I'm not sure who the true protagonist is- Jake the squatter who they had to bribe to move out, or the guy they met out on the street who convinced them he's an engineer and then caved in their basement, and they still paid him several thousand dollars
:allears:

Preview:

I thought they paid him 100k.

Use soft picks if you are too lazy to floss. I can go through my entire month in 30 seconds and I do it twice a day. You should still floss daily because cavities = BWM.

I use a reusable one. It's like a giant floss pick you use with normal floss. Better for the environment.

Of course the guy who posted that comments on pissing videos on gonewild. I just don't know if I can handle reality anymore, it's getting too weird.

Edit: Even more hilarious is the real story behind the latest personalfinance post (assuming its real), his dad is leaving the country to retire and is giving his kid this 200k, and he is trying to figure out a way to make 25k-35k a year in return so he can just live for free basically.

I'm getting more than a whiff of bitcoin here.

It's prob gold or something. Some people keep tens of thousands of gold just because.

Like, shares of index funds or any stock or whatever? I'm sure some brokers issue atm cards so you can get cash out quickly but I doubt all of them do.

Like, not everyone is lying about everything, dismissing the possibility that the "very liquid investment" is indeed a very liquid investment is a little hasty.

My bet is still on gold. There are immigrant communities that still hold large amounts of gold, and there is a tradition of buying/selling large amounts of gold for major life expenses.
