This dip is a gift.

The U.S. sucks ass. Even if you are rich you can only enjoy it unless you are a degenerate hedonist. ie Hunter Biden.

Warehouse space went from $4.80 an annual squarefoot to over $10 sq/ft and houses went from 80k to over 200k for the same fucking house. I need to work twice as hard just to maintain the same life style. My plans of running a company while living abroad are fucking ruined.

Boomers speculating on real estate literally made more money than what my profitable company is worth. Why should I be out over 700k over 30 years because I was a year or two late to buy real estate? It's fucking bullshit.

No wonder people are dropping out.

Anon I work for a large financial enterprise let me shine some light on this situation.

1. The 100k is probably based on the value the protocol captures or the profit it makes.
2. They give you an option how to lower this amount (read shill other L2)
3. They will still sell chain link tokens since it's literally free money made out of thin air.
4. They will make sure the amount being payed is not to much to open the possibility of a competitor to offer a similar service.

It's normal to give something for free and when people see the value to capitalise on it. Look at ChatGPT.

>Imagine not taking the same side of the dollar debt trade as the Whore of Babylon.

yeah, I already told you I fucked up. However, pay attention when tyrannical imprisonment occurs of dissidents who mis-used economic disaster loans. It's coming.

I regret not loading up on easy debt. I wasn't at my best during 2021 and 2022, and i'm still not. Facts are not the basis for our reality. it is not something that can have perpetual motion.

The government gave the elite exit liquidity.

Why isn't this discussed more

Anon, it's fairly simple it's not about the product or service you sell. It's always about the career of the people above you.

Basically a manager with 3 fte is seen more as a loser then someone with 30fte. If you got the 30 fte and you produce acceptable output you will never get fired and probably promoted. Also you always got enough hands to deliver. If you for example have 10 fte but only work for 8 you keep the 10 fte. Reason for this is you can always deliver (even when someone is sick etc) and every employee is more happy (less overworked). Now think what happen when you cut down to 8 and then 1 get a burn out. You can't deliver, you have to hire external, have to discuss with your director about additional funds have to explain how you couldn't prevent this etc.

Ask me anything btw about white collar work. Worked on different levels and I'm pretty sure I figured out the game.

In the old days if you where good looking you would find your wife through church. If you where ugly you would be matched to an ugly wife. And the rarest cases would get widows or wife's that where dumped. A lot of shitty mariages came from those arrangements but also a lot of good ones. At least everyone could experience having a wife and if lucky some kids.

Plan knowledge sessions, record the whole session. When he ask a question tell him it was mentioned in the knowledge session. When he complains tell management he isn't looking at the material you provided.

>Seems incredibly comfy imo

i don't think it's comfy, but I wanted to become a merchant marine. those niggers wanted a bachelor degree before the academy. I'm not sure it's a good gig anymore. sailors are mutts from shitholes now, and they get paid peanuts.
