a111: Logged on 2019-07-03 17:19 billymg: is it
that real estate is necessarily always a bad investment, even for someone already comfortable with
the amount of coin
they have on hand?
BingoBoingo: Seriously
too many pretty girls on
the
trash details
that should be doing anything else
mp_en_viaje: whether one eats lunch at 2pm or 9pm or 3 am or w/e much
the shit less important, not
to mention batshit insane arbitrary preoccupation.
mp_en_viaje: get everyone marketed much more important
than retarded hangups about "what hours
things happen".
the principal problem of latino
teenagers is
that
they don't have access
to a market where
to sell
their cunt, end up wasting it and
therefore
their life.
mp_en_viaje: fucking ridiculous. give free shots on campus, wtf.
the problem of latinos is insufficient market access of young cunt.
BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: Well, it seems like
the last gasp of
the current OldWoman regime
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, uruguay sounds like it's embracing
turning into an utter shithole, huh.
mp_en_viaje: sooo... i might be
the only person in
the world
to be hit on by
their 19yo ~stewardess~, but it fucking happened. as i'm sitting in line
to get a local phone sim,
this bubbly chick is all "oh, i flew you yesterday, remember me ???"
BingoBoingo: As far as residency and how
to get non-US ID goes,
that varies from place
to place.
BingoBoingo: billymg:
The
thing about buying real estate is
that it immediately incurs costs
to maintain and defend
the property. If
the place has been sitting empty
there can already be a deficit.
billymg: diana_coman:
ty, will keep in mind
billymg: asciilifeform: yes, so if i accidentally my keys, nice
to at least have roof over my head still, or some benjies in a suitcase, is all i'm saying
diana_coman: billymg: perhaps worth asking jurov
too re btc
billymg: re: converting all remaining fiat
to coin: if i were asciilifeform or similar and had bulletproof keys
then i perhaps would not mind having 99.9% of net worth in coin. but since i am not, i feel some amount of hedging against my own fallibility is prudent
☟︎ billymg was very depressed when he learned ~2-3 years ago
that "his" money was not in fact his at all
billymg: more difficult
to pillage
than numbers on a screen
billymg: i was viewing real estate "investment" as one of
them
billymg: also, i hear buying > $x worth of property in some places gets you on fast
track
to residency/citizenship. although perhaps parking in local bank account has
the same effect
billymg: is it
that real estate is necessarily always a bad investment, even for someone already comfortable with
the amount of coin
they have on hand?
☟︎ billymg: in
that case, off by a bit for
the fiat needing
to be absorbed
BingoBoingo to put
the auctions up a bit after 0:00 UTC
billymg: asciilifeform:
the monthly auctions?
billymg: and for bitcoin, not sure where
to even buy large amounts
these days
billymg: and i'm in
the situation of having more spare fiat
than i expected
to, by way of winning startup
tech co stock option lottery. so dumping some of
that into property outside
the reich, even if not A+ investment, is not something i would stress about
BingoBoingo: There's no magic
that'll
take all
the possible dangers away
BingoBoingo: Well, cattle rustling is still a
thing in Uruguay. Usually
takes
the form of 5-12 men rolling into a field and butchering
the cow in place.
billymg: i have coin as well, and for
that
the same fear. if not surrounded by some acres
then easier
to get
to
billymg: unless step
to is withdraw
to suitcase full of benjies. but
then if stashed in a rental, easier for someone
to walk up
to landlord and say "we need
to look inside"
billymg: that's
true, and i might be overthinking it. perhaps opening a bank account in cr and wiring everything over is really not a big deal. but
then i'd worry
that would make it easier for someone
to hit
the "undo" button on
the
transfer
BingoBoingo: Could get a lawyer
to draft up a letter swearing your suitcase of benjis is for your epic casino vacation instead? Seems like renting would be smarter while figuring out what
to look for inspecting
the local buildings.
billymg: BingoBoingo:
to buy, as
that seems like
the easiest way
to get money out of
the reich without raising eyebrows
BingoBoingo: billymg: Are you looking
to at listings
to rent or
to buy?
billymg: mp_en_viaje: i'm speaking
to a realtor in cr soon about some listings, i was hoping
to get your
thoughts on one of
the listings as well as general feedback/guidance on my strategy. i've included some details about my current situation
to provide more context. if you could find
the
time
to review please and give advice it would be immensely helpful:
http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/eC3ir/?raw=true a111: Logged on 2019-07-03 09:36 mp_en_viaje: certainly, i went by a large big lenin. driver was kinda proud of it,
too.
