VagisilToothpaste
As much as I love FF and Dave Grohl - if this were almost any other celeb bragging about their fortune and fame - we wouldn't praise them.
LordFenris
Exactly. There's a reason we allow Dave to speak like this. Cause he's Dave fucking Grohl.
The double standard is bullshit, though. Really. When saying THIS kind of stuff - he's no better than a Kardashian.
enderite
He’s a national treasure.

I would watch the shit out of a movie about Nick Cage stealing Dave Grohl to find some ridiculous secret 18th century concert hall

Blink 182’s bass player, Mark Hoppus
What happened to the 181 other blinks?

ReasonableConservative
But it was cackle-warming.
ZOMGNO
Yes, but he was telling a story for comic effect, and therefore he made it sound like there was advice, so the punch-line would be funnier.

His advice was just "be rich" lol

This should be so magnanimously douchey, but because it's Dave Grohl and Mark Hoppus, I don't mind. I kinda love it.

Talking about ones rockstar lifestyle is only douchy if one isn't actually a rock star.
ManByTechnicality
It's not douche because they aren't talking about using their money to take advantage of anybody, just see their loved ones
I believe "Monumentally" would have been the word to use there. http://www.dictionary.com/browse/magnanimous
Seriously though, thanks. I've been using that wrong for a several years and was never advised otherwise.
It feels rude to correct someone, and often others are also unsure. Magnificently also would have worked for you.
Now, your homework.... is to use magnanimous correctly! eg. Bill Gates gave magnanimously for his Secret Santa gift.
Inconceivable!

What's health insurance?
LargeVarge
Something the rich already have and middle class pay taxes so the lower class can have it so life's fair......
annibe11e
Something that costs like $20 a year
JP193
Neutral answer: In the US healthcare works differently - rather than being pulled from tax income it's an billed/insurance thing.
Sounds expensive.
MermaidMonkey
Family of 3, we pay $1816 a month for the lowest coverage insurance, we make just enough to not get any discounts from the state.
Jesus, that is double what I pay for a mortgage. :(
[deleted]
A lot of Americans do NOT like it that way.
Personally, I find it criminally inefficient, since they pay as much tax for health as any other western country AND pay their own too.

No, he's right. The comma after the word "insurance" is superfluous. It is an error that needs to be pointed out.
I invite everyone to educate me on my flaws when typing. Constantly.

Think the anxiety may be different when it's a crowd of people who paid money to see you do something you already did and know they like it.

Maybe I should ask Dave Grohl to help with my down payment.
I hope your tooth feels better
Sorry, just venting. Tooth is painful tonight.
I wish I had a winning lotto ticket so I could help you.

Upper middle class is considered rich by a whole lot of people.
SlightlyFabricated
William Gibson wrote in his novels about how the super rich aren't even remotely human.
Honestly I love cyberpunk but I hate Gibson. He doesn't seem to know much about anything.
Oh. Why do you hate him? I love the Sprawl trilogy.
He has a very cheesy, overdone writing style full of tropes and fluff that is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
colbyshmolby56
What is this upper middle class dreamland you speak of? Can one reach it themselves with student loan debt and a shitty car?
RPhilbin83
Yes. it's not easy, but yes.
Ya, at about 50. Don't worry it's not like you will spend your best years toiling away jobs you hate ;) at least you have the arthritis 1/2
ForTaxReasons
I think you get there faster if you don't have kids
UncleCeiling
As a 31 year old who already had one work-related knee surgery, I can't wait to see how well I hold up by 50.
I'm 25 with a chronic illness that leaves me bed-ridden. So excited for the future. :P

Sometimes I really think about just fucking going rogue and traveling cheap until I die.
