:thumbsup:thumbsup

dude its a CNN documentary...go to CNN and explain your genius to them :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

and you are so right about serbian schools and college...you have to be a dumb shit american to be able to pass on knowledge and if the school does not have I-macs and I-phones then they obviously can not pass on knowledge, america obviously has a monopoly on this :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

americans and their i-education and i-healthcare and i-army and i-democracy LOL always good for a laugh :thumbsup

Yes, thats why when I look up foreign execs resumes all I see is Serbian and Russian school names there not USC, Stanford or even Boise State.

Lets take a look at this and see where highly valued Serbia ranked in 2013

Oh wow, right ahead of Mongolia and Brunei. Congrats my little pissant. I will send in my daughters applications to Belgrade Institute of ass wiping first thing on Monday

Exactly...

Going to admit at this point I didn't read the article yet, but how can you Spend more than you take in.... Maybe they failed math also...

To me it says this ..... Based on the values of what they should be buying / spending verses what they are paid and getting on public assistance, they are making Side Cash......

When I spend 182% of my income, the bank comes looking...

Payday loans? Putting things on credit you can't afford, borrowing money? There's a whole lot of ways you can spend more than you make.

I don't think the people we are talking about have banks.

16 cups of water a day.. that's too much.. not good for kidneys or blood pressure.

People do it all the time. They buy shit on credit (tv's, cars, etc.) and have bills like cellphones, cable bill, etc.

Then they pretty much stay late on all their payments just barely making them in time to keep from losing the shit they have.

It's a juggling act. And lots of people do it.

It wasn't so prevalent when I was younger because there wasn't so much credit, and people had to actually save up to buy stuff. But these days just about everybody has credit card debt and/or goes to the "Rent To Own" store and gets a big flat screen t.v. among other shit that they can't afford.

Seems to me like they are selling top of the line phones: Virgin Mobile | Compare No Contract Android-Powered and Feature Phones

But here is my point... They can afford $50 a month for a cell phone, $100 for cable, they have a flat screen TV, Xbox, games..... But can't pay their heat during the winter? If you can't afford to pay the damn power bill you sell your TV, sell your Xbox, and cut off your cable.

Too many people live off of public assistance. Sorry, this should only be for six months. After that, you are your own.

I have a fifty year old friend who has a thirteen year old daughter, and her entire life she has been subsidized by her mother. She's fifty years old and has never owned a house. She finally has her own place, a crappy apartment, and even then her mother is paying half of her rent. WTF? At a certain point in time you need to stop making excuses and just do it.

I have a friend of mine who does this.... He has two kids, and on paper he doesn't make enough money to support them so he gets some benefits including food stamps. The truth is he runs his own business out of his house and makes plenty of money.

Sounds like my brother's ex-wife. She is 40 years old and her entire life her parents have helped her pay the bills. When she and my brother separated about 2 years ago she moved in with them. They got sick of her living there so they paid all of her bills and half her rent for the next year so she would move out.

She has overdrawn so many checking accounts she can't get a checking account without a co-signer. She lost the apartment she was only pay half rent on and is now sleeping on a friend's couch. Her car was repossessed so mom and dad went out and bought her another. At this point she will never be self-sufficiant

Human nature. If you pay the bills for someone you take away the need for them to pay for themselves.

Congratulations to your brother.

I can understand it if you had some drama in your life, lost your job, got a divorce.... But for her it's been a way of life. I just don't understand how anyone could want to live like this.

I agree. Shit happens in life and sometimes you can use help. My brother's ex has been this way her whole life. Before they were together mom and dad paid most of her bills. Then while my brother was married she would get money from her parent for all kinds of things and never tell him about it. Now they are divorced and she is still doing it.

I think it will be coming to an end soon though. Her mom's crazy spending has run through all of their savings and they just lost their house. Her dad is about to retire from his job so they will have a limited income and her mom has some health issues. So their ability to pay their daughters bills will likely be running out. It will be interesting to see what she will do when that happens.

My brother might be one of the luckiest people ever. His ex is very lazy and she deals with problems by ignoring them and hoping they will go away. Because of this my brother got full custody of their two kids and he doesn't have to pay her any kind of spousal support. She just ignored the divorce papers and it came back to bite her in the ass when he got a default judgment in his favor.

You still can't accept the facts of the phone even after I posted the link to the phone company I use.

Hopeless angry person.


:2 cents:

God forbid that a family member help a poor relative out by paying a phone bill.

It's almost impossible to get food stamps without a phone.

BM, how many members of your family sucking government's cock and live off handouts? Serious question.

keep telling yourself that :1orglaugh now go get your tin can and rocks and start rattling :1orglaugh

Sounds like my ex husband. It's ridiculous. Now he lives in the in-law suite at their house just waiting for them to get sick and die I'm sure.

Some people are perfectly fine to never do more than they need to in order to get by. I can't understand that, I'll never have that mindset.

dude "The Education Index is calculated from the Mean years of schooling index and the Expected years of schooling index"
