It's giving $10 banana vibes
This is the new avocado toast slur that boomers are gonna use to describe the younger generations lack of not being able to afford anything.
If I've read all the past posts from people in the USA correctly, it's not lunch that's expensive but the healthcare to stay alive.
rotisserie chicken!
At this point, many people should just game the system to get a decent living.
2 bedroom apartments cost what a mortgage can cost for a 4 bedroom new house in some places. Got a very trustworthy friend with good credit? Pay them for "housekeeping" while the only thing they're cleaning out is the beer in the fridge while playing vidyagames. Let them show extra income and get a house. Be roommates. Have other roommates join in. Everyone hoard money while having cheap living in a nice new place.
Is that fraud? Idk but I'm in a nice new house and hoarding money.
Yeah most people agree $28 for lunch is insanely expensive.
But it doesn't stop quotes like this from being passed around as ragebait.
i want to jam his face into a waffle iron
That's a business plan I can get behind
30 dollars for a lunch?
I dont even spend 30 dollars, total, for a week of lunches and dinners. I aint one of them youthes, though.
When you can't afford a vacation you may as well splurge on lunch now and then.
What we need to understand about O'Leary is that:
a) He likely has an incredibly tiny penis.
and b) He is absolutely desperate to be seen in the same circle as the likes of Musk, Zuck, Gates, Bezos, etc...
The reality is that his wealth pales incomparison to those guys, at roughly 150 million. To them, he's as much a pauper as you and i are. He's a nobody. And that fucking grinds at him that he's not a part of the cool kids club. It gnaws at his insides that, in reality, the people above him AND the people below him would literally not give a shit if he fucked off back to Canada and died in obscurity.
For all of their evil, the group that O'Leary desperately wants to be seen as equal to will at least leave some sort of Legacy. They'll at least be remembered in the history books, even if just a footnote about their shitty shenanigans.
O'Leary will be forgotten as soon as he's in the ground. Probably sooner.
That's why he's suddenly forcing himself into every fucking news program, and awards shows, and trying to strike deals for massive data centers that no one wants. Because he's a sad and pathetic old man afraid of being forgotten.
also, did I mention he has an incredibly tiny penis?
His penis has nothing to do with it. Stop obsessing over peoples genitals.
But if we don't obess over penises then how will people know how masculine we are compared to the people we don't like!!!!1!1!1!1!!1!!1one!1!
Lighten up.
The response is spot on!!! Kevin, the racist pedo loser, should be eating shit.
I've seen this argument from people before, with avocado toast and Starbucks and everything else, but no one seems to ask why lunch is $28 or blame the people charging $28 for lunch as part of the problem

Wait is $70,000 a year a low amount of money? That's an insane amount of money to be considered poor.
70k is basically living in the streets in a chunk of America while a few places it's living like a king.
But those places are quickly going away.
The average income is around $84,000, so if you are making less, your employer is fucking you over. The difference between your income and $84,000, is what your employer stole from you and called "Profit."
Oh no! Another asshole billionaire who is out of touch with reality. Whatever will we do?
Kevin O'Leary is a con artist, that's not like just my opinion
Its $28 because you rich assholes ruin everything
I'd kill to make 70k a year LMFAO
If you're a hit man, you should be making more than that. Unless you're trying to be a working class hitman, righting wrongs for the little guy, like Luigi.
Mush brains with a watch on each wrist doesn't understand how inflation works... Shocker.
Remember those guys that had to have a Bluetooth ear piece in each ear so they could have multiple conversations going at once, to demonstrate how important they were, or had business cards with a photo that showed the guy talking on the phone because he's just too damn busy to put down the phone for 5 seconds and look at the camera for the photo that's going on his BUSINESS card, also why are you putting a photograph on your business card, that's just stupid.
I went to Subway last night. You know, the 5-dollar footlong place.
A footlong sub was $12 (not the meal - just the sandwich).
McDonalds is charging 8 dollars for a breakfast muffin.
My rent has gone from 800 to 2000 since Covid.
I have to fill my tank 3 times a weeks, and right now that costs 50 bucks.
On top of that, I have to help my parents out because their pension didn't account for real-world inflation and their extremely comfy retirement turned out not to be nearly enough when the grocery bill doubled.
That 73k I make does less than the 30k I made back in 2016.
now imagine you still make 30k and also most of your friends cant get jobs to begin with and still with parents in their mid 20s and also half of them are having mental breakdowns and thats the gen z experience
I get it. I am barely past living paycheck-to-paycheck having changed nothing about my lifestyle since I made half as much (using the same same rental, car, laptop, and everything), so making 30k today would be worse than making minimum wage was just a few years ago, when it was already shamefully low.
I do have a new job that pays way more, but my commute is absolute dogshit because the place I work is SUPER expensive. I work for a city where literally 100% of the households are multi-millionaires, and we have a few 11 and 12-figure residents.
yeah, that sounds really shitty, hope things get better for you - and all of us - soon. solidarity <3
I get drive through or take out for lunch every day, but it's not to waste money. It's so I have an airtight reason/excuse to get the FUCK out of this place for a period of time every day.
It's the one thing keeping me from being on the front page of the local paper.
