haha, someone flamed another person for suggesting the money might've been better spent as a donation to charity.
"Posted Tue Feb 5, 2008, 1:50 PM — By David
Wow...someone has a lot of cash, and needs to be donating it to charity, not spending it on rediculous "entertainment" systems."
"Posted Wed Feb 6, 2008, 5:05 PM — By Michael
@ David A man builds, a parasite asks 'Where's my share?' Your comments just make you sound bitter that you don't have that kind of money to spend. This is the spirit of capitalism. I applaud Mr Kipnis."
He's right, of course - $6,000,000 is far more appropriately spent watching Ratatouille by yourself in your sterile little hall rather than helping others.

You are all jealus. Let him spend his money on this 'entertainment system'. I'm not provoked by it at all. A lot of millionaires spend shitloads of money on far more idiotic and useless things than this.

It's the symbolism of it, though - I wonder if he watches Iraqi children being taunted while their fathers are being tortured and humiliated on his huge screen ... I'll bet he can really hear the screams well with his hundred speakers.

The final paragraph was mine (the sarcastic one!) - the one up from that was calling the initial poster bitter (and probably a stinking lazy parasitic commie) because he thought six mil' was just a tad decadent. I'm not sure where your confuzzlement lies, otherwise I'd be more useful, soz. :\

Yeah, I got that.. it's just that the "this is the spirit of capitalism" thing seems to me to be irony, especially when answering what the first guy said.

maybe he does donate a lot of money to charity. what he has left he spends on ugly clothes, movie snacks, and a kick ass home theater system.

hmm, I dono, it didn't sound ironic or sarcastic to me: the spirit of capitalism being a MAN who has lots of money and is justified in spending millions on a home theatre, and anyone who dares criticises the moneyed man for any reason is automatically classed a parasite / bitter lazy commie / homosexual retard. . . similar to if anyone whispers anything negative about Judaism or Israel, the Jewish Defence League (or whatever they're called) immediately label them an anti-Semite.

he's not an extravagant millionair, he's an audiophile chasing his dream of the best possible home movie theatre, it's great project
if his passion was helping starving people in africa the world would have been better. if he'd been obliged to give all his money to charity or the state, like communism, the world wouldn't have been better because he wouldn't have been motivated to make money

I wouldn't class him as an audiophile -- $6,000,000 of equipment is not required to optimise the listening / watching experience. He sounds like someone who threw money at a lot of unnecessary extravagances, a whole lot of money--a decadent amount of money on something which is really quite trivial. . . a copy of Ratatouille and a PlayStation3. It's a mockery.

I read something a while back about how the price of a thing makes your expectations about it high, and then something happens that makes you happy when you spend the money. It was some neural/biochemical thing.

The guy's trying to start a business putting together these kind of setups and this is a demo system. True its something that he will enjoy but it is also an investment. The point about donating to charity seems null in my opinion. If you wanted to start a business and someone turned round and said 'That money would be better off going to charity' would you give it away?

I don't think I would start a business which led to a whole group of middle-aged cunts with $6,000,000 of worthless cinematic equipment whilst down the road there were destitute families. In that case, I would probably either change the business to one that was more socially beneficial, or else . . . hmm I've forgotten the "or else" cos I had to change a wet nappy and make a cup of tea *scratches head* Sorry Sam--all I can say is that the "Or else" led to one of the most brilliantly witty OR ELSEs ever!
