@gothamcityelle Free food, free clothes, free housing, free furniture, free utilities, and you get half of everything he makes. All you have to do is make 1 meal a day (or order), and keep a baby alive.

@cafreiman higher prices during shortages actually help ration stuff to people who need it Most instead of first-come hoarders. Ever notice how concert tickets do the same thing?

Surge pricing is good—if a store is running low on ice cream (for example), it can conserve the supply by instantly raising the price and reserve the remainder for those who value it the most (plus, the store can quickly lower prices if a product isn’t selling).
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

Walmart is rolling out digital price tags at all of its stores. At the same time, the corporate giant just secured a patent for "dynamically and automatically updating item prices.” Plus another patent for using machine learning to predict demand and recommend prices.

Most successful men are married and most successful women are single. Life's irony.

@jemelehill Not wanting to run continual losses on your business is "Misogyny". The Victim / Entitlement mentality is a societal virus.

Truly. The WNBA has NEVER opened their books so we don’t know what they’re actually making, how they calculate losses, or what their accounting methods are. Regardless, it’s just another way for some of them to display misogyny. The Clippers reportedly lost $700M in 2021 and not a single check to a player bounced. These sports teams are toys to these billionaires. Let them spend their money on what they invested in. People in this country are just conditioned to glaze billionaires. It’s wild.

Why men be acting like they payin these WNBA players outta pocket 😭

@Richard_Vixen It's crazy how some women will defend bad women just to try to about some imaginary gender war points

Imagine being 23 and referring to yourself as a child/child-bride. This is why so many people think 18-24 year olds aren't adults. It has to be intentional at this point. You have been and ADULT FOR FIVE YEARS!!
Buzzing Pop@BuzzingPop

Olivia Rodrigo tells British Vogue that she’s a “long way from” marriage: “What am I, a child bride? I hope that young girls know that life is full of so much joy that is unrelated to husband or kids.”

Why does a kid with Indian-American race need a 1600 on SAT to have the ~same odds of admission as a White kid with 1450? I cannot think of a single credible, benign explanation for this!
Werner Zagrebbi🇦🇿@zagrebbi

The famous SFFA case treated Indians and East Asians as a single group. This masked significant heterogeneity: It's way harder to get in if you're Indian! In Columbia's internal admissions database (h/t @cremieuxrecueil), East Asian applicants had a 41% lower odds of admission than equally qualified White applicants, whereas South Asian applicants had 63% lower odds.

Couple comes in for their annual review. $2.8 million. Well invested. Solid Pension. Completely on track. I ask the question I ask everyone. "How is your daughter doing?" Mom's face changed first. Their daughter is 39. Hasn't asked for anything. Never complained. But she's been in the same apartment for six years. Daycare alone is $1,800 a month. Down payment feels impossible. Dad said "we always figured she'd get it eventually." I pulled up a simple chart. Statistically they live to 88. She inherits at 56. Maybe 60. At 60 her own retirement is eight years away. The money that could change everything at 39 arrives when her finish line is already close. Neither of them had ever seen it framed that way. The annual gift exclusion is $19,000 per parent per child. They can move $38,000 a year to her. No gift tax. No estate implications. Over ten years that's $380,000 transferred while they're healthy enough to watch it matter. Dad looked at his wife. "Why are we waiting?" Most families leave everything at death because nobody showed them the math of giving it while they're alive.

There’s a conversation happening on TikTok where the girls are finally talking about how a lot of men aren’t actually attractive. Like you go to the grocery store and see a ton of stunning women, but men? You will remember how many months back you last saw a hot man.

@verncrawford @KurtSupeCPA Shocking how many people believe giving someone money for nothing will transform their life for the better. It’s almost as if those exposing the downsides have seen this exact scenario where it reinforces dependence and being bad with money and ends up hurting them in long run.

Indeed. It’s the great wealth effect. People are feeling wealth slide than they are. $2.8m used to be a lot of money. Today that is eroding away by the day. It is all about their need first. If that is their priority they better know the consequences in the future, just like all decisions. But the troubling part, even if mom and dad help daughter and their portfolio becomes unhealthy, the advisor that made the recommendation will never tell them.