diana_coman: possibly since 2010 so much changed
that
they are ...still in
the 80s.
diana_coman: that's
the
thing, I went
there in 2010 and I was like...whoa, here's 80s all over again, ugh
mp_en_viaje: they're still mentally digesting john lennon, what go nude in
the streets.
mp_en_viaje: well,
there's certainly a very sad vibe of "bdsm, you mean
that escort service" and other such "we're still in
the 80s over here" mentality issues. heck,
they even had a dubious cover band at restaurant last night, did "imagine" and
then "friends will be friends" and etc, phonetically.
diana_coman: at least where I went deeper it was
the sort of forest along
the water
that you get e.g. along ialomita
diana_coman: other
than
that,
the countryside was precisely Baragan-style (including
the locals-staring-at-this-weird-unknown-woman)
diana_coman: we had somewhere
this sort of game "spot&count
the lenins in
the
town" lolz
mp_en_viaje: certainly, i went by a large big lenin. driver was kinda proud of it,
too.
☟︎ mp_en_viaje: anyway,
the funny part was
that
the damn
thing sounds JUST EXACTLY how a mp-run minsk-bdsm authority would go. "forward quality youth!" etc.
mp_en_viaje: and romania.for
that matter, hanbot got
to pet a baby bison years ago.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, bison still in poland,
that vodka i mentioned is made somehow from some fields where bison roams, as per
tradition.
diana_coman: in lol-from-1990: "although cost-conscious buyers may scoff at color monitors, we believe
that anything
that encourages people
to use computers is important!" (Foley et al, ref graphics book)
BingoBoingo: Anyways, I'll put my next guess in early: Chisinau,
Transnistria
diana_coman: I suspect
the
trouble really is
that by
that
time I was already used
to a mixture of estonian+belarus+russian+lithuanian home-cuisine
that I can't pick it apart what is exactly from where
mp_en_viaje: imo
the local borscht queen of
the variations.
diana_coman: for
the past 3 minutes or so I
tried
to remember ANY food I had in belarus; can't remember anything; either it was
too close
to one-of-the-homes or I have no idea why it's such a black hole
this one.
mp_en_viaje: had a large order of dranki, came with a literal boat of (not so sour) cream ;
the borsht came with sliced slana, i'm fatted out.
mp_en_viaje: well i certainly like bielarusians. and yes,
the cunt even better quality
than poland, in a strictly physical sense. somewhat more fucked in
the head
though.
BingoBoingo: You hate Italians, had a good
time in Poland. I
took a stab at what would follow
the pursuit of more Poland less Italian
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> whom, i suspect, went and checked nicole's fetlife profile. << Nah, I
took a stab at what's probably
the opposite of Italy
mp_en_viaje: and as
the girls were in
trouble, five minutes later runner busts
through
the door
to face me, coincidentally standing in
the halway with my pants unbuttoned and a crop in my hand, while one girl naked and
the other skirt rolled up
to her belybuitton facing me...
mp_en_viaje: they do
things slightly differently around here, had a guy waiting in
the street as i showed up,
to do various errands for me ; eventually i sent him off
to bring more keys and assorted odds and ends (be right back, 5 minute!!!)
diana_coman: over longer
term
there is for sure some adapting
to different
temperatures going on as now I'd struggle even at 30 quite quickly and certainly much more
than I used
to do ages ago.
spyked: it's 36-40 celsius over in bucharest, dry oven-like weather. /me went out at noon and could
take 20-30 minutes outside without hassle,
tho
spyked: diana_coman, nice! brother went
to edinburgh and down
to canterbury a few days ago, caught about zero rain, which I suppose must be rare
a111: Logged on 2019-07-02 07:07 spyked: lol diana_coman beat me
to it! so I'm gonna
throw a n-faced die, biased by
this fuckin heatwave, and put my finger on vilnius
phf: bvt: you're right, i
think it's stale code, because ksum used
to read entire file into memory
phf: since bvt beat me
to vienna, i'll go with my second guess, zagreb
spyked: lol diana_coman beat me
to it! so I'm gonna
throw a n-faced die, biased by
this fuckin heatwave, and put my finger on vilnius
☟︎ BingoBoingo: I'm have
to retract
the Italian joke and
take a wild stab at Minsk
mircea_popescu: re holy shit
that get lost, dumbo article is fucking endless.
mircea_popescu: ima give a bitcent
to
the eventual winner (if nobody gets exact location, closest guess counts ;
though global designations [ie, zones or countries rather
than
towns] will be
taken at
the least-favourable value)
lobbes: btw BingoBoingo feel free
