For wagecucks and octomom. Wasn't it like last president selling us the american dream. I can only imagine the current presidents model. Something like booze girls and the old times square with strippers...tbh biden is somewhat refreshing. Only thing relatable is that wagecuck is like the brainwash of making 40000 a year and keeping up with two kids. Probably hoping to make your own tom's of maine one day. Story of tom's of maine is a great business book by the way. Almost as good as making 2million with wade cook in the stock market. Anyways it's time to break that model of 2 kids and open to possibility of having multiple baby mommas lol
