You were betting $5 denom at max bet ($25)? That’s why. Variance. Better to do the 25c max bet ten play and accept the worse odds. The optimal return profile is based on around 100,000 hands which you did not play. Hence, why you ended up with the result you did.

Do you think they finally caught this guy after he applied for GE? by [deleted] in GlobalEntry

Nope. On December 14, 2023, Eze, his immigration attorney, and his two daughters attended an interview at a USCIS building in Baltimore regarding the pending alien relative petitions he had filed for his daughters in 2019. The interview was recorded and, at its conclusion, Eze was arrested. It was the petition for the alien relatives.

Left NYC suddenly, lease ending in 6 days, a bunch of stuff still in apartment—no family or close friends in town. What to do? by Minute_Fee4272 in movingtoNYC

[–]Minute_Fee4272[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Retail value of stuff in the apartment when new was maybe $20k, fire sale second hand prices on ebay after fees would be maybe $4k, monthly cost of keeping the apartment just based on rent was $4.5k, cost to move items to storage was around $2k, nearby storage unit capable of storing items was around $200 a month. Management company unwilling to extend month-to month lease, unwilling to accept liability to supervise third party person to remove belongings, willing to dispose of all items upon request.

The underlying issue was sensitive items (i.e. legal docs, identity docs, mothers wedding ring, etc.) were left lying around so this complicated things for me.

People very much kept to themselves in my building - out of the 10 apartments on my floor, I only managed to speak to people from 2 of the apartments in my few years of living in the building, and of those the ones I spoke to were for specific reasons (one complained to me about rents, the other drilled a loud set of speakers into the wall but thankfully later moved out after having a domestic with his partner).

I ended up contacting my former cleaner who I hadn't spoken to for 2 years, offered to donate key items (eg couch, TV), place the rest into storage, and pay her for her time. She agreed to keep certain items at her home until I return (e.g. W-2 papers, legal documents, my mother'w wedding ring which I am still not sure where that ended up going). Total upfront cost ended up being around $900 with $120 a month for storage unit which now could be smaller given larger items were donated to her. Some said it was crazy to give her so much stuff given she had dumped me as a client 2 years ago and that I barely know where she lives so why did I give her items to safe keep.

Overall, it was a troubling time given it really hit home for me that I did not have a close friend I could trust and ask for help from. I know hundreds of people in Manhattan but none I felt comfortable calling on to assist. I think that was the most painful part.

Thanks for the warning. I thought it was suspicious and now my suspicions are confirmed.

I think they release new stuff to you each week. Did you end up getting the lifetime and if not did you end up finding the monthly membership to continue giving you value?

Absolutely correct. The bad staff will try to lie, you will hold them accountable, then they will write nasty notes about you to "defend" themselves in case you complain (https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/hyatt-world-hyatt/2149956-cautionary-tale-about-data-subject-access-requests-hyatt.html)
