And this is how you stay rich ladies and gentlemen, not blowing your money on stupid shyt you can't really afford.

But..........he can afford it.

nikkas gonna run up in here and try to be deep with it but in my mind he just a cheap bastid. So he's not using any of his money to enhance his lifestyle at all...what does he drive? How does he fly?

A man can live frugal but with that kind of money ain't no real justification for living like a dude who ain't got a pot to piss in.

Probably has other plans with the money like kids or something breh. Too many people don't know how to manage money and think they can afford a million dollar house, and they can afford the house, but what about all the money it costs for upkeep and just to live in it?



Not to mention the property taxes???

Nah its smarter to get a half a milly home or something reasonable. No need to go that extravagant.

wasn't there some baseball pitcher who also lived in a trailer?

on some communist hippy tip?

He's not doing himself any favours, its not like a mortgage would break him or anything.
I understand living like that while you're up-and-coming, but not at that point in his life.
Whatever makes him happy though

If dat were me, dat lil trailer would be packed to da brim wit imported thick ass South American harlots.

My mom used to use Zappos to get em cheap vans and Nikes for school.
He was already a millionaire before Zappos, he went to Harvard for a BS in Computer Science, and he then created LinkExchange

Yeah.

On the subject, being frugal just for the sake of being frugal is pointless. I think he's just on a hipster kick, he actually owned and bought up the area/community around where he lives. Don't be fooled, he's pulling a power play.

Dude owns a jet. He's doing it for effect.

On that eccentric rich dude bullshyt

He's on the board of JetSuite, and has millions invested in the company, I'm sure they give him one anytime he wants.

It's one of the biggest etailers of shoes
@ having no idea who they are

He's clearing OD'ing it for attention or who knows what else. He could easily afford a larger place for a really reasonable price.

asian? makes sense.

While I see what you are saying. If he is a billionaire or worth $840 Million dollars.. Him buying a million dollar house would have damn near zero affect on him.

Its like you being on a budget and saying you are going to save $12,000 a year and at the end of the year you only saved $11,999. Did you really fail at your saving goals?? But at the end of the day if he's happy, what more can you really ask for?!.
