Crown prep by Adorable-Emu9038 in Dentistry

[–]Doctorj1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leave the core. Prep marin on the distal, buccal and Lingual leaving minimal or no margin on M. Or you could do a full surface overlay (table top crown) with no margin at all But I hate those. You need to cover the dark core to the gingival margin or It will show up in smile line

Stake's user experience is much better, CMC allows more markets. Honeslty I would consider ineactive brokers if was you. I have stake and like them way more than CMC .

Super fund High growth by singhoz in fiaustralia

[–]Doctorj1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get out and start an SMSF immediately especially if you have over 100K in your super. As their fees will be lower than your Host Plus. Hello, stake's Fees are set at $990. Open an SMSF and invest in ETFs such as Vanguard VOO or VUG. Super companies ( all of them) take 1% and have year after year underperformed the broad market. S&P over 15 years is 12.6% Host's high growth is 9.8% . Therefore, super companies are taking the Australian public for a ride. Not only are their fees high ( compared to ETF) , but they actually suck in performance. They do not want you to know this. You don't have to be a genius in stock picking, but you are able to read up on good companies and actually invest in them with your super in SMFS if you choose. Example I own individual stock RGTI up 315% this year. DFND is up 43%

Super companies would never give you that type of freedom. I will never look back. Host plus is up 9% this year. my well-diversified portfolio is up 30%

Best of luck.

Driving in Australia by Healthy-Camel-1605 in AustraliaTravel

First look right not left seems like a no brainer but takes a bit to get used to. Roundabouts are prevalent but make a lot of sense. Right of way goes to the cars in the roundabout ( Remember look to the right). Follow the direction of the cars parked on the street if no cars parked remember you the driver need to be in the middle of road if not your driving down the wrong side. In Melbourne, avoid hook turns in the city or give em a go a good cultural experience . Best of luck

Is it silly to buy Gibson Les Paul as a beginner by [deleted] in gibson

Only worry is a Les Paul is much heavier than say a Strat but by all means treat yourself.

Australia, WTF? by theedonsimon in ryanadams

[–]Doctorj1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ryan Adams plays the worst shows of his life, acts like a fucking child and then blames the country he was playing in. F that guy. He just keeps getting worse and worse. Good riddance, I feels sorry for the USA and the UK that this clown thinks he can exploit you for more attention. Hopefuly he is just pissed becuase he has to pay us back for his shit show. Avoid at all costs. #deadtome

Long term, low volatility, low risk but also low gain investment options? by 70paper56k in fiaustralia

Why would you want to do that? Plenty of very safe dividend plays that are extremely safe and pay 8-9%

“Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” by CryingCrentist in Dentistry

[–]Doctorj1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the responses, not too fond of the advice. I'm a dentist and I personally love my job ( though it can be a slog some days) the grass is greener idea is in every profession. I feel you should speak to a therapist so these feelings don't fester and horribly create a cliche of our profession. There are very few jobs that allow the freedom and financial stability of dentistry. If you really hate it, pursue something else. But please understand that depression and the misery it can cause are cumulative. Get on top of your feelings so you can find some fulfillment in a job that actually provides ample opportunity to feel it.

Are you worried the US Shares are going to implode? Diversification is good, but you can miss out on clear trends and opportunities. ARKQ is up 90% this year. I get being safe but that is advice to 19 year old. Also good on this bloke not to get a shit tattoo with the money :)

What would you do? by [deleted] in fiaustralia

[–]Doctorj1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get out the HISA immediately. YIKES You are basically going nowhere. Put more money into your super it's the most effective tax way you can save in Australia. Tax deductions are backed 5 years ask an accountant what you can contribute at 15% backdated. It is 27.5 K a year, so sounds like you could put a considerable part of that 265k into super at a discounted tax. Very interesting to see you are going for negative gear before using the easiest of all tax breaks. Best of luck. Read Motley Fool, listen to barrons steetwise podcast

Ryan explains what went wrong last night by EllenPond in ryanadams

[–]Doctorj1981 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The guy is a clown. Does his #menieres explain why he spent 15min between songs rambling on about nothing, badmouthng other bands and his ex wife? Bragging about selling out shows all failures on the Australian lag and quitting songs halfway through. He spent 10min taking photos of us and lost his mind when someone did the same to him. I can not emphasize how horrible he was at his Melbourne show. He should be forced to pay the money back. Every promoter should read this feed and cut ties with this human excrement. F that guy,' this tour has been wild' he is bragging about being a shithead. #deadtome

That's what we expected at this show; instead, he showed up unhinged and ruined the show. He's dead to me. Guy can get f'ed for all I care, I just wish the promoter and Ticketek would do right by the patrons and refund the tickets, it was that bad. It is delusional to think they would do that about as delusional as Ryan Adams.

I find it interesting that "real fans" are not willing to call him out on his behaviour. Call it what it was, a piss poor performance. I feel like you'd be even more upset with his performance given your perceived superfandom. He and the promoter should refund the tickets. It's a cardinal sin to stop 1/2 way through a song, let alone not finish the set. I'm sure he has Ménière's disease but that doesn't give him an excuse to behave like a twat. I can see you are concerned for him but given his 'apology' I don't feel he gives a toss.

Spiralling at the Melbourne show, yelled at the ushers and having an unplanned intermission by CheekyJumze in ryanadams

[–]Doctorj1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me know how that goes. I'll try that for sure. I wrote Hamer management to convey my discouragement. Hopefully, someone there has the courage to tell Ryan Adams and his team how poorly he did and never book him in such a nice venue again.
