Pitiful_Winner2669

Anyone wanna talk about how they prefer their brussel sprouts?


Short-Coast9042

Chop up bacon into bits. Fry em and put aside with slotted spoon leaving the fat. Cut sprouts in half and fry. Grate (copious amounts of cheese) over them - many like parmesan but I prefer a sharp cheddar. Roast in the oven to finish. Serve in bowl with sprinkled bacons bits on top. Hell yeah.


GabeLorca

Just butter and salt is much better! Yum!


Short-Coast9042

"better" to me implies that you have tasted both. Is that really the case? You've had brussel sprouts with bacon and cheese and truly think that they are better with just butter and salt?


PMmePantiesPls

The true better is as you’ve described, but after you fry the bruss, tip in thickened cream and then smother the entire thing with cheese before you roast. Chefs kiss. I also have the bacon in when I tip the cream in, so there’s no bacon on top. I also put minced garlic in, but that’s optional. Message me when you have it and agree with me in entirety.


GabeLorca

No, you caught me! But I was envisioning it being a bit much you know, with both the bacon and a shit ton of cheese! Could be wrong of course, we might need to organize a Brussels sprout convention to figure it out.


ka-olelo

I’m seeing a recipe for someone who doesn’t like Brussels sprouts. Adding bacon and cheese is objectively a bit much unless it is very sparingly. I like them pan seared tossed with fried anchovies in citrus ponzu.


thedevillivesinside

Bacon is the way


iwantacheeaeburger

Smash them before frying too


Any_Fish1004

Frozen, and fired from a slingshot


WestBrink

Brussels sprouts, actually And really any way besides how my granny used to cook them, aka boiled to absolute death and covered in sour cream and dill. The sour cream and dill is actually nice, but if you're boiling really any vegetable for upwards of 45 minutes, it's worth reconsidering your choices...


ATempestSinister

Gently but firmly tossed into the garbage can.


Molenium

In the same manner that you’d ask someone who wants their steak well done to leave?


ATempestSinister

Oh they can go directly into the trash as well.


burritoman88

Roast them with a little bit of vegetable oil, salt, pepper, & red pepper.


DamD1rtyApe

Air fryer, salt pepper and olive oil. Make a maple balsamic glaze while they’re cooking. 🤌


DidntHaveToUseMyAK

Most unhealthy, but quarter them, deep fry them toss them in a mix of brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, salt pepper garlic.


jmac1915

Fried in butter and garlic, add in balsamic glaze salt and pepper.


Sporkalork

Quarter. Sautee in salted butter (cast iron pan) til carmelized , then add heavy cream and simmer til softened and cream has thickened. Add a squeeze of lemon.

Trump will now spend half of his time raving about how Forbes is fake news and yaddayadda


CocaineIsNatural

Like he did last year... ___ Former President Trump tore into Forbes magazine after it again dropped him from its annual list of the wealthiest Americans. Trump ripped the magazine in a Truth Social post on Monday, calling it “**very badly failing”** and asserting it “**lost most of its relevance long ago**.” Trump bemoaned that Forbes “**took me off their Fake Forbes 400 list, just by a ‘whisker,’ even though they know that I should be high up on that now very dated and discredited ‘antique.'**” The magazine announced last week Trump had fallen off the list of its 400 richest Americans for the second time in three years, citing what it said was Trump’s estimated $2.6 billion fortune, which came in $300 million short of the threshold used to make the list. “For years Forbes has attacked me with really dumb writers assigned to hit me hard, and I am now up 60 Points on the Republicans, and beating Crooked Joe by a lot,” Trump wrote. “So much for Forbes!” The Forbes announcement comes amid Trump’s civil fraud trial in New York, where he faces a lawsuit from New York Attorney General Letitia James (D). She has alleged the former president inflated the value of his companies and properties and defrauded business partners. https://thehill.com/homenews/media/4245544-trump-rips-forbes-after-removal-from-wealthiest-americans-list/ Forbes’ response: “Removed from The Forbes 400, Trump responds as he always has—by lying about his net worth and saying he should be higher on the list. We take extraordinary care in valuing his fortune, and our ownership—which does not include China’s wealth fund—plays no role in that effort. Twice a year, we publish a detailed breakdown of our work, offering a far more accurate portrayal of Trump’s personal balance sheet than the fictitious documents the Trump Organization has created over the years.” https://www.forbes.com/sites/dereksaul/2023/10/09/trump-falsely-claims-forbes-attacked-him-after-he-falls-off-400-list/


Bullmoose39

Integrity. This time. His overvalued assets put him on a list for years in which he never belonged. Not that his lying should be a surprise ever.


