How about Cybercab and its robotaxi service? They are starting in Austin this June. That seems very immediate on the horizon

You may feel that they go unapposed and therefore you should be a countering force, but really your efforts are moot. People have their beliefs that won’t be changed online, at least not from some internet stranger. You can make the best arguments in the world and the opposition will simply ignore your point, move the goalposts, and implement the next logical fallacy to keep proving you “wrong” or “an idiot”.

I love the design, simple, functional, and beautifully minimalistic!

Some could be low investment (~2%) if it is an S&P 500 index fund, but others that rely more on tech/growth stocks could be 5-10% or more. Retirees in drawdown phase (withdrawing 4% annually, or $9,000-$10,000) are extra vulnerable to sequence-of-returns risk—early losses lock in lower balances. A boycott-driven Tesla slump in 2025 could force sales of depressed assets, amplifying losses.

Funny how the people who want to tank Tesla are causing self injury. 401(k) accounts and nearly every major retirement fund are invested into $TSLA. These dumb shits think they are doing something for the world because “Orange man bad, and now Elon bad” and they get to reap the rewards of reducing their own retirement accounts. Well-done.

🤣 we are clearly on very different trajectories. Good day to you!

This is propagating your limiting beliefs and connecting their end with your beginning. Many have don’t this and started from scraps in the working class.

John Paul DeJoria: Born to immigrant parents in Los Angeles, DeJoria faced early adversity when his parents divorced, leading him to live in a foster home at age two. By nine, he was selling newspapers and Christmas cards to help support his family. After periods of homelessness and working odd jobs like janitor and door-to-door shampoo salesman, he co-founded John Paul Mitchell Systems in 1980 with just $700. Later, he launched Patrón Tequila, revolutionizing the premium tequila market. His net worth stands at around $4 billion, per Forbes, a testament to his self-made journey.

Alright man, they’re lucky and special and you’re not. Happy now? Now, where are you?

Now that idea is something I would probably still consider. On one hand I think UBI would be pretty damn cool, and probably a useful advancement for society. On the other hand, the reason for the desire for UBI in this instance is still incorrect and that it is essentially asking for the labor of another to feed you or to feed others simply because they were successful. It seems like a good move initially, but if you think about how it could play out, that could actually be an incredibly damaging thing for society. People that would normally be driven to innovate are then stifled and subdued with this because they’re just waiting for someone else to reach that level of success so that they can be fed more.

The difference is they went through the period of sacrifice and now they’re past it. You can’t compare their end with your beginning. And no, I’m not sucking up to them. I don’t give a shit about any of them, but what I do give a shit about is victim mindset, and people like you going online to bitch about things out of your control so you can give yourself the excuse not to start and provide yourself with the comfort that the excuses you’re making to not get somewhere better is actually the right move.

Now you know. You can look up their stories yourself. Now stop perpetuating the false dogma that somehow these people are special and unique and have something that you don’t. You can do it too, you just choose not to.

Sounds like an excuse to stop yourself from starting and continue pointing fingers at someone else. Also, sounds like you think they are somehow special and unique and have powers that you don’t. They’re a human just like you. Everybody fails at everything at some point, but the differentiating factor is whether you’re going to pick yourself up and keep going with the new information you’ve gotten. It doesn’t cost anything to hedge against risk and make a plan for potential failure, and you certainly don’t need to be a billionaire to do it.

Sounds like a pretty lofty assumption
