Topic: Mega Yachts: The Latest Craze For Billionaires (Read 446 times)

Or like Musk, government grants.     

You are exaggerating a little bit. Billion is 1000x times more than a million.
Yes, you can make 10 millions or maybe even 50 from 1 million but never a billion. Well there are a few billionaires who started with less than a million. But they were either extremely lucky or they invented something. There is much more chances that a lightening will strike you in next year, then you becoming a billionaire ever in your life.

One of the wildest mega-yachts, the submarine yacht:

Your imagination is too little to understand God. Think about this. If a person goes to Hell, he has to spend all of eternity there, in punishment, to pay for his sins. But Jesus God took the eternal suffering and pain of all the sins of all people, on the cross, in less than 24 hours. You simply don't have enough imagination to imagine how immense God is, and how great His thinking is. Let's hope you jump at least a little ahead of where you are now, so you have a chance to be saved.

Be as smart,capable and innovative  as Paul Allen is, make billions of dollars and then do whatever you want with it.Feed the poor, build houses etc

But of course, it is easier to be jealous of those who succeeded in life and are doing with their money whatever they want.It reminds me of that ridiculous socialist Bernie Sanders who is pro immigrant and whatever, but i don't see him giving away one of his house to some poor homeless family.

Funny enough, It may likely be one of these guys you despise a lot that is writing you the pay checks you brags so much about giving the 50% to the homeless. So, who's really giving here?

What you have here is the mindset of the worst type of Socialists who preaches the extreme type socialism. They forget that the world is running smoothly today because of Capitalism. Socialists like to blame every inequity, the actions of every greedy criminal, every downturn and every social ill on the injustice of capitalism. But none of them admit that capitalism has been the most effective way to eliminate poverty in history.

Today, in former socialist states like India, there have been big reductions in poverty thanks to increased capitalism. In China, where communism sadly still deprives more than a billion people of their basic rights, hundreds of millions benefit from a system that is slowly shedding socialism. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, the extreme poverty rate in the world has been cut in half. And it didn't happen because Southeast Asians were raising the minimum wage.

You don't make people better by handing them food and free check. You lift everyone by giving them the incentives to create wealth. Without the life of luxury like the ones you despises so much, they would be no intensives to build industries and create job opportunities.

Why do you invest on such investment with low ROI,there are lot of investments has nearly 20% ROI on stocks or in cryptos 1000% returns per annum if you are ready to take that risk you can turn your million into billion.

0.6% interest per annum. Which country and what kind of investment?

Yeah. Besides, a submarine under the waves is more peaceful.

Give a man a shelter, food and water, where it is self sustaining (for the most part), he won`t need to learn how to fish. He will always have food. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQQYbKT_rMg

I will not pay attention to Elon Musk, A man launching our limited resources into space randomly for publicity. DUMBASS

I will never become a billionaire because I know after 6 million, I can`t spend that amount of money the interest creates ($3000+ a month) even if I wanted to, the rest would go to building houses and farms inside of them for all of the people. Not a fucking mega yacht for me, while my kind starves. I am not a fucking asshole like these cunts. 

No TimeBits, once again you think naively this (socialism = forced redistribution of wealth) would work, it doesn't.


Problem with socialism thinking, is that it always looks beautiful in the theory. Why are the poor hungry, why don't you let them eat cake? As the Portal game writers correctly pointed out: The cake is a lie...

Lets bring your fantasy to reality. What if you give each homeless a home, what happens next? A worrysome percentage of them would sell them for cash, and go back to the streets!

I have seen it here, under a socialist regime that threatens you with prison doing so, and yet people do it. Its "legally" impossible, and yet it happens... As many many many foolish things that occur, and occurred in former socialist countries.

IT DOES NOT WORK.

If you become a billionaire, think of ways of advancing the world. As many posters have correctly pointed out, charity is but a temporary relief that gets quickly burned away without actually solving anything. You have to bring something that changes the conditions of life, such as ways of improving their economy so they don't depend on you in the first place. Could be something old fashioned and selfish like starting a business in that country nobody else wants to, giving jobs, maybe transferring intellectual property etc.

