Anyone else agree? :P


Nah m8.

The SLI scaling would be better.

Anyway im suprised that with all this money talk, noone has pointed out that it is impossible to run 4 Titan Z's

Traveling more.


Exactly my thoughts too - I'd buy another MGF (they are cheap as chips, convertible, and handle beautifully), ferry crossing to France, then a driving tour of Italy: St Tropez, Monaco, Genoa, Pisa, Rome, Naples, Almalfi coast, then back up thourgh the mountains to Lake Como, Milan, Switzerland and home!

Probably invest in precious metals like gold, silver or even platinum. I don't like holding onto fiat currency :smile:


Volvo currency or at a pinch Seat currency. But not Fiat. :nah:

I thinking more south east Asia, but I guess that works too.
All you saying that you'll give it all to charity are lying.

Nope, definitely not fiat currency since it is absolutely worthless in my hand :smile:

I rather give money voluntarily than being forced too (i.e. Taxes :smile:)
Deposit that ****, I need every bill and coin I could get.

Or get a quick kebab. Depending on how severe my alcohol levels are.

I think it's alot more intuitive giving money to the government to pay for the fact that it underpins and facilitates everything you do over altruism which serves no purpose other than to make you feel better about yourself.

Let me make that decision for myself in what I want to do with with my own money from labour. Is that so hard? It's not my fault that you get your kicks from stealing other peoples money
Next semester's uni fees.

Exciting I know.

If people only gave money when they wanted to, we wouldn't be able to have an effective public service. No health service, social service, libraries, police, fire service or education system could run purely on donations.

The poor actually give proportionally more of their income to charity than the rich. Those with little give away what they have to those that have even less.

I really don't give two hoots about stealing your money. Tax isn't stealing. We live in one society. The wealthy should not have a get out clause from contributing their fair share. They are the thieves. Not the poor wanting public services.

Was I talking about the rich and the poor? Why are you so against people's (I am talking about the individual) right to earn their money from labour and spending on what they want?

You are no different from the elites who run government
