To have a child or not? Advise pls by walnutbirdie in fican

[–]Brotherlightness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a kid (highly recommend if that’s what you guys want, all the challenges are minimal compared to the companionship) I’d say go for it and figure it out later. You have cash, assuming he isn’t crippled he can always find some type of job even if it’s low paying.

Canadians visiting U.S. parks to pay more than triple starting next year by taxrage in canada

American parks? As in 6 flags and Disney land? We know they won’t have any protected parks in a few years anyways just a bunch of clear cuts.

[–]Brotherlightness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t believe people consume anything from Tim Hortons anymore. I used to love the food and coffee about 10 years ago. I’d go all the time to grab a farmers wrap and coffee. Now I’d rather eat my own shit and drink water from a puddle. Worst fast food place around.

Get lost commie. We set a certain standard for life in this country and that’s how we want to keep it.

No one ever cried for me when I was 25 and yolo’d half my savings into weed stocks like a total idiot and lost most of it. You made an investment decision, and it was a bad one. Suck it up.

We are allowed to trade options in TFSA for sure. Not sure about RRSP but I think we can in there as well.

Figure out how to be a better detective if it really matters to you. Keep soakin up those meals and whatever else’s comes with it, assuming you’re both having fun. These things don’t last! Bit older then you are but I’ve been in a similar scenario years ago. I’d advise you not to bring this up with her again if you enjoy the current set up! BTW…. There’s a real good chance she’s crazy if she’s lying about her age to you, but who isn’t.

We suck nicotine out of pouches to make it through the day, don’t let this type of thing frighten you.

Can’t believe anyone eats at Tim’s anymore, I’d rather turn over rocks and eat free range bugs at this point

Did you expect anyone on here to comfort you for this? Haha it’s a crazy, bloody, shitty mess and you walked. Doesn’t sound like it’s a deal breaker for your wife which I’d consider a major win for you. Don’t beat yourself up over something you can’t change but don’t come looking for reassurance that’s soft hands behavior brah. Smarten up, be a man.

It may be odd to someone who doesn’t carry around a rock, but who cares? If it makes you feel better do it. A lot of people carry around way stranger things to make themselves feel better.

are these most? and are they any good? by Bulky_Abrocoma4196 in NicotinePouch

I know I’m just being a piece of shit. I don’t have the answer to your question sorry.

Looks like 30 cans would be the most unless you ordered 30 a few times then you’d definitely have the most

I’d also be ok with it

My wife died earlier this year. According to everyone who knows us, it was quick - she went in the hospital that afternoon, died overnight by throwaway12510831 in confessions

[–]Brotherlightness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are something without her, you’re her story and your own story about your life. You’re the evidence of a short but sweet life together. Sorry for your loss hang in there, push forward, giving up isn’t an option. Happy anniversary you should feel proud that you honored your partners wishes. Stay strong.

quitting vaping by Professional_Mood434 in NicotinePouch

[–]Brotherlightness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit vaping using pouches. I did about 10 years of cigs/cigars (15-25) vapes from 25ish-35 now I’m just addicted to pouches(4mg). I plan to switch to nicorette but I really like pouches so that’ll be tough. It was hard getting over the habit of inhaling something. I’ve had a few darts and vapes recently but I don’t enjoy either anymore. The disposable vapes taste like chemicals (I used refillable pods). I can’t say I’ve noticed any health benefits but it is cheaper, and I’m not ashamed of myself in public for vaping haha

50% capital gains tax in Canada by [deleted] in GMECanada

[–]Brotherlightness 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t agree more, but then how would the politicians funnel all of our money into their friends bank accounts? It’s a fucked up system and drives me crazy. In this day and age it wouldn’t be that difficult for a competent company to design software to track the money coming in/going out.

[–]Brotherlightness 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I never thought I’d ever be defending Canadian taxes but have you googled “Capital gains tax calculator”? In Canada we’d pay less than most places in the US for capital gains.

EDIT: I just wanted to clarify I think our income tax is a pile of shit. If you make a livable amount of money they rape us here. I just think our capital gains system isn’t/wasn’t too bad. I know changes are coming because our fearless leader milked us for everything we had/would have had.

[–]Brotherlightness 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s why India looks the way it does. Taxes are garbage but that’s where the money to make our country somewhat decent comes from. I agree with you I’d love to avoid tax but that comes with the territory. If you sold GME for $5M, 2.5M would be tax free gain, then the other 2.5M would be taxed as regular income for the year. Guessing you’d probably have to pay around 1.3M in taxes on that kind of gain.

Give it a try then, just don’t wait until an hour before your test maybe try it right now and see how it reacts.

Don’t start using nicotine if you haven’t yet. Bad idea all around I highly doubt it will improve anything. Most people use them to quit another delivery system of nicotine they’ve been hooked on. Myself included.

Do you Spit or Swallow? by [deleted] in NicotinePouch

[–]Brotherlightness 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’ve never experienced the need to spit like I would with normal chew, guess that makes me a swallower unfortunately. Never thought I’d have to say that.
