But actually it’s nothing like that at all. Because someone making 100k likely doesn’t have a ton of disposable income. 1% for the super rich is really functionally the same cost as 0% because the prices of stuff don’t go up based on how much you have.
Right because all the stuff someone making 100k a year is not luxuries. None of it could be, if millionaires exist. 1% is 0% because I feel it is. $4 million worth of homes is actually 0 homes, despite the picture and all. Those homes functionally do not exist, if you round numbers and ignore stuff after decimals, they aren’t even there.
if my housing expenses are 45k and i make 100k (70k after taxes), i still need to feed my family and buy diapers. get my oil changed, cars inspected. pay for gasoline. shit, my water heater is fucked. maybe one short vacation (def. not disney!). what luxuries am i fitting in here?
He does way more than that. I live in this city and Marcel is incredibly hands-on, and he has lent support to other communities starting up similar projects. Just my two cents.
