    Adventures with Lyrical: Buying a Business (REPOST)

    The answer I got back from him today was that he didn't have a seizure, but tripped over his dog's chain and hit the cement. He said his wife was confused, because he used to have seizures 3-4 years ago. He's had a rough life for a 35 year old. He was raised as a ward of the state. He also...

    Adventures with Lyrical: Buying a Business (REPOST)

    So I had an employee who has been working here four months have a seizure tonight in his off hours. His wife called and said he hit his head on the concrete. I believe that if he has a seizure while operating heavy equipment, I'm liable. Advice? He's a great worker, but the chance of death...

    Adventures with Lyrical: Buying a Business (REPOST)

    I hate to say it, but my crews use a personal credit card. We bought back in the mortgage meltdown. It used to be pretty hard to get a credit card back then. We've forgotten to get a new one, now that things have changed.

    This has had to be the worst round of playoffs in history.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    Unbelievable how one-sided the playoffs have been for most of the games. Most of the games have had 0 entertainment.

    Did you guys know the Packers had injury issues? It's only the 10th time they brought it up in the commentary.

    They've been saying the same thing about Tom Brady, hopefully the next game treats him the same as Rodgers.

    How much income is enough?

    I don't live in that community, so what's your point? Not even 5% of our dealers were a minority. They were all White and fucked up in the head, just like you.

    How much income is enough?

    I'll take my several hundred data points as evidence enough. Perhaps if you ever leave your mother's basement and make some money, you'll see that it doesn't fulfill you. I know the studies claim that it makes people happier, but they didn't dig deep enough. If you sit there comparing...

    How much income is enough?

    You are a jackass. I've hung out with the ultra rich, and they are no happier than normal, middle class folk. A lot of them are popping pills/doing coke/drinking alcohol non-stop. They wake up trapped. Comparing yourself to your neighbor only gets you in worse trouble. Things don't make...

    How much income is enough?

    Except for when you or a loved one have an illness that there's no cure for. I've learned I have very little control over life. It's going to be a combination of joy and pain no matter what I'm worth. Only there's less pain than not being able to pay your bills or eat. There will still be...

    How much income is enough?

    I have an 11 and a 6 year old. The 11 year old listens and asks questions. She hears us contracting, and the amounts, and she asks if we have money. We let her know, we have money, and she doesn't. I've seen so many asshole rich kids when I worked with an Automaker. Most of them inherited...

    How much income is enough?

    I do. It's easy to try to build a castle devoted to yourself. It's been tempting, but the house I'm in is too large for me, and I'm not wanting to drop 2m when this house is only 350k in debt.

    How much income is enough?

    Compared to my total income, I still don't think I spend 20% of my pay on living expenses/entertainment.

    How much income is enough?

    Thanks. Now that I'm on the brink of paying my business off, and my weekly pay will increase by $4,250, I spend a lot of time pondering my place in the universe, and how I can give back. WTH am I supposed to do now? The answer is to build a legacy that will last another generation or two...

    How much income is enough?

    I remember when people made fun of my 1,600 square foot house, after I made the title of Field Executive. I lived in a suburb of Austin, and only paid 120k for my house. People would ask me why I was living below my means. Because 55% of every dollar that came in went out to be invested in...

    How much income is enough?

    I've lived in a different world, after college. Even when I wasn't making much money on the corporate teat, I was a District Manager for an automaker. Every dealer I had was worth millions. One of them was a Billionaire. I got their monthly financials, and it was a part of their contract to...

    How much income is enough?

    The hypothesis works for those that are shallow and weak-minded. Hell, I'm so busy, and my neighbors are all Executives or Doctors, so they are busy too. I couldn't tell you the name of any of my neighbors. I see cars ranging from $50-200k here, but I never felt compelled to buy one. My wife...

    How much income is enough?

    I could give less than a single fuck what other people make that live around me. When I worked for an automanufacturer, I used to get a new car every three months (no expense to me). I remember, I was straight out of college. I had a neighbor (who I didn't know), come up to me a year later...

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    I linked it in January, but hey, if you want to sound like you one upped me, go ahead. Fuck you and every other Cowboys' fan. You wonder why we don't like your team. It's because of douche bags like you.

    Except I linked you a post earlier this week from January 2016, after my team went 6-10 for two years straight. Now what? Have you picked a new bandwagon yet?

    Actually, I hate them all. In order of hate, it goes Jerry Jones, the retarded fans and then the players. I hate the players last, because they can't control who drafts them, and are receiving millions of dollars in exchange for their souls.
