Agreed. I think if you have more than 2 homes you should pay a luxury tax of sorts on extras. It increases the more you own.

The Netflix doc also covers how Juul hired the wrong guy to do thier commercials.

He's the dude famous for making the iPod pastel silhouette commercials. Hip and sexy.

Juul started by wanting to help people quit. Then some influencer was vaping on stream and it blew the hell up in short order amongst younger crowds.

What really pisses me off is the synthetic THC Juul carts teens were smoking that fucked them up. They did that to themselves by trying to do drugs using a Juul. Juul and the legit vaping industry took all that backlash. The news and even CDC spouted bullshit in the name of sparing kids. No one clarified that they were smoking bootleg weed (illegal drugs) and Juul/legal vaping wasn't at fault.

So adults that were vaping to quit ciggs switched back to ciggs to never quit. I was a vaper during that time and I can't tell you how many people I set straight when they said "that'll kill you" while they're smoking ciggs.

How do you calculate rent of a condo in NY that's been vacant for 10 years simply because some C suite doesn't like hotel?

Or a house in a neighborhood that's some dudes 4th property he's just leaving there running an Airbnb

We need to tax empty units HARD. Then use those funds directly towards either rental assistance programs to get people into homes or new affordable housing units.

Either land barons will start renting those empty units out or paying the fees to fund housing projects.

The side effect is all those new units on the market might lower rent which lowers home values. So it won't happen.

Ditto. Coding for hours on end chugging coffee and pulling on a nic stick wasn't a healthy lifestyle.

Yeah but don't touch your shit until it bounces back. Touch it now and you're selling low when you bought high.

This is the right way to vape.
Should be used as a way to quit smoking.

People that vape as an alternative to smoking cigarettes end up chain vaping. It's just too convenient.

This is the only strategy.

If I was smart I'd have switched my index to a global or overseas one. Then back after Tusk crashes the market. Which they did.

I bought my steam deck for my first vacation out of state. 6 hour flight.

You better be damn sure I played games on the flight.

Played for 3-4 hours on each flight. Then set it up on my TVs at home. Docking stations on living room and bedroom TVs. Move it as needed.

I don't touch it often, but it's there when I want/need it.
Last played when I had the flu.

For anyone that doesn't know about Death Note it's a fictional notebook from a death god. If you write someone's name in it while picturing thier face they die. You can also manipulate thier actions and method of death to some extent.

Death note rules.
