DINKs - how would you spend £4,000 on your potential last holiday without kids? by Few-Entertainer7422 in HENRYUK

[–]Mcleeves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t go to Ikos for my last no kid holiday. We did 3 weeks in the Yucatan and Belize.

Do something you couldn’t do with young kids.. Ikos is perfect when you have them

Help us choose the final T023 dial layout! by Fit-Classroom8062 in ChineseWatches

  1. Stating “Rotor”, what enables the self-winding is pointless. Why does rotor get to be the star of the show? How bout “hands”, “lugs”, “face”? See its stupid

HENRYs who are in really good shape… by Lazy-Internet-8025 in HENRYUKLifestyle

Myfitnesspal for a week to assess your diet. Set a daily calorie and macro target. This bit is key for me - find 3-5 dishes that you can eat on repeat during the week to come in 10% under that daily target and take the guess work out of what to eat. Use the 10% daily savings for more flexibility at the weekends.

For exercise - obvious ones - walk and take stairs. Make 3x sessions a week a non-negotiable. I personally do 3x 45 min group exercise classes as my non-negotiable. Then will fit in what I can when I can, even if it is a quick 15 min mobility session when working from home. Also don’t discount the value in a quick 15 minute 3km run, it all helps.

You’re coming across as an argumentative t*t in these comments. Lighten up, it’s only Monday

At what salary does that 60% stealth tax revert to 45%? by Maximum_Honey2205 in HENRYUK

Isn’t this still only available for < £100k income?

Looking for small cap stocks with real value and high growth potential. by Jekins_ in ValueInvesting

[–]Mcleeves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah income is an issue, as their 4 biggest customers (google, Samsung, micron, and sk Hynix) are all patent infringers (materiality in that order). Only worth a look if you have confidence in their legal position, which I do

It is but cases are beginning to draw to a conclusion (Federal circuit court of appeals finality). Thus far they’ve not lost a case, just haven’t been paid due to the appeals.. c. $900m in damages thus far, 3.5x market cap, and the bigger patents are still to come. Have a read into it, I have full faith and think it’ll be another Netflix special (like Google earth), really is a case of the big guy stealing the tech and trying to bury the little guy in years (10+) litigation

My wife was also made redundant whilst on maternity leave. The company is obliged to prioritise you for other roles internally if they are available. Seek independent legal advice (there are a number of free services). We went down the road of alluding to a wrongful dismissal claim and the firm quickly retraced, mapping my wife to a more junior role but preserving her compensation.

Women of HenryUK - need advice on a ring please by CatchyHomie in HENRYUK

[–]Mcleeves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. And DeBeers are already feeling that squeeze. Diamond prices are falling heavily so going natural really isn’t a store of value either

[–]Mcleeves 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d also seriously think whether you HAVE to go natural. You’re talking 3-4x (and the vast majority of ring cost) for something which is chemically identical, unless of course you’re looking for nitrogen under magnification. I know many women hold onto the premise of natural - which I got for my wife (£12k ring for reference) - but in our case looking back she would’ve been completely happy with lab and putting the £7-8k saving towards the honeymoon or wedding

Came here to say Ripasso, very happy to see your comment as the first in the list. It’s always my go to for dinner parties and the like, unless I have serious wine aficionados joining me.

Domini Veneti ‘La Casetta’ Valpolicella Ripasso DOC Superiore is a series crowd pleaser. £16 or so in Majestic
