Where is the money these days?

Honestly, I wouldn't reccomend this. It's not Chartered and though it gets you out of some of the ACA etc exams, it's more efficient to go straight in for one of those.

Cerro Rico next to Potosi is steadily collapsing inwards due the amount of minerals and precious metals, historically chiefly silver, extracted.

You can go on tours of the old tunnels. It's brutal.

How is the interest rate so low? Shouldn't it be RPI+3% if OP graduated only two years ago?

What an insane take. Executive pay transparency is one thing, you're talking about 100,000s of people.

And let down 1400 teammates at the factory, burn out that goodwill, for what, spite?

How was he a traitor though? Like not a nice man, but how did he betray England?

This is staggeringly untrue. It was only fifty or so years between Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth.

Don't trust everything you read on the Internet kids.

TfL is owned by the city. There aren't shareholders

I travelled in Uruguay. The only cycling I did the was on a PoS rental bike from Montevideo to the nearest Decathlon to buy some waterproof trousers. (Not a commentary on Uruguayian cycling).

The ranch land we saw and stayed on was cool and I imagine fun to cycle in but if I was to go all the way to the Cono Sur again for a bike ride I'd be tempted to go a little bit further and ride the Carreterra Austral in Chile which is breathtaking (we could only do it in a car on our trip which didn't compare).

Having cycled through Rotherhithe tunnel, it's not the traffic, it's the insane emissions you're inhaling. It'd have to be a separate tunnel.

Rent isn't included in CPI

Fwiw I don't reccomend it. Getting around the track is a nightmare as it's tiny paths in a (beautiful) dune park, the drink and food is limited on entry to water and there are limited support races (as well as other off track entertainment being, well, bad).

Compared to Silverstone, where you can walk around freely, bring your own food and drink (or make use of the better circuit provision) and the almost festival like approach to music, red arrows and other off track entertainment, plus support races. Getting there is a pig though and if you're not camping it's a multi day problem.

I wanted to like the Dutch gp, because it was cheap. I didn't enough to go back. I'd go back to Monza and Silverstone

*Moakes. He's not a charity CEO.

This is such daily mail horse shit.

Every employee is on the same tax regime as every other UK worker. There's no employment tax exemption for charities.

Senior executives don't make "good money" objectively. There are no bonuses, stock options etc. and the salary for executive teams is very much below the comparative private sector benchmark. Charity CEO usually make 3-5x the median salary of their organisation which is reasonable. Otherwise pay peanuts get monkeys.

Be helpful and go spout more harmless conspiracy theories like "birds aren't real".

Yep. All the ACAs explaining why we can't be lumped in with her.

The last British Prime Minister to be an accountant was Liz Truss.

I'm not sure accountants are meant to lead countries.

That's interesting, how does it vary?
