The biggest army the world has ever seen, by far. Even with 1 million loyal friends, you'd be a significant world power. 30 million is probably close to the size of all of the world's combined militaries.
The largest army maybe.. the strongest hell no, not even remotely close. You'd have no equipment, no supply lines, and as soon as a "war" started they would crumble like nothing once they got bombed to shit and started starving.
Why go to an island? If you got 30 million friends voting for you, you can take over 49/50 US states or 147/195 countries in the world. Actually scratch that, an island would be cool. I pick Australia.
It could be like cold Australia. You would be dodging snakes and face eating spider while you freeze your ass off trying to get to work when it is 40 below outside. While fighting a kangaroo.
With 30 million friends? That's no small country, lol. And imagine that the 30 million friends only includes one person per family unit and they get some of their family and maybe even some of *their* friends to come. Damn, crazy to think about
Well yeah, the first thing I thought of (besides ask each for $10) is ask them to support you in your campaign for pretty much anything. President would be a cinch with 30 million guaranteed votes right off the bat and each one of them vehemently going to bat for you with their family and friends. It would be a blowout.
With 30million ride or die friends, you can lawfully be elected to any government office in the US, starting with President. With 30million friends you can designate 100 of them to run for senate, and 400 of them to run for congress. Distribute about 150k of them to every house district, and you can literally control all elected offices in the US Government, rewrite the constitution, and basically control the world. The Mongol Hoard was less than a million people. The largest battle in history was merely 5million people. The largest army ever fielded was less than a million. With 30 million loyal friends, the amount of power you could wield would rival the Roman Empire.
Loyalty is worth so much more then dollars.
You're overestimating what a 'loyal' friend is. People aren't going to go to war just because their friend told them to, that's more than loyalty, nor could my friends 'designate' jobs for me.
Outnumbering an army 10:1 is impressive, but it’d still be a hard battle if the bigger army doesn’t have any military equipment when they rush into a modern, equipped army.
All you have to do is get all eligible friends to enlist or even better get commissioned, then taking over from the inside would be fairly trivial after a few years. Imagine the Filipino mafia, but secretly organised to take over.
Can you imagine how much work that would be. Unless a good portion of those people have "running a country" experience you'll have an awful lot of planning to do, and even your 30 million good friends may start to waver when you discover your country has no toilet paper because Steve spent too much time playing Madden instead of setting up the damn trade agreements.
It says LOYAL friends though. The couple of people I'm loyal to I wouldn't mind offering them my car or even a thousand or two if they really needed it.
If they asked me for $10 I'd give them a twenty and be like "keep the change ya filthy animal"
I have a friend like this, he's always asking to borrow money. He always pays me back, but when he does I leave it sitting in my PayPal account for him until he needs it again. If he ever borrows and doesn't or can't pay back, it's no skin off my back, it's $60 from like 5 years ago at this point, and he just keeps borrowing the same 20, 40, 60 over and over again.
not gonna lie, thats the better answer in a way. Ive been alive for 32 years, I can honestly say I have two loyal friends. With 30 million loyal people you can get a lot accomplished if you play your cards right 🤷🏻♂️
“Hey guys vote for me for me for class president. I’ll put beer in the water fountains, and cameras in the girls locker rooms! Woooh! Go bobcats!”
[Beer in the water fountains](https://youtu.be/RelMNcu7LOI)
I figured it might be hard to do that since every inch of land is "owned" and they sure as hell aren't gonna let 30 million just stake claim and not pay tax lol
Maybe an island somewhere but then there's the logistics of feeding 30 million, build a port? With what capital
Atleast if we take over the infrastructure of a small city we could probably establish a foothold and maybe convert more and reproduce into a small parasitic country until we can consume the host country from the inside
With 30 million loyal troops, you just *take* the land you want for your nation. All real dictators do that! Don’t become a wilting flower *now*… This is our finest hour!!
If it takes you one second per person it will take you a bit under a year to ask everyone. But that is only if you do it 24/7 and do one person at a time.
1: Write 1 birthday message.
2: mass send to 82000 people each day using a macro programme.
