Thanks!

So after reading a bit does this mean that houses will just be for the retired people in a few years?

"Access Denied"

anyone have a TLDR? I guess I pissed off cnbc somehow.

Or not having any but fix your own shit. I like the idea of smaller houses and yards but not if that comes with shared maintenance fees.

The costs for some of these things is silly and since most people don't volunteer to be on those boards they don't even get to see how their fees are spent.

Condo/HOA/Strata fees are a big way people are kept out of owning their own place. Its crazy that almost every place even remotely affordable is part of one.

And in the past I would ask "Toronto or Vancouver?" But I know that that could be in any city these days.

It was Ireland, but the same rules apply for the EU as a whole I am to understand.

Brake clean is handy for that. (if you don't like the smell)

That is great but you can't move the shares to another dead person (in the show both he and his parents are assumed dead for years) so we are meant to think that they where held in trust, for who? Also while yes the board can force out a chair, but in the case of owning a controlling majority of the business (as stated) this would be pointless and silly, like in my Musk example the entire board would be sent packing. The writing was so poor that it strained my confidence in my own knowledge of basic corporate structure.

Next time try Fishermans friends and straight hot sauce.

He was the Chair, the board "voted" him and 2 others out (somehow). The show states he got the controlling majority of voting shares from his father (also makes little sense since he was assumed dead but that is another gripe). He did not sell any shares as he is later returned to his position, this was just bad writing so they could have him be "poor" for a bit. This was a plot point about how it was his company but then written so poorly they seemed to forget how they set up the fictional company (ie. a private company where the majority of class A shares is held by one person). This would be like if elon musk (Kirkland brand Dr. evil) was booted from space X, everyone would be super confused as to how.

So yeah, this was the end of comic book movies for me, it killed it. They wrote something so bad that the only thing that sticks with me to this day is the hot mess of corporate structure.
