I have an old "smart" Vizio TV from like 2012 (?) that has outlasted 2 new 4k smart TVs. I'll stick with this guy till it pops

I have enough in my emergency fund that if I lost my job I'd be ok for about a year.

I'm nearly to my goal, after that I'm going to change my focus to expanding my portfolio.

Still no way I can buy a house though. Need to make about 3x more money for that to happen.

I credit it to having a property owner that's kept rent cheap and having low overhead, and being frugal borderline cheap.

The alcohol thing is really just an east coast thing, and Utah.

Unless the driver wasn't insured properly, Taxis cover your bodily injuries in an accident. They should have no medical bills associated with it, and the article is kinda vague on that. If anything they should be taking this up with the insurance company. Unless the driver wasn't insured properly, and Uber didn't do their diligence then yeah it's on Uber.

This seems like these people are trying to sue for more than that though?

Do i believe that Uber is being shady trying to pull some garbage about a separate TOS, yeah that's shady. They should take it to the next level of appellate courts, which I believe would be the Supreme Court now.

Though this isn't apples to apples of the Disney thing.

So they were in an Uber, and ordered food on Uber eats, then the Uber driver crashed? Did I read that right?

Nah, the bullets would've just given up halfway through flight

Betteridge's law of headlines. Any headline that ends with a question the answer is always no.

Sure I can answer that for you.

A regular guy, and you don't have to.

I did watch the video. It's why I asked. Anyone can say they are a consultant, and he doesn't really mention much to back that claim. He doesn't say anything novel either.

I'm not trying to be hypercritical, but if someone says that they are a credible source I want to know why.

Who is this guy and why should I care what he says?

Edit: Since no one could answer it. He's an indie developer and made a few games. Silver Falls, Clasherball, and Animelee. He also says he's a consultant, based on the video, but I couldn't find anything of him doing that.

So he's slightly a step above a regular guy making some video complaining.
