The range-topper within BMW’s sports car lineup, the 8 Series aims to mix luxury grand touring with an engaging driving experience. The design is more traditional than some of BMW’s more recent unveilings but still has plenty of presence on the road thanks to its sheer size. The cabin’s fit and finish, along with the technology on board means the 8 Series impresses inside and out.
There’s 4x4 drive from the devastatingly quick V8 M850i or M8 Competition models, while a big boot makes the coupe a genuinely practical grand tourer, if you accept that the confined rear seats are only for occasional use. Otherwise the four-door Gran Coupe variant effectively addresses any accommodation problems.

Not when you're awake at 2am and thinking "in another 20 years time, I'll be 65" it isn't.

I think it's getting more difficult to pull off being poor. There's this ambient sense of bourgeois cultural dominance that I didn't feel 5-10 years ago. It's working on us between the lines.

That, and the fact that everything costs more than it used to.

well yes that's true
It's more difficult being anything but super rich, and even that's tricky if you're Russian

Terrible thread
My idea has changed, anyway
so i think now a feasible way to get into the money is to get hold of a crumb of some mega-rich person's fortune - the gap between the tycoons and us normies seems to have increased, but an insignificant proportion of any of their fortunes would be more than ample to get us out of wage slavery

apparently there is a new breed of tik tok influencers showing young enterprising men how to make easy bucks online. they say if you're over 20 and have less then 10k in the bank then you're a pathetic loser

the problem with money is it has become too absurd. it's always been absurd but it's now getting shoved in your face 24/7 how the worst most stupid people you can imagine are raking in money on generic schemes while normal people are killing themselves over not having enough. it simultaneously turns you off to the whole thing while drumming it into you that it's the only thing that matters.
