As an office worker I sometimes wonder if welding would have been a better path. Honestly don’t know. Depends on the person.

I’ve always been able to vote within 10 min or less. Must vary a lot by location.

They assert that how people bet, whether on the benign (who will be the next James Bond?) or the consequential (will Israel and Hamas reach a cease-fire before the end of the year?), can help forecast the future. Because there’s money involved, the thinking goes, these prediction markets leverage the collective wisdom of what people actually think will occur, not what they hope will.

DJT stock ticker would like a word.

jk We all know the DJT stock is overvalued because of money laundering and selling access rather than “collective wisdom”.

Wasn’t speaking to your specific home value. I was adding to the point that every homeowner is not a millionaire.

If someone has a house worth $350,000 but they’ve only paid off $50,000 from the principal, then they aren’t worth $350,000. I’d argue they’re not even worth $300,000.

Miss a few payments, and they lose the house plus whatever payments they’d already made. That’s not personal wealth. We’re just living in the bank’s house until it’s paid off and the deed gets transferred.

Plus the bank owns any house with a mortgage. It’s not your house until it’s paid off. Can’t be a millionaire with $400,000 in assets and $375,000 in debt.

I don’t believe them either. Just saying that’s the lazy excuse they gave.

They say he was going off script for that part. But of course they would say that.

Damn bro. Start with mosquitoes. Always start with mosquitoes.

Worst part about being on Lemmy is having to tell your parents you’re gay

That was my first thought when all this came out recently. Ma$e walked away while they were on top of the world. Now it makes sense why he would give up the money and fame. I always wondered before.

I saw a press conference where a lawyer said they had between 100 and 200+ individual civil cases coming. Not class action. Individual lawsuits. They said they were working through 3,000 reports and the 100+ cases they had so far were very solid cases.

When your cousin did it a few years ago. Now they have a lot of your DNA too.

If I can find him he is.

Yeah the only kind of wallpaper I’ve encountered was old and did not peel away. You had to steam it, scrape it, burn it… I’m glad it’s easier to work with today.

Too bad Adams is not orange or white. He missed a key component of the plan.

Let everyone know about his actions. The more people who don’t like him - the better.

100% Whether he’s insane, evil, that fucking stupid, or all of those - he has no business being a lawyer anymore.

She’s an underpants gnome LOL
