  • This is actually dumber. Rating is about how well the person felt about spending the money whereas everyone really wants to know how good of a whatever it is

    So you really want to know it’s an 85 out of a hundred on an absolute scale but all you know is how people felt about spending a certain amount of money which may not even be the amount of money the merchant is changing.

    So 4 might mean people felt pretty good about spending $10 but you are being asked by Joe Bob merchant to pay 20

    If your wife was only clearing 100 per month in profit from a rental house you all must be just amazingly bad at whatever you were doing and should have sold the house as soon as you weren’t living in it. Rent has skyrocketed and home value continually risen quickly for the last 40 years. I’m not even sure how this is possible.

    Standard rent is at least 1-1.5% of current not original value per month and taxes are about that per year.

    you probably bought for 150 you earned 100,000 when it ballooned up to 250k rented it for at least 2500 a month x24 months or 60,000 paid 6000 each to taxes and management pocketed another 48,000

    When you sold realizing that cool 100k you naturally had to do all the repairs and upkeep you had been putting off so you ended up coming out of pocket for “thousands”

    In the end you netted 140k for doing 10 hours work once whereas the median worker earns 200-250

    You probably charged here so much to ensure you made the “market rate” eg people like you that she had no funds saved to actually move and you probably nickel and dimed her deposit away for stuff that was actually on you.

    Where am I wrong?


  • You said the earth being created old holds more water but it in fact does not.

    The idea that the earth was created 5 minutes ago with our entire convo and indeed your entire life being an artifact of its creation should be manifestly absurd to you as you remember differently. This doesn’t get more reasonable if you push it back to 10 minutes ago, 10 years ago, or even 6000 years ago.

    You should be able to see the continuity of the wrongness as the idea is carried backwards in time
