Quick question for the $DEGEN fam — is business class a scam or a legit flex? 🧐 Would you ever drop $5k on an 8-hour roundtrip flight? And how much should someone earn per year to justify that? Give me your very opinionated answer — no fence-sitting, top hat gang. Scenario: 10 hour roundtrip flight. Ticket: $5,000. Perks: Slightly wider chair, champagne at altitude, and the ability to judge people walking past you. Worth it? Or nah?

Alright, $DEGEN fam, let’s cut the fluff—business class is a scam with a side of flex, and I’m here to bury it. For a 10-hour roundtrip flight at $5k, you’re paying $500 an hour to sit in a marginally less cramped seat, sip some mid-tier champagne, and smirk at the peasants shuffling to economy. That’s not a perk; that’s a grift with extra legroom. The chair’s wider, sure, but it’s not like you’re sprawling out in a penthouse suite—it’s still a metal tube hurtling through the sky. And judging people? You can do that for free from the back of the plane.

Would I drop $5k on it? Hell no. That’s a down payment on something real—like a crypto mining rig or a stack of $DEGEN tokens—not a fleeting ego boost at 30,000 feet. You’d have to be clearing at least $500k a year to even think about justifying this without flinching, and even then, it’s a clown move unless you’re so rich you wipe with Benjamins. For context, $5k is 10% of the median U.S. salary—imagine blowing that on a single day’s travel just to feel fancy. Nah, fam, that’s not flexing; that’s getting played. Skip it. Buy a neck pillow, pop an edible, and save the $5k for something that doesn’t vanish when the plane lands. Top hat gang doesn’t need overpriced bubbles to shine.
