Don't blow it.
Keep it simple.
Count your money.

"squeeze off a few before I take two in the neck." Man Bill kills it every time.

[reimuslocke]

Dude's a natural comic. You can't tell me that guy wasn't funny even before he did standup.

Bill Burr's financial advice:
Don't blow it. Keep it simple. Count your money.

2 minutes from Bill Burr, that's not enough. Bill will hit you with the most outrageous sentence. Then you listen to the explanation/justification and you go (in Burr's mocking voice): "well I never looked at it like that"

[theinternet]

It's pleasant to see Wall Street Journal publish something that doesn't go against my interests, common sense and general economic and environmental wellbeing. You guys are awesome friends and I love your moms, now return to your decadence and depravity.

[JamesMorris]

He looks even more like Ron Howard with that hat, haha.

[partimegoodguy]

I was waiting for him to say "Dont blow it, keep it simple, count your the guy always comes up with the least expected and hilarious answer. That's Bill Burr

[scrumtrellecent]

Don't simple it. Keep it money. Count your blow.

[UndeadGamingCA]

This dude is my absolute favorite. Fucking hilarious

[royalflush]

you were already one of my favorites, but this, this shit right here, sealed the deal.  Please give me an hour stand up with you about economics.

"I'm learning to fly a helicopter". Oh man, Bill Burr cracks me up. He is one of the funniest guys out there right now.

[brassou]

And Ol' Billy Red Head DID learn to fly a helicopter! As of today 04/10/15, yes he did! Now all he needs is to buy one, keep it gassed up, and he has his escape route out of LA when the MadMax party starts.

[DonJuanDM]

Christ, he was spot on about LA at that time. Look at it now, homeless state.

[JoeyBullet]

I bet the WSJ talked to Bill for 2 hrs and only used 2 min. Too much truth in that man.

[kratos]

Breaking even on a house after 30 year ownership would be a dream.

[gordonm.]

Ron Howard is a great director, isn't he?

[thetahreaper]

Bill's quite a lot smarter than he gives himself credit for

[scrumtrellecent]

Money don't it. Blow it keep. Simple your count.

Good ol' Bill Burlington coat factory awoke AF
