  • I mean yeah. I also own a house and have set my life up in such a way that I can afford to live what most people consider a normal life.

    I'll be honest if you can't afford ~$1,000 in savings. Which is the sum that it took to cover my bank fees in dividend returns then it's not about being rich or poor, it's about being poor with your financial decisions. I grew up poor. Literally bankrupt poor, moving from place to place as we ran from bills. I started paying for my own clothes at age 9 and foot the bill for my entire life since age 12. Having $1,000 in the bank is not just for rich people. I've had that in the bank since I was 15 years old. Sometimes it wasn't any more than that, but even when I was living on my own with zero support and bills up to my eyeballs, there was still a chunk of money earning me money along the way.

  • This is what I did with my banking fees....

    I bought enough stock that the dividend covers my monthly fees. I reinvest the dividend so the yield keeps increasing. It's a Canadian bank so it's safe AF and not going anywhere and it's up like 18%+ since I started the other year so I'm not going backwards there either.

    Weird way to cover my fees but seems to be working.

  • I stopped having sympathy during the Obama administration. When half of the country will willingly and intentionally fuck themselves over to prove a point, when a political party will reverse course on a life saving piece of legislation because the other side agreed to it, and those same people continue to get elected, it's not worth my emotional energy to give a fuck anymore.

    Y'all deserve what you have. It's not good but it's what you want.

  • Hey, next time maybe don't bring your kid along when you plan on doing terrorist things while supporting a fucking terrorist organization.

    Sucks for the kid, but this is mom's fault all the way down the line. I say that as a strong acab believer too.

  • I live in a city of about 3/4 of million people, just shy of it. Winnipeg Manitoba Canada.

    I can walk to every one of those other than a university and sports arena (pro football or hockey, minor community center within ten), within twenty minutes. The movie theater is probably twenty away, everything else is accessible within 15 pretty easy.

    It's possible but you gotta get into one of those post war community type places that hasn't been turned over yet..

  • I mean..... we've seen the bias show thru at the UN without US interference before. Israel has more human rights censures than any other middle east country for example LoL. The panel is CLEARLY able to pass judgement, the US steps in before the resolutions are passed though at the lower levels.

  • Because it won't be politically expedient for them by the time they're in a position to do anything about it. They will use it as a wedge issue until the next thing comes up, and the cycle will continue.

    If this happened when they were in power, they'd certainly capitalize on it.
