I think I need sleep. I thought you were writing that you got $30 million after your divorce. I was wondering who you were complaining to.

On a serious note. Are you ok?

Oh my damn. I wrote it and still misread it. You’re right.

I figured she lives somewhere expensive, but I probably should’ve used a different word. I just decided to Google and given that she lives in NYC the money doesn’t go as far there as it would in rural West Virginia. I’ve known people who make 100k in NYC that live with multiple roommates.

I don’t think we can conclude it’s 0 from what she wrote. He says he pays Ashley 500k a month and a flat 2.5 million. She says he stopped paying most of it.

I’ll assume he’s being less than honest because of specific credibility issues. If she’s being honest, she gets 250k hard maximum a year. My guess is it’s actually something like 100k. That amount, while survivable, seems very ungenerous for the richest man in the world and it’s enough of a drop from 500k that you would definitely be forced to change your purchases.

EDIT: huge error. misread per month as per year.

Why didn’t you drop the quotes from Turing, Minsky, and Lovelace?

I’d gamble a larger percentage of artists (whether music, acting, or painting) have affluent beginnings than the general population. It’s easier to rise through the struggle of a high risk profession if you have a safety net.

Don’t put the squeeze on the voters. They either didn’t vote for trump, or they were so dumb that they did vote for trump won’t understand why their electric bill went through the roof.

The whole point of democracy is the voters have an impact. If nothing changes for the voters don’t be surprised when they vote for the same party next time.

It’s a good thing we gave his party the majority in both houses of Congress, right?

One of the most convenient things about this era is you can find random parts for just about any product online. Fixing things has never been more accessible.

What’s worse? You can’t quit.

I don’t think they do.
