Anybody who takes the time to hate on this 12u baseball team doesn’t have shit else in their life to worry about
Danny Kanell@dannykanell
The coaches and parents who allow this to go on are the problem. Instead of teaching kids how to play the game the right way and show respect for the opponent they’re worried about getting viral attention. Embarrassing.

@darrelltalksfi It’s even better than what you think. It’s quadruple tax savings. The extra is free of FICA taxes. Thats an extra 6…%

@wrestlinggdesk D3 National Champion. I would say a lot of D3 National champs would be D1 guys but for whatever reason they went D3 (academics, money, wanting a college life).

American says both his grandparents were school teachers. One of them stopped working to raised their kids, so their income was only about $20,000 per year
On $20,000 in a year, he was able to buy a house, support a family of four, buy 2 cars, send my father to private school. He was even able to retire 10 years early
He says this kind of life is now impossible and that’s why young people feel “hopeless”
“But in 2026, our government, our society is geared solely towards maintaining the wealth and comfort of the boomer generation. Every year without fail, proposals that help young people, proposals that help poor people, first time home buyers, yada, yada, yada fail in Congress. — But every year, hundreds of billions of dollars in Social Security increases sail through the chambers of Congress without a second thought. There is really no support system for the younger generation at this point.”
“Most people are trying to come to grips with the fact that they are never going to be able to retire at all, let alone retire 10 years early. It's just not the same world that it was, not even close.”
- Roughly 80% of Boomers were able to buy homes
- High estimates of Gen Z say only around 20-27% will be able to buy a home (this seems very generous)

American works full time, she doesn’t own a home, “I don't own anything crazy”
She just did her taxes and “I literally sh*t my f*cking pants”
Despite working full time, not making any big purchases, she has no money but owes $17,000 in taxes
She says if she were to pay her taxes, she would actually be negative money after working all year just from paying bills and taxes
“I just wanna know how the f*ck does one owe so much money in taxes when they got no money?”
As of 2026, data shows the average American does not have any substantial amount of money left at the end of the year after bills, taxes, and typical spending
In fact the number is so low, that after taxes the average American typically only is able to save 4% of their money after bills
Insane

At the 2019 US Open, Daton Fix and Thomas Gilman went head to head in the 57KG finals.
Fix was coming off a NCAA finals loss a month prior, and a loss to Gilman at the Final X the year before aswell. With a chip on his shoulder, the cowboy beat Gilman 8-4 to win the US Open and make his way back to Final X where he was able to redeem himself and make a senior world team.

@STOPVOTINGFOR @UziCryptoo I don’t hear a baby crying. I hear the claps of people setting a solid foundation towards building wealth

@Raistlin3199 @UziCryptoo Why does "financially sound advice" sound like a crying baby?

CALLER: I opened a High Yield Savings Account. My $20,000 emergency fund earns 4.5% interest. That’s $900 a year doing nothing.
DAVE RAMSEY: Get rid of it. Put that $20,000 toward your mortgage!
CALLER: But I’m earning $900 a year for free.
DAVE RAMSEY: Debt is the enemy! Pay off the house!
CALLER: My mortgage rate is 3%. I’m earning 4.5%.
DAVE RAMSEY: That’s not how you get rich!
In reality, if your savings rate beats your debt rate, keep the cash. That’s called arbitrage.
Every dollar matters.

@Geniustechw FFS is this a teenager buying food. This mother should be ashamed of serving this food. Much cheaper, better valvue and more nutritional food available at every grocery store in America

@UziCryptoo The problem here is that someone convinced you a “starter” home exists to begin with. In reality, there is no such thing. It’s just a home. And what’s wrong with children sharing rooms. This is what you call a want not a need. 🤷♂️
English

It’s 2022 you just got married and bought a starter home for $450k with a 2.5% interest rate.
4 years later that home is now worth over $800k
Seems great — but now you have two kids and that starter home just isn’t big enough.
You could sell and buy a new one, but that upgrade home would cost at least $1 million with a 7% interest rate.
What does a person do in this situation?
This is the Golden Handcuffs of home ownership.

Saying Africans sold other Africans to justify slavery in entirety is a very lazy argument to begin with
Wanjiru Njoya@WanjiruNjoya
Africans were selling fellow Africans as slaves to Arab slave traders for CENTURIES before the first Europeans ever showed up. And when Britain banned the slave trade they got angry that their trade was being thwarted and refused to stop slave trading.

@UziCryptoo A lot of the posters have never seen a recession. The past 16 yrs have been the best market

Just heard the best/worst caller on the Dave Ramsey podcast.
Married couple, under 30. $145,000 household income. Came on the show to celebrate paying off the mortgage on their $450,000 Georgia home.
Said they starting paying it off early 5 years ago, meaning they had a low interest rate home loan (probably <3%) and started to aggressively pay it down right as interest rates were starting to rise.
Dave Ramsey loved it, launching into a lecture about how 26-year olds who say they can’t buy homes should look at this couple for inspiration. Hahaha.

@UziCryptoo That’s an awesome accomplishment. Less the 1% of population are in their shoes. With 30-50 yrs of investment time ahead. Again people play the numbers game. But time and time again finances are a behavioral problem.

@BartomeoMatthew @ElephantofLox @UziCryptoo Also you not taking in account the appreciation of the house into wealth creation
English

@ElephantofLox @UziCryptoo Could you please explain how you have peace of mind not having a mortgage? What does it change at all for you?
English

@BartomeoMatthew @breadhead84 @j32pmxr @ElephantofLox @UziCryptoo @JongLohnson67 Simple. Have you ever heard of a person with a paid off house going to bank to request a 15/30 yr note
English

@breadhead84 @j32pmxr @ElephantofLox @UziCryptoo @JongLohnson67 I'd like to study this "peace of mind". I think it's farcical.

I need you to watch this video completely. This is in Minneapolis Minnesota at the Fck ICE festival. The Hennepin County Sheriffs are out of control.
They put a daughter Paige Ostroushko in a UFC style guillotine chokehold over her dispute with Turning Point instigator Savanah Hernandez that was there all day hoping to trigger families who have lost their loved ones to ICE.... To watch her boyfriend (who's father is detained by ICE) protect her on the ground while these wolves try to break their will is just deplorable. This is the police state Trunp craves.
I was so afraid of getting arrested again or worse, but I can't turn away when it's right in my face. This was suppose to be a joyous fun festival.
Big points to my producer/cameraman shmoo420 who doesn't put up with their shit. That's his voice calling them out at the end.
