    if I were already worth $20M, no, I wouldn’t do horrible things for $2M

    but my net worth is negative because of my mortgage, and I still need to work to live. and let’s not talk about retirement.

    look, I’m comfortable and fairly well off, I acknowledge that. but $2M would mean I would have retirement funded, a paid off home, and flexibility for work. $2M to Bill Burr doesn’t mean the same.

        I’m not saying I wouldn’t do it for the money.

        That being said, I’d like to believe “SMCF would own up to the horrible thing they did for 20$.” If I did the horrible thing, you’d expect me to own up to it. I’d like him to own the horrible thing too.

            You can keep your 20$ secrets friend. I’m just saying if you openly compromise on standards you’ve set for yourself, you should at least be like “my bad but, I was going for the bag”.

            I can respect that a little. Bill didn’t do that, he just hand waved it away. That’s why I don’t fuck with him anymore.