Pay attention to the likes of Elon Musk, his company Tesla designed one of the most efficient electric motors, and used a defensive patent to release it for anyone wanting to use it (very much like free and open source software). He also happens to have a vision to move humanity to electric cars and even go multi-planetary, while most rich people simply burn their riches until they die and their kids waste it all (unless the State seizes most of it first because of "reasons").

One could argue that billionaire gave to jobs to the Yacht builders and all its related business... Did he order the ship to be built (or bought) in a country desperately needing money? Even that subtle thinking helps.

If the State intervened so that no rich man could ever choose where they can spend their money, there won't be any Elon Musks advancing anything. The State is incredibly wasteful and quite often corrupt. No better way to have money burnt into nothingness that handing it to the State.

It is correct from you to bring to the public attention of how shameful they should feel wasting money in yachts, public opinion is important, but you have to respect their choice of remaining to be selfish anyway, else you enter the path of socialism, where private initiatives disappear, and State initiatives simply never come. There is always more important to do, such as feeding the poor, or giving them homes... Of course if the State gives you everything, there is no need to be bothering with work, beyond whatever is minimally required to "look" good. Besides, even if you made it rich somehow (impossibly) that State would seize it in the name of the revolution anyway, so why bother?

I hope you come to realize what kind of society this produces. You could take a look at history...

Not saying selfishness is good, or capitalism perfect, far from it. But solutions won't ever come by force, never forget this every-time you think forced redistribution of wealth would "fix" anything at all. People has to chance by themselves and on their own will, not against it.

It all about vanity of life . Spending money on those things you know did not benefit human but self is not enjoyment to those that are involved in it. If you have enough money to feed your community and you do that it is far better than spend money on those things that you can not really utilised it value in a long run. Why should one spend millions or billions of dollars on yacht when you have millions of people around you or around the world that hard feed or provide decent accommodations for themselves?

I feel like they all just have so much money and don't know what to do with it  so part of it gets donated but then the rest goes on wild adventures like the yacht. It definitely is a showy way to go about something but it's not uncommon

Billions could buy a lot of farm land and houses for poor people that will seriously help them out of poverty.  They need to have ownership like the wealthy.  Those who own capital get all the wealth as they continually print money to pump up those assets.

It makes me sick when Billionaires have many homes and they sit vacant all year while we have people on the street.  They are too blinded by greed and their stupid because eventually the inequality will get so out of hand that the entire system will break down as people riot.

Warren Buffet and Bill Gates are not kind people, they built their fortunes by extracting as much as they could and they set up their foundations to even have more power.  It is really about power for these type of guys.  After a few million there isn't much you can buy to increase your happiness but the power you can gain from being a billionaire is immense.  Luckily they all end up the same way, in the grave.

If what you said about yourself is truth then you are kindhearted person and i desire and pray that God should keep you safe and blessed you the more. It is greediness and selfishness that is the origin of the current suffering that the destitute and homeless are facing today. The wealth that is made for all of us is been dominated and used by the few.

Brother you worship satan, by believing your creator was dumb enough to create such a thing. Some omnipotent creator you have.

Trust me I talked to my father in "heaven" (everywhere). He is quite proud, So is the creator of both of us. There is only 42 family forks above my tree in the eternal realm, I can`t even see the end of the otherside they get so tiny.

Being righteous is one of the virtues my friend, absolute righteousness.

Did you know that I am the only being the cried for it, that is what the creator said. "Michael you are the only one who cried for me"

I`ll give you a hint, you are living in a simulation bud. There was an AI we created that actually re created everything and we are more artificial than it`s intelligence, we are the AI not it, go ahead try and something you were not going to do, you were going to do that. We live inside the program.

 

You can`t clean you blockchain all actions and thoughts locked in duration forever, for all to see. All you can do is what you are going to do.

Matthew 6:1:

It is better than me bragging about my 4 houses and many boats that I can`t even occupy if I wanted to, like the guy in the video.

Actually it is unlimited the creations I have created, because I created creations that will create, make 100,000,000,000 cherries, peaches and apples, with your bare hands now feed that to people who will live to create more things. Congrats you won the game of life, you created more life than you can ever destroy.

