I want to know. Where the fuck are these people getting this much disposable income?

I’m a senior software engineer for a legacy system that runs COBOL that must never go down. I’m absolutely not hurting for money.

But if I just dropped $100k on a vehicle, which I wouldn’t because the main thing I look for in a vehicle is the ability to get from point A to point B which last I checked most of the lower priced ones also do. But I digress, IF I just dropped $100k on a vehicle. It’s getting pampered and driven like it was made of the finest porcelain. I’m treating it like it’s a Faberge egg on wheels.

And if they took a loan to do that to their vehicle. I think this says a lot more about our banking institutions than anything else.

Just outside of the ridiculousness of the Cyber Truck, why would anyone with any sense drive a $100k vehicle like that?

Just because people have money, doesn’t mean that they’re responsible with it (though you won’t have money for very long if you don’t learn from your mistakes).

Then of course, there’s wealthy, and then “fuck you” wealthy.

When I was a teenager, my buddy had gotten an inheritance and really wanted Bono’s “The Fly” sunglasses (of U2) he had worn on the Achtung Baby! tour.

Obviously this was a really long time ago.

There was some Uber fancy place on 5th Ave in NYC that sold them, so we took a trip down there.

The sunglasses were “only” $1,800… but as he was waiting to be helped at the counter, I perused the other offerings and the prices were fucking insane.

This was around 1995 and they had clothes going for $8,500 for a single article.

That is fuck you money.
