ABA for my son with Autism as Ford is to busy lining his and his cronies pockets.

3 yrs waiting for the funding we have been authorized for. Never had therapy in his life because of it.

[โ€“] Houseofoliviereu@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I do hope for you that the funding you are waiting for will come shortly, so that your son can get all he needs ๐Ÿคž

[โ€“] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 hours ago

Thank you for your kind words.

Free rent/mortgage if basic necessities are allowed. If not... a Michelin Inspector permit (and associated training courses), I do like some good culinary experiences

Mortgage/rent. Fuckers have ruined the market completely refusing to build.

Why lower profits when you can cartel instead?

Stocks. Doest matter they do, it will be 100% profit when selling.

[โ€“] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

what if you can't sell them? happened to me in a videogame once and I was stuck with thousands upon thousands of fish.

[โ€“] slazer2au@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

As a shareholder I would discuss the options of a share buyback program with the company.

No doubt they would prefer that then dumping a large chunk of them on the open market.

Although that would depend on the shares I got.

[โ€“] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

You got a stock that is low value and hard to sell on a company that doesn't seems stable.

[โ€“] slazer2au@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

Share buyback programs.

Sell the shares back to the company rather then on the open market.

After reading through the other answers, I'm not sure of what to make of the fact that my first thought was coffee.

[โ€“] Combativ@feddit.org 4 points 23 hours ago

My first thought was a local swimming pool. But infinite stocks would also be cool, I guess.

If you spend a lot on coffee, you can save up a lot by the end of the year

The yearly salary of the worlds highest paid person, bi-monthly.

how much gold do you go through?

That wasnโ€™t the question. It was asking what you want for free for a year. And this would be my answer too. Give me a year to gather as much gold as I can.

The heads of my enemies.

[โ€“] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 22 hours ago

KETAM--

No, actually, I'd take music. I don't mean streaming, but buying albums to own. At that point, that's a subscription service gone.

I'd also take ammo for no reason in particular.

(I'm assuming crypto assets for unlimited money is cheating)

[โ€“] AmidFuror@fedia.io 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But, you can get sex for free... Or? At least through the apps. Just need to find someone up to it.

Brilliant idea, I must admit ๐Ÿ˜€

[โ€“] TabbsTheBat@pawb.social 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I honestly rapidly went through a bunch in my head, my first one was real estate, but then I was like.. "no, I'd need to get tenants in that fast cause that gets taxed separately, not just income tax", so then my backups were either gift cards, or lottery tickets :3

I ultimately went with the lottery cause it's less limited than gift cards, and even if they don't pay out all the time they have enough small payouts to get you hookedโ„ข so at no cost even what would be putting me in the negatives irl would be profits in the hypothetical :3

And maybe if I make enough I can just hire people to check the tickets for me in the long(er) run hah
