Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
No offense to the op or anyone else. But I just dont give a shit about diddy, his children or their birthday gifts.
Thats all.
And your right. It must be nice to get a $360,000 car at age 16.

I have no interest in most teenagers in REAL life.

Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
I have no interest in that programme. I've had the misfortune of catching it a few times over here in the UK and it sickens me that kids are so spoiled and bratty. Unfortunately, it's spawned a UK version which is almost as bad. UK parents don't have quite as much cash as some of their US counterparts but it still saddens me. The whole thing is like one big pissing competition.
I think it's utterly ridiculous to buy a car like that for a 16 year old kid. He can't even drive. How is he ever going to learn the value of money?
I wonder if 'diddy' stuck his hand in his pocket and contributed to the Haiti disaster? Along with all his other rap star buddies, he could probably have funded the disaster appeal single handedly.

Haha...I was waiting for that comment to be made....it has nothing to do with his "rap star buddies"...it's bigger than rap----it's not rap stars' fault that the earthquake happened. It's bigger than one person or one group of people.
I wonder how many "rock stars" or "country stars" or "opera stars" donated?
For that matter, I wonder if Bill Gates or Ms. Martha Stewart or Donald Trump or Paris Hilton and the Hilton family, or if ANY mega-millionaires or billionaires donated???????? They are the ones you should be looking to.
Noone is criticizing them...yet this guy throws a party for his son and gives him a gift for a filing on an MTV show (that, btw, was probably already planned/ordered months or years prior to the Haiti disaster) and gets singled out  Hmmm, I wonder if MTV donated any of their mega-billions to Haiti?????????
It's about what we can do to help.... not one person! Before you point fingers, look in the mirror and put things in perspective. Have you done your part and donated anything????
I have.....!

Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
I was prepared to castigate the kid's dad for buying the boy such an extravagant gift. But then I read this:
Quote:
|
The party, which was filmed for the MTV reality show "My Super Sweet Sixteen," featured performances by rappers Fabolous, Lil' Kim, and Jim Jones. Cast members from "Jersey Shore" were also there to wish Justin a happy birthday.
|
After being subjected to that shitty crew of guests, the kid deserves a consolation-prize.

Well I'm very happy for you. I'm sure you feel so much better for telling us that.
Why should I be looking to Bill Gates or Donald Trump? Isn't 'diddy' a mega millionaire too? And I didn't say the earthquake was anyone's fault. You're reading too much into it.
I've done my bit for Haiti. But I'm not going to be so crass as to brag about it here.
This thread wasn't about Haiti anyway. I was simply trying to draw a comparison between the extreme situation in that country and a guy who thinks nothing about buying his son a stupidly expensive motor car. But that's the money obsessed, wealth and riches society we live in these days. No wonder we had a credit crunch. I think, perhaps, it is you who needs to put things into perspective...

This was nothing but a publicity stunt to show the world how rich Combs is - that he can buy his kid a $360,000 car. Nothing but an ego inflater for Puffup Hisself.

Bill Gates
Oprah
George Soros
The Hilton Foundation is donating, but I couldn't find an amount.
Diddy apparently donated $10,000 as a gift to his son and sold off some of his things to raise money... not too impressive.

Dude, you make no sense---first of all, his [stage] name is P. Diddy, not 'diddy'. You're trying to be funny, instead of mature. Secondly, ok yea he may be a multi-millionaire, but he is NOT a mega-billionaire like Gates and Trump---so why/how are you even comparing him to them in saying that he can afford to donate as much as they can? That's stupid in, and of, itself.
Who cares if he wants to buy his son a gift...so what? Why is it any of your concern what he chooses to do with his money? And since you "claim" this thread wasnt't about Haiti, then why did you feel the immense need to bring it up and even comment about Haiti when referring to this boy's birthday gift??? You, in your evil ever-criticizing I-just-gotta-hear-myself-talk bitter ways, just had to say SOMETHING negative huh?

Exactly.....let them be---they are not bothering anyone, he earned his money just like the rest of us did. Nobody is going around telling us how we should spend our money!

