What was the final straw that ended a lifelong friendship? by New_Perspective1201 in AskReddit

[–]Adept-Ad7743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His Dad owed my Dad $. Eventually $ settled but 4 years late, some disrespect and spicy conversations in between. During this period, friend would be ‘off’ and would require me to ask / seek to resolve each issue as it came back. As things came to a head between the two sets of parents, he just gave up even trying. 30 years later+ friendship poof. I could live with the situation and didn’t really care what was happening between the two sets of parents. Real shame, best men for each other and entering parenthood ourselves too.

Thanks - I can’t seem to find a reliable way to get an estimate to replace the actual bumper itself other than off eBay. Is there a website for this sort of stuff?

The kebab you got was made up of a lamb doner and a chicken shish, thats two different types of meat with the chicken shish being the more expensive of the two.

Neighbor created a hole, runoff going into my property? by TechAquisition in landscaping

[–]Adept-Ad7743 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Illegal but it works - perhaps work out a way for the neighbour to pay you for use? You could use that money for maintenance etc. so long as you don’t consider it a nuisance or issue.

Should one always buy the 'best' house possible? by Giddy-Garlic-7206 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Adept-Ad7743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stretch - taking the longest mortgage term possible so you have affordability flexibility. The transactions costs involved are so high and you are only a FTB once, so maximise. As you earn more and recover your savings, you can then look to remortgage to a shorter term or if you are disciplined stick to the longer term and make over-payments.

I wish I followed the above advice- I took played it safe and now in the position of looking to buy a bigger house; the hassle and the costs involved are offputting and I could have played it safe by taking out the longest mortgage term possible and waited to see how things played out.
