I'd do it for 50k. I estimate that's what I need to set everything up so the rest of my life goes much easier.
I'd obviously ask for more, but let's be realistic we're talking life changing amounts of money here
It’s crazy how Republicans have made a year’s salary of money into something that seems so impossible to do without making an NDA deal with a billionaire who cant keep his dick in his pants lmao.
Like obviously that’s a lot at once anywhere you go back in time… but it’s also basically nothing in this fuck ass country where a few catastrophes can utterly obliterate your chances of ever leaving poverty.
Let's not get carried away here. I can make 50k eventually, but to be given it as a lump sum is a big deal. Like you said it's a year's salary.
50k is enough to get a decent car and a down-payment on a decent home (outside of the major metros) nothing to sneeze at.
Honestly a year's wage is a lot to recieve all at once anywhere in the world.
Knowing that there’s trillions in unpaid taxes, I feel as if though we are all deserved 20 hour work weeks and massive government subsidies while we get to watch a bunch of tech bros duke it out to the death in a gladiator style arena where their dork asses are given nothing but their own hands
I can support this
