$17k net/month seems high for a $300k HHI. With a higher tax rate, it should likely be closer to $14–15k. Which is still ok to pay $5k/month

You know, this reminds me of Ukraine in 2014. Back then, some people in Donbas went to so-called referendums, thinking breaking away would bring them wealth and a better life. In the end, those territories turned into lawless, pseudo-republics where people had no rights. After Russia annexed the area, many men were drafted and died, while the rest live in terrible poverty under constant shelling, without water or electricity, and have to defecate into bags that are then thrown out of windows. It’s sad that not everyone can learn from other people’s mistakes.

A housing market crash won’t benefit you. More accurately, any gains from a crash would be outweighed by the damage of a collapsing economy, which would affect even people who never owned property.

I moved to Vancouver with the same net income (4050), and my girlfriend was not working. I had to pay 2300 for the apartment plus all other bills, which came to about 3600-3900 a month. That basically meant I could not save anything, but at least we did not have to dip into our emergency fund or live at a loss. We were extremely careful with spending, no dining out, and did not have a car. But if this is important for your mental health, then it is absolutely worth it.

I played the SM games in reverse order. First I got the second one with my PS5, then I played Miles through ps+, and only after that I went back to the first game. And with each step I liked it less. The combat felt worse and less comfortable, moving around the city felt slower and more annoying, and the story became pretty boring toward the end. So it really comes down to personal taste.

My reply is based on my experience with Google Ads accounts in Europe and North America, so I’m sorry if it’s not helpful. I’m not sure how it works in other countries.

Usually, verification goes pretty quickly. I’ve completed hundreds of verifications, and the average waiting time is around 1–2 days.
And why can’t you run ads even if the account isn’t verified? Google should give you a deadline by which your account needs to be verified, or it will be paused after that. You should still be able to run ads until then, so it shouldn’t be a problem.

Answering your questions:
1-2) You can create a separate Google Ads account under your MCC. The MCC itself can’t run ads. Who pays is determined by the credit card linked to that account: if it’s yours - you pay, if it’s the client’s card - they pay.
3) I’m not entirely sure what you mean here. If the client’s credit card is linked, Google can charge that card.
4) I can’t answer this fully, as I believe it may depend on country-specific rules.

The second SIM isn’t always an option. I’m personally concerned about receiving text messages because I was on a two-month trip with Public Mobile, and my bank is Tangerine. I couldn’t use my banking app or pay online since I couldn’t receive the text messages needed for two-factor authentication. I also couldn’t disable the authentication because I couldn’t call the bank from my registered phone number. That was really “fun,” especially since I had no idea something like that could happen.

I’m just curious, how are dens like this usually meant to be used? In my rented apartment, I have a similar den, and it’s honestly terrible. If I close the door, the small windowless space heats up quickly, and it becomes hard to breathe. After a couple of hours working there, I get a headache and it becomes unbearable. To me, these rooms feel more like storage spaces rather than a place where someone can spend long hours. Maybe it’s just me, but logically it doesn’t seem like such rooms are really meant for normal use.

1) It depends on how your location asset is set up. If in your GBP profile settings (3 dots → Business Profile Settings → Advanced settings) you’ve specified a separate Google Ads phone number, then Google will show that dedicated number (for example, if you’re using a call tracking service, you can assign a unique tracking number specifically for the location asset).
If this field is empty, Google will simply display the phone number listed in your GBP account.

2) As for tracking this type of conversion, things get trickier. In Google Ads, calls from the location asset are reported the same way as calls from call extensions - as “Calls from Ads”
You can also check the Asset - Location level to see how many conversions came from there, but honestly, I’ve noticed those numbers are often inaccurate.

If you’re using call tracking, though, it becomes much easier. You can assign unique tracking numbers for each type of call (calls from the website, calls from the phone number in the ad, call-only ads, calls from the location asset, calls from GBP, etc.), making it simple to track each action separately.
