News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

We all knew this was a pump and dump scheme. Spez got his, fuck everyone else.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago (1 children)

did he really though? because I'd read a big chunk of that massive 100+ million dollar compensation was shares vested after IPO based on performance.

hopefully it ruins them all.

He sold 500 000 shares for a big fat paycheck. It's not 100 millions of fictional dollars, but he still made out like a bandit.

I'm not so sure. That is only $25 million or so. Who can live on that?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, this guy isn't even going to be able to afford caviar for dinner every night. That's not living.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

$25 million will allow you to, at best, snort cocaine off a hooker’s forearm. Not doing it off her ass is like seeing a partial eclipse.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Me. I can live on that. I would have to change my habits like eating more but that’s something I am willing to change.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Lobster and sushi only on days that end with a Y. It'll be tough cutting back but he'll manage.

I bet i could live even off 24 Million, call me crazy

I'd have to live like a hobo tho

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I could live comfortably for the rest of my life on 1/25th of that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Or you could buy a house within a reasonable distance of a major city.

The statement you made should be in response to someone who says they need more money rather than less.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Sure. I'm just pointing out that a million bucks isn't that much in the grand scheme. A life-changing amount to just get one day,, sure. But it's still basically "own a house" rich. Woopty-do. Every boomer within 10 miles of a major metro with a paid of mortgage is nearly a millionaire just in their primary residence.
