Yes and the material is hand knotted carpet

Hey fuzzy how much have you earned from online gambling? How many figures?

[fuzzyroes]

hard to say... Cause in the earlier years it was quite a bit lost.

So the growing profits that might seem impressive to some, kind of balance out the learning curve from the money once lost.

My father was joking the other day saying: "this is some good money you've been making over this last year, why couldn't you have done this when you started?!" and I told him that I look at the learning curve as an equivalent to someone burning 25 000 in community college... The money wasted contributes to the experience of being able to profit from it.

is it normal to spend 25 k at community college cause the one I went to, the classes were like a few hundred bucks

[Trotskilicious]

2 years of my public university was 20k in 2005

i think you'd have to be at CC for a decade

yeah I was gonna say I did two years at a public school and paid 20k

[Trotskilicious]

actually no thats a lie even because the loan covered more than just tuition, it was books & food & rent too so it was a lot less than that

lol I know it's not important to me because Buddhism or monks, it's just a physical reminder of the experiences I had with my friend which came from something "real" and wasn't purchased for the sake of having a souvenir

well whatever it is that it may be.

I'm not even saying that I lost 25K gambling... Probably not even close... But at one point it may have been reaching the 10-15K point.

Not very far... A couple different provinces in Canada, California once, a couple Mariners games over the boarder.

That's why I'm so stoked about the prospects of traveling.

[Trotskilicious]

i hate you

[toase]

[Trotskilicious]

entertainment travel is a luxury of late stage capitalism & will not necessarily make you a better or more interesting person

[toase]

omg that video is so perfect I wish I could quote everything

"that thing should not be here"

"you shouldn't even be here"

"go back to party city where you belong"

[ohnoitsbonnie]

$143 physical and $185 online per credit at the cc I go to. Plus fees and materials. If you're implying that you spent 25k "learning" how to online gamble...

[reprise85]

i got a full pell grant and i actually got money back from my grant, above and beyond it paying for my tuition, for the two years i was at a CC. quite a bit back, actually. something like $4000 a year (i also had some small scholarships). So no, community college doesn't cost anyone $25k, I think credits at my CC were like $80 each. A class with all the fees (parking technology etc) was $317

at my 4 year my pell grant covers about 75% of my tuition, but i'm not able to work as much and do take some extra loans because of that. i also will have a 6 month break between undergrad and grad so I'm taking some extra to cover that time period in case I need it

[ohnoitsbonnie]

He isn't going to respond or be swayed. Everything he says is to justify his lifestyle.

[FoolofaTook]

With my act/sat and gpa scholarships/grants and my dads discount I basically paid NOTHING for college.

[FoolofaTook]

And smoked hella treez.

In brazil public college is mostly free (there are very tiny fees like $30 for enrollment), they are still government funded and the one in my state (UFRGS) is among the best universities in the country.

The only major downside is how competitive it is to get into them.
There is a specific test in which you have to be well ranked in order to get into college here.

Gonna see a couple Mariners games and one of the AAA minor league games.

Just joking fuzzy. But I wouldn't mind a baseball game. Only its too far for anything less than Sleep/Om.

Same thing in korea. Sounds sensible to me.

Yes, same here.
It only gets sticky now because they have a racial quota (which to me is a good thing) and the white people who fall beneath a certain threshold blame minorities for them not being well-ranked enough.

[Trotskilicious]

yeah they do that in america, mediocre white people are very entitled

[Trotskilicious]

this reminded me of fuzzy