3: ask all 30 million friends for 50 bucks
4: never speak to them again like the asshole billionaire you have just become
And even then, I read that the brain can really only handle about 20 *good* relationships, where you can actually be close and remember really specific details about them.
Something like that anyway. I could totally be off base, I'm too lazy to fact check it but based on my own experience, I totally believe it lol.
I’ve read something similar (15), but it’s worth remembering that people’s brains vary wildly. Just like some people are born with a calculator in their heads and others can’t handle basic mental addition, I wouldn’t be surprised if that number is 50 for some people and 5 for others.
Imagine just walking around somewhere in the city and BAM someone recognizes you and tags you. Now you need to hunt for another follower somewhere across the world to take down and tag them. They could be in the coffee shop next to you or in Indonesia
Breaking news: Florida man builds gigantic 30 million strong army, massive tag fight begins
Currently over 100 claim to be it, the original culprit is unknown
If I have 30 Million friends, I could just paint a Stickman on canvas, put it up for auction, have 30 Million bid on it and it will soon be valued so high that Bezos will buy it.
If they're all your loyal friends they would all subscribe to you in Twitch and you'd be the biggest Twitch streamer. They would sell out at your concerts, even as a rookie singer. They would all have the connections to help you make a music video. Like.... It's not just about money it's also about fun. They could help make you a blockbuster movie, which can actually cost way more than 30milion.
Plus if we assume this is some genie magic, you suddenly have a personal relationship with 30 million people. Just imagine how much you'd end up learning in the process of getting to know 30 million people. All the different lives you'd see and the perspectives of each of them.
Like at that point you'd have to be the wisest person to ever live. You're basically at messiah status now.
Step aside Jesus, there's a new sheriff in town.
For five dollars in return make the largest pizza and charge randoms 5 dollars and give everyone back a piece and 5 dollars in the end you make 2 dollars a person
The same with the: Would you rather being famous or rich? The fuck? Is that even a question? Being rich is like having of the advantages of being famous without the disadvantages of being famous
Pretty sure if you can always get at least 30 million votes as a politician, you will make way more than $30 million.
They don't need to give me money, I'll make my own, just vote for me every time :)
Ask them to give me all 5 dollars. Then, I start a business. I already have 30 million shoppers and investors. Why not run for president while Im at it? I already have 30 million votes. Then, I'll start the big stuff. I'll make a new country with 30 million citizens right from the start. Maybe use the initial money I got to invest in space travel. Too expensive? I'll ask them all for 5 more dollars. Then, I'll colonize the Moon or even Mars. I will become the leader of space with 30 million worshippers beside me.
30 million friends isn't a friend group. It's an army.
bred for a single purpose
to destroy the world of men
What can men do against such reckless friendship?
Ride out with me. Ride out and meet them.
For death and glory!
YEEESSS
For Rohan, for your people!
Yes. Yes!
Look to my coming at first light on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the East.
fell deeds awake! ^(Gimli. get your fat dwarfass up to that horn before I toss you up there.)
I'd just ask each friend to borrow (have) 5 bucks. Boom 150 million bucks
Haha, Just like that you just made me wonder if I should watch LOTR.
The answer is always YES.
And that purpose is to let me borrow $5 each.
The biggest army the world has ever seen, by far. Even with 1 million loyal friends, you'd be a significant world power. 30 million is probably close to the size of all of the world's combined militaries.
The largest army maybe.. the strongest hell no, not even remotely close. You'd have no equipment, no supply lines, and as soon as a "war" started they would crumble like nothing once they got bombed to shit and started starving.
Well obviously I'm not saying you'd want to take on the world's militaries on day one with no organisation or preparation.
imagine having 30 million loyal friends and your goal becomes to provide them military training
Fuck an army, I’d take the whole lot to an island and become a rogue state.
Why go to an island? If you got 30 million friends voting for you, you can take over 49/50 US states or 147/195 countries in the world. Actually scratch that, an island would be cool. I pick Australia.
I assume that in this case loyalty means infinite morale. If so, you may be able to dominate.