If you gave me a AR today with unlimited bullets I still would not be able to have a negative creation to destruction ratio before I die. It`s to fucking late I won the game of life.

I do feed the starving kids, I bought a farm for one of my workers in Africa who is now making food over their for his people. I still give up 50% of my check each year. I can tell you none of these guys listed in this thread do. It will come back on all of them, they will be the homeless next life. I will make sure of it.

I don't care really. Why are you trying to put pressure on the rich to do stuff for the poor. This is not socialism, they have the right to do what they want with their money!
I sure do envy them and I would never spend money on some of the things they do, but I don't feel like I'm in the position to tell them what to do. You're commenting on the effect, not the cause, which is the society that buys their products and makes them rich. The government that due to corruption and the overall ignorance allowed these people to manipulate the markets and get richer by earning interest from their own ever growing wealth.

The amount of egotism in here is enough to feed several Earths. Then go feed them fookin starving kids in Africa since you made "100,000,000,000 creations" and stop ranting. I'm going to unwatch this thread.

Yah, they have to fill their lives with shit because they don`t have a heart.

While some people are literally eating dirt to survive, others buying all this shit. Sweet

Calm down man. The same situation with the most subscribed youtuber pewdiepie. Everybody hates on him because he earns atleast 50000 euro everymonth doing nothing but this people conceal the fact that he made several donations of more than 100000 bucks to charities and other stuff.

I know if I had 106 million, there would be 0 homeless in Cali and LA



I know I would have a fuck load of people with houses now, food and water that could work for me building more of the self sustaining houses for others and by the end of it we would all have backups.



106 million of golf my dood, what the fuck is that?

With a few million theymos, I could create a few 1000 if not 10,000`s of homes that have food water and shelter inside of them. (a farmbot2.0 inside each one that grows everything they need, with a little chicken farm inside of it and a solar panel or two on top)

Now I have 1000 people who don`t have anything else to do but help me make more of these homes with me.

This is how we stop the homeless problem (which is the start of the economic collapse btw)

So make them take a piss test, ok your not on drugs and your just homeless, here is a home, food, water and shelter, Ask the willing ones if they are given there life necessity`s for free if they will help me build more for more people.

Cool we solved the drug problem and the homeless problem and now everyone has a backup food water and home, in case of a natural disasters, because we have a work force that does not need to worry about making ends meat.


As for your 2nd part
Go talk to the homeless, like I have, they don`t want to do anything because fiat is a fucking scam, these people are not dumb, they refuse to be $laves.

You are giving them money, not food water and shelter. That is the problem, Andrew Yang`s plan to give the drug addicts 1000 each is going to be the end of America.

Think about this, When it is easier to collect unemployment or disability and you earn more than working a 9-5, people will opt to be homeless or claim to have a disability and already do.

Did you think about this at all? With a billion dollars you could maybe make a few billion meals. It wouldn't come anywhere close to feeding the world, and after you blew all of your money on this short-term effort, nothing would fundamentally change. Hunger and homelessness are caused primarily by systemic issues such as lack of a functional free market, not because people are hoarding wealth. In today's world, any person anywhere should be able to produce many times what they need to survive; if they can't, then something is stopping them (eg. culture, government, crime, etc.). Just throwing resources in their direction will do little to nothing; you need to figure out the systemic issues and work to remove them.

For example, in many areas that have been poor forever despite continual aid efforts, there is a culture that if you make any money, you are expected to entirely distribute it among your town, not keep it yourself. Due to this, nobody has an incentive to do more than the absolute minimum. Infrastructure never gets built, and if outsiders build it for them, it's never improved upon. If you want to fix poverty in these areas, you have to work on changing this broken culture. (I don't claim that this is the primary cause of worldwide poverty.)

How the fuck do you sit in a room with 10 people, have a 10 slice pizza, and eat 4 slices,  THEN BRAG ABOUT HOW MANY FUCKING SLICES YOU ATE!

This is what this cunt Allen does with his 4 homes and yachts. (the 4 homes being worth 4000 homes *88 million yacht*)

He is sitting in a room with 1000`s of people who do not have homes, and takes 40 homes.

