    Yes, it’s a one time waste of a large sum of money. Not entirely sure why that’s supposed to be better. Congratulations, you got a jpeg. Bet it was worth $15,000.

      You’re not sure why lifetime debt traps are worse than one time bad investments? Are you just trying to win an Internet argument at this point thinking I’m defending NFTs? Because yeah, a lifetime liability is generally worse for your average person.

        This is a bizarre exchange. You ARE defending NFTs and trying to get me to defend timeshares. Which are only superior in that they exist. Which is all I said.

          ‘X is an awful thing but it could be worse’ doesn’t really sound like defending X

          Yeah but see, I’ve only commented on how bad timeshares are and how you don’t actually own anything. They’re both equally awful, as the op stated. You’re the one trying to carry water for their actual value which is largely none or worse negative.

            …God I hate the Internet. No, I didn’t. Wouldn’t ever. Haven’t here. Would be a bizarre thing to do.

              How about you review the thread there hoss and think about who started getting defensive, reflexively downvoting, and pitched folks as holding a position they didn’t have.

                The only value they gave time shares over nfts is the fact that time shares exist. While yes, that does make them MORE valuable than nfts it’s not really by much.
