Dank, can you give a ballpark figure regarding your parents financial security? Nothing too specific necessary, but are they like middle class American's who own a home and have income, or are they wealthy? If push comes to shove and Dank Bank had some short term liquidity issues, would they be able to back you?
They're upper middle class, there will not be an issue though, my finances have never been better. mlawrence, next time you throw bullshit around, make sure you can back up your statements.

I am. Are you meaning to say why am I not a successful musician in 2 months rather than 4?

I've shown my drivers license to two parties on this forum, other users know my address. I will not reveal Dank Bank trade secrets, at this time.
You SA goons are the only people who view Dank Bank as a ponzi. Please, show me where I lied (consciously lied, not an error in my words that I later corrected).
I'm currently paying 1.5 BTC weekly interest, there's nothing unsustainable about that.
There are no dank trade secrets. You use new money to pay old debts. I've caught you in lies numerous times in this thread already - not going to rehash them - tell some new lies. Most people view your ponzi as such which explains why you are not successful in stealing people's money. Finally, 217% interest a year is unsustainable. If you make MORE than that in your "trade secrets" (profit to buy guitar tuners, etc), why did you need rent money from your parents? You're incorrect, people like you have been calling me a scammer since I joined. Over a year later, I'm still here. What long term offers haven't turned out to be scams? Dank Bank, are there any others? If you can't even show me where I lied, you're clearly lying. Seriously, what idiot would name himself 'dank' and spit all of his spiritual beliefs on the internet, with the intentions of scamming lots of people? Wouldn't I want to blend in, just a little?

But if Dank has no intention of ripping people off and not paying back his depositors, is it really a ponzi?
I mean, yes, when you look at it in a vacuum, someone offering weekly interest at the rates that Dank is, it would appear to be a ponzi. But other than the mathematical signals, it does not appear to be operating like a ponzi in any standard sense.
2) He wants to remain anonymous 3) He won't explain how he makes his money (and he needs handouts despite) 4) The majority of users view it as a ponzi When you combine that with 1) Rates are unsustainable, then all the signs of a ponzi are there. Don't just believe that he has no intentions to rip people off - he is very interested in money and he has been caught in numerous lies already. I've shown my drivers license to two parties on this forum, other users know my address. I will not reveal Dank Bank trade secrets, at this time.

Is this guy for serious? Whoever deposited money in this guy's "bank" (it's probably just used to pay back credit card loans of 'Dank') is out of their minds. I wonder how many days until Dank's "Bank" will close down.
I don't have any credit cards. Huh? Nonsense. A ponzi cannot run if it doesn't grow at a certain pace.
Of course it can. You just do like Dank does and pay out of pocket (i.e. parents) for the interest. I invest deposits to make a profit. If Dank Bank was a ponzi and I was lying about it, it would fail due to bad karma, but it's still here, over three months since fruition.

It doesn't change that it's still from your soul. Your mind creates your reality.

Regardless of the quality of your public school education, the one thing they do teach is how to study and learn; skills you later use if you decide to go to a university. My personal opinion on public schools is biased, because the one I went to used to be one of the top 10 in the country (don't know what it is now). But regardless, the one thing that still keeps me conflicted between free-market anarcho-capitalism and centralized public schooling is fairness from lack of choice. Specifically, while adults can make their own choices (go to university or not) and live with the consequences thereof (be wealthy or poor), children are at the mercy of their parents, and have no say in what education they are able to get. In a system without public schooling, some kids (especially those from poorer, or more lunatic families) will not get any education. And sure, eventually those areas will become too dumb and unproductive, and the free market will punish them severely, but looking at history (and places like Alabama and Mississippi), the lessons learned from that punishment will not be "hey, we need education," but rather "I hate those elitists who think they know everything, and we should go kill them." More importantly, regarding children and lack of choice in education, I think that everyone should at least start on equal footing (or a reasonably similar footing) when they reach a point at which they are capable of making decisions as to whether to f*ck up their lives or not.
Except, they don't teach you how to think. They don't teach you to ask why, they teach you to regurgitate information. They don't teach you freedom of choice, no, and they don't teach you how to be happy. That's all that really matters in life, right? Coming from the opposite end of the spectrum.

i think it is not possible for a lab rat to find out that it is a lab rat (or what that means) But who knows? MATRIX FTW! The real question is, if we're in a simulation, are we simulated, too, or are we "jacked in" somehow? And if we're all simulated "NPCs", Who's the PC? Consciousness.

At the end of the day, change requires people asking themselves what trade-offs and sacrifices they're prepared to make to bring about change. Not the trade-offs and sacrifices they're willing to make when they win the lottery or someone gives them $5 million, but the ones they're willing to make right this moment - regardless of their current circumstances - to make this world a better place. I don't know what answers the current generations of young adults have to that question.
The answer the current generation is likely to be to tell seniors that it's their own damn fault they bought into the social security ponzi scheme and they aren't going to be able to help themselves to the earnings of the younger generation any more. It's going to get messy. WRT solving the problems of the world, it's not possible. Humanity will expand (metaphorically as well as literally) to over-fill any non-problem space you can define the same way a liquid fills a container. Any attempts to fix things from the outside will just lead to problems elsewhere. Aid to many places has had the disastrous effect of enabling cruel, evil regimes to stay in place well past their sell-by date. Aid isn't a solution to a problem, it only prolongs the problems. Humans must accept death as a part of life and not make decisions based off fear of death. When you don't fear death, you can really love to live life, if we spread the knowledge that love is the only solution we need, nothing can stop it. You can't stop an idea, or energy even, especially one as divine, simple, yet powerful as love. Solving humanities problems is about raising our awareness, forming a higher collective understanding. People don't understand helping yourself doesn't help you become happy. You either need to live with your ego, all the time, and find happiness through that (while creating negtivity, greed, war, etc.) OR, you can live with your heart, all you need is more and more love to be happy, and what's wrong with that?

I don't know if this has been covered at all, but could you explain your avatar? It looks like a head trying to eat it's own body, but I'm not sure.
What's the story with that?
It is. It represents ouroboros, man's cycle of eternal life. Peasent, that's what Dank Bank is for.

Pharmaceuticals are nothing more than treatments. I prefer to cure my sickness at the source, my soul.
I assume you won't be using any antibiotics, analgesics or anaesthetics throughout your life then. Good luck with that. Your statement reeks of First World privilege. But hey, lets not worry about trying to get modern medicine to those millions of people in developing countries for whom you feel so much empathy - let's teach them how to mend their souls instead just like countless generations of missionaries have done for hundreds of years. It's just spirituality, whatever you believe is true, I believe sickness is created within the soul. And I believe this because it has played true in my life.
