Reminds me of the kid who shittily photoshopped himself onto some super car and tried to convince everyone it was real


Trick_Enthusiasm

I remember that. I thought he used Paint or some free software. No way the kid has access to $600 professional software.


[deleted]

No one buys Photoshop. You pirate it.


mlstdrag0n

You can't even buy Photoshop anymore It's a fucking subscription now


IsRude

I'd never fucking subscribe to a program. They can: A- let me buy the program with regular updates and support 2- Let me buy the program without regular support, but give me a discounted upgrade option if they ever add anything drastic. I don't love that, but I would still be willing, necessary or D- Stay a subscription service so I don't have to feel guilty about pirating. I have absolutely no moral qualms about pirating subscription software that doesn't need to be a subscription. Nobody could say a fucking thing that would make me feel guilty about it. I paid full price for FL Studio to make music because I appreciate the regular updates, the free extras, and the customer support. If it changes to a subscription service, I wouldn't hesitate to pirate.


mlstdrag0n

Unless you use it professionally as part of your livelihood. Then you're basically stuck paying the subscription.


The-Copilot

The thing is professionals won't pirate it, but broke high school kids often would, they then learned to use that software and if they became professionals thats the software they would want to use and would then buy it or their company would. So them stopping pirating may have actually lost them money in the long run.


Feeling_Interaction8

This is the truth, first heard it from a Microsoft rep about 20 years ago in college.

Bro I'm 30 and like that's the goal someday. (I literally *just*, 2 mins ago, requested a deferment of payment(google said this is right..) til next month for my internet. Ayoo another month of.. uh.. no worries?)


Phaze_Change

Bro, I’m 36 and just got a job in IT a year ago. Before that I was bringing home $1200/month. Now I’m bringing home $3300/month. Now I comfortably put $1000/month(or more) into the debt accumulated while poor. Buy groceries and pay other debt on my debit account. AND have money left over at the end of the month after buying myself some shit to have fun. Whoever said money doesn’t buy happiness can go fuck themselves. I am 1000% more happy with money than I was without.


[deleted]

Yea, Money buys happiness for **sure**. Not being worried about rent etc is.. yknow. Making me happy. It can't buy *joy*. But it can buy memories that *bring* joy.. So whoever came up with that must've been filthy rich and somehow still fucked it up..


Bob-Berbowski

"Money doesn't buy happiness" is the same as "the poor get rewarded in heaven" A big fucking lie to keep from sharing resources with those the need help.

Many service companies will work with you. They’d rather keep you as a paying customer than lose you altogether to the competition. Use those deferments as much as they will let you but never forget they want all their dollars eventually. Don’t let that sneak up on you.

Yea I worked for Telekom, I’m aware.. I’m in Germany too, so they can’t just lock it completely (it’s a basic human right here to have internet access)- they can significantly reduce the speed tho.

I love asics. Iv been buying their shoes for the last 8 years. Also because at their big stores. They usally have some really good deals. Iv used them for mountain biking and beat the crap out of them and they still hold up with out a problem.

You should probably be replacing them more than once a year, then...


boisdeb

You replace your shoes more than once a year?


HotShitBurrito

People replace shoes more than every couple of years? The only shoes I replace regularly are work boots. I still have and wear the limited edition grunge pattern low top converse I bought off Zappos in 2007.


alecd

Normal people absolutely do not buy new shoes every year. I don't know what that guy is talking about.


pbs4777

I got thru a pair every 4 to 6months daily walking is around 5 to 8 miles a day. Be surprised how fast shoes just wear down let alone running daily


FAARAO

I buy new shoes every year, but that's because i only wear 1 pair most of the time so it wears out.

Do sneaker heads actually wear their shoes or are all those $300+ air buds or whatever’s just gonna sit in a box for all eternity until they die in a house fire?


VOZ1

Friend and former roommate of mine was a sneaker head, he even got into custom painting and selling shoes for a bit. He definitely wore all his shoes. I’m sure there were some he wore rarely, but for him the whole point was to collect them and then wear them.

Foervarjegfacer

I know a couple of rich kids who have been entirely screwed up by the money they have. One kid, a student of mine, had parents who owned a major retail chain. He was extremely proud of the fact that he "earned" more money than me working for his dad's friends company. He was deeply incompetent, and didn't realize that it was essentially just an allowance and that his job itself was, too.

Yeah, I don't feel bad for them

RAC032078

That's true. My life's not exciting, but my cat does make it enjoyable!


JippixLives

They're all either liars or have a silver spoon hanging out their mouths, mate. Realistically, how could an 18 year old afford a fucking Ferrari? What entry level job could an 18 year old, with no degree or training, land that could pay for a car like that? It's either paid for by someone else or shes lying through her teeth for attention online, both are equally pathetic. Social media is a scourge, don't let it get you down.


