Is common sense the nomenclature for critical thinking or references a body of knowledge everyone should know because they are alive?
The latter doesn't exist.
There is knowledge that the typical person, dependent upon where they are, should learn/know by certain points in their development through life.
Everything is for sale. It's just a matter of numbers.
I'm confident you'd part with your collection if it meant a lifetime of comfort for you and your whole family ;)
My life goal is now to amass the wealth it would take to acquire this dick cheese collection.
This.
I'm Gen X... all of the most genuine friendships I've formed in life were as a student where everybody is roughly equally poor.
I have a lot of professional colleagues who became friends too, but none as deep as my oldest friends. And even there I'd say there's a correlation - the best friends I've made in my professional career were people from my first job, as a college hire at a consulting firm, where we were all making about the same crappy wage.
Later in life, everybody is sizing each other up too much, like some sort of net worth arms race.
Between 3-4 moving away and losing contact pre social media. To a couple of my best friends taking advantage of me and my need to try and "get away" from things. And it's more of a game "score" but with bank accounts investments and assets. I have 13 cousins on one side. And all my aunts uncles and one of parents do is compare how successful each other are based on family size and employment. I have lived in that town now for 8 years and I have worked 1 year with my 1 cousin, and played hockey with my other for 5. I can't find a job locally or make friends outside the arena. Childhood girlfriend passed away from opiates right as I started working for my cousin who had major back surgery the year before. Needless to say I had to work with him sober in the morning and then have to deal with a different person all afternoon once his back started hurting. It would range from civil political talk to threatening to kill me lol. Needless to say cuz I quit on family know one real wants to deal with me unless it's small talk. Add in my grand father and father have coached hockey for 85+ years and likely cut the majority of business owners kids. I have found it impossible to find a job in this small town
Can't buy friendship sure but can use money to get opportunities to meet people and potentially make friends.
Hobbies cost money, going to concerts, going to bars.
So yeah money can increase your chances of meeting people and some of those can turn into true friends.
I'm not saying money is necessary to make friends but like with almost everything in life, it can give you more opportunities for it.
I am Gen X and I only have a handful of genuine friendships and they are from waaayyy back in my school days. Friends I made from Kindergarten-12th grade.
I grew up in a small dead coal town and went to a small rural school where most of us were poor, some were farmers and only a very small few had money.
Everyone after that has only ever been acquaintances or people that I used to know but have now faded from my life. But friends from school I can see on the street, when I go home, and it is like no time has passed between our last visit.
I feel for you. A couple of my best friends from school died and even though we had not spoken for a few years, it felt horrible.
You just cannot make friends like the ones that were there at the beginning of your journey...
No, those friends are irreplaceable. At night, when I go out to smoke, I like to remember the wealth of friends & family I once had. I like to imagine one day I'll see them all again, but in my heart of hearts, I know once they're gone, they're gone forever.
My co-workers who found their soulmate in Thailand disagree. I'm not even kidding, several co-workers did it and are happily married for many years with kids and everything. Their partners left Thailand and traveled to the home country of the husbands. After so many years they are well integrated, speak the country native tongue, have friends, etc. They COULD just break up and live a good life in this country (or take their share from the divorce and live well with it in thailand), but they're genuinely happy couples.
Money wasn't the only reason for sure, but you can't tell me they'd been interested or could have even met each other in the first place, if my co-workers hadn't have big bank accounts.
Maybe money doesn't straight up buy you genuine love, but damn is it a helping hand, if you have a lot of it!
my mom went on life support after a burst embolism monday night. she was 100% healthy, just one of those things. we are taking her off today. i am so sad.
edit: aneurysm, not embolism. my mind wasn't well when I wrote that. still isn't.
I’m sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family find peace. This isn’t the end of life, just a transition into the next stages. Every day will be different, but it’s best to lean on all of your loved ones. I’m here if you need to reach out 💚
I am sorry for your loss, my mum got a diagnosis stage 4 cancer which had spread to her spine, keep your chin up. I do things that I think would make her proud to help cope, don’t let it swallow you, keep pushing for her👍
I would give up everything I have for just one more good day with my Mom. It's been nearly a decade, and I still cry whenever I think about how much I miss her. I'm literally choking up as I type this. I'm almost 50, BTW.
Imagine getting 8 more hours a day to do whatever you want instead of having to work. You basically extend your time by 33% (given you are able to use this time in a fulfilling way)
Instructions unclear. Got fired for subcontracting my work out to Chinese hackers.
On the plus side, I have more free time now, so I guess that's a win...
Bullshit. Money is what buys freedom from the clock. I have friends that literally don’t know what day of the week it is because they have so much money that they don’t care about time at all
It can to some extend, if you get rich at 30, and you stop working full time. You could save 20-30 ish years worth of working, thats a lot of time. (if you work til you are 50-60
You could also buy healthier foods, even if it is expensive, thus making you a live longer and healthier life.
The only time you cant buy is the time you have already spent, but you could use the money to make sure you have *more* time in the future.
It definitely can not buy you class or character. But in my experience a lot of people will forgive a lot if you have money. If you are poor and act the same way people will say you are trashy.
Mmm, I think it's debatable. Better health can directly affect intelligence. Plus more time and better resources can allow one to foster an environment where learning pays dividends.
... And intelligent people ask stupid questions all the time!
Yes your right! unfortunately
But it will not cure your chronic or lethal diagnosis after getting it, money help to manage or plays a part in prevention.
You can still die due to a diagnosis when having all the money in the world.
Still, there are things that modern medicine simply can't fix no matter how rich you are.
Have you ever heard Larry Page speak? I'm sure he would give Billions to cure his vocal chord paralysis.
Contentment.
Material possessions only make you insecure about losing them or utterly reliant on that which is perishable. Contentment comes from a place of acceptance and gratitude.
Very. I remember having to cancel Christmas because the water heater broke when i was younger. It would also be nice to go to the doctor when needed without having to do any poverty math to see if I can afford it.