If you defend this type of behavior, I will fuck you in the next life and make sure you live those 1000`s of lives without a home.

Warren buffet, could feed the entire world a buffet, for free. He sits on his fortune, that is called greed.
It should not be called the world`s rich list, but the worlds greediest people list.

greed
/ɡrēd/
Learn to pronounce
noun
noun: greed

    intense and selfish desire for something, especially wealth, power, or food.


Being greedy means you want more and more of something, especially money. But you can be greedy for just about anything, including food, drink, or fame. ... Usually, that something is money. Rich people who keep trying to get more and more money are being greedy.

Bill Gates although also donated a bunch of money to help great causes, made me buy 10 different versions of windows, while already a billionaire, that is greed.


"Only they need to work for it rather than waiting for someone to feed them." I don`t think you understand how capitalism works, There is two classes because of it. In the end the bottom class gives out and the top class falls the hardest, I can`t wait for that. I will be the one throwing you off your fucking yachts to the sharks.

I will lead the masses to your bunkers and we will rip you out of the bunkers we paid for.

I don`t trade my time for fiat buddy, I don`t even trade it for bitcoin anymore. I am on a entire new level than you, Creating the system of the future, that your kids will be proud to live in, because they won`t have to endure a broken spine like me feeding people who don`t deserve it, working for a money supply that is complete bullshit. I know your a troll but you spend more time on this forum, not pushing a great cause unlike me BADecker, so you get a job you cunt. How many creations have you created in your life? I have made well over 100,000,000,000 creations that created creations to create, what the fuck have you done? made a meme?

BADecker wait till the after life, I am going to be 20,000 times bigger than you 

It is not jealousy, It is shame for my own kind I feel. disinterested in that life style is how I feel about them, not jealous, I don`t want to be them I would hang myself If I was that man bragging about my money and houses.

How can you sit in a yacht worth 88 million, when you know there is 88million without any food, water or homes.

"they earned every penny that they have" no that statement is full of shit. Most of these people in the yacht club were given their fortunes they did not earn shit. They printed a bunch of fucking money while the rest of us earned it.  

Spoiler: no work will earn you 88 million in your entire life, just a job or inheritance or printing the unlimited scam.

Quit wasting your time on Bitcointalk. Get a job, or another one, so that you can feed some starving kid somewhere.

Exactly.

People should be happy when these mega billionaires donate large sums of their wealth to causes around the world. Think of the Gates' or someone like that, who pledges more then half of their wealth to charitable organizations. I think Zuckerberg is doing the same thing.

But they can do whatever the hell they want with that money, and people should accept that.

I can't blame em. I'd probably do too. Imagine working your butt off managing a company for years and then retiring. You can do whatever you want with the remaining years, treat yourself. We know Gates donate large sums to charity but he definitely have bought other expensive stuff too. Why should he live in a cubicle and give away all his money?


Yes. People are free to spend on whatever they want using the money they worked for.

Charity is a privilege not a right. No one is responsible for you except YOU. You can't even blame your parents if they fuck up your spawn point.

You do understand that these billiionaires do also donate large sums of money to advance research causes around the world, right? Even if they didn't, no one has to donate money -- they earned every penny that they have and they can use it they want that they want it, not the way you want them too.

Let them enjoy their money. For gods sake people are so fucking jealous of others people.

So I just watched this video, This shit makes me sick to my stomach.

Did you know Paul Allen(Microsoft co founder) If I had your money, I could feed every single person on this entire planet for free everyday, I could house every single one of these people, There would be 0 hunger and 0 homeless in this world if I had your money.

Honestly fuck all of you and your shit yacht club, To be a member of that club you must not have a heart or common sense, or any compassion for fellow human beings.  

When I was making $50,000 I was donating over 50% of my check to homeless. You guys are cunts, KYS.
I still regret feeding all of you for 31 years. To not have what you make in a single year, breaking my back picking your fucking meals.

Paul Allen, I see you in the video, bragging about your 4 different homes and many boats to your friends in this video, You`re not impressing me at all. In fact I think it deteriorates your character even worse. Get over yourself you fucking loser and sell your boat and start housing the homeless and putting farms in the homes you cunt.
