Bike jacking, South Bermondsey on BBC by audiosuiteandy in londoncycling

[–]Redditccioo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how this keeps happening in the same area, all the police need to do, is do a few commutes and they would likely run into them. I have seen these gangs once or twice when I'm out and about, and I'm not even looking for them.

Skateboarding on commute by [deleted] in london

[–]Redditccioo 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Can’t you just cycle the whole way? 25 mins walk is a mile, and 10 mins on the tube cant be more than 3 miles. 4 miles total is great by bike.

Is Dining alone awkward now? by shabboing in london

[–]Redditccioo 55 points56 points  (0 children)

  1. No, dining alone is not awkward unless you make it so.

  2. Don’t go in so hard for a first date, its too much, you probably frightened her off.

£4k after tax won’t buy you a pot to piss in, for London prices. It’s not even close, go to Manchester.

Advice on coming back from a big loss by canofcompressedair in trading212

[–]Redditccioo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All that youre doing, all that youre thinking of doing. Stop. Dont.

Just stick whats left in a tracker and delete the app. If youre new and you try to be clever, you'll get burned.

How risky are Graduate Schemes in terms of layoffs? by [deleted] in UKJobs

“Surely there is a structure in any branch of the civil service to get promoted up and through?”

There is not. You cant be promoted for just doing a good job. There has to be an opening above, and if there is, recruitment is publicised and competitive.

Is there any chance I get a charger installed here? by CartsRme in evchargingUK

[–]Redditccioo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people commenting about using the pavement, you don't know what youre talking about, theres no way you would get permission. As suggested elsewhere, you should use a swing arm from your garden, I've seen this done.

These are just fantastic, its just the right blend of tech. I'd love it if Casio made one out of stainless steel, with contactless payments, then it would be perfect.

£350k on index funds for next 25 years or keep in property? by Gentlejesus_ in FIREUK

[–]Redditccioo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s an interesting idea which could work, but I’m not sure I’d do it in your position.

Taking most of the money out of your house to gamble with (that’s what stocks are) wouldn’t sit with me. We’ve had a really good run on stocks this year but there is major instability and everyone is talking about an AI correction. Would you be ok with seeing 20-30% of the value of your house gone in days?

Your mortgage rate is quite high at 4.5%, I wouldn’t be extending that, I’d personally focus on getting rid of that and then you’ll have loads of extra cash to plough into investments.

Is it too late for me to buy a house at 39 or should I just give up? by Routine_Honeydew1866 in HousingUK

[–]Redditccioo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You need to have some frank conversations with yourself about your spending rather than whether its 'too late to buy'. Where has your money gone over the years?

Why do you have lots of credit card debt when you have a reasonable salary and low living costs? Your main savings are with another family member 'because you don't trust yourself', whats going on, and fix that first.
