Why do people who make a whopping $50k a year walk around like they are king shit of fuck mountain?
Seriously, put the top hat and monocle away Rockefeller and get your head back down to earth. 50k-60k is certainly a decent above the national average living but walking around like you’re a high roller is embarrassing to watch and your friends are starting to notice how you are acting.
Stop carrying your fucking money in a big roll like you you just stepped off the set of Goodfellas, be an adult and get a wallet, money clip or use a damn debit card/credit card like normal well adjusted adults. No one is impressed that you wrapped a $50 around a bunch of 5’s. and folded it into your front pocket.
You are a middle manager at a failing company not the fucking guy from Dos Equis beer ads! People have quit in the last year because they felt there was no direction ( ie leadership…looking at you here ) there. Hunker down and get into your own shit in a big way before the CEO fires your ass.
PS – stop hitting on the 20 something temps we get in the summer. You haven’t been to a gym in 15 years and smell like a vintage jean jacket on a good day.

Bahaha burn
Ha Ha….this is a funny bitch! I love it!
Burn after burn after burn! Awesome bitch.
Smells like a vintage jean jacket on a good day – lol.
I so know what they mean by that. Have you ever smelled a really old jean jacket, its pretty gross.
Ah…nothing worse than a smelly aging middle-manager that doesn’t make enough money!
yeah, some of these honies love that smell, it is called benifits as in friend with. the younger they are , the more they will coo over you. as in college professors with all kinds of young thangs. makes you sick looking at some of these bimbos.
pfft, a 20-something is not interested in a flabby, weird, sheltered old dude in his late 40s, 50s and up.. not by a longshot! what would they have in common?
The Dos Equis guy is really Fidel Castro (notice the resemblance). LOL.
ngf, usually it’s the dollar signs in their eyes that get them.
LIFE SUCKS – i disagree. I think woman are more attracted to a guy with power ( social status ) than money. Women like power and guys who can take care of business, figuratively speaking.
Its just that the guys with power usually have a fat bankroll to go with all that power and vice versa so people think its the cash that lures them in.
all other things being equal – I bet if you took a guy with all the power and no money he would do better with the ladies than a guy with tons of cash but no power or status.
I just want a guy who will go surfing with me 🙁
Anyway, where my hometown is the average person makes around 80k a year and nobody walks around doing this shit. IDK. My single mom who’s an RN makes around 50k too and she’s struggling to even pay the bills. This guy’s a egotistical freak.
the average in come in your town is 80K??
Is that per person or per household? where the fuck are you from the upper east side of Manhattan?
Lovinglife – I mean per person. I hail from Lexington, Massachusetts. AKA: ”Blow my nose and dollars come out while people are starving in Africa” – kind of town. Makes me sick.
I.E: Avg. income per family – $142,796.
sounds swanky!
also, I didn’t know you were an American. That explains a lot 😉
I’m attracted to money. I’m moving Lexington. Dino, know any hot singles making 80K? I’ll take an uggo for 100K too.
In my neighbourhood if you pull out a big roll of cash, you are generally a drug dealer. Everyone else uses their debit card. Carrying cash invites robbery, unless you have the gun or bear mace to back up your need to announce how much money you have. I guess your boss has something in common with a drug dealer.
“stop hitting on the 20 something temps we get in the summer. You haven’t been to a gym in 15 years and smell like a vintage jean jacket on a good day.”
GOLDEN
Truly excellent bitch. Note to self: move to Lexington.
That was the funniest bitch I’ve ever read here!
oh hush up, Jane, you be hittin’ on the 20-something temps too 😛
and dino, got a pic of your mom? 😀
My mom looks like me. Check my FB.
Lexington aesthetically is GORGEOUS but the people are otherwise complete assholes.
I’m coming to visit your mom. You can take me surfing.
NGF! Gasp! Oh, fun fact: guy who invented the internet is my neighbor.
And what does $142,000 in Lexington equal to here? Taking in account of the price of housing and medical insurance, etc, I’m thinking not all that much comparitively.
Yeah. The avg home price is $800,000 and healthcare is subsidized by the gov. in MA. So if you’re rich the insurance rates are sky high.
I’ll bring donairs. From their homeland in Halifax, NS!
Dino, Al Gore is your neighbour? You poor, poor girl.
Quick, Dino – run to their fence and play “Celebration” by Kool & the Gang and yell, “I BOUGHT YOUR BOOK!”
WTF are you talking about man?
Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet… back in the days when he was going to run for President…
Actually, the internet was FIRST invented by the US military to be a way of communicating important information in a “coded” fashion, so that the “enemy” couldn’t retrieve said information…
It spread to universities (I first got on the internet at Queens University in Kingston, ON) for research purposes… I believe it became available to the public (by dial-up modems) in 1992..
When I was posted to Halifax in 1994, there were a few IP’s available (internet providers). Most of them don’t exist anymore…
I make $50K but once taxes, EI, benefits and Pension are taken off it’s closer to $32K… That’s not living high on the hog let me tell you!
make sure you choose the correct Lexington, there’s one in Kentucky where the dollar store is the equivalent of Mills Brothers and $50K would buy you the whole town, complete with all the wife beater shirts you could ever want and as many 3 toothed hilbilles as can be jammed onto/into a truck – yyyeeeehhhhaaah
“”Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet… back in the days when he was going to run for President…”‘
He did? That’s really what he said? He “invented” it, all by himself? …’cause I don’t think that’s what he said…although he WAS integral to it’s growth, and as a leading politician he certainly took the initiative during it’s creation to promote it…
You have a source besides Faux News/RNC for that, right?
Or maybe your conservative “army” buddies told you this whopper?
tin. foil. frost.
I have to say if I were making 50K a year I’d consider myself a high roller. I’m lucky if I make half that. I think playing the Game of Life ruined a generation as well, when making 20K or 30K was the total bottom of the barrel, and you were sucking unless you got the 80K or 90K card!
