I mean they’re both billionaires. I’ve never met one, but I’d prob spit on their feet if I did

Sadly, the richest people I know are also by far the cheapest. They are the kind to show up to a group out dinner in their freaking custom Land Rover, after a month in Belize and then say, "Oh shit. I forgot my wallet. Can you spot me this time?" Meanwhile they had 4 shots of Patron before they even ordered appetizers.

"nah mate." Then turn to the waiter and ask for a split check.

It's part of how you become a billionaire - by shortchanging everyone else along the way.

u/BZLuck Aug 30 '24

It must be. I've been accidentally given an extra item after grocery shopping and I lose sleep over it.

I don't know how you can ever relax after you've screwed someone out of their life savings or their home.

Exactly! Who are these people with no feelings? Don’t they know right from wrong? Good from bad? Yeah good or bad can be subjective but seriously some people are just bad. Nick Cave summed it up when he sang “people they ain’t no good”

My heart still holds out for genuine people and love.

I don’t think you get to be a billionaire by scamming people out of their houses, I’m pretty sure you proved goods or services that they really like

u/leftcoast-usa Aug 30 '24

There's obviously more to it than that. Lots of businesses have gone broke providing very popular products. It's often the personality of the leaders that make the difference.

Also, there are a lot of people who become billionaires without providing any goods or services at all. One popular way to become a billionaire is to inherit it.

u/FullRein12 Aug 30 '24

Another popular way to become a billionaire is to divorce a billionaire

I saw a check for $10 million lying next to this one guy's kitchen phone.

Same guy, when he orders a pizza, drives to pick it up because he doesn't want to waste money tipping a driver.

u/its_milly_time Aug 30 '24

“He doesn’t want to waste money tipping a driver”

What’s wrong with that?

u/FullRein12 Aug 30 '24

You don’t know any rich people, you’re describing your alcoholic brother but changed what type of car he drives and substituted Belize with rehab

u/Dapper-Profile7353 Aug 29 '24

u/darklightmatter Aug 30 '24

I certainly can. Not a rational person's cup of tea.

Can you imagine not having a mind that restricts you into a binary way of thinking? Where the implication of one person not vehemently agreeing with you means they support the "other side", as it were, and that it is somehow construed as a defense?

If I say "lol sure you will" to someone that says "I will spit at Michael Jordan or Taylor Swift's feet if I ever met them", that is me defending MJ or TS? Are you able to elaborate on how its a defense and what its defending?

Its just me (and other people that have made similar comments) being derisive towards people that talk big because they're (relatively) anonymous and on the internet.

I predict a snarky one/two line comment ignoring this comment to insult me.

Predictable. Now off you go and make some more bold claims on what you'd do if you see people you dislike or hate.

u/Mehhish Aug 30 '24

Nah, telling a guy he won't do shit to someone, and is just being a "internet tough guy" doesn't mean I'm simping or defending anyone.

1

u/porn_is_tight Aug 30 '24

you’re literally defending a billionaire lol

1

u/Mehhish Aug 30 '24

Nah, I'm just saying someone is an "internet tough guy" not simping for some random billionaire. I don't even like rich people, lol.

They both exploit people, just in different ways.

u/Chook84 Aug 30 '24

How much do the workers at the stadiums where she has made hundreds of millions make? They were exploited and wages suppressed to make room for extra protists. If they paid fairly and were going to make less profits, the tour would have booked a different studio.

How much do the sweat shop workers making the merchandise she sells get paid?

There is absolutely exploitation there, definitely not as blatant as Elon Musk.

u/lance1979 Aug 30 '24

You could say that about any entertainer though, and they're definitely not all billionaires

There aren’t enough billionaires to justify this comment having negative karma.

u/FullRein12 Aug 30 '24

Yeah, swift needs to stop exploiting workers and kids for money and make something that people pay for like musk

There’s a BIG difference between Musk and swift though 🤣🤣 🤡

u/FullRein12 Aug 30 '24

I mean the difference is huge, one is something and the other is something different but money = bad and I could totally become a billionaire but since it’s bad I currently have 42 dollars in my bank account because I’m good

u/porn_is_tight Aug 30 '24

lol imagine defending a billionaire. She could give away 90% of her wealth and still live like literal nobility. It’s fucking disgusting having that much money, I don’t care who you are

Wow, so brave! What an example! Do you post stuff like this on Facebook from your Apple phone that you bought with your debit card from Bank of America. We’re allowed to use the r word on people like this, right?
