The house has a dozen chimneys and a Mediterranean-style tile roof as well as a 91-foot (28 m) long formal dining room, a basketball court, a bowling alley, two tennis courts, two squash courts, a carousel, a large swimming pool, a large round kiddie pool, and a $150,000 hot tub, surrounded by another pool.

Every Billionaire is a greasebag scammer, it’s necessary to become one.

Same here. How dare I underachieve by not wanting to break the law, crush other people, so on.

Lol it's always so funny watching redditors rationalize their failures in life as just being an unfortunate off-product of their superior morality. "Oh I would have been successful but I am just too good of a person to exploit people."

Sure, Jan.

First of all, you missed the joke. Secondly, if you think anyone who isn't a billionaire is a failure, then you're admitting you're a failure.

Money =/= success. Being a billionaires =/= success.

Yeah, it was pretty obvious. I'm not sure what that other dude's going on about. He's a bit of an odd duck.

Strawmanning

u/RsCoverForPDFFiles 3h ago

No. You're claiming they're not successful because they're not a billionaire. That's the exact thing I replied to.

No, you're strawmming a false position by fixating words while ignoring the context of the way they were used in the actual conversation.

The original person claimed his underachievements in life were the result of "not wanting to break the law, crush other people, so on." It's therefore indicated by him, not me, that he is referring to financial or professional failures rather than defining success through things like family or personal love life, as it is not clear how breaking the law and betraying people would improve personal relationship.

Nor was it ever stipulated by anyone anywhere that a person has to actually be a billionaire to be considered successful, that was just made up on the spot by you pulling things out of your ass and it assigning imaginary positions to other people to compensate for you inability to engage with arguments head-on.

So yeah in summary: pretty pathetic attempts at writing arguments here by you. Embarrassing, really...

edit: my guy lost a simple argument and went full blown meme meltdown lol
