Why no one's talking about the math? Monthly expenses add to $49,000 times 12 equal $588,000 per year. That's clearly not $300,000 and not even earning $400,000 gets you to the end of the year.

[–] [email protected] 71 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Because the joke is about spending so much money on things like porn and alcohol. It's just a joke, no real statement of expenses.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 11 months ago

Somehow, spending 12k/m on Uber rides and the gym costing 7k/m too

They're paying $7k/month for a gym membership. Bad math is the joke.

[–] [email protected] 79 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Making 400k and paying rent. Highly regarded.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Renting doesn't just mean that you can't afford to buy. It's got other advantages, like not having to deal with repairs, upkeep, being able to move pretty much on a whim... Guess that's worth it to some ppl

[–] [email protected] 61 points 11 months ago (3 children)

How does one need to spend $8000 on a car and $12000 on Uber? Someone who makes $400k/year is definitely not driving around in a crappy car that breaks down a lot lol

[–] [email protected] 46 points 11 months ago

Can't drink and drive

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

In NYC of all places. The subway takes you everywhere. And nobody's mentioning the porn budget. I guess this guy is subsidising all the free porn everyone else is consuming.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Ok, so this is obvious rage bait, but by pointing this out I'm making an idiot out of myself bc everyone in this thread knows that it's rage bait and just goes along, or am I overthinking this?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (3 children)

The tweeter claims they spent 3k a month on their car while also spending 12k a month on uber. Think real hard and do try to take into account that this is c/shitposting.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

It's obviously because of the alcohol he cant actually drive the car

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

That tweeter has a blue tick. That's all we need to know about them and their finances.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Not helpful. Of course it's rage bait. I just want to know if I'm supposed to act like an idiot who doesn't get it to keep the rage baiting going or not. I can't tell if you (STRIKING2debate2) are actually stupid or just playing a dumbass

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

It's a shit post. The joke is that the person included is spending cartoonish amounts on ridiculous things. Its a shitpost in a shitposting community.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Friend, let's discuss. I mean, do we suspect something sinister? Truly, I'm curious, cause before I deleted my reddit account, I noticed for years the algorithm going in a negative direction.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 11 months ago

Yup. 2.5k a month brother. How else does one get ten onlyfans models to do your bidding at any given time? You unimaginative motherfuckers out there just make them finger themselves or shove dildos inside themselves. I am the one giving them hundreds to break government firewalls and spy on my enemies.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

Always thought they were entertainment, as they are performers. Brothels would be more in line with porn, but still could easily called entertainment.

Sounds like dude is paying for an Only Fans girlfriend experience... but then again 12000 in uber? Dude, you are in NYC take the subway.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Perhaps they confused yearly with monthly.

Reminds of a funny story. Back when I was reviewing the contract for my current job, I noticed the HR lady confused my yearly salary with monthly. That meant they were going to pay me almost $100k per month if that contract was signed!

I pointed out the mistake three times and she insisted the contract was correct. I had to contact a company director to get it corrected.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 11 months ago (1 children)

flips table YOU POINTED OUT THE MISTAKE??!!!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If I didn't, they would have figured it out before my first payment and I'd be fired on the spot without receiving a single penny.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

You still get that 1 paycheck which would be the size of yearly salary, especially if you can prove you made effort to confirm the amount prior to signing.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

😐yes. Good move.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

Clerical errors like that in contracts are typically not binding.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The 2500 a month in porn is for furry commissions.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I haven't spent a tenth of that in my lifetime and I'm 45.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Give up the Food. Plenty of calories in alcohol.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

assuming he's drinking vodka with 40%, costing 40$/liter, hes drinking about 18k kcals per day so no need for food there

[–] [email protected] 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is definitely a dril subtweet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago (3 children)

I see someone was unable to quit the gym subscription.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And I thought I had a drinking habit...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I’ve seen NYC bar prices and yeah that much alcohol would ruin my life really fast

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I bet he pays like $100 a month to go to the gym and the other $6,900 is for the medical treatment he needs to survive the alcohol he's drinking

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

But who was tax?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

How much do they spend on candles

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Asking the real question. Like, if you're spending money on premium quality porn you need to set the mood.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

This is the dumbest shit I've seen in a while. Imagine believing this shit.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I live in NYC and in Manhattan to boot, and this is such mf’ing garbage. Please, any non-NYers in this thread: do NOT think these costs are accurate. These wouldn’t be accurate anywhere.

Stop trying to bait rage and disparage NYC, OP. This is a pathetic attempt and you’re a POS for making it.

EDIT: Stupid me forgot to check the forum name before I commented. Got me, OP.🤦‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is an obvious joke post. Why do you think it's in shitposting?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Okay, fair point, I didn't check the sub name before I commented.
