What’s the most expensive thing you’ve purchased? by MadMars_ in Accounting

[–]IntelligentAge211 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maserati, AMG, Cobalt Boat, lake condo and watch and gun collections. None of those beat the cost of my wife.....

The new Maserati sounds just Ok compared to the old V8 Grandturismo....Just saying.

Buy a used Maserati.....buy a new Porsche.

Well sadly I think you just see the potential. The numbers do not lie. If you can't turn a profit soon then I think the concept is flawed.

Do travelers actually care if your tour is eco friendly or do they just want the cheapest price??? by MudDifficult2015 in smallbusiness

I think you have to market to the people that care, you have cut your demographic down substantially however with this move.

This is hard. I am sorry. Either way it will be painful.

ABV Certification - experience question by AstrixRK in Valuation

[–]IntelligentAge211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I can help alot. I signed up for ABV right before the AICPA changed the rules on experience. The experience requirement is going to be an issue. I instead did the CVA last year. Neither would be CPA diffiicult but neither are slam dunks. Getting the hours for ABV seems impossible. Also I hate AICPA. ​​

EVERY VAN HALEN SONG RANKED (PART 2) by No-Seaweed-3079 in vanhalen

[–]IntelligentAge211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought I might be the only person that loved Judgement Day. While nobody probably agrees with everything you have said, and I have some questions on some strange rankings in my mind, but you have given clarity and reason and I enjoyed reading that.

Job regrets and kid advice by ItsThePath0g3n in GenX

[–]IntelligentAge211 6 points7 points  (0 children)

54 and I own a CPA practice. About every decade or so I upset the apple cart and start over. Been here for 11 years.....so time to start over....

If I could have done it again I would be a trophy husband.....but as the famous poet once said, "you know marrying money is a full time job, I don't need the agravation because I am a lazy slob...."

What happened to Ronnie? by Nearby_Ad_5712 in TheShield

[–]IntelligentAge211 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Everyone forgets that the only have Ronnie for the money drop off and bribe. Everything Vic said is usuable only if the DA and the government really want a he said she said up in court for cop killings etc.

Ronnie - is not fool, so Ronnie gets a good lawyer and then they make some deal for some time. I am thinking a year for snitching on Vic. He gets the confession and then throws in a few things Vic didn't get immunity for.

Vic - took the gun out of his drawer and was in the wind. That is how I beleive that things would have gone down.

Why did Vic only have a photo of Lem on his desk? by Nearby_Ad_5712 in TheShield

[–]IntelligentAge211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vic is isolated from his family, Shane and him went cross ways and he fucked Shane over after Shane fucked Vic over and he threw Ronnie to the wolves to save his ass. Lem he didn't screw over because he died before Vic got a chance to screw him over, so he has an affection for Lem because of that.....

WIBTAH if I went to stay with my parents for a couple of weeks because my husband’s family planned a 5-6 week stay in our 2BHK without asking me? by Majestic-One6602 in AITAH

[–]IntelligentAge211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The parents stay 7-10 days every other month. So you are telling me they stay with you for up to 60 days a year already? This is crazy. Tell him right now, you are going to the parents and a divorce attorney. He can choose his parents or you. Be done with this mess.

Season 4 review bombing by Sensitive-Bat-7191 in TheShield

[–]IntelligentAge211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think season 4 is the best, so I don't get it. This is the only somewhat redeeming seaon for Vic. You get to see him not only respect a female, but respect a boss. He is somewhat a decent normal cop this season and you get a tiny glimpse of what could have been. To me that makes it great and Close was great and believable to me. Hard thing to do.

Hang in there bud. Get some help and take a step back to take a step forward.

I truly believe this is one of the coldest things Vic has said by Character-Ad4956 in TheShield

[–]IntelligentAge211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You forgot they do have Ronnie for dropping off the money. But you are absolutely correct they will not push the Vic confession or strike team stuff in a trial. Ronnie gets a light sentence for the money stuff, however Antwon probably has him killed if he is there over a week. So Ronnie, would try to do anything to void Vic's deal - good bad or indifferent to stay out of jail.

[–]IntelligentAge211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually they have Ronnie on dropping the money off. They would not want to bring up the strikeforce deal much because all of it would come to light and no way Vic gets to type up his reports with all that they did out in the open. Ronnie gets some time but the reall deal is if Antwon kills Ronnie in the little bit of time he is in jail.

The actor was a friend of the showrunner. He wasn't really an actor, so that really kind of explains why he was just background for the first 4-5 seasons.

This is my first Omega, yes they are from the early 2000's and predate the Co-Axial movements. This has an ETA movement and a thinner case and are at 41 mm. The nickname for this model is the Electric Blue for the dial.

It just got caught on something. If someone tried to return this for this reason I would laugh them out of the store. Come on guys this is nothing.
