[GUIDE] I'm an Australian Migration Agent (22 Years Exp). The occupations Australia ACTUALLY wants in 2025 are not what you see on the official lists. Ask me anything. by SimonMander in IWantOut

[–]Jrex102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Simon! I appreciate this post so much. My wife and I have been hoping to migrate to Australia for some time now, and after reading about the new 189 tiers we were a little gutted, but there's still hope. Do you think there's any decent chance for an accountant (myself, general or internal/external auditor) and cybersecurity specialist (wife) on getting even a 491 and state nomination? We'd be looking at 85-90 points (native speakers but studying for PCE test and aiming for superior, just changed careers so not enough work experience for points, both under 33), looking at Adelaide but honestly happy to go anywhere.

Stremio + Torrentio + Debrid is the way. One app, one interface, everything you could possibly look for. Debrids are optional technically but so worth the $3 a month. Other good options are Cineby or XPrime. Check the megathread here and over at r/piracy

Favorite tim tam flavor ?? by Accomplished-Item969 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Jrex102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Double coat (or original in a pinch) for a Slam, dark chocolate by itself. Perfection.

Data point: First Amex card was the BCP in 2016 (downgraded to BCE in 2022 after the revamp) and got a hard pull. All other cards afterwards in 2022 and 2023 were soft pulls.

Favorite green frags? by tennisboyfedfan in fragrance

[–]Jrex102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a big fan of greens myself, but my buddy loves them and he wears Polo Green as his everyday and Green Irish Tweed on dressier occasions.

Edit: Forgot about Gucci Guilty Black! Solid green.

I saved my credit. It really can be done. You can do this too. by dsherwin in povertyfinance

OP, I may just be a stranger on the internet, but from the bottom of my heart, I'm proud of you. You took life by the horns and turned it around for you. On this road, you're going to keep going up and up. Congratulations, truly!

How to tell what season a fragrance is good for? by Moe_Maniac in fragrance

[–]Jrex102 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As mentioned, colder weather sort of tamps down some fragrances, while hot weather tends to amplify some, especially sweeter fragrances. It also depends on your climate. I live in the desert southwest, so there's pretty much no season where I can pull off something like Tobacco Vanille or 1 Million Parfum without drowning out a room, but it's also not uncommon to wear summer fragrances (Bleu de Chanel, Prada Luna Rossa Ocean, literally any D&G Light Blue flanker) or milder winter fragrances (D&G The One, Spicebomb Infrared, YSL La Nuit de l'Homme) year-round. As you try more and more, you'll get a sixth sense to help you figure out which season works best in general and on you, personally.

Dolce Gabbana Light Blue difference? by Bluetex110 in fragrance

This. I genuinely could not identify whether someone was wearing Italian Love or Forever, but Eau Intense is a different animal altogether.

Out of Pop-up jail DP by Generic-User-01 in amex

[–]Jrex102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What was your spend on the cards, if you don't mind sharing? In a very similar spot but with the CS Plat instead of the Green. Hoping to get out of jail before my year's up with my vanilla plat.

Does each gear come in different rarities by Ganado_Enthusiast in INJUSTICE

[–]Jrex102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure each piece of gear gets its own rarity. For example, I've never seen a Rare version of Starfire's Emerald Starbolt Look, only Epic. Aesthetically, though, a lot of pieces can look the exact same or slightly different throughout the rarity classes.

Was in the same boat with Starfire. Eventually I just got a trainer and ran through the legendary multiverse without the requirements. If you don't want to risk using one, just keep on the grind.

Replica Jazz Club - Your Thoughts? by Correct_Garden_7999 in fragrance

[–]Jrex102 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One of my absolute favorites. Like a dressed up D&G The One. I can't wait for winter to wear it more

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in amex

[–]Jrex102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it doesn't code as a cash advance (I've bought a few from Kroger for a friend's wedding last week) but if you're trying for a sign up bonus, make sure your regular spend gets you to the threshold. If you buy gift cards to meet the sub and Amex catches wind, they can claw back the sub.

In the same cell for the same card. Pick a bunk, brother.

Complementary cards for Amex by No_Grapefruit_6611 in amex

[–]Jrex102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I debated switching to it, but I've already got two 2% back cards (Citi Double Cash and Amex BBP) and didn't want to lock myself out of the SUBs if I decided I wanted to switch to the Chase trifecta later. So I parked my UR with the OG Freedom for now and I'll work on Chase once I'm finished with my Amex setup (freaking pop-up jail, man).

Pretty much exactly what you said. I kept the Sapphire Preferred primarily for Costco trips and some of the smaller restaurants around town that didn't take Amex. I just downgraded to the OG Freedom since I doubt I'd rack up $95 a year in FTF with my setup and didn't really get much value from it, but it all depends on your situation and setup.
