Unlike most here, I find BabyTac fascinating. Not sure if he’s trolling or not, but the reactions are hilarious, and he has pretty sensible advice when you listen to it assuming you’re not financially insecure. Here’s 10 financial lessons if anyone wants to add to it—anything I missed?:

1) Buy pre pandemic Toyota because American cars are of suspect quality and will leave you stranded with depreciation
2)Hold onto receipts in case you need to exchange for store credit months later
3)Audit your girlfriend before proposing to check for income and any debt that you would have to inherit
4)Make coffee at home and skip eating out. If you must, avoid tipping.
5)Manage an active budget and invest as much of your paycheck as possible into a passive index fund, avoiding financial advisors
6)Don’t withdraw from social security until age 70 to ensure maximum payments
7)Avoid paying for day cares if possible, opting for your wife to find a part time work from home job instead
8)Avoid flying first class in favor of economy, never trading money that can be saved for convenience
9)Don’t buy a $100k bass boat for your fishing tournaments with meager reward money
10)Quit keeping up with the Joneses by buying expensive cars, jewelry, etc. to impress anyone because they are just as likely to be in dept. Instead, invest that money and convert it into frick you money decades later.

Did I get all of these right and are there any I missed?

11) Never buy groceries when you can garden and farm
12) Never buy a car and walk to work instead

My favorite babytac troll is where he insists there is a salesman in Tomball that is just waiting on him to give him a call for that new truck!

Maybe, which reminds me, forgot a big one: “Never pay for home insurance and only get liability car insurance”. Insurance companies are a rip off and you’ll save more long term.

I’ve had my suspicions for a while that VooDude was a BabyTac alter, but I think this finally seals it.

Not exactly, just find the whole dynamic entertaining: consistently sensible advice met with such hostility.

My alter Raj from Bengali Land was axed a long time ago.

Do not marry the wrong woman or all the shite you just said doesn't matter.

Chase a check, never Chase a bitch.

That’s a good one. Or as Baby Tac would say it: “Get it out of your system when thinking about women and redirect that energy into your career. Women with the right financial profile will eventually follow.”

I feel this might be better on the OT

I do have a 2016 Toyota Camry. In the last 3 months I needed brakes (that’s going to happen), where bearings, replaced a CV joint, replaced a belt and a belt tensioner.

Hopefully that’s it for a while.

If you borrow five cents from a kid in Illinois, you must walk five miles to pay it back before 11:59 that night to avoid ridicule or even death.


If over five miles, you can just pay him in homeroom tomorrow.

I’d be curious to see this if you have a screenshot or link. Couldn’t find it myself. Would join the mob afterwards.

It isn't what he says so much as how he delivers it. And his advice is great for low income earners, but insists he's a top earner. He also projects his opinion blanketly. For example, I have a nice newer truck and he insists I'm in financial prison and still pay on it.
