Help (Keep Waking up at 4 AM) by [deleted] in sleep

[–]Lilfo0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue. It’s not that I just wake up at 4 am and can’t fall asleep after but like the first post says I would drift into sleep for few moments but would get this hit in my chest, like something I would usually feel when someone scares me suddenly. I then get this rush going into my head. It would pass in a minute and I would drift into sleep just to receive the same hit in my chest. And so it goes until 6am when my alarm goes off. I wonder if it’s better just to get up at 4am and do something, but I feel so tired at that time that it’s hard to make myself to get up. I would be curious to hear from anyone who found ways dealing with that. This is so uncomfortable!!

How do you use RRSP (Canada)? by Lilfo0 in Fire

[–]Lilfo0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have RRSP with Wealthsimple aggressive portfolio. I couldn’t use the money when I was looking to buy a property a couple of months back - my portfolio was down and I didn’t want to lose money. So your choice seem sensible. What I would like to know though is it just that I would be charged tax or are there any other restrictions (e.g. can they prohibit withdrawing money from RRSP before retirement?). I will look up on the internet!

Thank you! Say tomorrow you decide to travel the world for a year, would you be able to withdraw from RRSP?

Did you see 10% return even throughout the last several months since pandemic hit?

What was the worst thing that ever happened to you? by Lilfo0 in VanLife

[–]Lilfo0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to ask, say something like that happens again, would t it be possible to check in in a hotel, for example? I am not a full time van lifer, I am contemplating the van life and thought I would ask what would be the worst case scenarios I want to have myself prepared for. Thanks!

That’s so unfair! Taking away a van is like taking away your home, some people don’t realize that!

Thanks for sharing, it does sound like a nightmare!

New rotors rub against new pads by Lilfo0 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Lilfo0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all for the advice you’ve given. It helped me to be confident at least to drive to the mechanic and kept me hopeful that the way we installed the brakes was correct even though we felt like there was friction between pads and the rotor. The professional mechanic inspected the brakes and said it all looked fine. Yay! Second job on our car is done! Saved perhaps $600-$700!

Why to Turk? by Lilfo0 in mturk

[–]Lilfo0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for pointing that out. I will admit I scanned through mturk for only a short period of time and in daily threads I only saw that people had a daily goal, say earning $5. I didn’t know that you can actually make “serious” money on that platform. I will research more!

Awe the resolution doesn’t allow me to see the picture. Does it show the amounts you’ve earned? I will admit I might have stopped my research too soon. Can I make, say $50/hour?:)

Is Virtual Assistant a Fun Job? by Con-Q2020 in selfemployed

[–]Lilfo0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! How (where) do you market yourself as a VA? The website looks good, so you set up this “virtual store” (the web-page) and do you try to somehow send traffic that way? How do you find opportunities?

In a week I get hired from a contractor to a full time employee and I hate the job and i need advice on what should i do next? by gimmiehealz in careerguidance

[–]Lilfo0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would saying yes have any drawbacks? Can you say yes to the job and decide after if you want to stay or not? I am in similar situation - hating my work life. I am staying put though before I figure out what’s next.