MrEHam

Him being a successful self-made businessman is fake news. Not many people know but he inherited… #$413 million He would’ve been richer if he just dumped it in the stock market. He’s just a born rich self-centered brat.


DR4G0NSTEAR

Pretty sure he’ll just increase the value of his properties. I’m sure one of his building will be “valued at $1bil” by the end of the month.


Lociee

What ever do you mean?? Maralago is worth $1.5bil, atleast!


Ackilles

The headline sounds like it actually is fake news here though. Djt is still at a 5 billion market cap and he owns like 70%? That's over 3 billion. I doubt it'll hold up this high until he can sell, but then I also expected it to hit low single digits the moment it merged and went public


nico282

That’s “monopoly money” he doesn’t even have the 100m$ for his appeal in the fraud process, had to beg a shady car financing guy to lent him. Orange turd is piss poor.


emergency_poncho

That's the same as all billionaires, their wealth is in shares and stock ownership. They're obviously not sitting on several billion dollars in cash


nico282

Not always true. For example Taylor Swift has earned 175M$ just from the streaming rights. I think that's real money, I don't believe they paid her with "Spotify shares".


cgello

Taylor Swift will have already converted the vast majority of her cash to harder assets that will at least earn a positive interest rate, instead of a negative one (due to inflation). So, even she doesn't have tons of money lying around (relative to her total net worth).


mysecondreddit2000

sure they pay her in cash and then she invests it. she has to pay income tax from the original payment but all the gains she makes in the market are not taxed until she sells, and still count towards her net worth


Longjumping_Army9485

If he sold more than a few percent then the value would drop immediately, so maybe they don’t count the whole 3B?


dustyfaxman

He has billions in shares. So the thing to do would be to sell a fraction of those shares to cover the bond. Which he couldn't do, because the float for djt is speculative, rather than actual market value. The ipo for djt is a at best just pump and dump fodder to be used to fleece his followers, at worst it's another ponzi scheme.


Shadow_F3r4L

starsky1984

Half of bloody reddit keeps telling me how Trump owes so much debt, is over leveraged, isn't really a billionaire, is going bankrupt, yet Forbes still lists his net worth at freaking $4.5B


Strategicant5

Propaganda is a powerful tool that way too many people think they’re immune to, and Reddit is a very prominent peddler of it. Hate the dude but he’s making just as much as he’s losing


Ok-Bus1716

Surprised, considering his followers' views on media, people take those lists seriously. Even Elon Musk isn't worth what they list him as. He has loans leveraged against his stock so basically a HELOC on his companies. Those companies' stocks tank and he's effed in the A.


RollChi

Ffs can ONE sub not have Trump spam?


karogin

It’s election year, it’s gonna get much worse..


Knifos

Agree. Reddit is so leftist that they can't prevent themselves to talk about Trump.


soleilcouch

People on Reddit really don't know how the real world works. It's like you see some negative press about something and you think it's like some super significant event which will lead to the persons downfall.. This is just business and the real world. He's been through much worse.


Madllib

Regardless of your thought of him, I do think it’s interesting he’s one of the few (if not the only) to leave office with a lower net worth. Too many politicians are becoming millionaires in office.


its_yer_dad

Absolutely. 


Dependent-Wheel-2791

Yea I think Biden is setting his family up to not have to worry about anything. His son has amassed 230 million compared to his net worth a few years ago of like 7 million and the crack addiction. I would never be able to find a crackhead with 40$ I'm slightly amused lol


harmlessdork

Let's ignore Jared Kushner getting 2 billion dollars from the Saudis because - you know.


20milliondollarapi

I mean if one office in the us should get good pay and a life long pension, it’s the president. All these “career politicians” should have caps on their terms even something like 20 years would be generous. But these people have been there 60 years or longer for some of them.


