Why didn’t I think of buying a lake house!?

Clemens concludes the snippet with this closing thought: “My word of advice for anybody that’s feeling invited into the rage mob of the day, is, hey man, get off social media. Go buy a lake house, get a beach house. Do something. Get in debt and get off social media. Don’t get invited into all this rage.”
Ah yes the classic pacifying debt

They’re cheap if you’re not too picky about the location.

Bottom of the lake is pretty cheap iirc.

Sure, this a dumpster, but the beach is a mere 10 miles that way.

I mean buying things wont and fuck this guy, but if I could just casually buy a lake house I would’ve fucked off to an isolated one a long time ago. Like all these rich fucks should have done the moment they made enough money to do so.

It's why I maintain it's some sort a mental illness. There is absolutely something wrong with you if you have more than enough money to buy whatever the fuck you want and decide that's not enough.

So here’s the thing, you aren’t incorrect, but what is really troubling is that it might not be something you have from birth, for some sure it is(Musk is a great example of how being a piece of shit is congenital sometimes) but having that much money and power is straight up bad for your brain. I don’t have a source handy as I’m on mobile while i cook dinner, but I’m pretty certain Cody’s Showdy did an episode on it not too long ago, as in this year.
Doesn’t give an excuse for becoming a bag of severed dicks but it does tell me if I ever luck into some crazy money to get myself set with the smallest amount possible so I never need to work again as quickly as I can, and give the rest away

Sure would make it more laborious, dragging the guillotine around to each of their doors, amirite?

Honestly, if you make your money, take it and fuck off, and stop using it to manipulate/control other people and the world around you. I ain’t got a problem with ya. I can’t think of a single billionaire that does all of those things. I’m sure there’s some quite ones that are still fucking around behind the scenes, fuck them, they should be eaten too.
But some dude that made 100 million on Mindspring or whatever and retired, stopped trying to make more. Isn’t flexing on the locals wherever they ended up. I’ll let that person slide, they’re not the real problem
