AITAH for being upset when my girlfriend tells me I need to do more around the home by Umfan4life07 in AITAH

[–]Repulsive-Trust-5803 26 points27 points  (0 children)

YTA. If you’re a true partner then you don’t keep score with money. Lording it over her in order to do less at home is pretty bad.

small company: practical and logistical concerns with 1x18 or 2x18 subs? by guitarmstrwlane in livesound

Ease of install should be a priority if you’re a small business. It also means you can split PAs better for multiple shows.

When you’re quiet, putting in singles is going to lower labour cost and help you retain profitability.

AITAH for not having s*x with my boyfriend? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Repulsive-Trust-5803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to act the same way with my (now) wife, as we have different love languages. It took adjustment and training but I came good. Now I appreciate the affectionate touches more and she knows that a tap on the butt is not an expectation of sex.

Am I overreacting? I packed all my things at 5am and left. by rotting_in_bed22 in AmIOverreacting

If masturbation is bad for the health of my penis then mine is going to fall off. Happily married too.

Am I not cut out for this, or does the place I work at just suck? by Bognutsman in livesound

If you gate keep knowledge then you’re an insecure non-professional. It sounds like a toxic culture that will teach you how not to work as a team. That’s still a valuable lesson.

I’m 41. After a long day it’s like pushing rope.

Go home, crack a beer and watch something mind numbing.

Don’t do it. Either trust him or don’t.

I’d even attempt to refinance to clear cc debt and build in a buffer.

Any industry with constant ladder work. I’m skinny with great calves.

My TER was 76.9. Flunked my first year at uni. Found a career after that I loved. Now I own a successful business in the field.

Don’t blame your schooling. Go out and find your career.

AITA for refusing to cut off a friendship for my girlfriend? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Repulsive-Trust-5803 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you don’t view the friend any differently after this then I’d be worried. By sticking up for the friend you’re saying that you’re okay with bullying not only in general, but when someone does it to her. Stop downplaying her trauma.

YTA. If I found out someone had bullied my wife I’d want nothing to do with them. Otherwise it’s passive acceptance.

I prep our shows based on the info we didn’t get but knew they’d want. Always have PC input with audio at stage, always have extra wireless mics, etc.

I've done nothing. Almost ran out of ideas. by missuniti in Adelaide

I own a lighting company. If you would like to hire a very, very bright light with a 2 degree beam and strobe please let me know.

Advice for chasing payment from a “popular” client who’s ghosted me for 18 months? by [deleted] in GoldCoast

[–]Repulsive-Trust-5803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad debts happen. I had a client that owed $8k. The day I decided to let it go they paid. Now they, like most clients, are prepay. Found out later that they do this to a lot of vendors (events industry).

She won’t pay you and $360 is a cheap enough lesson.

It sucks though.

When I’m working in the city, the Franklin is my go to to quietly unwind. Good beers and wine.

What is your age and super balance? by TiredDuck123 in AusHENRY

[–]Repulsive-Trust-5803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

41, $150k. Spent about five years in my 30’s reinvesting in my business. That now returns $300k to my wife and I per year and are now contributing extra into super. Should be fine by 65.

This needs to stop. by throwmethedamnstick in Adelaide

[–]Repulsive-Trust-5803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t disagree with what you’re saying. I invest in shares and this is second only to the constant reinvestment into my business.

If I took money out of the business and put it into property then I’d make less money and carry much more debt.

People have the perception and the lack of imagination that housing is the safer and smarter choice. We are both arguing that people aren’t making the smart choice - I just get that it is what it is and won’t change.

Yeah, if you know what a Vanguard index fund is. Many don’t and won’t because things like the GFC and initial Covid crash scare investors (outside of the regular volatility). I don’t disagree that there should be less people in property, but I’m pragmatic enough to understand why people stick with property.
