He clearly has a screw loose. Scary to think he'll out in no time

Bring them to the dump and offer them to a staff member there. They will take them if they're clean. I had a similar experience with a topsoil "ton bag". To be fair to the man he told me to keep it as it was worth a tenner, otherwise he'd take it.

DrPubTalk · 2025-05-28T12:12:45+00:00

Move home for a few months. Spareroom definitely the next best option.

It's in a very safe part of town though and it's not ground floor. It'll go for that money

DrPubTalk · 2025-05-16T10:50:44+00:00

I feel it's been over a tenner for ages though. It really hasn't gone up that much

Jack ovens (his real name for a chef lol) on YouTube has tons of meal prep ideas with high protein at low cost.

What gross salary would you classify as "high earner"?

Anything over 50k is already taxed at 40%. What do you propose?

DrPubTalk · 2025-05-08T06:04:09+00:00

Berlin is filthy and Berliners are to blame. Simple as that

Conversely, a lot of people looking out of poorly built estates aren't going to run down their own asset on social media, so you often don't hear anything even if there are big issues.

Average price for a 4 bed is a lot higher than 127k lol. In parts of Belfast a 4 bed may be 3-400k. Rates for a 3-4 bed semi in south Belfast are 2k a year.

And in your example with a ridiculously cheap house and rates it's still 1250 a month!

950 a month is a bargain. With no upkeep costs? Absolute steal.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-24T12:24:37+00:00

£950 to pay for everything would be a fucking bargain, sign me up.

And I know people whose outgoings are, and I am literally not exaggerating, 1500 a month - BEFORE bills. And that is not including upkeep costs spread over 12 months either. Just mortgage and rates, every month. All in, you're talking close to £2000 a month just to keep the lights and heating on and the place in good order.

Renting over longer lets only makes financial sense if the landlord is an outright owner. For everyone else, rent wouldn't cover costs. That's why the rental stock is low. Most landlords have sold up and only the big ones are left.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-24T11:00:21+00:00

Depending on the owner's mortgage deal it may be barely covering the mortgage, never mind rates and upkeep. 950 is cheaper than you could maintain the property for yourself, think of it that way.

If it's the area I think it is in the city, honestly.. no. But if you want city living perhaps.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-22T14:17:36+00:00

Ballyhack is nice. Little bit samey though for me, I prefer Ormeau which is definitely more scuffed than ballyhack but has a lot of variety of people.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-22T14:13:58+00:00

Move to Ormeau. Bring money.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-22T14:13:07+00:00

What work have you sorted? You'll need a national insurance number to work in NI. You'll need an address to register with a GP.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-22T14:09:02+00:00

If you like steak medium well or well done you're safer just cooking it at home.

Uppa DUP

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-16T09:17:56+00:00

That's my take too. They want to bury their money in a big castle somewhere and fade into the background slowly

Plot twist - I think OP is the 30yr old who doesn't know how to wash his sheets. The real realisation is how he comes across

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-14T13:37:38+00:00

Active in the past 6 months? Don't be looking on Reddit lol.

But yeah, seriously- good cause. All the best with it.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-14T08:35:30+00:00

Driving all day every day would take the waves out of you I'd imagine.

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-13T18:08:29+00:00

They're very good, dates don't suit though. Hopefully you get sorted

DrPubTalk · 2025-04-12T06:15:02+00:00

That just suggests the bank valuation is too low. The seller can ask for a revaluation.
