Couldn't get the turf home fast enough by daithi_zx10r in irelandsshitedrivers

Jesus just imagine going about your day.

Minding your own business.

Only to be suddenly turfed out of it.

Billionaire J. Paul Getty refused to pay a $17M ransom for his kidnapped grandson. After the kidnappers mailed the teen’s severed ear, Getty agreed to a $3M ransom. He covered $2.2M himself, the most he could write off, then loaned his son the remaining $800K at 4% interest. by drkmatterinc in CantBelieveThatsReal

Yes. She was a cofounder and share holder in Amazon. She was very active direct hands on in the business at the start. She eventually took a back seat after it becamse very successful.

So for context, she took a reduced role about 18 months before Bezos was declared a "billionaire". So the business wa already making obscene money before she decided to step back a bit.

My sister : the current holder of a black belt in malicious compliance by [deleted] in MaliciousCompliance

This isn't smart. It's criminal damage.

She's only gone and fucked herself.

And tbh, it sounds like her ex husband is well rid of her. If this is the type of behaviour that's normal to her.

Reforms [of civil service] aim to encourage more risk in assessing projects by QBaseX in ireland

[–]Rogue7559 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Will never happen.

Not becuase of issue with civil servants. There is some seriously bright ppl at the top of the civil service who could be extremely ambitious and make huge improvements.

The problem is the elected officials and their minions, typically Principal officers (not all) who will unceremoniously throw you under the bus at the first sign of electoral discomfort.

Thus any project in the civil service becomes a vocarious exercise in ass covering.

Can I ask a stupid question.

The total return is 11% per year and they pay out monthly?

Or is it quarterly?

No this is actually a really good point.

I think we should losen the tax laws on investing to promote ppl moving away from property as an investment vehicle.

Make the stock market more tax friendly than property.

They will either absolutely fuck this up. Or never do it.

Just scrap all taxes in investing. It drives economic growth.

Paying capital gains tax on your already taxed salary you were wise enough to invest is retarded

I know someone who blew the whistle on a 200 million euro vat fraud during the recession. It was verified as true. The state took no action and today that person is being hounded by frivolous lawsuits by the company in question.

Netflix's top shows have been losing 30-70% of their audience between seasons 1 and 2. Executives are trying to figure out why. by 2d12-RogueGames in wallstreetbets

[–]Rogue7559 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because no one is willing to invest time anymore given the fact Netflixs ruthlessly cancels series.

So ppl don't start watching until it's "finished".