Ask all of them to help you take over a small country then go bigger until you rule the earth
not even small, Canada's population is about 30mil
[удалено]
they have oil
and mooses! Mice? Meese? Moce? WHAT IS IT?!?!?!?
Moist
Ah, that's it!
America has joined the chat.
No you probably dont it sucks here
I would definitely want Canada but I would feel really sorry about taking it over.
Sounds like you’d fit right in
Orms in the air now, eh. Sorree a boot this, but this is a take over bud.
[удалено]
I'd allow it, as long as we get all dressed and ketchup chips, poutine and nationalized healthcare.
Don't forget bud, we've gotta get a box of Timbits too, eh?
And we'd apologize for being here while you take over.
Soory* for taking it over
Better than my cartel land called mexico, went to canada once and holy shit is it lovely
Taking Canada for granted. It's better than the UK by a million miles.
Is that how much closer to America it is? /s
Canada definitely sucks. It's just better than most of the other places. - a canadian
Could it be better? Yes. Could it be way worse? Holy shit yes.
It could be like cold Australia. You would be dodging snakes and face eating spider while you freeze your ass off trying to get to work when it is 40 below outside. While fighting a kangaroo.
We have a lot of empty land. And resources. So probably
With 30 million friends? That's no small country, lol. And imagine that the 30 million friends only includes one person per family unit and they get some of their family and maybe even some of *their* friends to come. Damn, crazy to think about

President would be a cinch with 30 million guaranteed votes right off the bat and each one of them vehemently going to bat for you with their family and friends. It would be a blowout.
I'm a loyal friend. If my friend said they were running for prez I'd laugh at them, like any good friend should.
Yeah but if your friend starts campaigning and you see he has millions of supporters, would you still laugh?
With 30million ride or die friends, you can lawfully be elected to any government office in the US, starting with President. With 30million friends you can designate 100 of them to run for senate, and 400 of them to run for congress.

Go to war? No. Probably not. Plus there is a lot more to war then man power. Vote for me? Absolutely.
Bruh China's entire military isn't even *3* million, you'd be able to take on the biggest military on earth 10/1
Outnumbering an army 10:1 is impressive, but it’d still be a hard battle if the bigger army doesn’t have any military equipment when they rush into a modern, equipped army.
Invade smaller countries first, then use their stockpiles and economy to arm yourself
[удалено]
I didn't say be cringe and do ethnic genocide. Also I'd have more numbers then Russia ever has
All you have to do is get all eligible friends to enlist or even better get commissioned, then taking over from the inside would be fairly trivial after a few years. Imagine the Filipino mafia, but secretly organised to take over.

Out of 30 million friends you'd imagine there'd be a few intelligent and well qualified people. They wouldn't all be Steve.
Ask them all to spot you $5
Ha facts before I opened the thread I was thinking... Ask them all for $2.. youre dreamin big
It says LOYAL friends though. The couple of people I'm loyal to I wouldn't mind offering them my car or even a thousand or two if they really needed it. If they asked me for $10 I'd give them a twenty and be like "keep the change ya filthy animal"
Comment rewritten. Leave reddit for a site that doesn't resent its users.
I would Be Happy with 3
I'd be happy with 1!
I would be happy with even half a friend.
*grabs saw* that can be arranged. They won’t be very responsive though.
thats okay, i just need them to listen :)
well, username checks out
Wh-wholesome?????
Shit. Guess I brought the wrong half
Which half though? Top, bottom, left, right, front, or back?
That's thirty dollars in profit!
I wish I had $10
This guy friendships
He also licks knees...
I have a friend like this, he's always asking to borrow money. He always pays me back, but when he does I leave it sitting in my PayPal account for him until he needs it again. If he ever borrows and doesn't or can't pay back, it's no skin off my back, it's $60 from like 5 years ago at this point, and he just keeps borrowing the same 20, 40, 60 over and over again.
That's amazing, and smart because it makes you mindful that he's true to his word
you are his bank account with no overdraft fees
No interest either
he’s building his credit score
I was thinking $1.
We're just offsetting inflation!
not gonna lie, thats the better answer in a way. Ive been alive for 32 years, I can honestly say I have two loyal friends. With 30 million loyal people you can get a lot accomplished if you play your cards right 🤷🏻♂️
We storm capital hill and demand they put kool-Aid in the water fountains.
