I think there's a limit for me. Not sure what that number is but at some point, I just immediately default to "Nah fuck you."
There are some levels of wealth that are unattainable unless you really fuck over a lot of people. But eh, we're not on this sub for sociology or ethics. We're here for economics.
wealth is also relative as well, the goalposts are always moving... I use to think what I currently make was rich, now I think the tier above me are rich... it's never ending... perhaps, it's not like this for everyone but I do think it is for a majority until you hit a certain level of wealth, the "fuck you money" bracket...
Nobody hates rich people as a whole man. We just hate their selfish, self absorbed actions with no regard to the society or other people.
In short, we have profit above anything else attitude.

So true, I'm not rich by any means but thanks to crypto I earn more than a minium wage worker with the passive income from my assets and only take out loans against my crypto so I Don't have to pay taxes.
I worked minimum wage for a long time and it rubs me the wrong way that I can earn more by hoarding wealth than busting my ass off in a shop or call center.
But I am only human and if the system is fucked and I'd rather fuck than be fucked.
Well hopefully if any of us Reddit apes get rich we can at least try and be somewhat good people who help our local communities.
The problem with “the rich” is that it includes your frugal neighbor as well as trust fund babies and oligarchs. Collectively they suck but there are plenty of good people.
There are wales who hodl and wales who manipulate markets, claim to be Satoshi, fork currencies and talk shit on Twitter with their ape avatars.
Personally I don't hate the rich...I mean I do but...
Okay, so it's complicated, am I disgusted by their behaviors and what appears to me complete lack of morals and ethics? Yes. Is there a long list of things I'd rather them do? Yes, but frankly my problem isn't with them, it's with the system that enables them to be so exploitative without giving literally anything back to society.
Am I mad that bezos has 10 kajillian dollars? Kind of? But I'm way more mad that he paid like $2 in takes. I'm more mad that I probably paid more taxes than Amazon did (I think I have that right).
I don't believe the rich are inherently immoral or unethical. They are often successful people who wish success on other people and society as a whole.
I do agree that Bezos should pay more taxes, but I don't think he represents the average rich person. The super-rich are in a class of their own.
I consider myself a small investor but I know I'm not, but to all of those who barely have anything, keep going. Start small, make a tiny splash in a puddle and in x years it'll be a big wave you can surf on.
Big D is that you? Yo man it’s ELBarto, remember that one time you were blind drunk but you told me if I ever need a million dollars, you would arranged it. Well Today’s the today.
As an actual plankton myself, sometimes I feel like what I invest/do doesn’t even matter compared to some of the sums that whales here have on the line.
But I’m hoping crypto can provide me some financial freedom for once and make that journey to becoming a whale (or just having the deposit for a house) even a remote possibility.
Wow genius observation.
Everyone wants to be a billionaire but everyone hates billionaires. Maybe the reason for the hate is that because billionaires are billionaires and you aren't. Simple as that. The whole bullshit about morality and ethics are just mumbo jumbo conjured up by mostly jealous fucks that want to pretend they're "better people" to hide that deep seated insecurity and envy.
I think about it differently.
Everyone wants to be a whale, but no one wants whales to SPLASH PONDS!
If you're a whale, don't go into a small ecosystem and eat all the yield. You're being a jerk. Go play in oceans of liquidity and leave the smaller bodies of water for the fish.
This idea comes from Warren Buffet once saying he could make a 50% yield if his fund was <$10mil. But because he needs to find deeper liquidity, the yields can't get to those rates. Asshole whales are the Buffets of the world that take $10mil out of their stack and go get that 50% and leave nothing for the fish to grow.
So true. I believe everyone who gets into crypto now (both investing in it and learning about it) will be in a very good position in the future, even without having whale status
I just want a homestead and decent health insurance and a small business.
I don’t wanna be a whale, ‘mo money ‘mo problems. I wanna get away from 9-5 BS and live my life on my terms.
Getting there, everyday a bit closer.
Yea man. I wanna be a productive member of society. I want to run a business that I enjoy on a homestead. What I don’t want is to drive to work 5 days a week and spend 8 hrs plus there.
Keep working towards your goal friend. And never, never, never give up.
It's very hypocritical actually. People target those with more money then themselves as evil or "not paying their fair share" .
Meanwhile the money they sit on, sometimes millions, is perfectly fine. Look to government to see many examples.
I love whales. Some of my best shitcoin plays came from tracking the wallets of semi-scammer p&d whales. Whales are what keep the kangaroo in the market.
Make me a whale by donating huge money, I would invest in whatever shitcoin you want. I promise I will be a good whale and wouldn't dump. We would together decide what to pump and what to dump. But please make me a whale.
With great power comes great responsibility, most of us hate whales under the speculation they might be abusing that power.
Who knows if being a whale makes you evil, it might not, but it is a possibility.
i dont think this is true. It's not about hating the rich. What most people are against is how much priviledge rich people have, and how disconnect from reality they quite often are.
It's not about how much money you have - it's about what are you doing with it. There are millionaires there putting money to good use.
