- [21:23] Ereus yo hiero
- [21:24] Hierophant ay
- [21:24] Hierophant whassup ere
- [21:24] Hierophant thinking of posting my fate quest soon
- [21:26] Ereus cool
- [21:27] Ereus i am tryign to order a 10th anniversery saber on mandarake but it wont accept my card cause 3d security thing so im emailing them to switch my payment method to paypal
- [21:27] Hierophant Ereus, can I ask why you want to purchase merchandise before consuming the source material?
- [21:27] Ereus i finished fate im on ubw
- [21:27] Ereus just started ubw
- [21:28] Ereus also im dubm
- [21:28] Ereus dumb
- [21:28] Hierophant If you think what you're doing is dumb, you could stop doing it.
- [21:29] Hierophant For example, email them saying that never mind, you won't buy the saber after all.
- [21:29] Ereus but i want it and mandarake likes to ban people who cancel orders to many times
- [21:30] Ereus dont put logic into this hiero!
- [21:30] Mishie Yeah Hierophant
- [21:30] Mishie Ereus is just spending his welfare money on dolls
- [21:30] Mishie Like a mature adult
- [21:30] Ereus hey i have saved most of it up
- [21:30] Hierophant Maybe that's a good thing.
- [21:31] Hierophant If you're unable to control your impulses and spend money wisely, then MAndarake banning you is a good idea.
- [21:31] Hierophant It's like they're helping you to save money.
- [21:31] Mishie Makes sense Ereus
- [21:31] Mishie It's not like you'll ever want to move out
- [21:31] Mishie Or buy a car
- [21:31] Mishie Or have to pay your own bills
- [21:31] Hierophant I mean, it's your money and you can spend it how you want, but as a friend I'll tell you that this is not a good idea.
- [21:31] Ereus i am saving up for a IT course
- [21:31] Mishie Oh
- [21:31] Hierophant Do you really want to compromise that IT course because of a Saber figurine?
- [21:31] Mishie So you're buying Saber stuff
- [21:32] Hierophant That you broke??
- [21:32] Mishie Instead of getting an education
- [21:32] Ereus i just need 200 dollars, which ill have in a weeks time
- [21:32] Ereus and the course isnt gonna start till like semester 2
- [21:34] Ereus which is like 3 months
- [21:35] Ereus so thats $2448 dollars till than and the course costs like $900 for a pensioner
- [21:35] Hierophant I'm concerned you're going to be poor because you have bad financial management, and you'll end up broke with a bunch of useless merchandise
- [21:35] Hierophant For a visual novel you haven't even read!!
- [21:39] Ereus here what i want to do, get some basic IT skills for stuff like administration and stuff, do something like 'learn japanese in japan' than get a job at a japanese branch of a company or something is what my life plan so far is
- [21:39] Hierophant That's a good plan.
- [21:40] Hierophant Buying Saber figurines will delay the plan.
- [21:40] Ereus yeah im gonna stop after this one for a while at least
- [21:40] Ereus a month or something
- [21:40] Hierophant Try a year.
- [21:41] Hierophant A figurine a month for a student who's saving up for a course is _way too much_.
- [21:41] Ereus i nearly have all the money for said course though
- [21:41] Ereus i just need 200 more and ill get 400 next week
- [21:42] Hierophant How much is the Saber figurine?
- [21:43] Ereus technically i just need like 108 dollars but 100 dollars it the non accessible money
- [21:43] Ereus 6500 yen + shipping so ill have 600 and something in accessible money
- [21:43] Ereus next week ill have 1k in accessible money if i buy said fig
- [21:44] Hierophant How much money do you have, and how much money will you have next week?
- [21:44] Ereus 700 and like 20 dollars at the moment and ill have 1100 in full money by next week if i dont buy iy
- [21:44] Ereus it
- [21:45] Ereus so 1k next week
- [21:45] Hierophant Okay. So 108/1100 x 100
- [21:45] Hierophant 9.181
- [21:45] Hierophant You are spending nearly 10% of your _entire bank account_ to buy a single figurine that you'll likely break.
- [21:45] Hierophant Do you understand how insane this is?
- [21:46] Ereus nah this isnt a model kit
- [21:46] Ereus this is just a display figure
- [21:46] Ereus the other one was a model kit
- [21:46] Hierophant You are missing the point, Ereus.
- [21:46] Ereus look this is gonna be my last fig for quite a while
- [21:47] Hierophant I just checked with my mother - she has 60k saved up in her bank account, for a family of six.
- [21:47] Ereus nice
- [21:47] Hierophant So a single person living alone(ie. you) should have 10k in your bank account by the time you're middle-aged.
- [21:47] Ereus my brother who is 24 who has like 23k saved up
- [21:47] Hierophant That's not total money - that's the shit you should have, at the very minimum, set aside
- [21:48] Hierophant Meaning you can draw on that if you get into a car accident and your insurance company fucks you over or something.
- [21:48] Hierophant What are your living expenses, Ereus?
- [21:48] Ereus nothing still live with my parents
- [21:48] Ereus just turned 18 remember
- [21:48] Hierophant Yeah, but you want to move overseas, right?
- [21:48] Ereus true
- [21:48] Hierophant So you'll need expenses then. How much do you think you'll have to spend?
- [21:50] Hierophant You mentioned going a month before buying another figurine, so I'll assume you order 1 $100 figurine every month.
- [21:50] Hierophant I'm also assuming you got a job as a computer programmer in Japan.
- [21:50] Hierophant http://www.worldsalaries.org/japan.shtml
- [21:51] Hierophant Average salary is $1700 - that's for programmers in general, the average salary of a just out of university twenty something with nothing on his resume is much lower.
