  • Actually according to Wintermoot you can't be in both.  Chanku was slightly teased /chastised for doing this when he ran earlier this month.

    Then I intend to put that entirely unspoken arrangement into proper law. The Overhusen is not an ungoverned body like the Riksrad and is thus deserving of the attention of the law.
    I believe that's in the law already.  as I said see the most recent election.

  • I don't think it's wise to present oneself as a con man during an election...it's certainly an unusual tactic. :P

    Congrats on 1000, Gov. :)

  • It has been implied by my rich as fuck grandparents that I'm getting a new laptop for Christmas

    Man, I wish I had me some rich as fuck grandparents, for exactly this sort of thing...Lucky you Nox. Unfortunately my used-to-be-rich-as-fuck grandparents have now decided to live comfortably within their means. It's a nice sentiment, but, uh...MONEY

  • But it certainly fucking helps with all the other things.
    Face the facts of being what you are, for that is what changes what you are.

  • Am I the only one that doesn't want to be wealthy?

    I'm poor as shit currently and my family is poor as shit. I still like my life just the way it is. I mean, sure, sometimes I dream of winning the jackpot or something, but then I reflect on what I would do with it, and that would be jack shit. I'd sit on my millions, invest them and live off the interest to never have to work a single day of my life. I'd be so, so lazy if I were wealthy, so I think maybe I shouldn't be.

    Usually, money usually naturally comes in the way of lawyering in Canada (not so in the US), so I'm thinking either I do that Jesuit stuff I've talked about or I pledge myself to donate enough of my salary so that it really comes down to 50-60k per year in my pocket. It's all I need, really. Hell, it's all anybody needs.

    I don't like wealth. Wealth corrupts. I'm ever distrustful of rich people, especially since that stupid fucking ruling in the US, that affluenza crap thing.

    I mean that's a load of horse shit. Probation for killing 4 people while driving drunk as a sack of dicks, because mister was born in a rich family. Sure, money corrupts. That doesn't mean you can get away with killing people.

    Yeah, it's the sweet spot. Not too much, not too little, as long as you've got no debts.

    Besides, when I start practicing law, I'll have to pay my depressing student debt, so it'll be a while before I get to give to charity :P

    But once that's done, I'm never taking on any debt, ever. It's too terrifying, I speak from present experience. Just a small credit card for Internet purchases that I will pay on the dot.

  • 50k-60k a year would be nice. 100k-200k/yr would be nicer. 500-999k+ would be the nicest. ;3



    On a none money related matter, today went rather well at work. We got a lot of stuff done and now tensions have eased a bit.

  • Debt is pretty much a requirement for modern society. Between one credit, one auto loan, and one housing loan, I'm currently $95,000 in debt, and I live in an area where housing is relatively cheap. I suppose technically you could rent, but in some areas renting is even more expensive than paying a mortgage.

    I think I'd be happy with $500k/year max. Enough to outright own a home, be able to do anything I could want within reason, and save some in the bank. I think I'd put most of it into building a customized home. :P
