Bluff says a $120,000 jackpot win destroyed his dad’s life
"Back in 1987 or 1988 he hit a $120,000 Keno jackpot. He would always tell me and my sister stories about gambling, 'I know how to beat this.' All the things a real addict would say. He won $120,000 and bought our house with it, bought a car, and whatever else."
"As we're growing up the house isn't paid off. He's struggling to pay the mortgage on $30,000 a year from VA disability. When he passes away we start digging into his finances. The house was $80,000 when he bought it and somehow he still owes $70,000."
"When we really dug into it, he had taken out multiple loans against the house. $67,000 on the mortgage, a hidden HELOC for $53,000, and another for around $30,000. This $80,000 house had $200,000 against it. We found out when he took those loans and it was all during the time he was gambling. The $120,000 jackpot gave him that dopamine hit and he just never stopped."
The UK won two world wars and Japan lost one horrifically. Yet it’s Japan that is still a culturally homogeneous, high-trust, low-crime country.
Mass immigration does more damage to your nation than being hit with a nuclear bomb.
i lowkey fuck with how there’s no jobs and rent is infinity money and food is infinity money and fun activities are infinity money and every kind of side hustle is completely flooded and everyone’s angry and mean all the time
I'm just a guy who's looking for things that ACTUALLY WORK and am astonished by the fact that the current world we're living in is so inefficient in myriad of ways, out of some handful of things almost nothing really works, and people somehow don't go crazy or mad at this fact.
What's happening in Minnesota is a microcosm of the immigriation fraud in our system. Politicans like it because they get power. Welfare cheats like it because they get rich.
But it's a zero sum game, and they're stealing both money and political power from Minnesotans.
🚨 LMAO! The number of people outside Tim Walz’s house screaming “RETARD” has DRAMATICALLY increased
I can’t imagine ANYONE who deserves this honor more
Well done, patriots 🤣
As an adult, I've thrice encountered a type of person I despise:
The high-achiever who stops chatting with you—after having a great, close, years-long relationship—the moment they no longer perceive you as useful toward gaining power and success in their career path.
ALS took Nick’s arm mobility. Now, he can control a robotic arm with his Neuralink device to feed himself.
“Life with my BCI has been and continues to be so surreal and so rewarding. Can’t wait to see what comes next!”
They are cooking us everywhere. AI, health tech, clean and ordered cities, their smartphone tech is way ahead, robotics, drones. Amazing what homogenous societies can accomplish. Meanwhile the West is babysitting and importing low iq feral savages.
