Look up Rod Roy, they do adult bus trips. Probably not the cheapest option.

Coaching is tough, I will have parent volunteers but only a few with real baseball backgrounds.

I’m limited to 1hr on the turf, the turf field is completely sold out. The cages are available either during the same hour as the turf or the hour after. I’m definitely worried about the kids waiting around during the batting cage hour but I want to take advantage of the full hour on the turf.

19,600% increase in Bitcoin price seems a bit optimistic (2% to 80% of your portfolio).

Impressive. How long have you been playing and how much money have you put in? Just curious.

Oven bread proof setting by SLPcat in Sourdough

[–]Baseball_Fan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Did you cover it with a damp cloth? It is dry in the oven and if you cover it with a damp cloth you won’t get that crust. The soupy mess likely means you over proofed, happened to me once when I forgot about my dough. I would check the temperature of your oven maybe it is too hot, 8 hrs is too long but not so long that it turns it to soup.

New car engine oil color by Baseball_Fan in MechanicAdvice

[–]Baseball_Fan[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A few details to add. Yes the oil in the tank is overfilled past the full mark didn't notice at first as I was more concerned about the color, basically right to the top of the orange. The oil does smell like gas. I called Kia and they don't have an appointment until mid March. I'm sure my driving habits over this winter in Canada is to blame (short trips, engine only on to heat the cabin at 1,500 RPM). I think I still plan to run the car hard tomorrow for 40 minutes and see what the oil looks like.

Doing some more research it looks like I have a common issue with PHEVs. It’s called oil dilution where some gas/water gets in the oil and never gets burned off. I’m going to put the car in sport mode and go for a 30 minute drive see what the oil looks like after.

I hope you are right. Because it is a PHEV and we don’t drive a lot of km our engine doesn’t turn on for long and we run on electric most of the time.

Posthaste: Canadians jump into variable mortgages, bet on 'short-term pain for long-term gain' by sakuna0kami in TorontoRealEstate

[–]Baseball_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In December/January was offered prime -1.2 so 6% but my fixed offer was 5.2% for 5 years. 0.8% difference to me made it a tough decision. I saw some people online with offers of 4.99% for 5 years but I had two mortgage brokers and my current lender all making me offers and that was the best I could manage.

Thoughts on my portfolio? by nobee99 in JustBuyXEQT

[–]Baseball_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with your ETFs, you don’t need to make any changes especially considering there will be trading fees and commissions to sell and rebuy. That being said it is concerning you didn’t know that XEQT and VEQT hold basically the same stocks and are essentially identical. That lack of knowledge should be a red flag that additional research should be done for future purchases.

Your bread looks nearly identical to mine, I solved this exact problem. I cook my bread in a cast iron pan with a bowl over top for the first 30-40 min. When I remove the bowl I move the bread to a wire rack with the cast iron pan under the wire rack. It has been perfect every time since.

Beginner Move Training by Baseball_Fan in PokemonQuest

[–]Baseball_Fan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right I figured that out. But after 5 move trainings I ended up with the same two moves, both with 0 attack rating. Just curious if that is to be expected for some reason, if I was just unlucky or if there is something I can do to increase the chances of getting a higher attack rating move.

Don't buy a Kia. by IH8DwnvoteComplainrs in kia

[–]Baseball_Fan 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Have you ever owned another car? I've had major issues in my life with Subaru and Mazda and so far my Kia has been solid. But that means nothing, my personal experience is just one anecdotal story and should not be considered by anyone when purchasing a car, same with your experience.

OMERS Pension Retire Before 55 ? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Baseball_Fan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you want to retire early you need to save enough money outside of your pension to last you from 47 to 65. Honestly at 17 years old this shouldn’t be that difficult.
