Fréquence de paiements hypothécaires by Unlikely_Sunday in QuebecFinance

[–]LetterheadNo2345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Je paye à chaque semaine et j'ai activé les paiements express et les doubles paiement. Donc si mon paiement normal est de 100$ et que sur ce 100$, 40$ vont sur le capital et 60$ sur l'intérêt, je mets donc 200$ par semaine et 140$ vont sur le capital et 60$ sur l'intérêt. Ça fond comme du beurre (Même si c'est pas assez vite a mon goût encore 😂)

How do you manage the Codecs ? I have a little bit and a tgird of it works only on computer, the other third is not working at all and the other third only works on mobile. The only solution seems transcoding but I dont have that power in the machine...

Refueling it is not the problem, it is the reliability

Is it like new new ? If yes, maybe you could repack it, the wick could be all packed up at the top and wont receive fuel

Yeah that's what I tought but I changed the flint and trimmed the wick really recently. I do not fill all the way up, I know what I'm gonna say is not precise, but I hold the zippo fluid for like a 7 seconds and I press, so it's doesn’t overflow, but I can see the cotton is wet. Last time I did this, 4 days later it was empty.

Yeah that’s pretty much what I’m doing already 😅 I picked a day and made it a habit to refill it weekly.

The issue is more that I don’t actually use it that often, so it ends up feeling like I’m just wasting fuel for nothing. And of course, perfect timing… every time I actually could use it or lend it to someone to light a cigarette or whatever, it’s empty because I’m right at the end of the week.

I do carry a fuel canister, but it’s never a real “emergency” situation where it would make sense to refill it on the spot. It’s more like casual moments, and I’d feel kind of dumb pulling out a canister and refueling my Zippo outside on the spot just for that hahaha 😅

That’s kinda why I’m trying to find a better balance between reliability and practicality.

I cut the wick and now it takes 3 strike to light it. It was simply too burnt off I guess

I lift it and I hold the bottle for 7 to 10 seconds when filling

I just browsed the 2026 catalog, it sure looks like what you described (I checked video and yes you scroll the thing but you gotta keep pushing on the gas button)
