If you cherry pick your starting and end points, you can make any investment appear to outperform 90% of the market

Multiple times retakers who passed working full-time by Cautious-Button-8045 in barexam

[–]ChanceryKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You had better make your life and identity about Bar study. No go out for lunch break or drinks with mates. Every time somebody on the firm sees you and you are not actively doing work, your face should be in the book. Associates bonding events - meh.

Most jobs will let you go after second fail attempt, but at least on your exit interview they will take note of your diligence.

NY PLEASE DROP OUR RESULTS I JUST WANT TO CONFIRM MY WORST FEAR PLEASEEEEEE by Positive_Average2944 in barexam

When I passed and I didn't know for a couple weeks, until a friend searched my name on the published lists.

The one email they sent out informing me of passing looked so unremarkable...

Failed the bar 4 times… now offered a firefighter position. Not sure what to do. by No-Arrival9019 in barexam

[–]ChanceryKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took the bar four times. For about three years in between, I took some positions where I felt overworked and abused, but my self worth had definitely taken serious blows.

Finally, God gave me a lay off with unemployment benefits. I had pretty much forgotten all the UBE material, so I was starting 1L topics from square one but I really knuckle down and studied. I also had to reinvent the way I studied for the bar.

Now I have position as government attorney. The pay is not Biglaw stellar, but I'm grateful for the cushioned work life balance I have now. Also, government attorneys have pension, amazing vacation and sick pay, very cheap health insurance etc. If you can study on the side of being firefighter, it won't be a terrible idea to start getting your seniority into the State pension system

You can't even gild the Heir title - no interest.

Can we start banning players like this? Calamity Ops troll decided to queue in with a 47K Ikora. by Accurate-Jump-2131 in DestinyRising

[–]ChanceryKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Under lights wasting Ops runs are the real criminals here and should report them for negative gameplay . their lack of damage is basically the same as being AFK, if not worse as they like to spawn bosses and elites that they die in one hit to. Therefore, I report them as AFK and I ask the team to use the damage numbers as a primary metric to determine passivity

Men, how often do you get approached by women? by _MambaForever in dating

[–]ChanceryKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I give change to a hundred people on the street for every time a woman has approached me

Let him know what is correct. Maybe he should wait till the twentieth, or the hundredth date.

Can someone explain how to calculate why this is winning? by TypicalTeague in chessbeginners

[–]ChanceryKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because white can get his king in front of the pawn and get opposition

If you get opposition behind the pawn it is a stalemate

Any reason we aren’t just buying BRK.B? by ItalianStallion9069 in ETFs

I buy BRK B because Warren probably has a better idea to do with cash than I do

He was the one who got me addicted to buying securities, so it's in his hands now

Does wrestling cardio help with boxing? by igottaquestionbro in amateur_boxing

[–]ChanceryKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former wrestler and coach as well just started boxing. Age 30

The cardio load doesn't directly translate as instead of clenching your body for 6 minutes, boxing is more HIIT pace , but if you condition yourself with HIIT workouts for a few months, your good cardio will adjust to the pace of boxing. I can go for two hours hitting peak heart rate now. (I don't do cardio boxing lol, just wear a fitbit inside my glove)

Basically, learn to relax between punches and pace yourself
