Post title:
TIL that IKEA founder Ingvar Kamprad (who started the company when he was 17) flew coach, stayed in budget hotels, drove a 20 yo Volvo and always tried to get his haircuts in poor countries. He died at 91 in 2018 with an estimated net worth of almost $60 billion.
Let's do this Sneedman style again. Tessa Fowler is the femme du jure.
!coomers behave
My favorite anecdote about him: "Even though he had a car, Kamprad often used the bus. In fact, he was once refused entry into a gala because he had arrived on the bus. He had to attend the event to receive a 'businessman of the year' award."
He also liked to eat lunch at IKEAs, preferably before noon, when the coffee was free.
Oh, and also, he was an active member of the Swedish nazi movement in the 40s
!chuds it is okay to label an entire race as monetarily stingy
A lot of it is myth that he carefully crafted. He most definitely drove Porsches and luxury cars, lived in mansions in Switzerland, flew private jets. They peddled this story so that when IKEA really fricked up (cutting down virgin forests, using prisoners as cheap labor, etc.), they sent out Kamprad in a off brand suit where he yapped about being a simple man and that mistakes were made, blah blah, the media fawned over it and the issue forgotten.
Whatever all this haircut nonsense is
"Nobody needs $60B" and something about Costco
This concludes my effortpost.
P.S.

I saw this thread yesterday where someone got 21 upvotes for claiming men who kill their partners gets 2-6 years in jail on average: https://old.reddit.com/r/TrueCrimeDiscussion/comments/152j7qj/i_watched_a_documentary_on_caril_fugate_and/
True crime-cels are especially r-slurred though for some reason.

There's no fricking way that's true. Being female is literally the biggest advantage you can have when it comes to criminal sentencing. Bigger than being white, bigger than being educated, bigger than being rich. It can't possibly be that different for this one specific crime. !nooticers, time for some research.![:marseydetective: :marseydetective:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseydetective.webp)
First, let's start with the linked source, an ACLU publication from 2006. They have a citation at the bottom for this claim. National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, 1989. No specific report, just the organization and year. Unfortunately, they don't link to it, and I can't exactly track down every single publication the NCADV put out that year, so we're gonna have to go deeper than that and try to find some sentencing information from around that time.![:marseyinvestigate: :marseyinvestigate:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyinvestigate.webp)
A quick bit of Googling turned up this executive summary of Spouse Murder Defendants in Large Urban Counties, published by the U.S. Department of Justice in 1995. The data itself is from 1988, so while it may not be whatever data the NCADV was using, it's close enough for government work (
). It's also only urban areas, but I doubt the sentencing was all that different in rural areas. Plus, the homicide rate in urban areas is a Heck of a lot higher, so this is a significant portion of the spousal murders that year. And fortunately for us, they've got the exact information we need in a helpful visual on the very first page. ![:marseyreading: :marseyreading:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyreading.webp)
According to this, women who were convicted of spousal murder got 6 years, whereas men got 16.5 years. Given that the initial claim from the ACLU (and possibly the NCADV) was that men get 6 years and women get 15 years, my supposition is that they had a document similar to this one, possibly from a slightly different year, and somehow got the numbers backwards. What !r-slurs.![:marseygigaretard: :marseygigaretard:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseygigaretard.webp)
And that actually downplays the sentencing disparity. 19% of women who were convicted received probation, relative to 6% of men. In other words, women who were convicted of murdering their spouse were over three times as likely to not even receive a prison sentence. They got to walk out of the courthouse with a criminal conviction, but free as a bird.![:eaglebikini: :eaglebikini:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/eaglebikini.webp)
Also of note is the conviction rate itself. 70% of women were either convicted or pled guilty, whereas 87% of men fell into that category. Beyond that, women who went to trial had a 31% chance of being found "not guilty", while only 6% of men who went to trial managed to convince a jury to find in their favor. Heck, women were 45% more likely than men to not even be prosecuted.![:marseyyass: :marseyyass:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyyass.webp)
So there you go. By every conceivable metric, women who are accused, charged, and/or convicted of murdering their husband are better off than men who are accused, charged, and/or convicted of murdering their wife. Or at least, they were in 1988. I could find more recent data to see if this is still the case, but I don't actually care enough to do any more research into deboonking this particular !foidmoment of a claim.![:debunked: :debunked:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/debunked.webp)
HUGE ADDENDUM: I failed to notice something initially. Check this out:
So I was wrong when I said "only 6% of men who went to trial managed to convince a jury to find in their favor." In reality, 0% of men who went to trial managed to convince a jury to find in their favor. It was the ones that went before a judge that had a snowball's chance.![:marseyjudge: :marseyjudge:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyjudge.webp)

Putting this in my summary would've cluttered it up, but I know you frickers aren't clicking the link, so here's the methodology:
It doesn't specify which 33 counties they used, but we're probably looking at ~25% of spousal murders from that year. Again, no rural data, but I just can't see that changing anything.![:marseyshrug: :marseyshrug:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseyshrug.webp)

Truecrime is so fricking r-slurred in that they're trying to all be investigators but then fly off on tangents based on something like "They looked confused, therefore the moid made them do it" or "I watched this documentary and it convinced me!" yeah no shit, a TV show that isn't a good source of information, is biased, and probably has precluded a bunch of information.

What's so morally good about being rich and driving a shitbox? So you just sequester capital like a Ghawar Field of NEETbux. For what? To give a few thousand more to some scam of an NGO?
You could buy a new G Wagen, hookers, blow, and Whole Foods prepared meals every day and not come close to spending 5% of your wealth. At least you allow people to recover some of the liquidity.
(It's funny that they all think themselves nothing like XTIANS and yet their morality and worldview is directly lifted from Puritanism minus God. If you wear burlap sacks, Science will be pleased and allow you entry into the right side of history)
