CitizenVectron Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Just now, Chollowa said: Depending on where you live $2M isn't that much money. $2M where I live isn't going to make you rich. Especially if $750k of it is wrapped up in a house that you purchased 30 years ago for $125k. You're also really doing a disservice to professional athletes and others that come from nothing and then make a large amount of money in a short amount of time. $2 million in the bank with the ability to still work and earn more is an amazing amount of money. I am not talking about total wealth (which I'd say could be capped around $10 million), the $2 million was an example of how much a lottery would be capped at. Having said that, I would eliminate lotteries altogether since it's a poor person tax. I am not doing a disservice to athletes at all! Under my system they would be capped like anyone else, with a maximum possible wealth of $10 million, and maximum possible yearly income of somewhere around $500k. There is no value added to society by someone making millions per year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarSolo Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I like Instagram. It’s great for sharing my art work or dumb pictures of my fat beagle. And the text in the comment section is too small to read so I miss out on any flame wars and trolling. Too bad they’re now owned by Facebook.

Slack is pretty widespread and I think Teams is just a part of Office 365 Workplace has been offered as a product for quite some time now. Just think of it as a private FB for enterprise which includes messenger. https://www.facebook.com/workplace I really haven't found a company who actually uses it other then FB themselves.