Well, apparently SOMEONE is buying these vehicles....and to be able to afford them, you need alot of "sense" to become a self-made mega-millionaire. My hunch tells me that there are millions of people OTHER THAN P. Diddy buying these cars. I don't get your point......?

And? Who cares...people do this all the time....if you pay attention, this is for a taping of MTV's "Sweet 16"...people not as rich as Combs have bought their kids $200,000 cars on the show, so why should Mr. Combs be treated any differently?

Again, what's your point??? This was for his son's 16th Birthday and MTV's television show....how are they related to Haiti?????? Why are those two events even mentioned in the same sentence???

Just another kid of wealthy parents who will not teach the value of earning things. this will set the example for the rest of the kids life that things are free and you dont need to have any responsiblity.

Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
Just another kid in the long line of them on this show who are spoiled rotton. I can't understand why anyone watches this show.
It features selfish spoiled brats who talk back and insult their parents, "friends" who are fake and are only there for money, and generally show people at their worst. Seven minutes of this show was all I could take..truly one of the worst ones out there.

Yea, but for every bratty, drugged out, disrespectful, or unappreciative kid---there is always a humble, appreciative, down-to-earth heir/offsrping/kid to counteract your perceived "stereotypes" of wealthy children....but I guess in America's social "pop culture" we are programmed to always highlight negative stereotpyes/be hateful/be jealous, rather than thinking for ourselves, appreciating reality, and (gasp!) actually being happy for the wealthy ones who are "normal".

Not necessarily. I think it's all in how you were raised, whether you are poor or wealthy. I know lots of wealthy people who are down-to-earth and make their kids do chores and don't let their kids have whatever they want even though they can very easily afford it......then again, I also know poor people who let their kids run all over them and get them anything they want even though they can't afford it. So there could be both extremes, and vice-versa's.
I'm sure what you see on TV (the unruly, unappreciative kids) is just for show to help MTV's ratings, just like all of their "reality" shows are staged.

Americans pride themselves on a culture and government that foster equality of opportunity. We most admire self-made men, people born with nothing who through shear grit and talent become fabulously wealthy.
The problem with that is that deep down inside, we don't really believe in equality of opportunity. If we did, we would fund education differently. If we did, we would change inheritance laws. The wealthy would not be able to leave their property and their money to their heirs and friends; when you died, you would not be able to leave anything to anybody - the tax would be 100%.
The problem with Justin Combs getting a $350,000 car for his 16th birthday is that for him to be able to get it, tens of thousands of other 16-year-old kids have to go without. If they're lucky, they'll just go without money for college. But if they're not so lucky, the case with the vast majority, it will be going without enough to eat, adequate shelter, basic medical care, clean clothes, etc.
Now, if somebody could show me how Combs getting a $350,000 car will make it possible for him to do something in the world that saves others' lives or deeply enriches others' lives, then maybe I might look at things differently. But as far as I see it now, the return on this investment in human potential will be a complete and total loss.

Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
I watched CBS Reality on the satellite this afternoon, there was a program about real life trauma room. A 15yo kid got taken in found wrapped around the engine block after driving and crashing. He survived, but had both femurs broken, as well as other injuries.
At 16, I think a powerful car like that would only encourage the kid to show off. I hope he doesn't end up in hospital and make his dad regret his largesse.
WRT the huge gift to his son, it could be something to do with taxes...

Because it sets a bad example and doesn't teach his son the value of money. Maybe I work on a higher moral plain than you do. You seem to think it's perfectly acceptable for a guy to buy a 16 year old a ridiculously expensive motor car. I don't and nor, it seems, do a lot of other people here.

