In this episode of A-Squared Ramblers, hosts Alex and Adriana go from unboxing a $2K MacBook Air to questioning how billionaires spend their fortunes - and why it might be time to grade their generosity. Adriana shares the saga of guiding her parents through the Great Computer Decision of 2025: MacBook Air or PC setup? Cue “education” discounts that aren’t really discounts, a missing monitor, and Mom’s complete lack of awe at Apple’s sleek design. From there, the conversation zooms out into a spirited debate on global philanthropy vs. helping at home, whether schools are actually seeing the benefit of tech donations, and what happens when the teacher shortage leads to hiring without licenses. It’s tech talk, hot takes, and side tangents you didn’t see coming — exactly the A-Squared Ramblers way.