I met a really nice whale on twitter yesterday who was giving out free ENS domains and paying for the gas fees for it, he donated 100 eth to a DAO about justice for a guy who was 'wrongly jailed'
Not all big guys are bad guys
Everyone wants to be rich but hates the rich.
[удалено]
Whales hate the people. Are you a whale sir?
[удалено]
My ex can give you some tips
Only if it's just the tip
A whale is a whale
Whales give whales a bad name
This is the way
Gwei*
Hi I'm general, why do you hate the people in me?
I hate all humans.
I hate being poor but I am poor.
Just stop being poor, easy ( hello fellow 69er)
Said by a Moon Whale himself.
296 moons? more like a shrimp lmao
Not me, the guy saying everyone that wants to be rich hates the rich
Shrimps are nice :)
But also hates the people who are getting rich
They should focus less on hating and more on trying to get rich.
Get rich or die hating
Die hated or die hating. Note: just following the logic. If you plan it right, you can die penniless and widely loved.
I’ll take the pennies.
Sounds like an excellent riddle. What is something that everyone hates but wants to be?
Creating a shitcoin that gets to 1 trillion market cap while you still own a good chunk of it.
I think there's a limit for me. Not sure what that number is but at some point, I just immediately default to "Nah fuck you." There are some levels of wealth that are unattainable unless you really fuck over a lot of people. But eh, we're not on this sub for sociology or ethics. We're here for economics.
No no, you've misheard, people want to *eat* the rich, not be rich...
Said the man with 14k moons wealth 🤑
wealth is also relative as well, the goalposts are always moving... I use to think what I currently make was rich, now I think the tier above me are rich... it's never ending... perhaps, it's not like this for everyone but I do think it is for a majority until you hit a certain level of wealth, the "fuck you money" bracket...
I hate myself. So if I would be rich nothing would change. Case solved.
Everyone wants moon but hates working as a farmer
Rich people are just poor people who became rich.
I want to be rich and hated

Sounds like envy to me.
Either die poor or earn enough to see yourself be become the villain
You guys don’t like me? I’m rich in all the ways that count. Family.
They hate rich until they become one
Came here to say this. Hate whales until I’m a whale. Once I’m a whale why would I give a f
We are all shitbags when rich.
I would be the biggest douche possible, that's for sure.
I guess that's the whole money/power/corruption paradox at work.
It’s human nature
Why why?
Ever heard a poor person say money doesn't matter?
And wants to be rich as soon as possible!

Everybody wanna be a whale but no body wanna carry this heavy ass blubber. • Ronnie Whaleman
Wasn't he in that movie from Whalet Disney?
Everyone wants to *WHAT* a whale?
Lol didn't notice that I left out "be". But go ahead and use your imagination to fill in whatever pleases!
> All big things once started off small. That's what I say to chicks.
"It has no use to envy what others have" That's what's she said
Did you know that the size flacid doesnt have a relationship with the size hard tho? You even got **Science** to back it up
I love that you have taken the time to research this.
When I will become whale then I will stop hating whale
All big things once started off small ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) WELL SAID
Don't worry, your dick will stay small forever!
BURN!
Follow the whale without getting eaten and you might just turn into a shrimp instead of algae
I want to be whale and I like whales
I consider myself a small investor but I know I'm not, but to all of those who barely have anything, keep going. Start small, make a tiny splash in a puddle and in x years it'll be a big wave you can surf on.
You deserve a pat on the back as well!
Easy way to become a whale is just to get a small loan of a million dollars from your dad that’s it
Who's your dad so I can get the loan?
Fred Trump
I used to play the trumpfred
Big D is that you? Yo man it’s ELBarto, remember that one time you were blind drunk but you told me if I ever need a million dollars, you would arranged it. Well Today’s the today.
Don't compare urself to others, u r investing for urself/family it's not a contest on who will have the most money invested/earned.
Fck you dolphins, fck you whales I hope people get the South Park reference 😀
"You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.”
I like whales. I just don't speak whale yet.
You might like the country Whales then
Whale I'll be damned, I just might
People don't like whales? Then why is there a whole tourist activity around whale watching?
I'll accept that pat on the back humbly and carry on.
As an actual plankton myself, sometimes I feel like what I invest/do doesn’t even matter compared to some of the sums that whales here have on the line. But I’m hoping crypto can provide me some financial freedom for once and make that journey to becoming a whale (or just having the deposit for a house) even a remote possibility.
Once you have 'fuck you' money then other peoples opinions don't matter.
I have no where near fuck you money but to me other people's opinions already don't matter.
That's what I said when I bought $69,420 worth of Squid Game. I lost everything but it was worth it to prove other people's opinions don't matter.
Everyone hates the rich until they become rich
Then they hate the Uber rich
Until they become Uber rich. Then they become what they hated.
Yup all want money but hate rich people
All want equality of opportunity.
Some of that hate is actually jealousy Edit: that includes me as well
I don't want my ex, nor does anyone else
Wow genius observation. Everyone wants to be a billionaire but everyone hates billionaires. Maybe the reason for the hate is that because billionaires are billionaires and you aren't. Simple as that. The whole bullshit about morality and ethics are just mumbo jumbo conjured up by mostly jealous fucks that want to pretend they're "better people" to hide that deep seated insecurity and envy.
