If a man is making 25k a year and his woman is making 25k a year then as a couple you're making 50k a year. But women give in to the age old tradition that they make the kids men make the money and there's no progression.

    • @z0mggena

      I work delivering pizzas for a living in a very conservative upper-middle to upper-class area, and one thing that I've learned is that you can (usually) almost immediately tell how well someone is going to tip by the size and elaborateness of their house. Many of the neighborhoods are fairly exclusive in what income level is able to live there based on location, scenery and the size/style of the properties. There's one family that I deliver to quite regularly consisting of 2 adults and 5 children. They live in a large but simple house on a decent-sized lot, and I don't think I've ever received a tip under $7 from them despite their order usually being around $30 including tax and delivery fee. On the other hand, there was one gentleman that I delivered to who lived in a very elaborate home situated on the side of a mountain with a view of the river, with Romanesque pillars along the front and a driveway that wrapped around a large fountain in the front yard. This gentleman wrote in a tip for 47 cents on a nearly $50 order. Now, I bring this up not because I expect people to tip well just because they're wealthy, but to emphasize the point that wealth just amplifies who you are as a person. I'm very appreciative of the family who tips well and orders often, because I know that they understand that not everyone has been as fortunate financially and they seem to be very kind people (their daughter hugged me and thanked me for bringing them pizza the first time I delivered to them), where the gentleman who wrote in a 47 cent tip folded the receipt in half and tucked it under the clip of my pen before handing it back to me with a smile, almost as though he got a kick out of doing something that he knew was insulting. I chose not to take his tip when cashing out at the end of the night.

    • @z0mggena
      @z0mggena 7 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      LTiCicle I live in a “fair wage” state, meaning employers cannot pay tipped workers below minimum wage. Tipping is still customary because someone is providing a service that you could be doing yourself (I.e. bring your food to you rather than you going to get it), and so for waiters/waitresses they’re assumed to receive a 10% tip at most places, which they need to pay taxes on, and so they lose part of their wages if the person doesn’t tip. In the case of delivery drivers, they have to use their own personal vehicles to make the deliveries and are only compensated for gas, so tips help for maintenance, higher insurance rates and to make up for the exacerbated depreciation of the vehicle. That’s not to say that I agree with this system, I’m just explaining how it works.

      @John Tremblay You do not have to be retired to work less hours. I can use my dad as an example. I barely saw him when I was younger since he was always traveling and working, however, now that he sold his sugar factories worth almost 1 billion dollars, I see him everyday. After he sold his company he still did not retire, he started hotels, pharmacies and car rentals. He goes to work 4 days a week and takes 3 days free (of course he has to take calls in his free time once in a while but he doesn't work like crazy). So my point is money does buy freedom.

But most of us do the right thing thing almost the whole day and just get wrong a little bit. If we were chaotic by nature. Why would we create charts? Cities? Why would basically all our products be symmetrical? Life is one of the few things that aim for Oder. Because if it aims for chaos it dies.

He probably spends and saves very wisely and rules his small business(es) with an iron fist. The other guys stand out to me because they have the pieces you need for mega-wealth. That's just my opinion, of course.

      S D To be honest, some of us don't see the "reason" as to why we would want to be rich in the first place. Making it to middle class? Yes. But rich? I don't know. I can see that it would make things significantly easier in a lot of ways, but there is an inner element that doesn't quite add up sometimes. Its kind of an existential thing. What would I even do with my money if I was super rich? I don't know.
      As a kid, I was raised "poor" by American standards. We literally lived in a kitchen at one point and almost ended up on the street. I couldn't keep up with my schoolmates in regards to toys, videogames etc...because we couldn't afford that stuff. It kinda sucked. But I don't look back at my childhood like it was a horrible time because of that. I was more concerned with making friends and not being lonely than anything else. People in my family feel deep regret because they didn't provide for us as much as they thought they should have. But I wish they wouldn't feel bad about it. I honestly feel like I would have been a bad kid if I was raised with money.
      I make some money now, and I save the shit out of it. But I often ask "what am I saving for?"

