What is with these ultra wealthy people not understanding how bonuses work? You don't get them simply for working and existing, assholes.

I got a bonus once; $500 before they took forty percent of it in taxes. 'Cause I didn't really need to go to the dentist and get new tires for my car at the same time, obviously

Must be nice
