I recently went on a trip to wine country with a couple other couples. At one point in the car ride, the two wives started talking about how uncomfortable they were with letting their children go to homes with guns.... a little shocked but the stupidity of it, I kept my mouth shut in order to avoid questions.
Thinking back now, however, I think I missed an opportunity to challenge them with anecdotes of gun safety being taught in school just decades ago... that’s lack of education makes guns much more dangerous than guns themselves. Still, though, drama on a couples’ weekend away.... oh well ....

In general, you should keep as much of your wealth and status as possible hidden from people. There's a bit of truth to those oft-cited aphorisms of Warren Buffett living in the same mobile home he's lived in since 1959 or Bill Gates wearing the same $30 polos. The last thing you want when you're looking for a genuine friend is a bastard who will stab you in the back; the last thing you want when looking for a wife is a gold digger like pic related.
He took it way too far. He's got a problem spending money at all, obviously, even just for himself on his own time. I wouldn't marry a woman who was a paranoid skinflint. So I can't blame a girl who just wants to be solvent enough as a couple to own a home and have children not wanting to continue with an asshole like that. She did the right thing dumping him. It's actually a pity that there aren't more women out there who use their brains as well as their vaginas to make serious decisions about their lives. I dunno if this is just Reddit made-up bullshit or not and I don't care, but if she is real, I hope she finds a good guy and has a happy family with him like all decent white women ought to be doing.

Lol, not quite a mobile home, did you just assume that because it's in Nebraska?

Turns out the streloc/k/ I used to hang out who always had a new piece with was trying to threaten me. I just thought he didn't want me fucking his wife.
