income at like 175k to probably… Idk 300k?

Compared to 40k/yr yeah that’s very wealthy, but compared to 600k+ it definitely isn’t.

My main point being that “very wealthy” is very VERY relative.

They are all great in my opinion. I get a hankering to rewatch them from time to time, but the second two more than the first one.
