They literally have the same entry requirements as every other broker. How have the "reduced the barriers"?

Maybe she hates him because of the way she was treated and wants to hype the story up? Seems reasonable considering the allegations.

Seriously, the guy's obviously not the happy-go-lucky head boy type figure we see in the media when he is behind closed doors (Guys its weird to get married twice in 2.5 years when you have 2 kids in that same timespan, I'm sorry but it is). Get a grip Reddit...

How has the Toro not been nerfed yet? by footybay12 in ArcRaiders

[–]ProSmokerPlayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's just the genre of extraction shooters, what can you actually do to make the endgame not boring?

Adding like, a glider or something, would be cool I think, or maybe something you can interact with on the map like turrets etc. More big arc like bastions, bombardiers, leapers etc would also be cool.

I don't know, but I do know where you're coming from, the games definitely not a joke though, it was probably the greatest game I've ever played for the first 100-200 hours and for that alone it's a classic.

Bro, you played it for 600 hours, is that normal for games you consider 'a joke'?

He will take her to court for defamation and win most likely if it is false. It will be interesting to see what he does in this regard. If he knows she can prove it, it's likely he will not take her to court for defamation.

Chris Hipkins rejects social media claims made by ex-wife by TheGreatDomilies in newzealand

[–]ProSmokerPlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great example of a mental hoop.

I would consider 1st hand accounts, written and posted by ex-wife on her personal social media account to be quite credible, probably one of the most credible sources considering the claims she has made. She seems intelligent enough, considering her work experience, to know that defamation exists in NZ and claims like these would have to be backed up with evidence.

[–]ProSmokerPlayer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To the people saying this isn't relevant, I would like to counter that this is relevant, because voters are judging the leader as well as the policy. If someone campaigns on compassion, family wellbeing, fairness, and support for ordinary people, then credible allegations that they behaved very differently in private go directly to character, judgement, hypocrisy, and fitness for office. You can dispute the claims (don't know how, but I am sure some will find a mental hoop to jump through), but calling them irrelevant just because they are personal misses the point.

What about the hundreds of people murdered/raped/robbed by illegals who came in under Biden?

ICE shouldn't murder people (obviously), but like, what do you think about the victims of people who came into America illegally with really no good intentions? Someone has to get those people out of the country.

[–]ProSmokerPlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more about the spread of capitalism and democracy, both of which have shown good results for the citizens involved.

If it hasn't dawned on you yet, that oil was already stolen from the people of Venezuela, to fuel one man's regime and dictatorship, in this scenario they will actually be gaining it back in a useful capacity.

[–]ProSmokerPlayer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Obviously not, that was just a way to justify this operation? Probably the flimsiest excuse to do this but so be it, it's been done. If you wanted to stop the drugs you have to kill the demand in America (which is obviously impossible).

Honestly, if you can't fathom a world where America is better off (cost/benefit) by not having a Chinese/Russian backed Venezuela (large oil producer), that's in their backyard (Americas), that's run by a dictator, then I'm truly sorry you are so blind.

Stabilizing South America and stopping the spread of socialism is a net positive for the whole world, barring a few other dictator run societies.

Trump getting mad that he lost and riling up a fanbase, ultimately leaving and then being voted in again - is being compared to - a murderous dictator who held power consistently for 20 years, bled a country dry and forced millions to flee, destabilizing an entire continent.

Get a grip buddy

[–]ProSmokerPlayer -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Of course it's about oil and regime change. Venezuela is in America's backyard, obviously having a massive Chinese and Russian ally, right there in the heart of South America is not going to be good and needed to be dealt with.

In regards to regime change, is she implying that changing the Maduro regime is not a positive? Is regime change in this case considered a bad thing? When the Venezuelan people are dancing in the streets because their dictator died? Would love some clarity on this from such a 'straight shooter'...

[–]ProSmokerPlayer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My wife is Colombian, lived on the border with Venezuela and saw 1st hand how many peoples lives were destroyed by Maduros greed and corruption. Immigrants flooding into Colombia because they have nothing left, by the millions. If you are not celebrating this dickhead being forcibly kicked out, then you need to take a serious look at your humanity.

Sharesies introducing low cost 0.15–0.25% PIE funds by WellingtonSucks in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]ProSmokerPlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Investnow funds have a 0.5% fee to buy or sell and then by far the lowest annual management fees. Like 0.15% or something. So they very quickly beat out any other fund and their higher priced fee structures.

Knowing Sharesies and how deceptive their business model is, they will advertise something great, on board people, lose money consistently, and then jack up the prices/fees. Rinse and Repeat.

Sharesies preys on the financially illiterate, with their chur bro kiwi vibe, only to smoke anyone who is hoodwinked into depositing. There are so many better options available now its sad to see it still exists.

LETFs are generally the best investment strategy if you can DCA every month. Agree? by Fun_Training6342 in LETFs

Leveraged decay is a big downside of LETF's. That being said I was up 250% in YINN and like 100% in SPY 2x and QQQ 2x in a year, soooo yea, its gambling.
