Yes where he has to make all the clothes he ever sold

Imagine life was a game. You lived for 2025 years. You worked 260 days / year. You made the median US salary.

You would need to relive that process 3,145 times to match an Oligarch.

That amount of wealth is unethical while humanity suffers. No one can really fathom “1b dollars.”

WTF is a "Christtime" and why does that chart contradict itself multiple times?

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

The length of time between 1/1/1 and today.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

How is that arbitrary date relevant? What about the contradictions?

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

How is that arbitrary date relevant?

I dunno, I just read the first line in the graphic.

What about the contradictions?

You didn't specify contradictions and this isn't my job.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

If you're not going to respond to my comments, don't respond to my comments.

Read the lines with that "christ date" or whatever made up bullshit that is.

They're pointing out that if you live for 2,000 odd years you would still have to have several thousand lifespans at that extended life length in order to equal Jeff Bezos.

The reason I was able to work that out was because I read the first fucking sentence.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

My point is that 2,025 years is a very arbitrary length of time, "Christtime" isn't a word, and the chart contradicts itself. You could work that out by reading my comments, and beyond the first fucking sentence.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 15 hours ago

In before "well acktually compound interest."

[–] halvar@lemy.lol 13 points 15 hours ago

thats like 6,000,000 years, and as St. Paulie said

"You add up all your mortal sins and multiply that number by 50. Then you add up all your venial sins and multiply that by 25. You add that together and that's your sentence. I figure I'm gonna have to do 6,000 years before I get accepted into heaven and 6,000 years is nothin' in eternity terms. I can do that standing on my head. It's like a couple of days here."

so it seems appropriate

Bonus: he needs to feed himself, pay rent and do taxes using the money he earns. If he dies, he’ll start all over again at $0.

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 9 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (2 children)

whoa whoa whoa, let's be realistic. he also needs to pay electricity, internet, phone, car + car insurance, and then he'll get sick/injured once a year and his shit HSA insurance doesn't cover anything until he hits 7000 dollars in medical expenses, so he'll have to pay for 3k of medical expenses out of pocket

[–] Soup@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago

And he gets to have the option of cheap public transit but it’s underfunded and badly managed on purpose so what should be a calm 30min bus ride is a an hour and half each way. Mock him for spending money on the car “when a bus pass is cheaper.”

When he complains about any of it tell he should just work harder and then raise prices a couple months later and give him a 1% while telling him he should be grateful.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

He needs to crowd fund for car repairs and knew surgery.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 10 points 17 hours ago

My idea is, to capture him and give him a choice, either work for the rest of Your life in the same conditions as Your warehouse employees, or the guillotine. I'm pretty sure he would go for the guillotine after 2 hours.

[–] Juice@midwest.social 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Right he should be paid minimum wage -- Pakistani minimum wage

Well I guess its like $130 usd per month, which would only take 146,730,769 years give or take a few mil to pay off. Chances are he's got about 1/3 of his wealth squirrelled away in the cayman islands or some shit, so lets say a nice round 200,000,000 years to pay it off. My spite says that's not long enough, but it's hell which is supposed to be eternal torment and suffering, so at that point he can be transferred to the level of hell where you are walking through a dark house looking for the bathroom, and you really have to go but you keep smashing your bare toes and shins into furniture , but you never actually find the bathroom

[–] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 20 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Naahhh.. that would give him hope - He'd have infinite time for it, and eventually achieve that. The people he exploits now, don't have a light at the end of the tunel

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 28 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

nono it's okay, we simulate the real world - every time he gets close to getting good savings and builds up hope, we crush it just like on Earth - his car breaks, he or a loved one has a medical emergancy, spice it up sometimes with natural disasters, random price spikes for necessities. he'll never be actually able to save up for a house, let alone the fortune he had when he was alive. he'd be one of the last to get out of hell

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

Okay there, Zeus.

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 6 points 19 hours ago

No he wouldent, assuming you left his money in an account with interest. Even that shitty .02% you get from normal checking accounts, he would never be able to work off the interest alone, its still millions of dollars a day.

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.org 9 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Whatever hell doesn't exist though so I'd rather see him face consequences in real life

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

Maybe soon the technology will exist sort of like that one episode of Black Mirror

[–] Anivia@feddit.org 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Some people believe you get reincarnated after death and live the life of every person that ever lived.

Not saying I believe in that, but that would be a very poetic form of justice/karma

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.org 1 points 1 hour ago

Would could should but it's not happening
