Oh my god I looked through his comments and a lot of it is saying how Trump has been good his stocks and he has a 250k trust fund from his grandparents that he expects to be a few million in a few years. I knew a guy like that (with a nice but not ‘I don’t have to work’ trust fund) and he blew through all of it in like 5 years.

I never touched weed until my 20s and I still had trouble getting out of bed after gaming and reading the SA forums until 3AM every night. My older bro gave me a talk about it making him looking for bad getting me the job, and I was never late again. That kid needs a boot firmly planted into his rectum.

A few 7am wake ups via a bucket of water to the face should sort him out pretty quick. Even if he doesn't keep the job they should keep doing that.

Yeah, that's the best BWM part quote:I got like $250 grand in a trust waiting for me from my grandparents when I turn 25. With interest it will be at least a few million in 7 years. I know people will poo poo on me but if I live in my means I won't have to ever work quote:It basically doubles every six months so by the time I can get it when I'm 25 conservatively it will be worth at least 4 million.

The rule is investments can double every 7 years. Did he get years and months mixed up? That’s one heck of a mistake.

That is a great detail. He's got such a great interest rate it's the rule of 72 became 72 fortnights?

uvar posted:Yeah, that's the best BWM part Assuming a few million is 2 million and setting his time horizon as 7 years would require it to be gaining 35% per year...not very likely lol and of course doesn't take into account him drawing it down to live off of. The sad thing is he could be set up for a super cushy life... 18 making 50k plus bennies...250k trust fund.... but of course he wants to piss it away doing literally nothing. I would put money on being a stoner too because that's just a lack of motivation.

I'd put money instead on it being a trigger-troll because no true shitbird would bother with a semi-articulate Reddit post explaining it. It's almost custom engineered to attract "when I was YOUR age you LAZY gently caress" responses.

Vox Nihili posted:AITA (or would I be) if I quit the trade job my dad got for me because the boss is sort of abusive and I can't wake up in time for the start time (ever)? As a former area resident I enjoyed the extremely Tucson-specific references they sprinkled throughout the post as if the rest of Reddit would be familiar with or a give a poo poo what they were talking about.

I call it boomer-bait. Usually you see it manifest where Google and the rest of Silicon Valley have managed to monetize online attention but there's a lot of future outrage headline-writers practicing on Reddit, it seems.

My 70-year-old coworker seems to think it's insanely demanding to expect her to be at work in time for a 10 AM meeting once a week. Most weeks she calls in instead (which is supposed to be an extenuating-circumstances thing), and she's usually late for that, too. She's constantly griping about her 90-minute commute (which in my area is not especially remarkable). Once I was telling her that she'd missed or been late for so many of these meetings that our boss was basically mocking her and she really, really needed to be at the next several meetings on time, and I recommended that she aim to be at work by 9:30 those days. She said, "I guess I'll have to wake up at 5 AM then!" I said, "I don't mean to pry, but if your commute is 90 minutes I'm not sure why you'd have to get up so early. Can't you just leave at 8 AM?" She said, "Well, sometimes it takes closer to two hours to get here." I left it there. But trust me, if she had other obligations like caring for dependents she would definitely have told us all about it, so I really don't know what her deal is. This is BWM because it's one of many things that may eventually lead to her possibly getting fired.

I didn’t put up curtains and people looked into my room, broke my window, and stole my poo poo. Pro tip, if you’re living in a HUD house you co-signed for at age 19 with a flakey vegetarian, next to a crack whore trailer and across from a drug dealer, put up some knock off Looney Toon curtains. Oh dear, I’ve humble bragging now. Some people were only renting their shithole and didn’t get to experience the miracle of home ownership at such an early age. StormDrain posted:90 minute commutes are BWL. I went from a 90 minute commute each way to 30 minutes. Holy loving poo poo lifestyle improvement. Good commutes are worth their weight in gold.

I just downshifted and hit every green light. That’s 3 right turns, one left, and 7 lights. It remains to this day one of my greatest achievements. I’ll eat a sixer for bragging about my commute. It was worth it.

StormDrain posted:90 minute commutes are BWL. It's a little fascistic but my company requires employees to live within 45 minutes as a measure to make people hate their lives a little less (and so they're less of a flight risk... It's definitely self interest) For BWM content: a few years ago one of the newer guys on my team (server IT) was put on a Performance Improvement Plan because he hadn't been getting stuff done. He walked out of the job on spot. He had moved to the area a year earlier and had closed on a house two weeks earlier. Don't know what happened to him.

In BWM news: just heard my cousin whose dad left her a trust is harassing my dad (executor of trust) to give her money to buy a pair of glasses for every day of the week. Also same story for a watch for every day of the week. To be fair, she’s got some developmental disabilities so explaining this and talking her down can be a challenge but she can function well enough to hold a job. She’s threatening to sue my dad if he doesn’t give in to her demands. Unfortunately my dad isn’t real sure he even gives a gently caress given she’s been harassing him on and off for five years about various BWM things.