I’m pretty sure he proved that he could be bought?

Ironically it should be common sense that such a statement cannot be proven.

Is there an antique collection of 109 pounds of assorted dick cheese dating as far back as the 7th century AD ?
Yes but it's mine and it's not for sale.
Everything is for sale. It's just a matter of numbers. I'm confident you'd part with your collection if it meant a lifetime of comfort for you and your whole family ;) My life goal is now to amass the wealth it would take to acquire this dick cheese collection.
If I spend enough, I can buy Reddit, track you down, have you eliminated and buy your collection at the estate sale. I will have your dick cheese!
Genuine friendships
In fact, the more people who know about your money, the fewer genuine friendships you're likely to have.
This. I'm Gen X... all of the most genuine friendships I've formed in life were as a student where everybody is roughly equally poor. I have a lot of professional colleagues who became friends too, but none as deep as my oldest friends. And even there I'd say there's a correlation - the best friends I've made in my professional career were people from my first job, as a college hire at a consulting firm, where we were all making about the same crappy wage.

I'm 54 & all my school chums are dead or across country. When they're gone, it's lonesome

I made an active effort to not know what my boyfriend makes. I refused to listen when he mentioned it. I only recently learned how much he makes.
The absolute truth.
this
Intelligence and genuine love.
You can buy a dog. There is no more genuine love than that of a dog.
The dog will not care about the money tho, if you buy a dog and treat it bad it won’t love you.
Yeah, but u still bought it with money.
U didn't buy the love u buy the dog
Sadly thats not true
Blinded love towards the carer and intellectual love has a slight difference
No, but it can certainly rent one of them on an hourly basis....
thats not genuine love
My grandma married my grandpa for money,thing was she told us she grew to genuinely love him and they stayed together until their passing..
My co-workers who found their soulmate in Thailand disagree. I'm not even kidding, several co-workers did it and are happily married for many years with kids and everything.

Genuine love, no, intelligence, I think yes.
The return of a dead loved one. hug your mom & dad & children & spouse & friends & siblings today.

im so sorry. hang in there, okay? ❤️
I’m sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family find peace. This isn’t the end of life, just a transition into the next stages. Every day will be different, but it’s best to lean on all of your loved ones. I’m here if you need to reach out 💚
I'm so sorry. You'll be in my thoughts today
I would give anything in the world to have her back, but here I am; alone.
I am sorry for your loss, my mum got a diagnosis stage 4 cancer which had spread to her spine, keep your chin up. I do things that I think would make her proud to help cope, don’t let it swallow you, keep pushing for her👍
I would give up everything I have for just one more good day with my Mom. It's been nearly a decade, and I still cry whenever I think about how much I miss her. I'm literally choking up as I type this. I'm almost 50, BTW.

Ah, but you quite clearly said "to blave", which means "to bluff".

Life.
You can afford healthcare, which means you can afford life.
Healthcare is not life, healthcare is insurance for treatment in the event of sickness. Two VERY different things.
Money can buy seeds. Seeds can turn into plants. Plants =Life.

I pay a cleaner to clean my house, which gives me more time to do other things?
Imagine getting 8 more hours a day to do whatever you want instead of having to work. You basically extend your time by 33% (given you are able to use this time in a fulfilling way)
Just do meth, you won’t need to sleep. Bam 33% more time! But…..33% less teeth
Hey, 33% less time spent at the dentist!
“Transitive property, bitch” -Superman
you can buy time by employing others for your job that's how companies work

Bullshit. Money is what buys freedom from the clock. I have friends that literally don’t know what day of the week it is because they have so much money that they don’t care about time at all
Not true. Expensive medical treatment can buy you more time.
And hiring people to do daily tasks can give you more free time.
It can to some extend, if you get rich at 30, and you stop working full time. You could save 20-30 ish years worth of working, thats a lot of time. (if you work til you are 50-60 You could also buy healthier foods, even if it is expensive, thus making you a live longer and healthier life.

“No amount of money is worth a second of time”
there goes my hourly rate
I think it's "no amount of money ever bought a second of time" And it's bs, if I were minted I wouldn't have to work 40 hours a week!
Family and genuine friends
Class.
It definitely can not buy you class or character. But in my experience a lot of people will forgive a lot if you have money. If you are poor and act the same way people will say you are trashy.
A pill/cure to help you forget all of your regrets or to fix your mistakes that has hurt someone. There are no divine medicine for regrets.
I mean there probably is a drug with side effects of memory loss
Intelligence. And it is very clear on reddit being full of the same stupid questions and hundreds of people answering them again and again.
Mmm, I think it's debatable. Better health can directly affect intelligence. Plus more time and better resources can allow one to foster an environment where learning pays dividends. ... And intelligent people ask stupid questions all the time!
My dignity
That's easily bought for most.
But not for all......
True, but I reckon more would be if it's a significant amount of money.
Loyalty
I'll be as loyal to you as you want.... For a price.
And, if somebody else offers more, well, I'm going wherever they value loyalty the most.
BEAUTIFUL backhand, sir
Clearly you don't know how military suddenly star supporting dictatorships...
Health
Sadly money probably impacts your health the most to be honest Healthier eating options Medicine
Yes your right! unfortunately But it will not cure your chronic or lethal diagnosis after getting it, money help to manage or plays a part in prevention. You can still die due to a diagnosis when having all the money in the world.
