  • I have seen plenty of comments here trying to make Gabe out to be an ultra bad capitalist evil villain because he owns this company that, as far as I’m aware, pays it’s employees. And most of those arguments are around the fact that it’s a mega yacht company. All sounding like people shouldn’t have unnecessary luxuries. If we went down that route, nobody needs video games, nobody needs music recordings, movies or tv shows, nobody needs clothing that expresses themselves, we all should only have the basic necessary tools of work and the most utilitarian of clothing and homes. Food only to sustain, not enjoy. Tell me I’m wrong.

    I won’t disagree that some people don’t need mega yachts, but I feel that having this company, maybe he could work on building better floating housing systems. Or maybe he is employing people and giving them good paychecks for working on these yachts.


  • I feel like I’m alone with this one, but if you have options, swallow your pride and take them. It’s a paycheck, and can always lead to something better. I took a paycheck job at a retail store and I’m on the management team. Is it something to brag about? God no, it sucks. But my bills are paid and I can advance.
