Good. The second handout JT has said no to in his life. If they want/need security, they can pay for it. They are no different than any other resident.

Megan and Harry - poor little rich kids wah wah wah
- Thread starter timtune
- Start date
Couldn’t give a **** about the royal family. Loads of my fellow countrymen harp on about “yeah but the tourism that they generate”...utter bollocks. People would still come to see the castles/changing of the guard etc. Get rid of the parasites and sell off their assets.
Most of the assets are "theirs" so they will remain disgustingly rich. You could stop the bleeding though. Apparently security is 50M a year and entirely taxpayer funded.
I would contest that all their assets are not actually theirs if you dig back through history far enough. If we are in the era of reparations then the monarchy skimming off the top needs some serious reparation. Crown Jewels..nope. Castles? Nope.
If you look into the Sovereign Grant you see the family gets as much money from taxes as they want each year.
- "We need $32m this year to reno a house"
-"Okiedoke, here's your cheque"
Personally I feel the Royals are irrelevant now and I would like to see them gone in the same way I feel about the Kardashians.

Just gonna provide a counter point even though I'm all for ripping on the rich:
Problems are subjective based on context. We shouldn't undermine others issues just because they are rich. Stress and anxiety hits a meth addict the same way it'll hit us middle class folk if one of us loses our jobs.
....with all that said, I still cant take their stuff seriously so I don't dig into it lol
Edit: sigh, curiosity got the better of me. I asked a few frds for the summary, is this it?

- Royal family is straight up racist
- They would not take Meghan seriously because she's half black
- They made comments about whether or not their kid would inherit anything
- Meghan broke down
- Harry sided with Meghan
- Exiled status ensued

I dunno...a lot of my problems could be easily put aside by saying “ah **** it, I’ll buy another island”.
lol. I can't say my problems would be solved with money; finding a purpose, a place to belong, and self actualization are things money can't buy.
Really sounds like you need sometime on the coach
I'm afraid I don't understand this idiom.
I don't have a clue at all for what you mean still.
He meant couch not coach.... Likely typing with mittens on.
OHHH. Shrink would've made more sense.
Tried multiple already. Waste of time sadly. Most of them told me I don't need them as well lol
I've instead spent a **** ton of free time exploring other ppl's lives and how they found meaning (David Goggins, Jocko Willink, Jordan Peterson, and Damon West come to mind.)
Lol, no i messed up the spelling, just typed out the wrong couch
Ah yes...but if you have money all those things can be where you focus your energies. Not trying to make a living and worrying about whether you'll have a place to live next year, or be able to buy a house, or whatever other issue NORMAL people have.
Sure, the 'royals' have stresses...but let's be serious. They can F off for years without a care in the world to 'find themselves' and still be ok financially.
The casting couch?