What 'evil ever-criticizing ways'? Are you stalking my post count here on JUB? How many times have I posted in Hot Topics of late? I barely pass comment in Hot Topics. This is probably my second post here in HT in the last month. 99% of the time, you'll find me heaping praise on hot, handsome older men in the Daddies forum.
And the last thing I am is bitter. I promise you, my friend, I could go out and buy a Maybach tomorrow, if I chose to do so. I choose not to, 'cos it's a stupid amount of money to spend on a car, let alone for a 16 year old kid. I wouldn't even buy a Rolls Royce. And I could buy either of those cars in cash. No questions asked. I'll show you my bank balance, if it's that important to ya...
Given the amount of responses you've made in this thread (most of which are at odds with what other people seem to think), it sounds to me like it's you who loves to hear himself talk...

Dude, It's his money, he can do whatever he plans/wants to do with his money. For all you know, his son already knows the value of money and been taught well, despite getting a gift---you don't know that, yet it is much easier for you to assume the negative. If you feel better about yourself for trying to say you have higher morals than me, be my guest.

Now that you have bragged about your supposedly large amount of funds in the bank, do you feel better about yourself??? I mean, what's your point; do you want a medal? In your own words "I'm sure you feel so much better about yourself by telling us that....being so crass as to brag about it here!!" And no, it's not important to me at all dude, you brought it up. Don't flatter yourself--get a grip on reality.

Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
Jollymolly gumdrops for that fuck trophy then but I still don't understand why I should have to give two shits about what kind of car Puffy gives his son for his birthday.

WRT the huge gift to his son, it could be something to do with taxes...

I agree with you wholeheartedly, and that could also be the case with a kid in a '85 Nissan Sentra as well (so it's not all about the car, so much as the person driving it)----but the fact you are failing to realize in this instance is that:
1) a Maybach is to be chauffeured, not driven.
2) his father provided him with a chauffeur for the purposes of the son not having his license.

My point was I think the car is ugly and not worth $360,000 i'm not sure why that was difficult for you to understand.

But if they're not so lucky, the case with the vast majority, it will be going without enough to eat, adequate shelter, basic medical care, clean clothes, etc.
Now, if somebody could show me how Combs getting a $350,000 car will make it possible for him to do something in the world that saves others' lives or deeply enriches others' lives, then maybe I might look at things differently. But as far as I see it now, the return on this investment in human potential will be a complete and total loss.

Wake-up call: this happens everyday. This is nothing new, it happened with the Gotti's, the Hilton's, the Walton's....I can go on and on.
Who says it's personally Mr. Combs' responsibility to fund every child's education/lifestyle with his money?? He is a citizen of these United States just like anyone else is. The government is who you need to turn to if you want true "equality". Does anyone make you donate your paycheck or bank account to pay for something just because you have the money.
The comment that tens of thousand of kid's lives will be negatively affected due to his receiving this one birthday gift is beyond me. Tell me how so???? You gotta explain that one to me.
Rich celebrities give their children expensive gifts everyday. Did you here about the guy who made a perfume designer design his daughter her own $2 million dollar perfume for her birthday-----now if you wanna say something is a "complete and total loss", then that's your cue.

Oh trust me, it wasn't difficult at all for me to understand you were stating a dead-end opinion---I just dont get your point...lol. Luckily your opinion on "worth" doesn't matter in the high-6-figure-per-car automobile industry, or else it would be a complete disaster!

What's your point? Entertainers change stuff about themselves all the time. Tom Cruise and Madonna changed their whole religion, Prince changed his name to "a symbol", Charlie Sheen changed his name from Carlos Estevez, hell....Pink changed her whole genre of music!!!!
And you, sir, are incorrect, if you wanna be technical: Sean Combs changed his name from Puff Daddy to P. Diddy as a tribute to the late Christopher Wallace because that's a nickname that Chris referred to Sean as while he was alive, and also as a subtle way of re-inventing himself for the new millineum.

Dead-end opinion or not you said:

I don't get your point......?