- [21:51] Hierophant But let's say you strike the jackpot and someone offers you a $1700(261k yen) a month salary as a programmer.
- [21:52] Hierophant You'd be spending 5.8% of your salary on figurines alone.
- [21:53] Ereus thanks for the cold water
- [21:53] Hierophant Let's say you eat 3 times a day, all at McDonalds, using combo meals. That comes out to 58500 yen a month on food alone.
- [21:53] Hierophant 19802 on basic utilities
- [21:53] Hierophant I'll also give you teleportation, so you won't incur any transportation costs.
- [21:54] Hierophant internet is 4100 yen a month.
- [21:54] Hierophant Rent for a single room apartment in a city: 93,219
- [21:55] Hierophant Let's add 5000 yen in miscellaneous costs, like grabbing a coffee because you're too tired to keep your head up, purchasing stationary, toilet paper and so on.
- [21:55] Ereus am considering some other things hiero
- [21:55] Ereus like y'know other things
- [21:56] Hierophant 176121 yen a month, on expenses, total.
- [21:56] Hierophant That's assuming you're a cheap ass motherfucker who eats at mcdonalds, teleports to work and gets cold water for his showers.
- [21:56] Ereus yeah true
- [21:56] Hierophant And who also happened to get a job that pays a ridiculous amount of money.
- [21:57] Ereus also am considering doing that teaching assistant thing JETS as you just need a degree to do it
- [21:57] Ereus but i get your point
- [21:57] Hierophant With that amount of magical luck, you'll still only have $782 to blow a month, which is much less than you might think.
- [21:57] Hierophant You could easily blow that much just by going to bars every weekend, for example.
- [21:57] Ereus i dont drink
- [21:58] Hierophant You'll most likely have less than $200 in reality.
- [21:58] Ereus i hate alchohal
- [21:58] Ereus now im reminded why the suicide rate in japan is so high
- [21:58] Hierophant Meaning: Contessa decides to help you out, and you'll still be spending 13% of your money a month of figurines.
- [21:58] Hierophant That's assuming you never save for the future, at all. Ever.
- [21:59] Hierophant That's with ridiculous luck, and assuming you don't buy a car, rent, and leave like a cheap asshole who eats junk food.
- [21:59] Hierophant In conclusion: you have very little money and the life plan you outlined to me will not improve this situation. If times are tight, do not spend money on overpriced, uncessary junk.
- [21:59] Hierophant Now go and cancel your order.
- [22:00] Ereus dont want 2 get banned mate
- [22:00] Ereus also your assuming i spend things on ANYTHING else
- [22:00] Ereus i dont
- [22:01] Hierophant Really? What if you have to go to the hospital?
- [22:01] Ereus i dont live in america do
- [22:01] Ereus we have medicare
- [22:01] Hierophant I thought you wanted to go to Japan?
- [22:01] Ereus oh yeah
- [22:01] Ereus also as if 60 dollars will help
- [22:02] Mishie [21:44] Ereus 700 and like 20 dollars at the moment and ill have 1100 in full money by next week if i dont buy iy
- [22:02] Hierophant So, Ereus, do you want to get banned from Mandarake or whatever, or do you want to continue to fritter your money away and most likely eventually go broke?
- [22:02] Mishie are you seriously about to spend
- [22:02] Mishie $700
- [22:02] Ereus no
- [22:02] Mishie on a saber doll
- [22:02] Mishie jesus
- [22:02] Hierophant I've given the numbers to you, dude.
- [22:02] Ereus i was saying i HAD $700 dollars at the moment
- [22:02] Hierophant Ereus, I've given the numbers to you. BEST CASE scenario, you're spending thirteen fucking percent of your shit on Saber dolls EVERY MONTH.
- [22:02] Ereus i wont but dolls every month
- [22:02] Hierophant You need to stop this shit right now. Go and cancel your order.
- [22:02] Ereus im gonna stop
- [22:02] Hierophant Then go and cancel your order!!
- [22:04] Ereus fine
- [22:04] Hierophant I'm not going to ask you to take a screenshot of you cancelling it, but promise me you aren't going to do this shit any more.
- [22:05] Ereus can i buy cheap things?
- [22:05] Ereus like 10 dollar things?
- [22:06] Hierophant If it's within the budget, sure.
- [22:06] Hierophant How much of your budget have you allocated to entertainment?
- [22:06] Ereus $100 a month
- [22:06] Hierophant That's too much.
- [22:06] Mishie What
- [22:06] Hierophant You have 1100 total, including savings. $100 a month on entertainment is excessive.
- [22:07] Hierophant $100 a month when you're a working adult with a comfortable situation is reasonable.
- [22:07] Hierophant You're a jobless guy who lives with his parents.
- [22:07] Ereus there i sent them a mail to cancel my order good enough?
- [22:07] Mishie Let me put it this way
- [22:07] Ereus be blunt and im gonna ignore you
- [22:07] Mishie If you spend more money on entertainment than bills
- [22:07] Mishie you have problems
- [22:07] Hierophant Think about it this way - if you don't spend any money(or spend very little) on Fate now, then you can focus on getting a comfortable situation. Once you're in that situation and have a good nest egg built up, you can buy all the Fate shit you want
- [22:08] Hierophant You can buy a 10 foot tall Saber inflatable statue if you want, since you're _able to spend that much shit on something you like_.
- [22:08] Hierophant But you aren't able, you aren't in the correct situation.
- [22:09] Hierophant Ereus, do you know anyone who's good with finance stuff? Like an accountant friend or something?
- [22:10] -->| VereorNox ([email protected]) has joined #anime
- [22:10] Ereus there mailed them to cancel my order happy?
- [22:10] Hierophant Yeah, that's better.
