You bit yourself and now you’ve got this little bruise forming under the skin. Just as a precaution, the doctor is sending a sample off for testing. What do you think they’ll find? Black gold?
Look, you can't exactly walk away from an inheritance if the probate process hasn't even kicked off yet. And let's be real here—it clearly hasn't, since Grandma is still kicking around...
What kind of estimates, purchase orders, or contracts are we even talking about here? Look, it's because most of what he does is totally off the books—just a bunch of handshakes and verbal agreements. If he actually hands you a bill, it’s usually just filed under "freelance creative work" rather than an actual business expense from a legitimate company...
Let’s not play guessing games here; I'll just wait until 3:00... So, are we talking about occasional vomiting—like you have those days where your digestion is just kind of "meh"—or is this constant nausea hitting you all the time? And what else are you feeling? Any other symptoms acting up?
What would be his first major issue? (I feel like his digestion would totally go south in maybe 3 or 4 days?) Like, what would actually land him in the ER?
A bowel obstruction. I don't know the fancy medical term for it right now, but you know what I mean... But honestly, his digestion might not even be the main thing; he could probably survive on just chocolate for quite a while... I mean, if he's eating like 7 ounces of chocolate a day, he’d technically stay alive without gaining any weight...
The third thing you gotta look at is having actual capital sitting there ready to go. Entrepreneurial families usually have more skin in the game, which means they actually have the bankroll to back up their moves—and more importantly, they can just hand that cash over to a family member to get things moving. Everyone else? They’re basically forced to gamble with their entire life savings unless they’re straight-up degenerate gamblers or they've got some crazy high level of certainty that they aren't going to crash and burn.
Carl Cox, goldengull3 is totally spot on here. The guy’s in one of those higher tax brackets, so of course he’s looking at what people in those same pay scales are pulling overseas. But the real kicker isn't the money—it's whether he can actually land a gig paying that much over there. It’s honestly not even rare to see our engineers heading abroad only to end up working construction or grinding away as machinists or electricians just because they have a degree.
Oh, you absolutely can. For example, someone could come after you for emotional distress caused by posting their info. Depending on who we're talking about, leaking their number might result in them getting bombarded with calls—some people being "well-meaning" and others being straight-up creeps. That kind of thing causes real issues, like losing your mind, wasting a business professional's time, or even dealing with actual threats. As for actual cash damages—like the cost of changing a phone number or playing phone tag to update contacts—that's probably negligible, but still. Basically, if that person has a decent lawyer on speed dial, you’re gonna have a bad time. And look, when someone goes out of their way to keep their number private, there’s usually a damn good reason for it.
Look, man, these guys can barely be bothered to scroll through a few old threads on a forum—and we’ve got at least a hundred of them sitting right there—let alone actually clicking over to a bank's website to do some real digging.. It's just way easier for them to sit around waiting for someone to hand them the answers on a silver platter..
Of course. We’re looking at a 5% to 15% chance of infection here. Basically, it’s about 5-10% for guys and 10-15% for women. And even if you do catch it, it doesn't mean you'll start feeling sick right away...
Don't take me too literally here... I'm talking about some microscopic amoeba or bacteria just floating around on a speck of dust in the air before landing right on those eggs. If there was enough time for that little bugger to multiply into a full-blown colony on them... then you're looking at a situation where the diarrhea and vomiting are basically just your body's way of staging a violent coup to kick that sickness out...
