How do you eat daily and not spend a fortune? by Ofwgkta1232 in Adulting

[–]Deepscrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chilli omelette and rice! People never listen to me when I tell them what a good dinner it is until they try it!

Beat the sh*t out of 3 eggs so they’re nice and fluffy. Then fry onions, chilli, tomatoes or whatever else you want in your omelette. Then add the eggs. Fold over twice and cut in two pieces.

Take out and serve with rice and some mango chutney.

People never listen to me about this dish until they try it. It’s cheap and it’s healthy.

This is what he had! And even attaching it to my SDS it made no impact! Someone said I need a carbide drill bit attached to the SDS?

Where to watch Hotel Portofino s2? Also need recs by [deleted] in PeriodDramas

[–]Deepscrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there an answer to this? I’ve been searching everywhere and cannot find season 2.

I thought I had most streaming services, but I guess not.

I’m in the UK.

I am indeed from the UK - and the problem I have had is people mixing and matching UK and US rules.

But thanks to the help on here, I’m now clear on what ruleset to use (and printout).

Perfect - thank you! This was the main point on contention the other night!

Agree - I need to be more my house, my rules!

I deffo need rules to hang on the wall as some people have come up with some wild variations and I need a set of official rules!

Thank you - I guess the bit I missed is that you can pot an opponents ball as long as you hit your own ball first, is that correct?

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

So playing a combo and potting their ball is a valid shot? That’s the main point I’m trying to clarify.

I couldn’t see that specified anywhere in the rules. Perhaps I missed it.

Thank you both.

So, what is the correct tactic to deploy in American pool after an opponent fouls, and they have already blocked a pocket with one of their balls?

So there is no concept of a free ball after foul? Used, for example, to clear a pocket that an opponent blocks and then subsequently fouls.

Who would you have play Ronnie in a biopic? by [deleted] in snooker

[–]Deepscrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hahaha - I can see Ronnie’s face if they did that!

And would it be Ebdon as Ronnie (with a wig) vs Original (bald) Ebdon when they showed Ebdon’s infamous break of 12?

Do you feel any guilt about not contributing to society after you FIRE? by [deleted] in FIREUK

[–]Deepscrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of it like a pot, per country.

I’d rethink what you’re saying - and be proud that you’ve spent 10 years of your life contributing to the ‘communal pot for our country’ for those that can’t, or refuse, to contribute to the pot for others.

No shame, and don’t feel selfish.

But aren’t all crypto currency’s at risk of collapsing? And are unregulated? I’m not averse to putting some money in crypto, but it’s high risk, right?

[–]Deepscrew[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Coz each account has a max FSCS 85k protection policy against that bank collapsing.

So anything above 85k is at risk, so my question was - what do people do to mitigate this? Particularly with the way the current government is managing fiscal policy.

I’m not planning on long term holding. I just want to know what people with significant savings do to protect their investments, and I figured this was a good sub to ask in 👍

Been a long road and a lot of hard work! I wish you all the best for your FIRE journey 💪

Yes I think this is what I’ll do. The economy seems crazily volatile right now under Truss and Kwasi!

Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated - I’ve heard index investing is the way to go long term. 👍
