people actually believe they own their "castles" and the bikes in their garage, when in fact in most cases the bank owns it all and they're paying on a 30yr mortgage which after 30yrs literally nets the bank a free home in interest payments equivalent.


and what's really both amusing and troubling is that these home "owners" are stuck with the property taxes for homes the bank in reality owns! but it's like they never see it in those terms.

it's a giant con game wrapped up in a ponzi stock "market" with all kinds of tax schemes perpetrated on you the debt-slave, while you proudly exclaim, "i pay my taxes". LOL

ever hear of Stockholm Syndrome?

edit: think about why home prices are so high, esp in terms of stagnating wages. (see above quote in my previous post -- all part of the turning up of debt-slave screws, since 1913.)

Agree 110% and look at cost of higher education and cost of living, all designed to keep the working class debt slaves whilst the 1% and .01% get richer.

Over here we have capital gains tax so even if you work your arse off to get ahead.......along comes the tax man.

Also a good joke
"Indian Chief "Two Eagles was asked by a white U.S. government official, "You have observed the white mand for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progess, and the damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement.

The official continued, "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"

The Chief stared at the government official then replied,

"When white man find land, Indians running it, not taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women do all the work, medicine man free, Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing all night having sex."

Then the Chief leaned back and smiled, "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."
 
I can trivialize this by saying, "Why aren't you taking my financial advice? My financial decisions are more intelligent than yours." This is what it comes down to, I can point out that we're all idiots, no suckers for buying a depreciating asset. We all made an emotional decision to buy the V4 not an objective one.

There is nothing wrong with buying the bike cash or financing, just be realistic about the situation.
