What a fucking asshole! True “we need to show those uppity peasant who’s boss” energy 🤬

If you can’t put your yacht on a bigger yacht, how is life worth living?
Pfft, you need a golf course on a yacht in a pool on a house on a yacht!

Indeed. Anyone earning more than 40k annual salary belongs to the richest 3% in the world. Get ready gringos, we third world countries are coming for you
When we have nothing to lose, then we have no problem eating the billionaires.
If billionaires ruined the economy in such a way that 50 percent of people couldn’t afford to feed their families then I like to think that people would simply eat the billionaires.

Or did you mean him?

Fair enough 😁
