Not sure if this is really ‘known’ about me since i dont think ive mentioned it to too many people.. just a random, kinda interesting thing.. when i was a young guy i lived for a while in Southern California.. had some roommates but was looking for my own place, so i looked at a few apartments and narrowed my choices down to two.. one was a few minutes drive from the beach, no AC but didnt really need it b/c of the breeze from the ocean less than a mile away.. the other was more in the city, kind of a trendy, old neighborhood- probably today would be known as a hipster sort of place.. went to take a look at the city place one more time before i made my decision, and the landlord says to me - ‘I have to tell you, every once in a while you will get some lookie-loo’s here, and sometimes random people will knock on your door wanting to see the place’.. turns out the apartment used to belong to Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love…. They loved in it a the exact time that the Nirvana Nevermind album was released, then they soon bought a house in the hills.. apparently though, not before he wrote the song Heart Shaped Box in the bathtub of the apartment .. i wound up going with the place near the beach, but maybe if i had been a bigger Nirvana fan- i would have taken the other place and lived in Kurt Cobain’s old apartment .
*TLDR i was thisclose to living in Cobain’s old crib

There is no magical connection between what you paid and what you may get in the future
Im definitely no expert, and i certainly never put faith in anything ‘magical’- but it doesnt seem like a huge leap of logic to assume that what ive paid into SS over the last 30 years or so went towards SS checks for the elderly during that time.. and when im elderly, the workers paying into SS will help support me.. i realize there will probably be shortfalls , and i also get that you seem to be against anything that might be considered ‘welfare’ in any form (hopefully if youre consistent, that also includes corporate welfare/subsidies)- but just on general principle, is what I stated in re to my general expectation of who pays and who recieves, is that out of touch with reality, and if so then how ?

People have this "rent is throwing money away" mindset that's so simplistic.
It's as ingrained in the psyche of many on the same level as the "Social security is MY money" stuff.
I am with you on the first part, and i agree .. sometimes buying a house is a terrible move, you can lose money, be house poor or encounter myriad other issues .
But on your second statement- ive always presumed that SS is money that i and my employer paid into , out of every single paycheck i earn for decades on end- so that one day i can collect a consistent check that will help supplement my retirement when im too old to work - ie ‘my money’… what am i missing ?

No problem, my bad for misreading your post .. when you mentioned SE Asia then a few sentences later you said ‘when i came here’ i didnt realize you were in a different place.. all good, in my experience just about every place outside of N America has better options for dating /marrige than back home .

Thanks brother.. you are proof of exactly what i was trying to say.. if some nincompoop on the internet looked at you, found out you live in SE Asia and are married to a foreign woman- they would automatically label you a “passport bro”.. but you’ve been there since 1988 ! You have been there since literally decades before that term was coined, reinforcing the fact that - in most cases- labels are dumb .
As for me, i can appreciate that you found a good woman and “wifed her up”.. but I’ve already been married and divorced in the States, and though my experience wasn’t terrible, i know plenty of guys who have been railroaded and taken for everything they have, both in America and abroad .. far more, in my experience, than guys where it has worked out awesomely as it has in your case… so i cant ever see getting married again, though i can see possibly cohabitating if i meet a great woman .. and yeah, the selection and options in re to women outside of America are truly staggering .

Bro, i was born and raised in the Boot.. i am here to tell you that Kamala could have been the second coming of Ronald Reagan .. take her policies out of the mix for one second (im not defending them or condemning them, im just saying) she could have been Newt Gingrich 2.0 or whoever else yall have worshipped over the last 30 years (or is Newt a RINO now too, i cant keep up).. im telling you that none of the S La baws i know would have EVER, not in one million years, would any of them ever pulled the lever for a black chick named Kamala……. I cant think of a universe where most baws posting here would have ever done that .. alls im saying is be honest, it’s not her policies, it’s the other stuff that you find offensive.. it’s ok, just be honest about it .

