I like how they've obfuscated the number plate of a bright yellow Audi covered in graffiti so no one can ID it.

Also, has he tried simply covering it up?

Simply add the words "olive oil" and people will think you're Filippo Berio!

Side note.

Back in 1960, minimum wage was $1.00/hour and a new Jaguar was about $6,000.00

If a minimum wage worker really wanted one, he could buy a supercar. $1.00 x 40 x 52 =2,080. Three years ot buy the car.

$15.00 x 40 x 52 = 31,000. Ten years work to buy that car.

Three years of not paying tax or buying food, but I get your point

Back in 1960 this story is in the UK and we were never paid in dollars.

If a minimum wage worker wanted a jaguar his mam would have clipped him round the ear and told him to get a grip.

Edit: there's some confusion that I've conflated minimum wage with teenagers... But here. In the North of England, we still have multigenerational houses in the working class... And more than that. If I act like a dafty, my Mam would still happily travel across town to clip me and I'm an old man.

I like the way you buy into the myth that the only people who make minimum wage are teenagers.

That's a mythical myth that isn't true. Hence, calling it a myth.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 37 minutes ago

I like the way you assume that anyone in the UK who has a mam that would clip them is a teenager.

You made a massive assumption on how the working class lives here.

Well yeah, gotta denigrate the youth so we can ignore systemic problems.

"Even if you are doing something good in life, there is a lot of hate. I donโ€™t really have any enemies, I think a lot of people just canโ€™t see someone young, do good. I have a supercar at 20, they canโ€™t put up with it."

Bro is trading crypto and thinking he's a modern hero. I hope someone tags the car again when it's cleaned.

Maybe it's the "Superman does good. You are doing well." situation.

[โ€“] [email protected] 19 points 6 hours ago

Doing good would be donating that money to a good cause, not buying a salesmans super car in attention seeking yellow.

"itโ€™s not much of a loss for me, I make ยฃ6-7,000 in my sleep."

Whereas most people would need to work full time for three or four months, whilst being very much awake, to make the same amount, you vile, immoral parasite.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yep that's exactly where I'm at.

I never understand where these people just obtain their free money glitch. I work hard and can barely sustain things even with absurdly cheap rent.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I mean he's probably lying. But with enough money and enough lack of morality you can still make money pumping and dumping shit coins, I'm sure.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 50 minutes ago

with enough money

There's the problem lol, every time I think about trying to start investing I realize how little money it would make because of how little I have spare to invest.

Maybe a bad way to look at it but it just feels hopeless

I know Lemmy hates rich people but am I the only one who thinks this is too much?

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Nah, I don't particularly care about property damage to wealthy people. They have plenty and it gets money back into the community they're stealing their wealth from. Especially when on a societal level, they care about property more than people.

[โ€“] [email protected] 19 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Nah, it's fine. As another commenter pointed out, owner said so himself:

itโ€™s not much of a loss for me, I make ยฃ6-7,000 in my sleep.

I mean the guy is an arrogant prick, but still, just... why?

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 hour ago

The "virgin" feels targeted so "the guy is an arrogant prick" is a good candidate for your why.

However even it was just opportunistic tagging of someone's conspicuous show of wealth, I'm definitely not against people becoming aware of how their community sees them as compared to how their Instagram following sees them.

Top marks on the post title

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I see paint on the other side, any other angles?

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Only other angle is a picture of the word 'Die' written near the fuel cap.

[โ€“] [email protected] 18 points 5 hours ago

No, that's German for "The virgin, the."

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 7 hours ago

Damn.

Thanks for the link at least.
