Just want to point out that we all only have a short time to live.

Civilization vs. the natural / supernatural

Wow, I really want to correct the original authors's grammar. Why use "instantiation" instead of "instance"?

At this point, I almost have to think you're trolling. Until you prove it, though, I'll attempt to keep discussing in good faith.

And so, your link: "Usury" is the English word for that concept. And investments generally aren't interest-bearing loans, anyway, but profit-sharing ventures.

Further: If I take my wages, my active income, and I invest it, the income from those investments is passive income, even if the initial investment was made with active income.

Finally: Videos are an ablist format that are hostile to those with vision and hearing impairments, both of which I have. I don't think saying "use your words" is refusing new information, but rather demanding it.

Because the definition of "first world" is "aligned with the US during the Cold War", second world was aligned with the USSR, third world were countries not significant on the global stage. It correlates with but does not require poverty or dictatorships.

I am not.

I'm not watching a video. Anything worth saying is better said in plain text.

Again, I wait tables and will not receive a pension; I barely receive a wage. Any late-life income is going to be either support from my children or from investments I make now.

It's bad form to post a video without a text summary.

Maybe this is different where you live, but where I live, most retirees have retirement investments, not pensions, and even pensions are usually drawn from a fund that is invested in the market. You can argue this shouldn't be the case, but you cannot seriously argue that this is not the case.

You know that most retirees rely on passive income, right? That investment is for the working class as well as the bourgeois and wealthy? Fucks sake, I wait tables and I invest, both in stocks and real estate.

Making pancakes for my kids.

2, and no.

I'm not against passive income, I'm against billionaires.

Just because I'm not a communist doesn't mean I'm not in favor of eating the rich.

I think those are called "buddy comedies", if you'd include things like Wedding Crashers.

For water and pop, sure.

For cocktails, not so much.

Sure. But you're be surprised how often someone asks for, say, a sangria without ice and then asks why the glass is only half full.

You remember a few years back when stimulus cheques were being sent out? They were only being sent to those who filed taxes.

Because they want to keep you in the sandbox.
