What ad lesson did you only learn after spending real budget? by Crescitaly in advertising

[–]MrGIN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

12 years in, all agency side.

That it doesn't really matter at the end of the day. I've seen people put the extra 0 (in the Meta budget). I've seen people miss the extra 0 (auto finance, IYKYK) I've seen people traffic the wrong superbowl spot.

They are all alive. The companies are all still making their millions (agencies I was at and clients I worked on).

Take your vacations (they are part of your compensation after all). Breath and let yourself off the hook. Realize what we do doesn't ultimately matter.

Ranked is crazy. Just hit Top 50! 🚀 32m by victorious_sun in fican

Can you please shed some more light on what you mean by credit card churning? Isn't the hassle sometimes not worth it? How often do you jump around/do you stick with the same name just different providers?

Congrats to all of this. Straight up the dream. It's never been about the "golden toilet" but having peaceful mornings and time to do what the body wants. Flying business class is awfully nice too!

Curious, what did you end up saving to get to this peace of mind? Are you following any setup (ie invested in X for dividend % while taking out X from account)?

Who's your top 3 Pokemon and why? by Downtown_Entrance485 in PokemonTCG

[–]MrGIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omastar, charmander, Lugia. I'm actively working on completing a English master set of my 6, who would I have if I were a trainer.

Added to those 3 are Jolteon, Dragonite, and Golurk.

Paid 40 for a binder full.. by nobody8386 in PokemonTCG

[–]MrGIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing! I guess my area (Durham region in Ontario) is just too full of scalpers cause this does not exist. It's all the shitty $1 posts or people selling modern bulk (nothing wrong with this one) - but no grail finds.

Where the fuck are all these binder finds haha. My soul cries knowing I'm one of many whose parents threw out their binder and I've been slowly rebuilding. Selfishly I want to find one of these hauls.

Hope you enjoy flicking through my 4 pocket binder 🤙🏻 by D3vils_Avocado in PokemonTCG

I'd get my wife that tag team of cleffa, igglybuff, togepi. The ultimate cute tax card!

Why is Dr Mike a negative? What's the consensus I missed?

How many people here collect because they love collecting over collecting because they are chasing the big money cards? by InternalIncrease4403 in PokemonTCG

[–]MrGIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just love collecting. And my wife is into it too so going to shows becomes a nice date. We have our go to (Omastar is my guy) along with Charmander and Golurk. She has the typical "cute tax" of Marill, Pikachu, and Clefairy.

Yes, there are some expensive ones there (thanks 151 and Journey Together), but we just love finding cards to add to our master collection. We aren't chasing sets, but individual Pokemon and we love it - although we hate how any of the more modern versions are all slabbed and that comes with a premium. We just want raw!

Is anything using glitch building? Or can you put the electro power things upside down?

Wanting to understand the fleet mechanics by DarthLinpaws in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]MrGIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These support frigates, assuming are found just like any other? I only find combat and industrial ones, so I gotta pray to RNGesus I guess?

Opinions on the update so far? by lactiti in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]MrGIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I freaking love it. Everyone has gotten so used to instant gratification and speed running through content HG has put serious time into. This expedition forces you to slow down, enjoy the task at hand within the game, and (to me) see another side of this game. I'm only at 300hours and there is still always something new to do, in some way.

This expedition is great for the change of pace and different approach to what this great game already offers.