I still think you are nuttier than a fruitcake though if you think that these ideas being floated arent absolutely retarded .
God how humiliating it must feel to have voted for this… imagine if i had said to you one year ago, that when you go into the booth and pull the lever for 47- the “big ideas” you are voting for - besides “omg owning the libs !!1!” .. of course, because what incel, no life loser doesnt exist to ‘own the Libs’- the big ideas you are voting for are 50 year mortgages and 15 year car loans… Holy shite, it’s takes a special kind of mental illness to think that this guy, who was the original Limousine Liberal up until 10 years ago- that he is now on your side and wants to improve your life… InB4 the Whataboutism of “What about Ka-MALL-ah ???!!!”

First off, I mainly replied to your original post because, well- you are the original poster in the thread.. second, you claim i dont know “your politics”, and maybe i dont .. but, and correct me if im wrong- but your sentiment in the OP seemed to suggest that a 50 yr mortgage might not be such a terrible idea.. i am here to tell you and all the other partisan hacks here , that if “Brandon” had proposed the EXACT SAME THING it would be “the worst proposal in the history of American politics” and everything else you can think of…… you know im right .. in places you dont like to talk about at church, or on the golf course- you know i am correct .
You partisan hacks are insane .. if Joseph R Biden has proposed a 50 yr mortgage, yall would be clutching yall’s pearls so hard and yall would have ur camouflage panties in such a bunch - the blowback would be immediate .

That seems like the smart play because once these passport bros bring their new lady to the states, it's all over.
Again, i cant speak for “passport bros” since i dont even know what that means .. people have been living overseas and taking advantage of geographic arbitrage for decades.. whereas the term “passport bro” is something ive only heard of in the last 5-10 years……. BUT you are 100% correct, the #1 rookie mistake/ rule for an American/Westerner living overseas and dating or marrying a local woman is never EVER bring her back to your home country to live.. just like i am considered “exotic” in a developing nation (i know, it’s wild) but im dime a dozen in the US- she will go from being dime a dozen in her home country to being ‘exotic’ in America and unless she is an extremely rare (non-existent?) non-hypergamous woman- she will ditch your aging, sorry arse for a younger , richer guy within a year, you can book it .. only bring her home for visits, if at all .. personally i think the USA is circling the drain, also ive been priced out of being an American- so i dont have any interest in even visiting home for a while .

Not a passport bro, but very glad to have married someone from another country. Someone here did call me a passport bro for some reason. I met her here in the states.
The problem is this stupid propensity for low iq losers to want to attach a label to everything that they dont understand .. im a guy who lives overseas for plenty of reasons, but one reason is the dating options here are 1000 times better for a middle aged, average guy like myself who isnt a Billionaire or a multi millionaire .. so i guess i am a “passport bro”, though id never be douchey enough to call myself that.. id also never call myself a “digital nomad”, but then again plenty of morons love using broad sweeping labels like that, so whatever .

I try to avoid it all all costs since the smell makes me want to hurl.. whenever im back in America i have to ask like three times for them to ‘hold the mayo’ and half the time they still frick it up.. especially in NOLA when im getting a poboy .

Growing up, i hated pizza.. i am ancient, so when i was a kid going out to Pizza Hut wasn’t exactly fine dining, but it was actually a respectable place to have a sit down meal.. however, i hated pizza so when i was 3 or 4 my go-to was always the spaghetti and meatballs.. i can still remember the red plastic ‘booster chairs’ i would sit in, and the late 70s/early 80s decor of the restaurants .. also one time we had an end of season pizza party for my little league baseball team when i was like 7, at this pizza place on Williams Blvd in Kenna, i think it was called Pizza Man He Delivers or maybe SuperPizza, something like that.. of course i was the only kid who didnt want pizza so again had to do spaghetti and meatballs, which i didnt much mind .
Now as a grown adult pizza is one of my all time favorite foods .
