I really don't care one bit who has the billions or any of that crap, I do well and will be fine. I just have ideas and suggestions on how the people with extreme wealth could make lives easier for people under them. I know it will NEVER happen. But I like to say what I feel about because I can. Love this thread and all the input (mostly). I do not wish I had those billions because look at all the hub bub going on right now about him! FUCK ALL THAT!:heart:

A few mill is fine with me, hell even one mill would be fantastic.




Don't care, but suggest, don't want, but would be fantastic.

Would you take advice from a homeless guy about how you could make his life easier by giving him things even though he doesn't care and has no interest in living as nicely as you? And the difference between you and a homeless guy is not nearly as vast as the difference between you and Jeff Bezos. Ok, and maybe you do help out a homeless guy every now and then.... that's great. But do you let the homeless bro decide the extent of your help? Fak no.

Stuff and things should be real copacetic when you discuss what is right and wrong. That is what the issue boils down to for me. Whether bum to middle class, or middle class to Jeff Bezos, we should be arriving at the same answer when we ask the question if it is ok. Is it ok for you to be middle class when bums exist? Is it ok for Jeff Bezos to be wealthy when the middle class exists? Of course.

Should a bum be taken seriously when he gives you financial advice? Should you be considered when giving Bezos financial advice? ( I'll let you answer this one)

The idea of arbitrarily deciding what another man should or should not have based on nothing but the inability to fathom what the point of being so wealthy is... is kind of not good. For all the reasons why you wouldn't take financial advice from a bum.




The government "arbitrarily" decides fiscal, tax, monetary and trade policy in favor of the rich over the working class?  Not at all.

Saw a headline this morn where Bezos just bought a Los Angeles mansion that used to be owned by David Geffen. 165 million dollars. With an estimated monthly mortgage of $778 thousand dollars. Which of course he won't need since he can probably paypal the entire shit all at once to the seller.

Probably an impulse buy. Ho hum.

I am not rich but want to become rich one dat. If I do not reach my goal I will have nobody to blame but myself. It's nobody else's responsibility to make sure I am successful.

It wont be jeff bezos' fault or anyone elses fault if I fail to make the propper sacrifices.

You guys can blame jeff bezos. Im going to take responsibility for my situation.

if we all took an equal cut of besos' networth we would all get under 20$. whereas with that money concentrated it can be invested and used to create new goods, services and jobs which improve out quality of life as a species.

besides nobody is entitled to anyone elses money just because they want it.

Equal cut? What? No one said anything about taking his money and dividing it amongst everyone lol.

How about taking half that money and fixing EVERY orphanage in the country?

Or fuck that, just spend $60b on a huge party! It’ll still boost the economy. Meanwhile, hoarding the cash that he will never be able to spend is shrinking the economy for everyone.

Sure, you can still make it. But if it wasn’t for the hoarding by the 1%, you AND another bloke could’ve both made it. Instead, one of you will outcompete the other into bankruptcy

You misunderstand what I'm saying. Having people invest in the creation of new goods and services is beneficial to our species and has been responsible for massive increases in quality of life.

the 1% dont hoard. they invest their money. thats why they are rich. besides you speak of the 1% as if its some group of billionaires. first of all people move in and out of the 1%. its not the same people staying on top and keeping the rest of us down. its just 1% of the population who has the most money in a given area.

in Canada a household only needs to make like 190 000 CAD  a year to be in the top 1% in Canada.

you are probably in the 1% of the world.

you think spending 60b on a party would would be more beneficial than him investing his wealth in his company like he currently is?

if i go bankrupt its my own fault. lol its not be jeff bezos' fault.

you have so many misconceptions.

He’s not investing it. If you think he is, you should have no trouble finding a source for your claim.

Amazon doesn’t create any new goods or services either.

He could quadruple every salary/wage at Amazon and still be a billionaire so that’s fucking hoarding.

They are building a new distribution center in my state that's going to create a lot more jobs. I'm sure it's not the only one being built nationwide.

I won't be taking one of those jobs because I make more than they pay at my current job. Truth is I have seen so many people come to my job complaining about how broke they are and then when they find out its going to be hard work they want no part of it. A large percentage of people are fucking lazy....have no grit. You get back what you put in.

Are you kidding? hes invested in airbnb, uber, he bought the washington post, he was one of the first investors in google back in the day, he created the space tech company blue origin, I could go on and on.

hes also given billions to charity.

"Amazon doesn’t create any new goods or services either."


:facepalm: Amazon is a service.

so are uber, airbnb, etc, etc.

Again, you have many misconceptions.

besides. you are not entitled to money that someone else gained through voluntary transactions.

If you provide a good or service that people are willing to pay for they will engage in transactions with you and you can earn money.

the fact that there are already wealthy people does not prevent other people from becoming wealthy.

sure, you cant call your business amazon for example. thats someone else's intellectual property. but nothing is stopping you from starting a new venture of your own.
