Janus, not sure where you get this claim that I don't have empathy, especially as much as you dislike the wealthy, but 10% of my net has always gone to charity. I doubt I can say the same about you or other upper class hating liberals.
My net was something like just under 20k before school costs and medical. 10 per cent is a more dire part of my income range because as you can see I am relatively not rich. So instead I donate time and blood, of which I can spare both.
Which charities?
Say what you want about the Wars this country fights but I have the ultimate respect for veterans and would support them before I support other humans. I also love animals more than humans so a large chunk of contributions goes to spca. And yea good organizations Janus. Gotta research to make sure your money is being given out appropriately.

I was going to give a decent amount of my money, a hefty lump, to a local hospital of mine, but I didn't because of spite.And because I sued them for the money in the first place. Mwuahaha., Not getting it back now.

Sounds legit! 👆 😉
And that it before I expand, so consider my contributions to be around 1k a month. It isn't to boast either it's in response about my alleged lack of empathy. And before you say that you can throw money at charities without empathy, no lol. Maybe if I was making a mill and giving 1k monthly I can understand but not 10% of net.
You do realize that, the more money you make (or have already), the less important a percentage of it becomes? That's why Bill Gates can donate a billion per year. If you make $10,000 per month, giving away $1,000 doesn't hurt you as much as it would hurt somebody living off minimum wage to donate 10 percent of their income, right? Not even talking about students, which do probably form the majority of the "liberals" you're addressing here. Which you, well, kind of called out for not donating.
And a special high five for attempting to take the moral high ground, while apparently financing your donations to charity by cheating the state. 😂 😉
And the items in that picture were indeed lower selling items. This pay period of two weeks I'm selling at an average of 90$ per item with a 95k disbursement, so close to 15-17k net this month.
I'm seriously wondering at the price calculation involved there, if you - being a re-seller - can make 10-20 percent net profit with those kind of goods. I would, of course, eliminate your market position and share the money you are making between the customers and myself if I were a producer of the goods you're buying / selling. Especially when talking about a market place like Amazon. Again: Not meant as a condescending comment - if it can be interpreted as such - merely an expression of my genuine astonishment, that this system works. I'm probably more on the conservative side of things when it comes to "making money".
And if you say ME1 only takes 20 hours then I will play it.
I think that is possible, if you skip the "exploration" part (i.e. Mako planet adventures) and the side-missions. But then, you would be missing a lot of the game, as you probably did in ME3 already.
But I have to admit, that I still don't see your point. If it takes 40 hours to complete the game (or even 60 hours), you can still split those to several weeks of playing. Or do you need to play a new game every week?
Oh, really?

Considering I DIDN'T cheat and that the loss was actually implemented by my accountant because me and my business partner officially started in November and I had leftover inventory from the previous few months making it legitimate, coupled with the fact that you're just find something to nitpick, it's a really valiant attempt. Anything else about my money making endeavors?
And yes, I DO realize the more money you make, the less the % are relevant, that's why I gave out a # like "a mill". Taking $1,000 a month for contributions out of $10,000 is still a lot of money for me because I have a wife, hope to have a family, need to save for a house, and love traveling (leisure activities). So yes, it's still a significant amount.
