@Urunzii True. But actually, a house just needs to be suitable for living in. There's no need for it to be too large. The money earned can be spent elsewhere.
The guy selling you the dream barely got out of high school. You think of all the Economics, Finance and Business classes you took for a street hustler to come teach you about money. Don't. I always ask them one question then watch them squirm: What's in it for you?
Legitimately curious to hear your thoughts…
In your day-to-day interactions with people, do you find that people are less intelligent today than in years past?
Schrödinger’s flirting…I’m not flirting with you unless you want me to be. And if you don’t, then obviously I was joking the entire time. The intentions exist in a quantum state you’ll never fully decode.
Activist: "Wool is cruel. The sheep should be left alone."
Farmer: "Alone where?"
Activist: "In a sanctuary."
Farmer: "Doing what."
Activist: "Just being a sheep."
Farmer: "Sheep have been bred for ten thousand years to grow a fleece that doesn't stop. If I don't shear her, she overheats, gets fly strike, and dies in her own coat with maggots eating her from the skin down."
Activist: "Then breed sheep that don't grow wool."
Farmer: "We did. They're called mouflon. They live on cliffs in Sardinia and would last forty minutes on a Welsh hillside before something ate them."
Activist: "I just don't think we should use animals for clothing."
Farmer: "What's your jumper made of."
Activist: "...recycled polyester."
Farmer: "Plastic, then. Sheds microfibre into the washing machine every wash. The fibres go through the filter, into the river, into the fish, into you. When you're done with it, it sits in a landfill for four hundred years. My sheep's fleece composts in a hedge in eighteen months and grew back on her this spring."
Activist: "But the sheep didn't consent."
Farmer: "She was lying down with her eyes closed when I finished. She got up and went back to eating. I'd suggest you ask her how she feels, but she's busy, and I think she's already given her answer."
You can put a bunch of complete idiots in front of a mic and they’ll instantly appear as more intelligent than they are, which is how most podcasts work.