      I get what he's saying, but it also wouldn't be smart to marry a person who's income is extremely low. You can perhaps be happy even as you starve to death, but ideally you yourself would want to be financially secure to a certain extent if you strive to enjoy life as much as you can.
      There are lots of variables in these situations. But even if you truly love this person, if you've known them for a relatively long time (as you probably should before marrying them), and they seem to be having money trouble due to irresponsibility, bad decisions, etc, and are showing no signs of improving any time soon (whether or not effort is being put into solving these issues) then marrying them would likely be a poor decision of your own.
      I don't think you have to up and ditch this person, but like we've all heard before, we each have to work on our own issues before taking on any others.

      @brycekrispiez714 6 ปีที่แล้ว +76

      Moon Warrior True. Money can’t get you fulfillment itself. But it can tremendously help pave the way for you to get there.
      Say you want to get into college for a degree in legal studies so you can go to law school so you can become an immigration lawyer. You’re not afraid of the difficulty or how much stress you’ll be under because you know you can endure because you want that goal. Only problem is you’re flat broke. So you look for the cheapest possible colleges. Not even enough money to attend for a year, let alone money for food and transportation.
      So you look for a job, you’ve been looking for an entire year since you’ve graduated high school and you haven’t found anything stable yet. And the little that you do get doesn’t even make a scratch on the surface of your savings pile. You look tirelessly day and night but since you live in the ass end of nowhere, there is nothing for miles. And the jobs you do find aren’t even enough for gas. The only hope are the jobs in the summer that pay well and aren’t far. Problem is, they’re only for the summer.
      You want to move somewhere but you can barely afford your own gas money. You have no friends that are willing to help and you’re family is just as broke as you. Not that it matters anyway since you never ask for help and want to do this on your own. You’ve already given up on one dream. But I guess that isn’t true since you still train every morning like you have been doing for the past 3 years.
      Not like it matters anyway. There’s no boxing clubs or gyms around here anyway. You’ve been making due with your own equipment that’s been given as a gift or passed down. All you want is the chance, you feel ready, but you’re not. You don’t even have a trainer. You want to ask your father but he’s struggling with too many things already so you don’t want to be a hinderance.
      But you don’t have any money so you can’t afford a trainer. Doesn’t matter since there aren’t any around here anyway so your dad is your only hope. Luckily you wouldn’t want anyone else since the old man was a sight to behold back in the day. When he stepped into the ring, you knew you were in for a show. It wasn’t a big arena and he was never on tv but he brought home trophies and you’d ask him about them growing up. It’s in your blood, you know you can go big. But you have no money.
      So you want to be an immigration lawyer but you also want to be what you’ve wanted to be since you were a kid. A professional boxer. Too bad you don’t have money or you’d already be down one of these roads. Instead you just look for any opportunity to make any kind of money and watch as time passes you by.

I meant challenging the stereotypes of being rich. It seemed like the rich discussed those problems with the other rich. With the exception of 4:40 where the rich had to bring the poor into the discussion with a question. She looked scared to talk her truth. I just thought the confidence between the two sides was an interesting contrast. And I simply wish the poor spoke up more on their point of view. It doesn't mean I think the rich should be ashamed of anything or that they did any wrongdoing.

      Moses King Being able to work hard is a privilege in itself. As a disabled person I'm unable to work a traditional job. I do work hard but it won't be enough to ever be able to live on - simply because I spend much of the day stuck in bed or in agonising pain.
      The rich can't help that, but they often put it down to purely working hard instead of all the other factors. Going to the right school, having parents who were able to provide a stable loving home, meeting the right people, having a good education, having good health etc. That doesn't mean all those factors are always there, but it certainly helps.

      My observation was simply that maybe rich people are more used to giving orders, and poor people are more used to taking orders. Growing up in either group might give you different personality traits in a way. And that might affect how you take part in group conversations, like the one seen in this video. Just a speculation. And in my opinion, how much money you have does not dictate wether you are a good person or not.
