    It's getting a 200K funding from your dad that's the real trick. He also worked for a large company making money at the time, he wasn't trying to survive.

    Plenty of people have received far more than that from their dads. There must be something else.

    He didn't even buy any expensive cancer medicine, he just drank smoothies.

    /uj I'm not even making this shit up, he tried to beat his cancer with regulating his diet to include various fruits and vegetables and ended up using his private jet to jump ques on multiple organ donations , because , get this, YOU CAN'T BEAT CANCER BY EATING MORE FUCKING FRUIT.

    Buy a DE safety razor. The initial razor isn’t as cheap as some other options but blades are dirt cheap. The standard recommendation for a safety razor is the Merkur 34C, though I’ve never used it. I’m currently using the Henson AL13 and it’s fantastic, plus it’s made in Canada which was the main selling point for me. My wife loves the AL13 too, she has super sensitive skin plus a lot of skin issues and she hasn’t had any problems shaving with it, where she would normally have burning and itching for days. It’s not on the cheaper end but also not luxury prices either.

    That's what I have. I just get irritation using it, likely a skill issue, but I do have sensitive skin.

    While it's possible you just need cosmetics for sensitive skin here are some things you can keep in mind.

    You don't need to use force when shaving. It can just from its weight. I found myself subconsciously using force from my time with a 5 blade Razer.

    I also clean the Razer after each use. I remove the blade and clean the blade and parts with soapy water. (Mainly because I have OCD over things being clean, but it definitely helps with pimples cause from old skin oils being on the blade and Razer guard).

    I love my Henson also.

    I'm super lazy and don't use shaving cream or oil. But I can easily shave after showering with just water.

    I had a one blade, and it worked great if you did the whole nine yards, but it sucked if you dont use shaving cream.

    The Henson works better with less effort than even a 5 blade imo

    Maybe he can just try out one more haircut. Maybe to just below the chin. Preferably with a large blade falling from some height. All you need is a basket infront to catch anything that falls off.

    Jesus christ.

    Are you a woman and is that USD?

    The most I've ever paid was $65AUD for a hearcut and beard trim in a mining town where the majority earned over 200k a year

    Yes, a woman, and yes USD. That’s the no-frills salon price for a trim for my hair which is “long/thick (curly)”. The more expensive places range into the $200s.

    At $30 per haircut, you’d need about 8 billion haircuts skipped to save that much. Dude must cut his own hair every few milliseconds.

    At $30 per haircut

    What? That cheap? When I went to a mediocre barber, I had to pay 35 eur, but now it's more like 45 eur. ^(forgot to shitpost)

    What kind of economy are you in? My haircuts are 48 million euro per month (they're on a subscription, but I locked in a good deal as an early adopter), that's why I'm not rich, no other reason.

    There's more going on here the just the lack of hair. What secrets is he keeping under that shiny dome of his?

    And than there is me who is bold and still goes to the barber because the feeling of someone else cutting your bold head with a razor knife is just great. Also I have a long beard which is the main reason to go to the barber but I digress

    Bullshit.

    Bezos can’t cut his own hair. He can’t see that far up his own ass even with all the mirrors in the world.

    He probably spends more to be bald than it would cost to get all new hair.
