There is one thing for uber wealthy people to act poor but I dont care if a wealthy person finds happiness in a frugal lifestyle. Sharing in cultures is vital to the human experience.
The crazy thing is that i i were filthy rich, the only thing that would change is that i wouldn’t go to work anymore, and i’d probably invest in some sort of farm/weekly market where you can buy actually fresh and cheap veggies and things like that and i wouldn’t have to care if it makes money. So i totally get that aspect of it. But pretending to be a complete hippie and selling that lifestyle while you’re clearly not, just seems weird
See if there are any Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) orgs in your area, I used to go pick up a big box of produce every week at the farm where they grew them, was cool
Not trying to be a contrarian but a lot of hippies were from rich backgrounds which is why they didn’t have to work to begin with.
Farmers markets, there usually held on weekends around here, get fresh fruit and vegetables from local growers.
I don’t think they needed to be educated on what a farmer’s market is.
They are saying they’d stand a new one up
Where I am at least, the veggies can also be double to triple the price of the grocery store.
I don’t disagree with your sentiment taken in a vacuum, but gentrification (of housing and activities in general) is 100% a real thing and is almost always due to rich people trying to live a “frugal lifestyle.” Idk man, shit just sucks all around
Yeah, I get that but the complaint that these people with wealthy parents get to focus on art and lifestyle is a failure of the system not the person.
We should all be able to do that but only the wealthy can, so spread the wealth yeah but dont hate on arts and independent thought, trying new things and seeking an environment you enjoy.

There’s this weird in between that many sister in law lives in. She buys everything at thrift stores but it’s those trendy super expensive thrift stores lol
trendy super expensive thrift stores
This truly is the darkest timeline. Definitely the stupidest 🤦
Had a real waking up moment last week leaving one of my favorite venues seeing the band Chat Pile in a crowd of crusty, unwashed, punks, only to look at the parking lot after the show and see it filled with current model year Teslas, Mercedes, etc.
To be fair, there are also cases especially for older bands where their fanbase who were teens and young adults during their prime are now 40-50 year olds with families and are better off financially than they were back then.
How anyone can financially improve right now is beyond me
They can’t. Gen X was the last generation that got wealthier with age and it’s gotten progressively worse for every subsequent generation.
They can it’s called getting a better job. There are tons of jobs out there making 100k a year in fields from computers to plumbing.
Yeah, because there’s absolutely no barriers to most people getting those jobs. People just don’t want more money 🙄
Describes every major festival since the 2000s
I mean give the price of tickets. I have went to like 3 concerts (paid for rock ones) in my lifetime and never to a festival that had admission.
They say you can always spot them by their teeth.
And their expensive dye jobs and tattoos. I saw a woman panhandling downtown the other day, wearing brand new Asics, with full sleeve tattoos and bright purple hair. Fuck that honestly, i wish I had tattoo money. Not only that, they see you pushing a stroller and beg for money. Every cent I have belongs to my kids, you entitled, fake poor pricks. The wealthy Western kids that Panhandle while traveling are by far the most deplorable though
Reminds me of portrayal of societies “kinda like Middle East” in American sci-fi shows.
You’ll never live like common people. You’ll never do whatever common people do.
That’s just called Burning Man
I don’t give my money to anyone, usually. Except specifically some nader chasers I’ve
followed for years. They’re out there losing windshields for my enjoyment. That’s it tho.This guy sucks.
FYI: Trustafarian is a word that has been used for at least 25 years. He thinks its new.
Anyways, I digress. Most trustafarians also suck, but this guy sucks for entirely different reasons.
I’m not familiar with him, why does he suck?
If you listen to the first 3 or 4 minutes of this edgelords rant and don’t get why he sucks… and don’t see any red flags … well, if you’d like to pay me for my time, message me and I can send you my venmo, and upon receipt of $10, I’ll explain it to you.
You took the time to write all this why not just stand by the opinion you clearly have?
Even if he is an edgelord, it’s still nothing compared to you.
The rich have always imitated the rest of us.
Tattoos used to see you barred from many military and civil service organizations. Now ink is considered cosmopolitan and they’re allowed.
Low-income service workers used to occupy the top floors of residential buildings, and even set up makeshift accomodation on building roofs. They called them penthouses.
Look at the shift in treatment of marijuana in the United States over the last decade.
can I have a source for that second claim? Wikipedia says penthouses were specifically designed to be upscale property as early as 1923
My understanding is prior to the invention of the elevator, the expensive floor was the ground floor.
Now thats what I call appropriating.
Papa Meat!!!
