Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Worse, he thinks he was just unlucky that he happened to get sick, and thinks his "success" proves he was right all along. Meanwhile, his "success" was entirely built on leeching off other people and abusing charity.
The luck bit really clashes with the survivorship bias.
I mean, he's lucky he could bail on poverty. His dad got sick, and he didn't have to stop working to care for his dad. He was seeing a doctor regularly to monitor his health, and could call it when his health started to really suffer, after just 10 months.
How was he paying for the damn doctors during his experiment
Obviously he wasn't going to stop paying for health insurance, only a fool would do that
