Why would I move to Cuba? I was born here. I’ll just wait it out until this cunt bag’s term is over and then the country is in such a shit hole that even you will go vote blue. Then the Democrats will have to clean up the mess that idiots voting & defending for this shit have caused.

The spreadsheet math on this is brutal. She left roughly $54 million on the table. Yet she probably just made the best financial decision of her life. $1M in an S&P 500 index fund at age 20 compounds to approximately $58M in inflation-adjusted terms by age 80. The historical real return is about 7% annually over 97 years of data. Her annuity pays $52,000 a year. Over 60 years that totals $3.1M. The gap is 18x. Every finance account in these replies will tell you she's wrong. The compounding math is clear. Take the lump sum, put it in VOO, don't touch it for 60 years. The Certified Financial Planner Board says roughly a third of lottery winners declare bankruptcy within five years. Illinois court records show 28% of winners who won $50K or more went bankrupt in the same window. The average winner spends 60% of their winnings on family and friends in the first two years. She's 20. Peak impulsivity, minimal financial literacy, and every person she's ever met just found out she has a million dollars in her checking account. The $1M doesn't go into a Vanguard account. It goes into the most socially pressured spending environment a human being can occupy. $1,000 a week is a permanent $52K salary, tax-free in Canada, that arrives whether she makes good decisions or catastrophic ones. Can't be drained by a partner. Can't be lost to a scam. Can't be "invested" in a cousin's restaurant. Shows up every Friday for the rest of her life. The spreadsheet says lump sum by 18x. The data on what actually happens to people who receive $1M at 20 says she just bought the most expensive insurance policy in lottery history, and it was worth every dollar she gave up.

An 20-year-old Canadian girl won $1M (tax free in Canada) in the lottery and chose $1,000/week instead of the lump sum. Is this wise or the worst financial decision of her life? What are you doing when this happens to you??

Distracted by celebrity drama, we miss crucial issues. While focusing on Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson, the Supreme Court rolled back voting rights and the Civil Rights Act of 1965. Don't let distractions overshadow what truly matters. #VoterRights #CivilRights

@ProfessorPewPew @LibertyNGuns Again, all subjective. I’ve shot the hellcat a few times. It’s fine. I prefer my Sig just fits me better. I shoot my Glock 19 better than a hellcat. It’s just not for me. Most people shoot my macro end up loving it including Glock lovers. It’s all subjective and that’s the point.

@GioM69 @LibertyNGuns I shoot actively typically twice a week, and you’re right. I also don’t see many hellcats on the range, but when I shoot with people that carry M&Ps, Glocks, and Sigs I will 8 times out of 10 outshoot them. They end up shooting the Pro and end up loving it.

Today is the first time I really shot (>200 rounds) the m&p 2.0. How Glock still sells pistols amazes me

@ProfessorPewPew @LibertyNGuns Your opinion and not a great one. I work at Range four days a week and I never see a hellcat Pro. I’ll see more Sig macros six 365 even in competitions.

A hellcat pro is absolutely better out of the box than a 365 XL. You talk about sales metrics like they’re the one all be all but by that mentality you’re saying the 43X is better than both. Meat riding Sig as its fanboy doesn’t change that Sig isn’t even top 5 conceal carry weapons anymore.

@GioM69 @LibertyNGuns I got the pro when I lived in Kansas right before I moved to Hawaii. The pro came out in 22 so it’s been 4 years, so I apologize for estimating wrong.

@GioM69 @LibertyNGuns When we were talking about only the Glock we were talking about after market support, but when we pivoted to be 365 we’ve been talking about better out the box.

@JasonCole62 But Helen is described in these stories as Blond and White. Nolan only cares about winning an award and had to follow DEI rules they starred implementing.

Sig sales are held up strictly by marketing. Just like Glock. All three guns I mentioned are objectively better than the 365 line. It’s not even opinionated. Outside of a few outliers, you get a lot more gun out of the competition. I carried a 365 for 3 years before the Hellcat came out. Loved it so much, switched to the pro and that’s been my EDC for about 6 years now.

Governor Abigail Spanberger
The Supreme Court of the United States has now joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election and the votes of more than three million Virginians. These Virginians made their voices heard — casting their ballots in good faith to push back against a President who said he’s “entitled” to more seats in Congress before voters go to the polls. As Governor, I will make sure voters know when and how to cast their votes this year. Because our votes are how we choose the representation we deserve.

@ProfessorPewPew @LibertyNGuns 365 is still the best. Hellcat is not even close to what the 365 line has. Sales prove it. HK, cant say never tried on seen at range in 3 years. Canik is getting better but still a class below the big boys

@LibertyNGuns @GioM69 The P229 and 226 are the only real exceptions to the rule. The 365 took the compact market for a short time but is nowhere near the “best” now. The Hellcat and its pro version are better, the HK cc9 is better, and Caniks MC9 Mete are better just to name a few.

@1MrFreeze1 Every test done in the last 5-10 years says otherwise. They are actually less reliable than most of their competitors in 2026

@LibertyNGuns I feel like all the hate on Glock is the same as the hate with Nickelback. It was cool to dislike them even though there really wasn't much to dislike! Glock could use a better trigger but they have hands down the most reliable pistol on the market. Accurate too!

@LibertyNGuns Because 3rd party customization for the Glock is still unmatched. Out of the box sure the Glock is mid at best, but the things you can do to it vs. other brands is crazy. PS- I don’t like glocks, but I acknowledge their place in the market.
