The military isn’t a trap because people are naive. It’s a trap because poverty exist and people have families to feed.
The muscle car dealership right outside of basic, that is a trap.
It’s surprisingly affordable with this 84 month loan!
The criminal thing about car loans is they often increase the loan APR as the duration increases, so it’s not just exponentially more expensive, the exponent is larger too!
It looks affordable until you find out your 84 month loan means you pay 25% more for the vehicle.
Also the second criminal thing is the depreciation curve is front loaded, so when you go to sell or upgrade you owe more and your asset is worth less.
Wym 29% is a bad interest rate?
The reputation of car dealerships is wrong. They took care of me. I got one of the highest interest rates they offer. They originally said 14%, but when I asked if there was any way they could make it higher, they increased it. I was expecting like 1%, but those swell guys increased it to 28%. That’s customer service!
It definitely got me because I was naive
“Join the army,” they say. “See the world,” they say…
“I’d rather be sailing!”
Step 1: Join the military
Step 2: Make money by selling military secrets to foreign countries
Step 3: ???
Step 3: All expenses paid trip to Fort Leavenworth
Seeing the news stories about young military staff selling secrets to our adversaries is shocking on how cheap military secrets go for these days. I remember reading a story that China was paying a sailor something like $20k or $40k for highly classified weapon system specifications. I’m stunned that these military folks were selling out their nation for the equivalent of a clapped out Ford Mustang.
You can just make a wrong claim on War Thunder forums and have them for free!
Stole the words right outta my mouth
The Navy is where it’s at!
Insects don’t really do much thinking the same way we do, and you ideally hide the bear trap under brush. As far as rats and mice go they’ve been known to figure it out eventually but it’s the same basic premise as a letter bomb, and humans fall for those.
As a person who grows a few Venus flytraps, the traps exude a sweet nectar along the inner upper edge. Flies another insects are attracted to that, and the color red, eat some nectar, hit the trigger hairs, the leaves snap shut in a few microseconds, and they are trapped. They’re struggles after that are necessary for the leaf to fully close and form the hermetic stomach for digestion.
Right, insects work on a more input/output basis. Make the trap as obvious as you want, the only thing going through their head is the smell of the nectar.
