    The only link between organized retail crime and any other illicit activity is money. If a group is into organized retail crime, chances are they are into other illegal money makin…

    I’m worried about the 10,000,000x version which may emerge organically at some point in time.

    If this is not worth it for you (maybe it is because of amenities), couldn’t you just buy a place closer to where your parents live?

    As a TSA-precheck member, I’ve never felt like part of the ruling class until today. Bow before me and tremble!

    You are correct. The parent’s home plus some assets of two other individuals probably totaling a max of $5 million but nowhere close to $250 million - which was a stupid amount to …

    That’s why Banana Stands will never lose their popularity.

    Idk, this article seems hopelessly naive. So, the author would essentially like to go back in time to a less morally ambiguous internet when people (i.e. techies and nerds) had eng…

    I don’t believe the goons would be operating on the principle of your moral right to the furs, rather they would be taking the more practical approach of believing you can provide …

    If the bodyguards had the ability to expropriate greater quantities of wealth, they wouldn’t be bodyguards.

    Sure you can overpower me and steal everything I have - once. Or you can join me and I’ll provide you a better living than those others for the rest of your life.

    As a group expands in size, don’t the opportunities for an individual to amass wealth, and then translate that to power, also increase significantly?

    My peasants do net fairly sizable tax revenue (largely in sheep, some gold as well) but I would hardly call that “passive”, what with all the galloping around the countryside with …

    Aka, let me introduce you to why the Democrats are going to get pummeled in the upcoming midterms.

    Yeah, I can imagine if it’s for a legit reason (especially in a hot market like the other poster pointed out), the seller would probably try to work something out. I would feel lik…

    But you’re sacrificing the flexibility of renting. While I agree the benefits of home ownership far outweigh long term renting, there are some trade-offs.

    It is not a fundamental human need to live in a super cute townhome in a hot walkable neighborhood near lots of other people you’d like to socialize with. If you want free housing,…

    You can still back out of the deal but you will typically forfeit your deposit or earnest money (sometimes in the $10’s of thousands). But I hear you with the seller’s market - we …
