What's the opposite of "no" last week?

What's the opposite of "no" in the future?

What's the opposite of "no" then?

What's the opposite of "no" now?

I give in what is it?

I like that answer.

Very modest. Even more feasible if you pioneered and built your own dwelling.

@FrayedBear I am 50 years old with neck and shoulder issues, I doubt I could learn enough carpentry or be strong enough to build a house.

@Nemeister A problem. I was in the process of making myself a mobile home when some mother's child did a hit and run on me leaving me for dead in the road. Bang went that plan and home of the previous six years.

@FrayedBear I'm sorry That's horrible!

@Nemeister C'est la vie. Not your child nor you.

Ooh I like your idea!!

Magic, it exists! See the Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation - [gatesfoundation.org] It currently has an endowment of more than $40 BILLION dollars. That mostly comes from Gates and Buffet and a couple other big money donors. That is $40 Billion in the bank today after spending billions already on vaccines, safe water, education, poverty reduction, and similar projects. Too bad they are not the rule, though.

i was thinking something similar!

I like that idea.

Money was my first thought. And then someone ruined the moment by mentioning world peace. I guess I t should have thought of that too.

you'd be dead in a year !

@markdevenish But it will be one hell of a year!

@TerriCity I saw that too. Perhaps with my money I can aid in attempting world peace?

How long do matched transplants last and how far are they off perfecting a blood oxygenator that can be worn on the wrist?

@FrayedBear Some have lasted 10 years , about 25% lasts 5 years, it really depends on best donor match. They have experimented with animals and had some success with oxygenated blood but not long lasting results. It's most likely long time before human use. I'd put money on stem cells first, there's even a procedure now that gives some good results using your own stem cells,but it's expensive and not Medicare approved. I heard $25,000 cost.

@buzz13 The only person I know off with similar problem is the great English fiddle player Dave Swarbrick (Fairport Convention, Martin Carthy, Alistair Hulett and other folk musicians). I'm not sure if he is still alive not having corresponded now for some years - No he sadly died in 2016 Dave Swarbrick - Wikipedia [en.m.wikipedia.org] . There is a Swedish chap who runs an organisation called Breatheology who may be able to give you some benefit. There are lots of YouTube videos and talks -

I wish I had the power to make that a reality.

We could use a do-over

@geko Yes, lets keep the house itself, but offload that crap ton of bullshit currently in it. We will need fumigators and dump trucks for sure.

Why cripple yourself with a loan when an outright gift without strings is much more empowering?

@FrayedBear Actually a gift would better but I know business people and giving money is something they do not do. Far too selfish.

@Wrytyr I was reading of a Canadian university professor in psychology who has recently become very popular for his opinions. So popular that people are apparently giving him money to the tune of $60,000 per month.

Vital to them is not necessarily vital to you unless you wish to give it to that needy person in which case I love your reply.

@FrayedBear That is exactly what I mean.

Nice answer. Very selfless.

Wizardry?

@FrayedBear You have a nice yard.

@Whathappensnow Thank you but past tense - Was. It is currently in need of serious weeding and tidying. The photos were spring at least two years ago.

And then we'd have Pence.... which may be more terrifying.

And his entire administration, including Pence. And most of the Republicans in the House and Senate.

Agreed!

@Captnron59 Lol. "Yes, I do know the numbers for tomorrow. Now... be gone!"

That was smooth!

Aww. Sweet.

Ooooo, that would be SWEET!

Seems reasonable to me.

#MagicPudding

Interesting...not sure I “get it” must reflect further. @FrayedBear

You've already got paradise @Rugglesby! The only thing that you are missing is an accommodating woman.

@FrayedBear you are right. things are pretty good here, I can't see me leaving any time soon.

It is a sad fact that for many it is not until health is lost that they realise how important it is. Some years ago I ceased to sign off correspondence with "your faithfully or sincerely". Now I use my own device: "I hope that the Companions of Health, Peace and Fulfilment travel with you throughout your life."

Good answer
Sorry about your health

Aiming for god status?

nah. I just wanna get past this rebirth cycle and stop being a slave to linear time.

Depends on whether it's addressed to the tin man or one of his relatives.

Smooth.

It’s all about your perspective, right?

@Alliegirl Exactly.... The ability to make compromise is the key to a happy life...lol...

Imagination is a good thing.

I have my fantasies @Alliegirl

Great attitude!

You are aware that if you live for another 50 years and simply spent the money without receiving any interest or earnings then you would have to dispose of $1.666 million each month to reduce nil in 50 years?

Isn’t that insane to get an education? A pharmacist I work with told me that she and her husband pay $1200 a month on student loans. I was flabbergasted. Good luck.

Another god question.

You have two hands?
