TFW you spend 3k a month for food delivery instead of just hiring someone

I HATE THE SMOL BEANIFICATION OF THE RICH! I HATE THE SMOL BEANIFICATION OF THE RICH!
You lot are doing better than ever, stop pretending a literal son of a billionaire has any problems whatsoever. Fuck you!
I mean, to be realistic, billionaires have all sorts of problems. But definitely not any "We're so tired from the work we have to do :(" problems
I mean one of the people in the article has a yearly salary of 50000, which is ok but hardly "rich" by American standards.
in mississippi they could live very comfortably in a modest house they own outright. in bay area california they would need two roommates to afford the rent on a shoebox
$700 a week is enough money to hire a full-time assistant, wtf
You could probably get a private chef for that much. Not a celebrity private chef, but just someone who can cook good food and doesn't want to make min wage working in a kitchen. If you do 20 hours a week prepping and cooking for them, that's $35 an hour. You could probably average the hours down once you get to know their likes and dislikes. Not many part-time jobs pay that much. Get two clients and you make $70 an hour for 40 hours. No kitchen manager, no 16 hour shifts back to back, only a few customers.
Then again I think part of it is that they just like pushing a button and receiving food. The prospect of fielding candidates and actually dealing with another human directly is off-putting. Plus these kinds of people tend to pretend that they don't like spending money. They'll pay $700 for frozen Sysco food but scoff at paying even $200 a week for a private chef. They'll try to haggle an employee down to crumbs but have no problem paying a robot.
I guarantee the treatler does the 
face at the mere thought of eating leftovers too
you have to subtract ingredients as well, tbf, so round 20-30 bucks an hour (probably fancy ones as well, because 100 dollar delivery borders on something unusual), still tho you get real plating and auteur stuff in exchange
You could also sign up for one of those meal prep services, yah know the ones all the YouTubers do sponsorships for.
How the fuck do you even eat $100 a day worth of food? Is he throwing out most of it??
100$ of fascist food slave app delivery is enough to make a heap
Why do you keep saying heap
they are heaps excited
How many grains of sand constitutes a heap?

I'm not on bluesky, so I'm not sure if Euergetes is riffing on the line from this pod episode or bluesky posts.
Skimmed that person's recent posts and now I'm curious too.
How many grain posts does one have to make until it's heap posting 
I suspect it's from the latest citations needed episode lol but weird bit
Edit: it is
Uber eats or door dash or whatever can rack that bill up really quickly. You get a $13 burger for $50
Rich people problems. Hit me up when you actually can't afford a couple meals a day. Thats where the rest of us are at or headed to
From her roughly $50,000 annual salary as a data processor in San Diego, Ms. Reedy, 34, spends at least $200 to $300 a week on food delivery
Between raising two young boys and putting in long hours at a marketing job in Atlanta, Kevin Caldwell can almost never find the time to make dinner. So he and his husband spend about $700 a week to order in.
I don't know how rich they are, but this seems like an overspending thing more so than an issue of having too much money.
That house tells me they have at least some money tbh
It could literally be a skill issue. They might be embarrassed to say they don't know how to cook shit. I know adult couples who cannot cook anything between them besides frozen pizza and microwaved instameals.
Ya'll never heard of a microwave? Canned food? Cups of noodles?
why do cappies always select these dweebs to try to make sympathetic?
like look at this nerd and his house, who gives a fuck if he's tired from his bullshit spreadsheeting vibecoding, he's lucky he doesn't lose his credit card by falling for "the wallet inspector"
Oh shit is it wallet inspection season already?
Copper pots are dumb also I would be a personal chef for 700 a week, shit i could do less if you do it under the table
Whats wrong with copper pots?
Stainless steel is better because it's not reactive and more durable, I don't think anything other than stainless steel cookware should even exist honestly, so much material wasted on pots or baking sheets or whatever that people are going to fuck up in some way, which would literally outlast them if they were steel
Copper cookware is a gimmick sold to old people, As Seen On TV shit
You can pry my carbon steel wok out of my cold, dead hands.
you can do whatever you want but I'm not going to fuck around with cookware I can't scrub the shit out of
I've had some stainless steel pots and pans for almost 20 years now. Basically look new still and I suck at taking care of things. I got divorced and all I wanted to keep was these pans and my cat
Imma start this by saying I love my stainless pans almost as much as my cast irons, but copper pans definitely have their place. Pretty much no other material is as heat conducting as copper, not even aluminum, and while it is a potential future cost any and all cooper pans can be retinned and restored to brand new condition, but it takes years of use to get to that level of wear.
I cannot imagine ever caring about the conductivity of a pan more than how durable and easy to clean it is
I want my pan to fry my tofu and charge my phone
Using those chopsticks like a proper white boi too
i can't use them either, so i leave chopstick technique commentary to the experts 
I'm so-so with them, I can maneuver around sushi but finer stuff like rice or noodles is dropped food on my plate.
In the spirit of comrade Stalin I always just use my comically large spoon.
Stalin's plastic color changing cereal spoon.
This is a failure of community as a subsection of society that you can't throw your credit card at a friend, get groceries, and have them throw shit in a crockpot which takes all of 20 minutes and gives you a bunch of meals
That's like 1/4 of a years worth of groceries for me, damn. That's equivalent to my main entree, 3 times a day every day. In one week.
I often consume dried legumes and rice. With my rice cooker and crockpot, it takes about 3 minutes to cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Just cook it, and then set it on the keep hot setting. Put a bit in a lunchbox if I'm not staying home. That way I can have an entree for the whole day, for super cheap, with no real effort, and often at the end of dinner I still have leftovers I put in a jar. The dried food cooked usually costs less than 70 cents per meal, it's extremely cost effective.
The rest of my grocery budget goes to spices, fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, noodles, tofu, and the occasional treat (I consume very little added sugar). I basically only drink water, and I make my own sourdough and Kombucha (which is very cool, and stuff I learned from my mother. Got the mother/bacteria for it from her too. So making that stuff is like she's in the room with me.)
I guess if you're super rich that's not a huge deal, but it's still wild. You could rent a decent place for that kind of money. They could buy a decent $2000 PC each month with the excess money from cooking for themselves.
Bruh you could get a private chef to make you dinner for that
That's $100 a day...I don't know if I have ever spent $100 on a doordash for me and my partner. Typically it's $50-60 if we get thai food or Indian food and that's with a decent tip. For us like a monthly treat, but they are either getting hella expensive doordash, or are getting it twice on some days. Or maybe they tip really well
How the fuck do you even eat $100 a day worth of food? Is he throwing out most of it??
NYT Freedom With a Side of Guilt: How Food Delivery Is Reshaping Mealtime
This was way too difficult to find
Dude you most be DoorDashing all three meals a day if you're hitting $100 a day. Where do you even DoorDash breakfast?
