@texasrunnerDFW Prop tax should be higher for older people in houses over certain sqft. Stop bailing out boomers at every turn.

What people who want to cancel property taxes are really advocating for is higher sales taxes and higher income tax The burden of both those is disproportionately carried by young, working families at the height of their income and consumption stage in life

@sssabrene Too many Indians.

anybody live in texas and care to tell me what it’s like

@DocStrangelove2 Compared to factories or similar sized farms, data centers aren’t that bad environmentally

@BoomerDivvies Imagine living in the easiest economy ever and still being poor.

Everyone acts like all boomers are rich. They’re not. We grew up in a much less wealthy world than what you have now. In the USA half of boomers would be living in poverty if not for Social Security. There’s a reason we have 70 y/o Walmart greeters.

@BTCBreadMan Make him pay the difference

Took my 16 year old to look at cars today. At first he loved the Toyota Camry we looked at, but when he saw the seats were cloth he hard vetoed it. They have another one with leather seats, but it’s an XLE and costs $5k more. How can I change his mind so I can save some money?

@kaizenhacker @Stake4z @DennisCW_ The money itself is free. The car is not.

@SkinnyFatJAMO @Stake4z @DennisCW_ It's a collatoralized loan. You must carry insurance AND not wreck the car AND pay it off to sell the car. You can't take the car out of the loan just cause you want to call it free.

Overheard in LA today: “I just got a 0% for 6 years on New Tesla Model Y” Other person: “daaaang , that’s free money! “

@kaizenhacker @Stake4z @DennisCW_ It is by definition free money. Interest is cost of money, 0% interest is free money. Depreciation on the car is beside the point.

@Stake4z @DennisCW_ Loans must be paid back. The are by definition NOT free. If in 1 years time the person wants to sell their car, and they are upside down...they have LOST money on the purchase regardless of the 0% interest rate.

@SussexHenryVIII Buying votes. Same as every other time someone gets breaks

I really don’t get the obsession with giving the wealthiest generation that has ever existed break after break.

@NotA_Bull Okay now do renting

Buying a primary residence is a liability, not an investment. You're paying interest, taxes, and maintenance on something that produces zero cash flow. Change my mind.

@unusual_whales Per super duper liberal organization

"Immigrants generate more income and taxes than the average person," per CATO Institute.

@theficouple Probably engagement bait but Roth IRA contributions can be withdrawn with zero penalty or tax.

Spoke with a couple from Dallas, Tx: Age 39 & 42 and their balance sheet: - Home equity: $395,500 - 401k's: $300,000 - Roth IRA's: $110,000 - Cash: $21,200 - Taxable brokerage: $40,000 ...Can't touch 90% of their wealth and feeling trapped in high stress jobs.

@Milajoy Of course a boomer expects city services for free

My home is paid off. Why do I have to pay property taxes on it?

@OskarBakweSZN All or nothing next 2 years

Cowboy fans, here is the scenario: Say we are 6-3 going into the bye, we have the best offense itl and a top 15 defense, however our one weakness is CB1 Would you be willing to trade our 2027 1st round pick for a really good CB such as Denzel Ward for example?

@DomWWhite Sorry but the first 3 picks will start at some capacity day 1. The bar is just that low.

For now, the #Cowboys likely walked away from this draft with 1 starter, Caleb Downs. That’s okay. A couple others will provide quality depth with a chance of becoming starters or key contributors within the next two seasons. Depth has often been DAL issue.

@happiestporch You’re a cornball

I’m about to piss off a lot more people here…look, I get he’s still a Cadet…but his service commitment is fully delayed til his NFL stint is over…this just feels a little performative…really with the uniform? Bro, you owe the Marine Corps 10 years now…🤣😂🤣

@TheAlphaThought Renters pay all the same plus a profit margin to the landlord.

Your mortgage is not an investment. You're paying interest, maintenance, property tax, and insurance for 30 years on an asset you can't liquidate in 10 minutes. Call it what it is: expensive shelter.

@michaelmiraflor House prices will never “collapse” on a national average, maybe on local terms. Additionally, When the currency inflates 3-6% a year forever, you have to get assets now.

This is why I’m on Team Rent Forever until the next housing market collapse when prices chill out and rates reset to <4% (one can dream)

@barneyxbt Bitcoin fixes this.

90% of everyone here has done nothing but get rug pulled and roundtrip life changing money after 16 years no one is using crypto for anything useful.. we are being led into a cashless fed regulated system quicker than you think

@texasrunnerDFW Go look him how many 30 year mortgages ACTUALLY reach the full term

If you buy a $650,000 house with a 30 year mortgage and put 10% down, by 2056 you will have paid $719,000 in interest to finally own the home outright

@SleeperCowboys @JFowlerESPN Very nice.

Cowboys are signing Baylor tight end Michael Trigg, according to @JFowlerESPN.
