Part of me thinks he's trying to buy up whatever expensive and "rare" consoomer junk so he can try and sell it off for his income when the patreon money completely dries up. the question being would be how much it's be worth when he would be through with them when the time he attempts to sell comes.
I was going to say he’d be much better off spending it on a diverse stock portfolio then I realised who we were talking about and what an utter retard I was for thinking he’d ever consider that.
This is true of essentially all modern "politics influencers", by the way. Both left (Hasan, Vaush, Destiny) and right (Jordan Peterson, Andrew Tate). They're gurus for people who don't care what a chakra is.
My man couldn't even grab a wrench and watch a 2 minute YouTube video on how to fix a leaky sink.
You're putting way more thought into this than Jim has, but even if that was what he was doing it'd be retarded to roll the dice on something as tumultuous as the vintage toy market when you could instead pay someone to build you a stock portfolio like @FedPostalService suggested, or follow Dear Leader's footsteps and buy a fuckton of silver.
I would like to see you build a pinball table for under two grand. And like a nice one. Those things are expensive for a reason
Ryan Davis already did that a decade ago. Did it better than anyone else could have.
The most expensive part would probably be to get the frame lasered out if you want it in steel (couple hundred probably). Could also make it much cheaper out of plywood or somewhere in between. Stickers, lights, sounds and other electronics should be pretty cheap. A pair of solenoids should work great for the little arms that move the ball. If you want extra authenticity you can add a ready-made coin receptacle. All is available from Ali Express or any other Chinese supplier. I think you could fit into the 500-1k range for a decently large table in terms of materials provided you have the tools (shouldn't require anything fancy). Don't even need a welding setup, rivets will do a great job holding the thing together.
Counter point, what if I scrap that idea and build something MORE retarded? Are there people out there making their own skeeball machines or what sort of investment would I be looking at? I'm genuinely curious.
If you're building something for Jim it probably won't matter as long as it has a lot of gyrating dildos attached.
Completely off topic. Yes there are. My old neighbour made all kinds of fun fair machines from scrap. Not just mechanical ones, electronic ones too. He built a whack-mole, pinball, and something similar to skeeball. His prototypes were always fun to play with.
Neat. I'll look into it as a group project for the various kids.
The guy lives near enough to Bradford that I assure you he's not living the Huwhite Dream
As was said, I doubt he's thought about that. But also, how much would he get for them?
The Dear Leader inspired me to start a silver coin collection. Not only do you have the numismatic value but you’ve also got the scrap value which for silver increases with relative stability. Plus a lot of them look really cool and sometimes you can even pick up job lots for less than their scrap value on eBay.
That dose hit a ring of truth Jimbo does not come off as having a spiritual side or much moral strength, I get the feeling he will do wgat he's told to by his betters in the left but I don't get the feeling he would challenge them if he was confronted with problems linked to his approved beliefs he would ignore the problem.
