    name one person who operates logically all the time.
    we by our very nature do illogical things everyday.

        Because if you read the whole post I already address your response to this post before you post it.

        Maybe I will stop trying to add context to my arguments..
        because what I was trying to explain to you was the commonality
        of the arguement. Because believe it or not, what Mayweather doing is not
        uncommon.
        You ended your post with this.

        Which was a great conclusion to a post filled with nothing but filler.


        The only people who decide to make less, are people who make under 380k, and do not want to be put into the tax bracket.

        There's no point in even responding to me if you're going to come back with more **** like:

        Well, Floyd doesn't like to pay taxes.

        Well, everyone responds differently to taxes with their emotions.


        Fine, if his panties get all wet because he has to pay more taxes, even though he will NET OUT more CASH IN THE BANK if he fights again... then so be it.

        Just make it that ****ing clear.

        That it doesn't make any sense, but that's what Floyd wants to do, and I support him even if he makes no sense.

          Thank you for confirming that Floyd is infact not operating logically, and you blindly support him, regardless.

          We have nothing else to talk about.

            But if he pays more taxes... guess what that means?

            It means he MADE MORE MONEY.

            Point, blank, period.






            Why make 50 million and pay 17.5 in taxes this year?

            When you could make 100 million and pay 35 million in taxes?


            The first scenario you net 32.5 mill... the second you net out 65 million.


            Seems like 65 million is more than 32.5 isn't it?



            Your long ass post is mostly just filler Horus, and you know it.


            If he pays more taxes, that's because he made more money.. and netted more money.

            The discussion is over, you can't twist it any other way.


            Lets not even mention taxes being raised next year an extra 4%...

            How is that going to save him money?
            This is what I have been explaining to these peeps, even on the original thread. They just don't get it.

              Reed what you are doing is trying to win a argument,
              I am trying to have a discussion.

              Yes Floyd Mayweather is operating illogically if we go by your premise.
              however so does most of americans everyday.

              So what does that mean?

              Once again

              For the sake of argument, one could argue what Floyd is doing is no different from people who decide instead of paying upfront for things, they rather take a payment plan.

              It seems like majority of people in this thread are in favor of always paying upfront for things instead of spreading it out.

              If that is the case then,
              Why do some of us who have the money to buy the car upfront, instead elect to get on a payment plan to pay off a car, which in the long run could cost us more money....?

              You see where this is going?


              We end the discussion here. However understand that my total point was dont completely dismiss the argument, because the argument does have some validation because it has commonality with people in our society and other societies.

                  Joe prick down the road, making 500 bucks a week and needing a loan on a car.

                  Is not even in the same galaxy as Floyd, who gets a 40 million dollar paycheck.

                  Joe Prick needs a loan on a car because he can't afford to buy the entire car in one shot.

                  Floyd can afford to pay his taxes right away if he chooses too.

                  He just made 40 million for Mosley, right?

                  That means he owes 14 million in taxes.

                  Which he could just pay.


                  Joe Prick, can't just buy a 35k car in cash, because he doesn't have it.


                  These scenarios are not even close.



                  Why not make another 40 million and pay 14 mill in taxes?

                  How about another 40 million?

                  How about another 40 million?


                  At the end of the day the more he fights, the more he nets out.

                  That's 28 million cash in his pocket everytime he fights.

                  Why wait?

                  Why not fight Mosley, then fight again... then fight again?

                  Taxes are a poor excuse.

                  The more he fights, the more he makes, regardless of taxes.

                    LOL!

                    "Mayweather is a phedophile"

                    Horus: Those kids should not have been around him in the first place. One of the victims is a school bully anyway, he deserved it.

                      You see where this is going?


                      I wasnt talking some poor guy who cant afford it, i was talking about the people who can afford to do it.