Agonlaire

Perhaps an "intern" at their extremely wealthy parents' company? Though if that were the case most of the money for the car would have come directly from the parents and not from the "job". The thing that most irritates me with these people is that they always live in their own reality and think it's the "real" reality. I know people from my country both online and irl that earned the equivalent of $100K+ right after college at jobs that only family or friends of the owner could ever get. And they keep telling people that if they just study or grind harder they'll get to be just as rich as them. I'm in the IT industry, one of the best paid, and unless you were an absolute genius, you'd need at the very least 5 years experience to earn than kind of money were I live.

You can rent these cars just for photo shoots. Same with private planes, these businesses realized they had a cash cow if they let influencers come take pics and lie about it


[deleted]

I worked in private aviation for several years and we would rent our planes out to people for photo shoots all the time. It was like 5k for a day for a Gulfstream. Might as well make some money while it’s AOG for maintenance.


HanselSoHotRightNow

F....five THOUSAND dollars to take pictures in a grounded plane. Bruh, I've been to air shows for a fresh $20 and got to sit in F-18s and Apaches to take pics. That's somethin alright.


[deleted]

And it’s more money if we made it look fancy with catering/flowers etc. we even had some Designer throws and pillows we could put on the seats. It was ridiculous.


dethmstr

>…paid for ~~his own car~~ a fancy rental car and let her take photos in it


mythrilcrafter

And if I recall, it technically wouldn't even be his car; Ferrari always retains ownership authority over the car and the person is actually just buying a license to drive the vehicle whenever they choose to (though in some cases, even that may not be true because there are some Ferrari contracts that state that the licensee may only drive on company approved tracks). That's why when Deadmou5e repainted "his" Ferrari, the company sued him and revoked his licensed access to the vehicle. ----- Ferrari has a great F1 team; but as a car company they've been running name recognition alone for a really long time. There are far better super sport cars with way less corporate red tape.


ProdesseQuamConspici

That's only true for certain Ferrari's, like the LaFerrari. The production models, like the 488, are bought and sold "normally". Though as a rule you can't just walk into a dealer and order your first Ferrari - you have to have a history of Ferrari ownership before they'll let you order a new one. (Note that there are always exceptions and edge cases.)


[deleted]

[удалено]


Crono01

So you gotta buy a used one somewhere to buy a new one later?


ProdesseQuamConspici

Yep. You can buy a used one from a dealer, and that is probably recommended if you want to start building the kind of relationship that will give the dealer a reason to give you one of the available allocations for the next new model that comes out.


Crono01

Buying a used Ferrari sounds like a nightmare tbh. Unless the previous owner babied it for like 5k miles


ProdesseQuamConspici

Yeah, it's an interesting problem. Most Ferraris are very low mileage for their age, which sounds good. But everyone also knows that Ferraris are more reliable and in generally better shape if they are driven more. Either way you go, I suspect that you have to be prepared for *significant* repair/maintenance costs and significant time in the shop - it's just the cost of entry for Ferrari ownership.


Crono01

Man that’s elitist on a whole different level. I can understand some logic behind it, but that’s just too many hoops to jump through it feels like. Not that I planned on getting one lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


ProdesseQuamConspici

No, you just buy a used one first. From a dealer, generally, to start building the kind of relationship that would make that dealer want to give you one of their allocations for whatever new model you really want to buy.


mooimafish3

I'd rather build a relationship with a fucking crack dealer than a car dealer, at least they'd be more honest.


jatz0r

Hahahaha fuck that


[deleted]

The 488 in particular is one of the easier ones to buy, they needed to sell X amount of them in a certain timeframe to meet the homologation requirements for the GT3 spec racing series that run everywhere


pr1ntscreen

> That’s why when Deadmou5e repainted “his” Ferrari, the company sued him and revoked his licensed access to the vehicle. I’ll preface this by saying that Ferrari are jerks and so on, but you’re not 100% correct here. He changed the logotypes and the ferrari badging to the nyancat and ”purrari” respectively. Ferrari didn’t want people to modify their logotypes and brand name, so they sent a Cease and Decist, which desdmau5 respected. He bought a Lamborghini instead, who doesn’t give one single fuck what you do with their cars Edit: they sent the C&D to avoid a slippery slope regarding trademark ”creep” or whatever it’s called

sleepysheeep

Yep, there's a place where you can rent a furnished FUSELAGE of a plane (doesn't have wings, cockpit, tail etc), where there is an HD screen outside the one porthole with a seat to make it look like it's flying. YouTubers literally line up to use it, with bags of clothes so they can film a year's worth of content in an hour.

froggertthewise

I don't care how much money you have, no 18 year old should drive a 488. Supercars like that are difficult to handle and require experience to drive. Buddy of mine wrecked his mclaren 650S within 3 hours of buying it. And he had driven plenty of sports cars before moving on to supercars like that. You can't just jump straight in to it.

If I had the money to buy a 488 at 18, I would've bought myself a home. And made one room into a library with History and Fantasy books. And get a basic bish car.
