Hot or Not share your "paul markham-ing" strategies for 2017!

[pimpmaster9000]

"paul markhaming-ing" is the act of whining like a bitch about the economy going to shit whilst doing everything possible to avoid hiring your own people from your own country and looking to outsource and automate everything possible in the name of profit AND blaming others for it...

here are some of my "paul markham" ideas, feel free to share yours!

- I have automated everything in my mainstream business save for data entry and development...I blame refugees from somalia for this

- the data entry is done by africans for 1$/day....I blame refugees from syria for this!

-the development is done for a foreign company (mine) so that I do not have to pay contributions to the state for worker salaries...100% legit...I blame cuban illegals for this

-I have incorporated in belize to avoid tax and worker costs...I blame mexican illegals for this!

-my accountant drives an aston martin and hires ex state tax inspectors and also bribes people in the government left and right...sweet sweet setup for me...I blame albanian immigrants in china for this!

-I purchase hardware I need from hungarians who can hop the boarder and get the VAT refunded and avoid any tax due to crony loopholes...I blame british immigrants in spain for this especially nat and garrry!

do you have your own "paul markham-ing" strategies? please share and also be sure to state who you blame for this!

seriously, crusofatso, which country is paying your bills? Where did mommy and daddy take you before you failed in life and realized you will be better off back in 3rd world country bragging about your free money and green card? I had my bets on fine state of Illinois, The USA. Then I thought, no, probably Canada.. Majestic Serbian slumps - 5 blocks off Yonge St.
Come on, tell us more. Screw old Paul and his dementia.

it is endlessly amusing to me that you think I would even consider living in a western country...

how much is a skilled programmer in the USA? 10-20K/month?
a great looking prostitute is 1000$?
a nice appartment/house is in the $1Mil?

so basically you pay more for everything, and at the same time you have more crime and violence than a 3rd world shit hole...

tell me, why would I move to the west?

what possible reason could there be?

Everything sounds legit OP.

I never said "live or move" son.. I asked "who's donating you the money".. Who took your mommy and daddy in as refugee and got you the monthly allowance you live off now? Of course you wouldn't be able to live here. You are not a skilled programmer.. or a prostitute. Not a great one for sure.. Don't take me wrong. For a deadbeat you made a wise decision. Here you'd be siphoning gas and stealing hubcaps at 4 am but back in Serbia you are mother fucking king. You English is great, you have steady income from welfare department. Oh, the stories you probably tell your friends and $5 hoes you love so much.. Can't blame you, son!

a skilled programmer with a fat wife and useless kids that won't move west costs me around 1400$/month here...microsoft pays 1300$ starting salaries down here but they get health/social/pension insurance that aint worth a shit...let that sink in...for like 17K/year I can hire a good coder...can you get an illegal to mow your lawn for that money for a year?

how much do you pay your workers?

you need to work on your "paul markham-ing" game bro

That sounds absolutely terrible... I make more in a month than you do in a year.

I'll bite as an excuse to write shit I'm thinking about that no one need feel obligated to read

part of the stuff I've been doing for the past few months in my head involves the late future, should I be lucky enough to live long enough to get all decrepit.

doing so much thinking right now, always do that before a move so I know I'm finally ready after months of putting it off.

imagining a time to come, should I live that long, when I can no longer base my self worth on my latest on paper professional accomplishments

a time when rather have to find some actual inner sense of self to draw upon for the here and now. when all my great publicly noted 'glories' or whatever the fuck we call them are things I've already done.

my ego can't eat ghosts so it's kinda important personally that I figure this ish out.

having been surrounded by mostly old peeps for the past few months (my parents and aunts, all of whom are in their 70's) and comparing their lives at this stage to PM, the following is what I've learned:

1) you have nothing to learn from anyone younger and less experienced than you

2) you have nothing to learn from anyone different than you

3) your experience as one singular person at one singular point in time in one specific context/location is the extent of human experience. everything else is just irrelevant.

4) always put up a front (loudly) about being the best at everything, having the best advice about everything. not only does it help you win friends and influence people, people who are down to earth and real about it are really receptive to that approach. it also sets you apart from those peeps who absorb everything the world has to offer, who learn from others. they are suspiciously quiet those ones

5) never admit that you're wrong, that you made a mistake. nothing to learn there.

6) nurture an ego built on nothing but your own infallible, uncontested ideas

7) live in a world where curiosity is suppressed, where the aim is to find the easiest pat answer to tamper down a question

8) any time you feel out of control, that you might be experiencing something or someone new and aren't absolutely sure how to handle it or react, lash out with anger. protect yourself and turn away rather than explore, however tentatively, confident in your ability to handle what the unknown to you may bring. this is what brave men do.

this, young grasshopper, is the Markham path (the observable one at least, hope he's different when his isn't beaming for the audience)

Moving to Czech lowered some of my costs, rent on the studio, house prices, etc. Models we paid the same to make sure we were the first port of call and got a good reputation.

What Cruci is pointing out is what the majority of companies are doing, if it's possible.

The problem for him with what he claims is his business is. Serbian models are unable to compete with First World models when they open their mouths, which is why we concentrated on stills for magazines. Webcam is slowly moving to talking models. And he can't afford to pay them.

thats just plain old outsourcing everybody and their grandmother does that...cheap labor/services are always more attractive than expensive labor/services...capitalism 101...nobody in their right mind really wants to employ a western worker unless it is some ultra skilled shit and these jobs are few and far between...

"paul markhaming" is a step beyond, it is trying to shift the blame on immigrants/refugees for the tanking economy that this ultimately results in, instead of admitting the ultimate flaw in capitalism

the real problem is the low value and denomination of local currency in my country...most of the time when I visit the ATM I can not fold my wallet because the wad of cash is too thick...more than 50 bills makes my wallet look shabby and I have to carry a fanny pack

and I dont pay them LOL the westerners do and then I take a 30% cut for nothing at all...they all have their own cheap apartments to work from that they pay for out of their own pocket...my expense is literally 0...to say I can not afford 0 is wrong
