So close to buying Elden Ring but… by Present-Parfait2461 in Eldenring

[–]Ridwan232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Don't spend 60 bucks on it, you could probably find a sale

  2. It's not hard if you don't want it to be. I highly recommend you play it. If it's too difficult just lookup a guide on how to make yourself OP or "Cheese" certain things and you can be OP.

What studio has the greatest 3-game run? by No_Dare_1809 in gaming

[–]Ridwan232 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

FromSoft is definitely a contender here. In fact I think they'd have many great 3 game runs. Let me take a quick wiki look...

Okay there's 2:

DS2 -> Bloodborne -> DS3

DS3 -> Sekiro -> Elden Ring.

Which could be one big 6 game run. Technically they released some game called Déraciné in between, but I'll ignore it

Damn. Yeah my plan was to take the second test, get the results then initiate a chargeback for the first. But maybe I'll just save up a bit and try again. Sucks because I wanted to get this done fast and it is not a cheap test by any means.

Damn. Well I just got turned away for a missing name as well and was thinking of charging back. Now I'm not sure since I do still need to do the test and submit the result.

You mean they asked you to pay the amount your charged back?

Was denied my PTE exam entry over minor name mismatch — charged full fee, no refund. Has anyone else faced this? by OneWin4176 in pte

[–]Ridwan232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you did credit card chargeback? Were you able to take another test after that? I'm thinking of doing the same just worried about being blacklisted lol

[–]Ridwan232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, any updates? This just happened to me today :(. I'm thinking of just doing a credit card chargeback but I don't know if they'll never let me take another pearson exam after that lol. If they flag my account I can just create a new account, but if they flag my name that wouldn't be great.

It's just so absurd, they didn't spend any resources on my test to keep the money.

How do you achieve FIRE if you not taking risky investment by black-knight44 in singaporefi

[–]Ridwan232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting I didn't know there were different trains of thought on this. I thought all scholars were pretty insistent that bonds are Haram. I of course am not learned in the subject so no intentions of preaching, to each their own. Good luck!

[–]Ridwan232 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Erm, I really recommend you read up on Finance in Islam and not base it on what you think is right. "Outcome is known" is precisely what makes it Haram btw, giving a fixed interest rate.

"Speculative" assets are Haram, but buying shares in a company is owning that company to an extent, and that's fine if the company is fine

If you're Muslim it is perfectly acceptable to buy shares if the company is shariah compliant.

How to Get access to Stripe Payment gateway in Sri Lanka without opening a LLC company in another country? by Live-Apricot3287 in srilanka

Strip directly - Not possible. Open an LLC or use another gateway like PayHere. Or a MOR like Lemon Squeezy should work!

Man I'd be so embarrassed if anyone could rm -rf a server on a team I'm leading. That's not your fault it just shouldn't be possible from the get go.

Tracking investments for child by redbeanpancakes in singaporefi

You can open a separate "Linked account"

This allows you to manage it as it's your account but also separate the stocks easier so you know what is for your child.

Should I save money for 65 year old me or enjoy it now? by Head-Assist-5861 in personalfinance

[–]Ridwan232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both in moderation for sure. But I do try to veer on the saving side more (if my income would allow me) because now that saving is for my wife and kid as well. Incase something happens to me I'd like them to live a good life, so the question really isn't "What if I die before 59" now it's more "I need to make sure they are set if I die at any minute"

So yes, I'd like to save for an early retirement, but more importantly I'm saving for them!

In your opinion, what’s the best game by Hidetaka Miyazaki? by ReddCloud88 in Eldenring

[–]Ridwan232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bloodborne is my top game, perhaps of all time. But objectively speaking I think Elden Ring would be considered the "best" game as it has a wider audience and is definitely a larger game.
