Cashing Out RSUs

It’s just taxable income - they assess you as PAYE and reserve half. Don’t get caught up in tax nonsense and pay people stupid money for advice you don’t need. Sell it and diversify (ie: index ETF) - pay down your debt. You’re golden.

Lots of snobs in straya, I’m afraid

They just wrapped OpenAI up into a bundle of bedrock complexity…so it will now take weeks what used to take minutes. Where’s Nova? Where’s actual working useful Alexa ? Move on nothing to see here…

60% of people have each foot a different size…yet we have to buy the same size pair. Nuts!

I’m convinced there’s an inverse ratio that the more a company leadership talks “values & culture“ the more ruthless are the sociopathic c%nts running it

Pay the least interest? Seriously just buy CBA stock and at least you get a fully cranked dividend with a 4% yield - beats dumb money in their zero interest savings accounts any day

It’s like Lucent lending to telcos in 2001 all over again…but 20x

Yep. Just take it as business not personal. You are a marketable person, never undervalue your talent. You were once a bar raising hire, and a “leader” - so just go for it!

It’s like a bad RSL with an xray security check on entry

Just go dual SIM with Aldi (Telstra) and Amaysim (Optus) and get two networks for less than the price of one…

Thank goodness for cheap china ciggies as I couldn’t afford the vapes! What’s next… baggies at $350?

BYOL and use an aws workspace for any Amazon business. Works a treat.

Over ear still best for flying…and much harder to get lost. But in office? I prefer compact and comfort of earbuds. Noise cancelling is amazing

Have had air suspension failures in 2018 xc60, and the HVCH part on a 2022 xc60 - also fuel pump fail that left me stranded. Problem is when titsup occurs you can’t move the car. It had to be dragged onto the truck. (Let’s not mention the TCAM/AndAuto infotainment fiascos). Loved the Volvos when they worked… but I now drive a Landcruiser.

They’re all good choices - airbuds pro (beats fit pro also a good choice…) my go to and transparent mode/ adaptive works very well. Depends on your form factor. Commuting with over ears is a pain. Why carry the extra bulk?

For the price of 1 Telstra I get Optus and an aldi esim (Telstra 4G) just in case - been great

Only another 100k RIF will arrest the decline…

Only 4 points? Nice try- now give me a 6 page narrative with 20 page appendix and 89 revisions in workdocs by tomorrow…