But you did get my point. I was expressing my personal opinion of the car. I wasn't suggesting in the slightest anyone else had to agree with me or that my opinion was valid for anyone other than myself. If you want to talk high-end cars, lets talk Ferrari. Those things give me a hard on. Sex on wheels. If he'd bought his kid one of those I would have made a whole different comment

Yea---sure, then you [and "the others"] would be saying "How dare he buy his 16 year old son an exotic sports car that can go 200+ mph? Who does he think he is spending his money the way he wants to spend it on something I want!"
lol

Not at all, it's his money, hell if I had that sort of money I'd buy my own kids matching Ferraris - if I had any - it's not the amount he spent, or the fact he bought he bought it for his son. It's the fact the car is butt-ugly I have a problem with

That's stupid in, and of, itself.
Who cares if he wants to buy his son a gift...so what? Why is it any of your concern what he chooses to do with his money? And since you "claim" this thread wasnt't about Haiti, then why did you feel the immense need to bring it up and even comment about Haiti when referring to this boy's birthday gift??? You, in your evil ever-criticizing I-just-gotta-hear-myself-talk bitter ways, just had to say SOMETHING negative huh?
Exactly.....let them be---they are not bothering anyone, he earned his money just like the rest of us did. Nobody is going around telling us how we should spend our money!
Well, apparently SOMEONE is buying these vehicles....and to be able to afford them, you need alot of "sense" to become a self-made mega-millionaire. My hunch tells me that there are millions of people OTHER THAN P. Diddy buying these cars. I don't get your point......?
And? Who cares...people do this all the time....if you pay attention, this is for a taping of MTV's "Sweet 16"...people not as rich as Combs have bought their kids $200,000 cars on the show, so why should Mr. Combs be treated any differently?
Again, what's your point??? This was for his son's 16th Birthday and MTV's television show....how are they related to Haiti?????? Why are those two events even mentioned in the same sentence??? 
|
The sole reason you would allow the taping to be on Sweet 16 is the desire to publicize far and wide the conspicious consumption that one wants to be revered for. "People do this all the time" No, just the egomani ACS. And I lump whoever is on that show together, not singling out Puffup.

Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
I was lucky to get a card on my sixteenth!
Thinking back to how immature I was back then compared to who I am now, the thought of irresponsible 16 year olds driving around makes me feel slightly unnerved. Regardless of how much money their daddy's may have.
I do think though it's terribly quaint to watch the new money generation waste their money away on silly things like party's for their ungrateful teenage offspring who will most probably grow into ungrateful adults with addiction problems.

Sorry, I can't see how anybody defends this show or the parents on it.
Yes, you are free to spend your money however you please but if you insist on shoving in our faces on shows like this where you spoil your kids rotten and teach them no morals, then expect that many of us will call you on it.

I suppose you'll think my correction of your spelling of Rob Zombie is pointless.

Re: Justin Combs Gets Brand New Maybach for ULTIMATE 'Super Sweet 16' Birthday!!
Most people were appalled to learn about P Diddy giving his son Justin Dior (yes, that’s his name) a $360,000 chauffeur driven Maybach for his 16th birthday. Imagine a nightclub birthday party for 1000 people! Does this kid have a chance of not being spoiled rotten? Wouldn’t it be better to buy him a first class education?
And this from Page Six.
Diddy rented two THRONES and a $5000 golden CROWN for Justin, which was misplaced at the party. Diddy was afraid he’d have to pay for the missing crown, but it was eventually located in a stylist’s car with Justin’s clothes. A CROWN ? Somehow, EVERYTHING about this spending spree seems tasteless and wrong.

Well, only time will tell that-----we'll see in two years if Justin takes up a "first class education." For all we know, Mr. Combs has already started Justin's "first class" college fund 10 years ago! That's his personal business, and we will never know that until the time comes. Lots of celeb children never get an education, but get spoiled even more lavishly than Justin (a la Paris Hilton, Angelina Jolie, the Osbourne kids, etc). So why single him out? It's very premature to go assuming things without facts. You can't go bashing the kid already for something that he has, or hasn't done yet. In two years, we will see the results----and then I will respect your assumption as a valid point.

If you dont want any feedback on threads you post then perhaps you should be posting in a no flame zone. All I have seen of you in this thread is fighting and attacking people that dare post an opinion.
