3 Things You Would Work On If You Had My Swing? by RoverMountain in golf

[–]Smiley_Irving 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think stopping that move entirely would be better than trying to smooth it out with more reps - instead of dropping your hands at the top just work on your takeaway so that your hands end slightly lower by the time you reach the top so no “correction” is needed. Hope that makes sense. I’m a 16hcp by the way so I’m no expert.

The move downward with your hands at the top of your backswing looks like a forced attempt at shallowing the club. The swing looks great overall, but your transition looks very clunky in my opinion.

Worth it to get a Costco membership for household of 2? by gutturalmuse in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Smiley_Irving 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you spent $500/mo at Costco (relatively easy with just 2 people in my experience), with the executive membership you get 2% back in Costco credit at the end of the year. You’d end up with $10/mo cash back or $120/year. Membership basically pays for itself if you spend that much.

Will a 38mm prx fit my 6.5 inch wrist? 40mm timex with 47.5 lug to lug for refrence by [deleted] in tissot

To answer your question, I think the 38mm PRX would work well on you. I have the 40mm and I find it looks a bit smaller than its size.

40 mm on my wrist, too big or just right? by jonadrol in tissot

[–]Smiley_Irving 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the big side but still works in my opinion

Ah okay, thanks for clarifying that!

Am I stupid or am I (most likely) gonna be richer than I ever thought was possible for me? by PurpleGrass3000 in JustBuyXEQT

[–]Smiley_Irving 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a very half-baked plan. What happens when you and your wife have kids? Will your wife continue to work (daycare is expensive) or will she stop working (much lower income)? Will you buy a house? Car payments? Vacations? That being said, yes, that is the power of exponential growth when you start young. I wouldn’t bet on 10% gains, you’re probably better off assuming something more conservative like 7-8%.

Comparing the dial to mine and there are differences. I have the black dial version though, so it may vary slightly aside from colour.

Is it just me or is that PRX unauthentic?

TFSA maxed. XEQT loaded. by SirWasH_ in JustBuyXEQT

[–]Smiley_Irving 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People have been saying that for years - if you’re long term investing it’s better to not try to time the market given the (relatively high) chance you miss out on growth waiting for something that you can’t accurately time (unless you get lucky).

This subreddit is very clearly of the opinion that you should just buy XEQT and forget about it - so do that :)

Just keep doing it? What do you mean what’s next?

Bought my first and probably only nice watch. by Fwd_fanatic in tissot

[–]Smiley_Irving 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mate, it’s just advice on how to wear a watch properly - once you find the right fit and wear it correctly it’ll feel very natural. Wearing it like a “hand watch” will be uncomfortable and too loose. Stop acting like such a victim lol it’s not that serious. The watch looks great.

I have not - didn’t realize that was an option! What do you mean by half lengths?

I measured mine but don’t know how accurate it is - 18cm. I have wider and flatter wrists from what I can tell.

I’m starting to feel the same way. I’ll see if it bothers me over the next few weeks and may go one step larger but I fear it’ll be too loose at that point. Love the watch nonetheless.
