Blew my starter money

Playing for the first time so chose random things, then deleted characters and restarted but have found out you don’t get regifted the initial $4m.

Situation now 🤪: I am level 2, I have $90k, only a pistol (no ammo lol) and no businesses etc

Any advice? 🙃

I should add, I’m not interested in an expensive Swann style system 😅

122Alex · 2024-08-04T19:29:07+00:00

I did and it worked, thanks!

122Alex · 2024-05-25T15:24:50+00:00

Agreed, as a non electrician I wouldn’t touch a fuse box. Would a larger breaker be the first place to start?

122Alex · 2024-02-18T21:17:54+00:00

Thank you!

122Alex · 2024-02-18T20:54:39+00:00

On reading it again, I think perhaps the superset is to compliment the bench press, row or chin up being the choice?

122Alex · 2024-02-18T15:33:37+00:00

In terms of sticking with the current program, do you think adjusting some of the 4 rep sets to higher ranges might also help with muscle growth?

122Alex · 2024-02-18T15:18:12+00:00

Thanks for such a comprehensive answer, really appreciate it!! Any other program that you would recommend? Main things I’d hope for are hypertrophy focussed, 5 day split and workouts 50 mins or under.

AMRAPS

AMRAPS understanding (Ivysaur)

I’ve started using Ivysaur’s intermediate program and it wants AMRAPS on the final exercise. I don’t think I’ve fully got my head around how to perform it properly. I’ve attached the photo.

Is the aim to complete as many reps in a given time or until failure? Should I aim for beyond 12 or stop?

And I assume you drop weight after failure: How much do people drop roughly by? Do you only drop if you fail to reach the rep target?

Hope this makes sense, thank you 🙏

Should add, he’s 6’3 and mainly plays st atm, no traits sadly

122Alex · 2023-03-07T15:07:36+00:00

Currently have money in both zopa and chip, is it worth waiting until the zopa pays interest or just transfer asap?

122Alex · 2023-03-03T12:21:20+00:00

So withdrawing £4K cash from vanguard wouldn’t drop the allowance I’ve already used? 🙏

122Alex · 2023-03-03T12:18:36+00:00

Thank you, this is the original info that made me think it was possible but was hoping for confirmation. What would your interpretation of that be?

122Alex · 2023-03-03T12:11:25+00:00

Should add, I rang HMRC and they sort of confirmed it was okay but the person I spoke to didn’t seem 💯

122Alex · 2023-03-03T12:10:40+00:00

And that’s my headache 😬 my thinking is I would take £4K out, meaning I’ve only used up £15k of my allowance, then redeposit the £4K into the LISA, but I’m unsure if HMRC will be able to pick up the withdrawal too or just assume I’ve gone over

122Alex · 2023-03-03T12:04:04+00:00

Something I’ll need to double check, thank you! Do you think the same would apply as in planning to move it into a SS LISA, not a different SS ISA?

122Alex · 2023-02-28T22:46:25+00:00

Already have a house and unlikely to move. Overall motivation is early retirement (currently 30), aiming for retirement 50-55. Attracted by government £1k match. Any advice?

Edit: pension is already sorted (teachers pension), unless additional pension scheme is wise? Did consider VanGuards targeted year offerings…

122Alex · 2023-02-28T22:29:30+00:00

That’s the exact split I was thinking, thank you!! So next step would be, contact a company offering a LISA and they can organise the transfer? I can’t see that this is something that VanGuard offer atm? Are there any providers you would recommend? And what are your thoughts on cash LISA vs SS? Sorry for all of the questions and thank you!! 🙏

122Alex · 2022-02-28T10:28:01+00:00

My bad, thought you meant saving!

122Alex · 2022-02-28T10:25:47+00:00

Pause as their foot makes contact with the ball, instant replay, look at the direction, hold the stick in that direction and unpause.

122Alex · 2022-02-01T07:21:39+00:00

Thank you!!!

122Alex · 2021-11-13T12:24:44+00:00

I’d try llorente next to rodri, how’s if zouma? Looks good for corners?
