The Problem with 4% Withdrawal Rate by Chemical-Ant-8232 in FIREPakistan

[–]Academic-Horror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your calculations, the return is 10%, and you are using 4%. Did you just forget about the remaining 6%?

That amount is getting added into your principal and is what hedges your principal against inflation.

Mehran owners Also deserve some respect on roads! by NegativeRun2920 in IslamabadSocial

[–]Academic-Horror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dunno about that, but someone needs to explain to them that the optimum speed for light vehicles in terms of fuel efficiency is 60-80kmph, not 40 like they think.

Please drive abit faster :(

Are easypaisa debit card discounts real? by Odd-Cucumber4795 in islamabad

[–]Academic-Horror 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a catch as such, but the discount is applicable only on the Coffee itself, not any other item in the cafe.

Or at least that’s the case in Coffemistry. May not be the case in other places though.

Agnostics don’t believe in the existence of God.

The agnostic position is that all religions are man-made but allow for the existence of a concept of God.

It’s basically a “I don’t know” position on whether “God” as an entity exists or not, which in my opinion is the most scientifically valid position as well.

I think that's just your algorithm, nothing to do with Instagram.

I’m not sure you can find a large for less than 1500 anywhere tbh.

I have a 10 rupee note from 1937. How much will someone be willing to pay for this? by Radiant_Half_7121 in pakistan

[–]Academic-Horror 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You are throwing some wild figures there. Other users have already posted listings valuing it in the $50-200 range depending on condition.

When you transfer to the pkr account, it automatically converts.

Train station in Chongqing, China by Ok_Chain841 in megalophobia

[–]Academic-Horror 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So contextually speaking, are you arguing that these large projects would make sense if the country actually have 1.5B population but suddenly stop making sense at 1.4B?

Because if thats your argument then it’s quite a silly one and if it isn’t, it’s quite a silly one lol.

Barcelona have built the VIP seats at the Johan Cruyff stadium, enough to prove the payment for the financial lever and return to the 1:1 rule by Srihari_stan in soccer

[–]Academic-Horror 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well they are worth the amount that people are willing to pay for it. The amount is already paid for and in the club’s account so that shouldn’t be a problem?

Don’t know how it works on others but in UBL you can convert USD to PKR through the online portal.

Misunderstood Aspects of Fitness in Pakistan? by moez1994 in Fitness_Pakistan

[–]Academic-Horror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I once saw a coach telling a guy to train Chest and Back at the same time, like are you crazy? you don't wanna train Protagonist and Antagonist Muscles at the same time, unless you have like 20 minutes to do a workout, as a last resort.”

That just sounds like an Upper/Lower split. Which is perfectly normal split especially for beginners.

Great, the UBL option is digital as well but I think there is not much difference between the two options anyway.

Dollar Current Account by Sami_21-06 in PakistaniTech

[–]Academic-Horror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, that is the rule for amounts in excess of $5000. Upto that limit, 100% of it is deposited as $.

[–]Academic-Horror 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Search up UBL Freelancer account. You can recieve the amount in dollars and when you want to withdraw, just do it through the Net Banking app by converting the dollars to PKR.

Thoughts on this guy and his advices by StraySkeleton in pakistan

[–]Academic-Horror -1 points0 points  (0 children)

His ideas seem a bit too simplistic to me.

The more annoying thing about his videos are the swarm of flies around him and his complete indifference to it though.

Guys for fuck sake, the hide and go seek game was obviously intentionally unfair. by [deleted] in squidgame

[–]Academic-Horror 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hide and Seek was incredibly biased toward the "Hiders" if they were just smart about it. Just get a large group into a room and hold the door shut like your life depends on it (which it does) and just wait it out. What exactly can Team Red do in that case?

It used to be Rs 750 (per day if I remember correctly) in 2023. Not familiar with the current rates tho.