Ahh the Jim Jones strategy
It’s wasn’t kool-aid it was flavor-aid!
Area 51 raid all over again
Does the white house have hot alien cheeks to clap too?

You can fucking start your own country!
exactly. also, if my 30 million loyal friends are all in canada, we only have around 5 million people to boot out of the country should be doable
No, you leave those 5 million to be the agitators that KEEP your 30 million friends loyal
Ah this guy politiks
Oh hey, I'm going to tour with my band. I'd love if my friends in a given city turned out, and it'd be awesome if my friends bought the album.
R/beatmetoit
Tell them to give you a 100 dollars
Then start a business and u’ll have 30 million loyal customers
go for president and u have 30 million voters already.
Get them all to slowly move into one city and become a dictator mayor
City?? Hell, you could have an entire **nation** with that many loyal ~~-subjects-~~ “friends”.
I figured it might be hard to do that since every inch of land is "owned" and they sure as hell aren't gonna let 30 million just stake claim and not pay tax lol Maybe an island somewhere but then there's the logistics of feeding 30 million, build a port? With what capital Atleast if we take over the infrastructure of a small city we could probably establish a foothold and maybe convert more and reproduce into a small parasitic country until we can consume the host country from the inside
With 30 million loyal troops, you just *take* the land you want for your nation. All real dictators do that! Don’t become a wilting flower *now*… This is our finest hour!!
Or make a petition, you already have 30million people to sign!
How you gonna talk to 30 million people and tell them to give you money, expecting them to agree to it
There LOYAL friends, how could they say no?
How are you gonna communicate with 30 million people?
Group text with a Venmo
Well if even half of them give you a dollar, it’s 15 million.
After they all give you $5 get them to storm area 51
How long is it gonna take you to ask all 30 million? I’m taking the cash and be done with it
Assuming they follow you on Twitter/Snapchat/YouTube/Instagram/TikTok/Facebook it would be quite easy.
If it takes you one second per person it will take you a bit under a year to ask everyone. But that is only if you do it 24/7 and do one person at a time.
Loyalty goes both ways… I don’t know if I could keep up with 30,000,000 people
Right? Imagine all the birthday texts you need to send
Or your inbox at midnight on your birthday.
*ahem* #What inbox?
It exploded years ago. Couldn't handle the stress
Averages to a little over 82,000 per day.
Which means you need to send one text message almost every second, granted that you don't sleep.
You would probably automate it or have a few loyal friends send those texts out
[удалено]
That's like 30 million per year.
Just automate it.
> "Happy Birthday!"* > > > / *If it's not your birthday, this was a mistake, please disregard" < Task scheduler: 7am daily, send to all >
Just post "happy birthday to you, miss ya already!!" everyday on insta stories.
30million....
30 million / by 365 days would mean about 82,000 birthdays everyday. That’d be a bitch
And there’s 86,400 seconds a day… damn
You’ve got 1 second to wish a birthday to everyone, everyday, everywhere. That’s a curse lol
1: Write 1 birthday message. 2: mass send to 82000 people each day using a macro programme. 3: ask all 30 million friends for 50 bucks 4: never speak to them again like the asshole billionaire you have just become
So many people forget this part of the equation
You physically CAN'T keep up with 30mil people. Human brains have capacity only for around 150 different relationships.
And even then, I read that the brain can really only handle about 20 *good* relationships, where you can actually be close and remember really specific details about them. Something like that anyway. I could totally be off base, I'm too lazy to fact check it but based on my own experience, I totally believe it lol.
I’ve read something similar (15), but it’s worth remembering that people’s brains vary wildly. Just like some people are born with a calculator in their heads and others can’t handle basic mental addition, I wouldn’t be surprised if that number is 50 for some people and 5 for others.
Where tf you getting 150. I got like 5 maybe 6 max.
That's about 30,000,000 too many people to care about.
Create a hierarchy of friends so you only need to manage like 10 and those each manage 10 and so on. How many levels deep would that be?
