The lion kingdom inferred from a deleted live stream that Ross Guy turned down an original offer from his Austin billionaire buddy, then accepted a counter offer at a higher price. Lions have heard horror stories about accepting counter offers.
The other thing is that in order to accept the counter offer, has has to move to Austin. The whole thing sounded like a desperate act to escape NY. Austin is definitely not New Hampshire & more like NY nowadays. It was a bummer to stop getting bike ride videos from NY, but the New Hampshire phase was a kind of step up for Ross.
What will be amusing are his dating videos. Austin is a lot more like Calif* in being a boom town full of men seeking instant wealth. The Austin live streams are all men. He's going to have a lot less access to women in Austin than NY, but lions suspect he'll hit it off more in Austin just because it's not NY. Despite what he said, he obviously never had any problem attracting women as a successful businessman, but he was obviously very selective in NY. Lions suspect most of the reason he turned them down was his dislike of NY in general & that will be going away in Austin.
Like Calif*, what few women live in Austin are going to be there to make a lot of money rather than find true love or stick around. There might be a few Texas natives, who are going to be more submissive than the upwardly mobile NY executives. Rossguy obviously wants a submissive woman.
It would have been funny if he bought Sara Dietschy's condo in Austin. Gootube stars got to help gootube stars out.
The lion kingdom burns an average of $3000/month to live in Calif* or $40,000/year if no emergencies come up. It would have to generate at least $80,000/year before taxes to retire, but health insurance would become an expense. Inflation would add a lot to that. It would have to be a very aggressive portfolio with some years experiencing massive losses.
With nationwide rent in the $2000's, the number doesn't change anywhere else. The lion kingdom would have to build a house. That might reduce the burn rate to $1200/month or $15,000/year before taxes. Another $10,000 is lost to health insurance & of course $10,000 goes to taxes. The inflation hit depends on how large the portfolio is & is the largest expense. A $1 million portfolio burns $35,000 on inflation so $70,000/year would be required just to sustain the current lifestyle & have basically what lions had in college, no traveling, no buying anything, no access to women, running as the only form of transportation.
Make no mistake, medicare is not going to start at age 65 for anyone currently under 50. That's going to get pushed back & cut back. It's going to cover a lot less than it already does by then. Rattlesnake bites? Fuggedaboutit. Car accidents? Fuggedaboutit.
The days of living on interest are over. Interest rates might get to the mid 2's at most, but the 800 year historic trend is to 0. There are just too many animals & not enough jobs. Before Elon went off the deep end, he was saying how there were too many animals & not enough jobs. We were going to need universal basic income because the animal jobs were going to be automated out. It wasn't until after banging Grimes that he got caught up in the population collapse bandwagon.
Maybe it was something Grimes told him just so she could be mother to a baby Elon, but it might have also been his experience ramping up the model 3 that turned him towards population decline. There were a lot of problems in automating model 3 production that could only be solved with animals.
His UBI phase was 2017-2019. His population collapse phase has been from 2019 onward. He banged Grimes in the 2018-2020 period. The Model 3 production ramp was 2018-2019.

On the 1 paw, he's learning about population growth, cryptocurrency, stonks, & manufacturing the same way the rest of us do, by making a lot of wrong turns & groping in the dark for what little original information exists. On the other paw, he makes his learning process public & calls his own problem the next existential worldwide crisis. He tends to pick up new subjects years later than the rest of us & at a lower level.
He picked up cryptocurrency years after the rest of us already watched it rise & fall. He picked up social networks years after the rest of us watched myspace collapse. Sometimes taking the 1st baby steps after everyone else already did & with years of additional hindsight allows you to come up with a novel solution, but so does it with everyone else.
The lion kingdom is still on the side of overpopulation & not enough jobs. The experience with model 3 production that made him plea for more workers is not the long term trend. The population collapse play might be to reduce the cost of workers & phase out universal basic income.
Rich neighborhood run plan is taking shape. It's 13.3 miles before reaching Safeway. Then there would be another 2 mile return. It covers most but not all of the biggest houses. There are still some giant houses isolated from the mane road. It's highly dependent on how steep the hills are & how many guards there are.
The only celebrity lions are aware of in there was Jose Canseco 30 years ago. The current roster of celebrities all live closer to the lion kingdom. Stephen Curry, Kristi Yamaguchi, the CEO of Chevron, & some famous coaches live nearby. Who knows how many would recognize a lion. Lions never see armored black SUV's, only Tesla model 3's.
The late 1970's houses apparently haven't aged well. It might be more of a place for generation X to relive the early 80's. The boom cycle moved west.
