It is above all proof that you can be rich and have no taste.

Yes, but rich people have better taste than poor people summa summarum.

I like Orgain plant based powder because it can be mixed in just water and still have thickness and good flavor/mouth feel.  Whey proteins are objectionable to me mixed only in water.  I use orgain powder as a self contained snack on breaks at work. Mix with cold water and enjoy.

Currently on sale at costco for a couple more days.  I've found the more I use plant proteins the more I enjoy them. I don't particularly enjoy whey protein. When I want high protein that's not a powder, I use cans of costco canned chicken (drained because they add sodium phosphate to it)

$2 per can in store price for around 45 grams of protein per can... not too bad.

As for a "quality car" I like toyotas because I love Japan's conservative mentality where they focus on build quality and longevity. I have a 2012 Camry with the V6 engine that at 140,000 miles is not even halfway through it's life. If I was to buy a vehicle now I'd get a 2020-2024 lightly used Camry Hybrid and then get a comma 3x unit for it's self driving capabilities.  These vehicles are bombproof.. the transmissions are very simple and will outlast the batteries, just about every component will last forever, and the batteries are warrantied at 10 years/150K miles and typically last much longer.   I care little for status symbol items that the unwashed masses by to show off, but to each their own. People incarnate on this planet to experience the variety that comes along with the capitalist consumption hamster wheel. There's no right or wrong to it, it just is. DNA and culture program us to like what we like.