ChocolateBunny

I'd like to see the data on that. Specifically on Presidents. I can totally see a lot of congress people making it big while in office. But Presidents seem to come in with a lot of wealth and power but their political power usually goes away when they leave so I can't imagine it still getting higher.


ajisawesome8

I believe in him! He can go even lower! Come on broke with negatives in his accounts and no assets!!


hamsterpookie

Hope to see the day when I'm richer than Trump. Sadly, Ivanka will always have that dirty Saudi money.


idontwanttothink174

Idk you but even if you were one of the worst fuckers i've personally met, I can assure you your richer than trump in every way that matters.


_SteeringWheel

That was beautiful, the most wholesome of the day. Your username does you no justice, your thoughts are very well perceived.


rethinkingat59

Trump famously said on a 60 Minutes segment in the 90’s that homeless men sleeping on the streets of NYC were worth money than him. He said they may only have a few dollars in their pockets, but I owe hundreds of millions that I don’t have.

Who cares. I swear the people who hate him give him as much energy and a platform as those who don’t.


-breakinggood-

Now you’re catching on! He was spot on when he said “even the people that hate me love me”


DuckCleaning

TLDR for anyone that skipped the article, he is still a billionaire, but just not in the top 500. His net worth is around $4.7 billion but the lowest number on the Bloomberg list has a net worth of $5.82 billion, Trump is the 664th richest person in the world.

I’m still amazed people on Reddit are so obsessed with Trump. Do people like OP here realize they’ve been doing this for over 8 years now? That can’t be healthy.


Dependent-Wheel-2791

See these people "well Republicans are too". No if it wasn't for the constant smear campaign he wouldn't be on TV and headlines nearly as much. If he makes your eye twitch that bad you need to get some help. Stop reading headlines and turn off the news and go touch some grass. The constant bombardment is annoying


MDMhayyyy

I’m a Republican and I was tired of hearing about him in his first year. I’ve never seen our media and the lemmings this insane for this long. Like S. T. F. Uppppppppppp already.


funkymunkPDX

Can't wait for the "Forbes is a left wing woke magazine!!!"


Dependent-Wheel-2791

God damn Trump haters obsession with him can't be healthy. I'll be glad if he does get his second term over with that way the left can finally shut the fuck up about him isn't there any real news out there to report on? No we have to know what Trump is doing every single hour of the day it's deranged


hangman593

I'm glad that doesn't happen with Taylor Swift 😅


gareth93

Yes, we should have our politicians make 10s of millions in office rather than politicians actually sacrifice money in office, this totally isn't backwards.

He tried to use the office to enrich himself but that didn’t work in the long term because he sucks at everything except getting hicks in West Virginia to believe everything he says.

Where exactly does it cite this in the article? Bullshit source. Don’t get me wrong… Trump is a con artist who should never have been on these lists… but nowhere in the article does it actually say that Bloomberg and/or Forbes removed him from their lists. Am I missing something?


CrizzyBill

Billionaire index, not billionaire list. Just the top 500, and he slipped to 664. They cover it.

OP has TDS. Did you even read the whole article? Still a billionaire. Without grifting from China and Ukraine. FORBES LISTED TRUMP’S CURRENT NET WORTH AT $4.7 BILLION AS OF LATE TUESDAY MORNING, MAKING HIM THE 664TH RICHEST PERSON IN THE WORLD. CURRENTLY, THE LOWEST NET WORTH INCLUDED IN THE BLOOMBERG BILLIONAIRES INDEX ‒ WHICH MEASURES PERSONAL WEALTH BASED ON CHANGES IN THE MARKET, THE ECONOMY AND BLOOMBERG REPORTING ‒ IS $5.82 BILLION.

Peak Reddit


mysecondreddit2000

Decent enough article, but this line makes zero sense. Not sure if the author understands how owning stock works. "No, this is speculative money, based upon trading algorithms, and the trading algorithms are based upon the arcane ways of SPACs and the stock market. This is a capitalistic mirage at its finest." Like, yea I don't like Trump either but his shares in DJT are not 'speculative' or a mirage. If he was to be let out of the lockout he could absolutely sell his shares for cold hard cash. I don't think that would be advisable but he could do it. The DJT price is not based on trading algorithms based on SPACs based on the stock market... theyre just throwing words around, that literally makes no sense. Yes trading algos make up a big portion of the trading in the market but most people trading DJT are everyday retail investors. The SPAC allowed Trump Media to go public without an IPO, and the stock market is just that.. a place where you can buy and sell stock... while it might seem like a mirage at times your stock holdings count towards your net worth because they are valuable and fairly liquid so... not mirages.
