My Boyfriend bet me $500 that I couldn’t beat Elden ring in 6 months with little to no video game experience. Humor

The rules of the bet:

  1. No magic
  2. Only Melee
  3. No farming for runes
  4. Have to beat the entire game by June, 6th, 2024

I am currently on the last boss of the game with 89 hours played. I hope the last boss doesn’t take me 5 months. 😂

Shared finances in this particular case would be a hilariously big brained strategy. Basically 69D chess

I mean, that’d mean I get that portion of the discretionary funds to put toward something entirely of my choosing up to that budget amount…still a win even though it’d be half my money lol

Not really. It would be shared between OP and their GF. You're not part of that relationship lol

But really, in the case of shared finances, it would be the partnership's money being passed from one to the other. It would still be OP's money the same as it was before and vice versa. No money was lost in the transaction.

Depending on the financial situation, spending 500 bucks of our money has to be discussed, one you lose a 500 dollar bet, I get to spend it on whatever I want.

Yeye, seemed like the guy above either didn't understand or didn't agree, but I'm with you on this.