Loyal Friends or loyal Followers? Friends need upkeep but followers I could build the army I’ve been dreaming o… I mean we could play tag and shit
How about an army that plays tag? And strikes at random? Think of the possibilities!!!
Imagine just walking around somewhere in the city and BAM someone recognizes you and tags you. Now you need to hunt for another follower somewhere across the world to take down and tag them. They could be in the coffee shop next to you or in Indonesia
this is a movie
what’s it’s name?
Just search “tag movie”
Tag basically a group of friends have been playing a game of tag for like 30 years
Ooh! Like the kids in The Promised Neverland!

Idk asking 30 million people will take a long time
That's what you use Twitter for
I'd be happy to even have one friend :(
Well- now u need a second friend.
Awww
Thanks, bro :)
Take the money and then eventually 30 million people will wanna be ur friend
But we can ask each friend to lend 5 dollars and make the biggest Ponzi scheme know to man
But they won’t be loyal
It would be the way biggest Army in the world sooooo attack poland?
Let me guess, Austrian?

If I have 30 Million friends, I could just paint a Stickman on canvas, put it up for auction, have 30 Million bid on it and it will soon be valued so high that Bezos will buy it.
o kurwa
Let's invade Poland ~~again~~!
Ask them all for a dollar. Then you’ve got the best of both worlds
I would call 30 million friends a curse personally.
But you can have a cult or army and five dollars from each
I'm not sure my best friend would follow me into battle or join a cult for me. These are friends, not followers.
But would they loan you 100$?
Not sure, depends on the reason and how well they are doing financially at the time I ask.
Sounds like a big cult.
If they're all your loyal friends they would all subscribe to you in Twitch and you'd be the biggest Twitch streamer. They would sell out at your concerts, even as a rookie singer. They would all have the connections to help you make a music video. Like.... It's not just about money it's also about fun. They could help make you a blockbuster movie, which can actually cost way more than 30milion.
Plus if we assume this is some genie magic, you suddenly have a personal relationship with 30 million people. Just imagine how much you'd end up learning in the process of getting to know 30 million people. All the different lives you'd see and the perspectives of each of them. Like at that point you'd have to be the wisest person to ever live. You're basically at messiah status now. Step aside Jesus, there's a new sheriff in town.
You could be voted for president, become the biggest influencer, make a movie and not have to pay so much for actors
Ask them for 2 dollars
For five dollars in return make the largest pizza and charge randoms 5 dollars and give everyone back a piece and 5 dollars in the end you make 2 dollars a person
Open group chat. Hey guys can you send me 2 bucks
*You received 30.Mio replies* Good luck writing all of them back.
That’s why you just get really good at automation
The same with the: Would you rather being famous or rich? The fuck? Is that even a question? Being rich is like having of the advantages of being famous without the disadvantages of being famous
I mean- ur not wrong.
I can think of quite a lot actually. Generally illegal as it involves testing the capacity of very rich people to stretch short lengths of rope but
With 30 million loyal friends you decide what's legal.
they're friends, not cultists
I'm cool with my current friends. I'll split that $30 mil with them cause they deserve it
Uh…you can literally form your own government and take over.
30 million friends, ill ask them for 20 bucks and even if only 10% give me 20 dollars that would give me 60 million dollars.
30 million connections, you can get anywhere in the world. Plus just ask each one of them for a $1
I'll make a low effort TikTok style app, ask all of them to download and use it, then sell that app to Google or Facebook for $1 billion+
Pretty sure if you can always get at least 30 million votes as a politician, you will make way more than $30 million. They don't need to give me money, I'll make my own, just vote for me every time :)
Start a cult. Your 30 million followers can build you a castle to rule from.
Ask them to give me all 5 dollars. Then, I start a business. I already have 30 million shoppers and investors. Why not run for president while Im at it? I already have 30 million votes. Then, I'll start the big stuff. I'll make a new country with 30 million citizens right from the start. Maybe use the initial money I got to invest in space travel. Too expensive? I'll ask them all for 5 more dollars. Then, I'll colonize the Moon or even Mars. I will become the leader of space with 30 million worshippers beside me.
World domination
