>> ^blankfist: I don't think imstellar28 is saying it's "high living". I think he's saying if you stay within your means $15k could be enough anywhere in the country. It may not be the best, but it can serve most just fine.
Except in LA or NY. You will struggle your asses off in LA or NY on $15k. Though, I do remember making less than that when I got to LA in 1999 and I did ok. I had enough money to go out and visit bars and take care of myself.
No, you really can't do much living on $15k, Blankie. There are very few places in the USA where that would be the kind of income you could live on, even here in Roswell.
You're not going to be able to pay for your retirement with that kind of money. You're not going to get much of a health care package, if at all. You'll barely be able to own and operate a car. The list is long.
And if one little thing goes wrong, you're screwed.
>> ^imstellar28: Thats hyperbole if I ever heard it. $15,080 a year = $1256 a month. I don't care what city you live in you can find a $500 a month apartment.
15k isn't enough money to live on for most Americans because most Americans spend their money like fucking retards...which isn't much surprise, because most American's are fucking retards. It has absolutely nothing to do with cost of living.
>> ^longde: ^if the coat of living was the same the world over, you would have a valid point. 15k in the US gets you a tent city address.
I can totally understand adding a mandatory 15% gratuity for parties over a certain size.
I've never waited, but I've bussed tables and I've been with groups that always had cheapskates who thought that tipping was beneath them. Hell, half the time they wouldn't pay their own fair share of the bill anyway.
I don't like to admit that I hate anybody, but I fucking hate Ann Coulter.
She also made the most asinine argument against legalization that I hear from some people all of the time: that anybody can get it if they really want it.
That maybe be true, in some places, and anybody could get ripped off by a criminal or arrested by a cop in the process, too.
Legalization removes those two very real threats to one's wellbeing.
Empathy is pretty important. He mentioned it at about the 20/min mark.
I remember as a child I was very empathetic, but I lost it along the way.
I know that I have driven past horrendous highway casualties, yet I have seen similar scenarios...on video...from all around the world, and everybody ran to help.
Why don't we run to help each other now, we Americans?
Too busy? Too important?
Or because it would cost us to help our fellow man/woman/child?
We're doing something wrong here.
The world will be better off when we start doing things right.
