  TL/DR - sabre-tooth tigers used to eat people so we shouldn't tax the wealthy or raise the minimum wage.
context: And in 1930 y'all had it better than those in 1390. But you still complained then, didn't you? It's not wrong to chime in when shit isn't right across the board. >
  
  It reminds me of how the writers in Silicon Valley got most of their hilariously out-of-touch lines from fictional CEOs by borrowing crazy out of touch shit actual CEOs say. >
  
  I’m reminded of the survey of Ivy League undergrads on legacy admission who were asked what the average wage earner in America brings home in a year and the low end of their estimations was $400,000. >
  
  Had a college roommate fit this category, who insisted me and our other fellow roommates all get matching embroidered pillows of our home cities since we came from all over. She had one from NYC that we all admired. We looked them up online and they were $250 each. I was working part time as a janitor and she didn’t see anything wrong with asking me to pay $250 for a decorative pillow to fit in. >
  
  Reminds me of my ex who expected both of us to make 300k through part time work (in a MCOL city too) >
  
  Sound’s reasonable after binge watching House Hunters. >
  
  "My husband is an inner city elementary school teacher and I'm an underwater basket weaver, our budget is $37m" >
  
  “I photograph potatoes and my wife is an amateur life coach. Our budget is $8 million” >
  
  “ I race snails and my wife writes poetry for squirrels. We’re looking for something in the 18-20m range”. >
  
  Says the man with a personal vanity project to make college students live in a windowless shoebox. >
  
  That's where I know that name from >
  
  damn look at this smarmy doughy face. it's been around since the early days of american political cartoons, totally unchanged lol >
  
  I’m never one to promote violence, and especially not against the elderly. But that dude has one seriously punchable face. Couple it with that quote and I’d even put some real weight behind it. >
  
  He turns 99 years old next week. I think you could just poke him with your finger and he'd have a 50/50 chance of surviving. >
  
  Don’t you also find it a little odd that he hasn’t gotten a little sympathy and empathy in those 99 years for those who have less financial means than him? Kind of a sad way to go out >
  
  It's the only way he knows, and our system awards massive honor and success to people who think like that, so that only serves to reinforce his terrible beliefs. >
  
  “It’s weird for somebody my age, because I was in the middle of the Great Depression when the hardship was unbelievable.”
  It’s hard to complete against “back in my day” >
  
  His dad was a lawyer and his grandfather a politician. Something tells me his upbringing was a little more stable than most people during those "hard times" >
  
  Born into a rich family and got into law school due to those connections, even though he didn't have a degree. From wikipedia:
  
  When he applied to his father's alma mater, Harvard Law School, the dean of admissions rejected him because Munger had not completed an undergraduate degree. However, the dean relented after a call from Roscoe Pound, the former dean of Harvard Law and a Munger family friend. >
  
  What the fuck lol. I can’t believe that was even an option. >
  
  Everything's an option if you're rich enough. >
  
  Nowadays we have the ABA so you can’t go to any accredited law school without an undergraduate degree. So, a few more extra bribes I guess. >
  
  BA in Governing from University of Eastern Prussia? Seems legit.