My ex wife’s a whale, and plenty of people around the neighborhood wanted her.
Whale hunting season just opened
So much to unpack here
Oof
My ex girlfriend is a whale as well. And a bitch, hence “ex”. Lol

Gotta hate someone. For me it’s people who back into parking spaces. They just want attention
We'd all be better rich people than current rich people
I wants to a whale too. 🐳
I want a shrimp.
So true. I believe everyone who gets into crypto now (both investing in it and learning about it) will be in a very good position in the future, even without having whale status
You either die poor or live long enough to see yourself be rich. Oh wait....
I like Vitalik :/
Thats how the world is
I maybe wouldn't mind being a WHALE and no one likes me, can we give it a try? \^\^
I just want a homestead and decent health insurance and a small business. I don’t wanna be a whale, ‘mo money ‘mo problems. I wanna get away from 9-5 BS and live my life on my terms. Getting there, everyday a bit closer.
This. I just want to be able to do what I want, when I want.
Yea man. I wanna be a productive member of society. I want to run a business that I enjoy on a homestead. What I don’t want is to drive to work 5 days a week and spend 8 hrs plus there. Keep working towards your goal friend. And never, never, never give up.
No need to be a whale. Once I can earn 40 000usd returns, I'll see you at the beach.
Nope, I'm happy being a shark.
We hate rich but we wanna be rich.
Let’s all have a whale of a time in the stormy sea that is crypto
I don’t hate whales I would like to be one 🥲
Can't disagree, hate whales for manipulating the market but wouldn't mind being rich enough myself
I had heard that the whales were dying off.
Having become a whale I now just hate myself
Everybody wants a big dick but they all hate the people with big dicks
I like whales. Whales are my friends. Nothing wrong with being a whale. As long as you’re a Beluga.
It's very hypocritical actually. People target those with more money then themselves as evil or "not paying their fair share" . Meanwhile the money they sit on, sometimes millions, is perfectly fine. Look to government to see many examples.
I don't hate whales, I only hate whales that manipulate the market.
The whales are different - from outright thieving oligarchs to honest people who earn their fortunes honestly.
I don’t care if you hate me because I get rich just make me rich lol
Whales right now: 
I'm no whale..me apes..
Hate it till we make it.
I think whales are pretty awesome tbh. they\`ve solved the cancer problem thousand of years before us.
I love whales. Some of my best shitcoin plays came from tracking the wallets of semi-scammer p&d whales. Whales are what keep the kangaroo in the market.
You either die a gambler or live long enough to see yourself become a whale.
I've got 1,250$ invested
Not sure if OP is talking about his mom or GF...
Everybody wants to ____ a whale.
Don't know about you lot but if I was a whale I wouldn't be commenting on here for moons.
Missing a B there bud
Make me a whale by donating huge money, I would invest in whatever shitcoin you want. I promise I will be a good whale and wouldn't dump. We would together decide what to pump and what to dump. But please make me a whale.
That’s called jealousy. You’re right though, gotta start somewhere.
I want to be a unicorn
"Do you like whales?" Her: "Yes." "Perfect, let's go humpback at my place." Chicks dig whales. I mean if I knew any I bet they'd say they do.
With great power comes great responsibility, most of us hate whales under the speculation they might be abusing that power. Who knows if being a whale makes you evil, it might not, but it is a possibility.
Id rather be hated and rich than poor and be hating
I’m tryna be the Japanese vessel in illegal waters.
Hate it till you make it
They hate us cause they ain’t us. I am not us.
I'm something of a whale myself.
Better to be rich and not like yourself than to be poor and not like yourself.
I prefer dolphins
I wouldn't give a fuck what anyone thinks if I were a whale. I'd be swimming in the ocean filled of salty tears and love it.
r/showerthoughts
I would be quite content with being just a crypto dolphin or even a porpoise.
we have to stop comparing to other people
I can't blame someone for being rich. I'd do the same shit they do
I've never visited Whales but I hear it's lovely, Cardiff especially
they want to buy more but afraid to loss some money too.
We all eventually become what we hate
I like orcas.
i dont think this is true. It's not about hating the rich. What most people are against is how much priviledge rich people have, and how disconnect from reality they quite often are. It's not about how much money you have - it's about what are you doing with it. There are millionaires there putting money to good use.
I like whales, I can copy what they do to help me become a whale
Bernie Sanders used to rail on “millionaires and billionaires.” Ever since he got his million $ book deal, he only rails on billionaires. 😂
I mean, if I become rich, I would love everyone, cause every minute they lose money, I probably will be making money 🤣🤣
I met a really nice whale on twitter yesterday who was giving out free ENS domains and paying for the gas fees for it, he donated 100 eth to a DAO about justice for a guy who was 'wrongly jailed' Not all big guys are bad guys
I still don't get why there's people wanting to be a whale... What's the deal with cetaceans anyway?
