Bro, the most expensive thing you’ll ever purchase isn’t your house or your car, it’s your f* government.
A middle-class pro pays more than $1 million in taxes over a lifetime. That’s ~20 years of obligation service just to fund the state, pre inflation! Enjoy.

I worked it out recently the true tax rate, including inflation, is easily over 90%. It’s horrific.
Can you show us your notes? I think you're right. I want to be able to prove it to the next person.
No thanks, but no thanks.
It was a discussion but basically we realised that over a lifetime; income taxes eat half your income, spending shaves off another chunk through hidden taxes, and inflation quietly destroys whatever is left, unless you own scarce, taxed-to-death assets which you likely can’t afford. Inflation is the killer because it goes unnoticed by most.
Yeah. Its obscene.
Save yourself and maybe others will follow.
