Don't know what they do for their line of work, but I'm in the wrong one.

It is Singapore. Banking center of Asia. 2nd densest population in the world. Education to boot. Amusingly was a third world country even in the 60's though. Things can change and quickly.

Tax they pay on those cars here can be 3-4x the value of the car. Nuts there are so many.

Is it also like Kuwait with a huge difference between those that have it and those that don't? Do they also finance there for 20 years?

The jitter is because of the strychnine. It keeps you awake, and is a key chemical in most blotters and cubes. Micro dots have no strychnine in it, you can sleep on dots. I love bomb, but it is a frame of mind drug, and I am not sure that I am in the right state of mind anymore, but DMT has my interest piqued. The girl who is hooking me up has a lot of baggage (her son ODed a year ago), but she is able to enjoy it, where bomb was negative for her a few months ago. Her description of it sound awesome. Her whole body disappeared and only her mind was left. Everything was like an Alex Grey painting, and she tried to smoke a bowl. She said her fingers were miles long, but not attached to her body. The bowl liquified and dripped into her mouth from miles away. She couldn't light it because the flame kept dancing into forever, but never to her bowl. The flame sang to her, and told her what the afterlife was. She said everything had so many dimensions that everything became beyond clear. Depths were deeper, widths were wider, heights were taller, and even solid objects displayed every atom they were constructed of. Sounds smelled and had flavors, Flavors smelled and were something she could see... all her senses were shared, and yet separate. She told me the colors and geometric shapes just kept exploding from nothing, and became everything, then stopped existing. It sounds reminiscent of the peyote I took in the desert, but instead of days it was just minutes.

Sounds awesome.

That would drive me fucking nuts.
I should rephrase it was more like I was over flowing with excitement inside, just a sense of pure excitement, like the excitement when you were a kid and your parents said yes to buying a toy.

That's how I can describe it

Somehow I made a green vegetable dish that doesn't taste like wet grass. Probably should go buy a PowerBall ticket now...

I can't find a plan with data for 4 lines that won't cost $300 per month (including the cost of basically financing the phones) or require you to pay $2500 up front for the phones.

It's ridiculous. I can't believe people are actually signing up for these plans. Almost $4k a year for fucking cell phones. Fuck that and fuck the cell carriers.

I just saw a commercial the other day for 4 lines with phones for $160/month or $120/month.
Yeah, and it's a bunch of bullshit.

The only way to get the plan for $160 per month is to pay full retail for the phone (ie $600 for a Samsung or $650 for an iPhone...each), bring your own smartphone (which I don't have) or "finance" the phone over 2yrs at $30 per month per phone (which is an extra $120 per month for 4 phones).

They'll sell you the phone for cheaper (ie $100 for an IPhone), but then your monthly bill is $260 instead of $160 (plus all of their bullshit fees and taxes in either instance).

AT&T? 4 lines for $160, great phones for under $100. Gonna snag and HTC One M8 this weekend.
HTC One M8 is retail $640. So to get the plan for $160 I either have to pay $640 for that phone or pay $32 per month for the phone. For 4 lines that's an extra $128 per month.

So I could pay $2560 up front and get four HTC one's and a monthly bill of $160 ($100 for 10gb shared data + $15 per lone access charge), pay a monthly bill of $268 (not $160) plus taxes/fees and nothing up front, or pay a monthly bill of $260 ($100 for 10gb shared data + 4 line access charge@ $40 per line) plus taxes/fees and $400 up front for 4 HTC One M8's.

Like I said, those ads are bullshit lies unless you already own a smartphone, which I don't. Hell, I have never in my life paid for a phone. I always just went with whatever they were giving away free.

Moto X is great and has constantly has been having sales.

I do expect because of those sorts of offerings that the market on used stuff and new phones should finally drop like computers did years ago

Apple is dead. In Asia it is like one in 100 phones are Iphones. Makes me laugh. Of course here people use 7" tablets as phones sometimes, that is funny to see. Little 5'2" guy with a 7" phone.

Still surprised that we haven't seen laptops and desktops running Android or a beefed up version.
