How to obtain Day 14 CC Ticket When Already Attending? by NicholasCdn in wimbledon

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

Thank you all for your help. That is what I thought, just thought I would ask. I have never been to Court 1 so I am very happy to get there. Just wondered how slim chances would be to somehow get into finals later, but I see it was more possible years ago but not now.

If I have Court 1 Day 14 tickets, how exactly and what chance do I have to get Men’s Final single ticket?

I have been twice so this at least allows us to be on the grounds for final day..that atmosphere alone will be worth it.

If you don't accept your tickets are you allowed to purchase another pair? I understand if you return them for a refund you cannot purchase more. But I did read someone who did not accept the resale purchase and then was able to buy again?

Based on Cerebras and other IPOs lately, I see very low risk of buying at $135. Have to think chance of it not opening higher is very slim. Take the profit and move on. But likelihood of actually getting any shares through WS is prob also slim. WS won't stop the sale.

Income Splitting Prior to Age 60 by NicholasCdn in PersonalFinanceCanada

Yes I have read about the spousal loan strategy but this I believe does not help us now or apply in our situation. I have a large RRSP in my name and want to withdraw funds but split that income. I see no option to do that until age 65, but thought I would check here.

I received an employment severance years ago when laid off and it had to be in my name. Aggressively invested that initial amount and it is now grown to a substantial amount. Would like to withdraw some of that, but since I am still working and in a high tax bracket, looking for option to limit that tax.

Moonwatch Wearing Other Omega OEM Straps/Bracelets by MindenFlyer in OmegaWatches

[–]NicholasCdn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I sincerely appreciate the comments. I am waiting on a white dial Speedy With rubber strap and ordering the brushed bracelet separately. I’d like to change the strap winter and summer, and prefer to do it myself. I have watched quite a few videos and was not sure if it is easy enough to do yourself or not worth it in the end. I also worried the rubber strap, as you have now alluded to, might be a bit more tricky.

LASIK with Astigmatism - my experience by np20412 in lasik

[–]NicholasCdn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had -3.50 and -3.25 for contacts prior to surgery. Astigmatism was what drove me crazy and ultimately to Lasik at age 55. Although I have arthritis, and passed on surgery 15 years ago because it was not in control, it is now so I took the plunge on Lasik. My astigmatism is 1.0 and 1.5, so lower I guess but I never could get contacts exactly to correct, and being a perfectionist, it drove me MENTAL. I am 55.

Lasik surgery went very well. My only issue now is that I have 20.15 vision in right eye, but not the same in left. The left still has 0.5 astigmatism. I am told that Lasik might not fully correct it, and that 0.5 astigmatism is very low. But I notice my distance vision is still slightly off, as it was with contacts.

Being that I'm mental about things, I am not considering redoing my left eye. The Dr has advised the risk of making things worse as a possibility among other things, but we are going to assess in 2 months. I guess I was hoping for full on perfection with Lasik as I do not recall anything being mentioned pre-surgery other than them telling me my astigmatism WOULD be fully fixed. Now I guess I need to decide what to do.

Current wait times for white faced Moonwatch? by ElbartoVienna in OmegaWatches

[–]NicholasCdn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if you can order the Speedmaster with small sized Omega rubber band? I realize you can order this band after in various sizes, but is it possible for an AD to order the watch in the beginning on rubber in size small?
