@Bagalamaga not if we freeze it all and make it impossible
Bagalamaga · 56-60, M
@SW-User freeze what? Jewelry,real estate on the guy’s uncle’s company’s name,Stocks and bonds on the wife’s sister’s name? Everyone has getaway money man..rich people are not stupid to lay everything out in the bank for everyone to see

@Bagalamaga take it all away no matter who's name it's under they don't deserve it

@SW-User this kind of thinking is wrong man.
SW-User
@Bagalamaga they think the same about the poor people. "they don't deserve anything"
Bagalamaga · 56-60, M
@SW-User deserves meaning handing out free money? What would drive the economy then?
SW-User
@Bagalamaga they think poor people don't deserve anything like being able to afford a place to live, food to eat, anything needed to survive

@SW-User you gotta get out and get your own stuff in life man..nobody “deserves “ anything. People earn things in life
SW-User
@Bagalamaga yeah and i work hard for what little i do have. i WORK unlike those trust fund fucks

@SW-User you gotta work smart and hard. Have goals and make plans to get there. This mindset of yours will drag you down throughout your life. Make sure your kids have a trust fund if you have any children. Most importantly,look down sometimes. Not only up. Half the world would kill to be in your position.
SW-User
@Bagalamaga my kids wont ever get a trustfund cause I don't have it to give to them.
Bagalamaga · 56-60, M
@SW-User do you know what a trust fund is?
SW-User
@Bagalamaga yeah it's a huge sum of money rich people give to their kids
Bagalamaga · 56-60, M
@SW-User no. It’s a sum of money people collect so then they can give it to the trustees,whoever they might be. Count all the money you spent on stupid shit in the past 15-20 years. You could have set up a trust fund instead
SW-User
@Bagalamaga yeah a huge sum of money

@SW-User now you’re just trolling. Easier to blame the world than it is to actually do something
SW-User
@Bagalamaga How am I trolling? I'm stating my opinion and I know I am not alone. What can be done when your hands are tied
Bagalamaga · 56-60, M
@SW-User unless you chained to your bed all day long,this is just bullshit excuse. Did you set up a trust fund? No. Because you didn’t have one to give..You could give 15-20 grand to your kid to start life ,which is not much but better than zero. Instead of that,fuck the rich! That's the spirit👍🏻

@SW-User then change it. Get a second job. Or a new one. Buy and sell stuff,make some profit on the side. You’re living in America not sierra leone right?
SW-User
@Bagalamaga america does not give the opportunities everyone thinks it does
Bagalamaga · 56-60, M
@SW-User sure it does. Every first world country does. Some people just never live with the given opportunities. Successful people don’t think like you do. Wealth is a mindset. Until you don’t change yours,this situation of yours will continue
@Bagalamaga Agreed. When I moved back to TX from CA I had less than $2K. No savings, no 401K, nothing of value, nothing. Within four years of hard work and saving up I leveraged what I had built up and bought a condo in a nice neighborhood as well as paid off a two-year old nice car a couple of years later.

I noticed that when I worked hard and stopped complaining and blaming others or some strange outside force like "the man" that my life actually got better.

If you Do Nothing, you can Expect Nothing. The world is incredibly unfair and nothing is free, yes work is hard but the benefits do come. Complaining and blaming is easy.
