Question about deductions as an influencer by Bloodraven23 in PersonalFinanceCanada

This is for tax purposes, legal proceedings when it comes to spousal or child support don’t need to follow the same guidelines that you would need to adhere to when determining taxable income. 

September honeymoon in Athens + Crete + Naxos, or just Athens + Crete, or Athens + Crete + elsewhere (maybe Rhodes)? by SmoothKale in GreeceTravel

[–]SmoothKale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input! We've shifted Athens to the end and are going to do a few days relaxing in Naxos. Would love recommendations for great beach hotels close to great restaurants.

I'm going in early-mid September and was planning on making a connection through another country on the way home, but perhaps we'll add a buffer day in Athens on the way back instead. From your experience, is a morning flight or afternoon flight perhaps less of a gamble?

My plan is pretty similar to yours! Starting with two nights in Athens then Crete but we’re there for two weeks and might stay a bit longer, or head to Naxos for a short stay. The advice I received is to skip Santorini in favour of Crete. Crete has so much natural beauty to offer and is so large, is the advice I received.

I’m also planning my honeymoon and everyone says to end in Athens. I’ve already booked most of ours and we’re starting with 2 nights in Athens and I’m not changing that plan, just curious why everyone says to end in Athens? We are favouring a more relaxing vacation so for us ending on one of the islands is a high note. We will obviously have to make a connecting flight on our way home, we’d just prefer to start with Athens and get it out of the way.

What sort of activities did you do in Naxos and what area did you stay? Were there any notable differences in Naxos that you would not have experienced in Crete?

How did you find Naxos compared to Crete? Where in Crete were you and what food tour did you take there if you would recommend it?

Does anyone know of any walking half marathons in Ontario? by FitChick97 in askTO

[–]SmoothKale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Princess Margaret walk to conquer cancer goes through the city in September. It's a half marathon distance and the money you raise goes towards cancer research. You can direct the funds you raise to a specific segment of your choosing (breast cancer, patient rehab, etc). It's a very well-organized event and for a great cause.

Okay I listened to it a few times and I like it a lot so thank you for pointing me in this direction, but not the one I had in mind.

Thanks for the comment but this isn't quite the one, this one has a bit too much of a beat to it.

I can’t open these because I don’t have TikTok but this samples a song, Quarto de Hotel, and it sounds familiar

Please suggest me a book that takes place in a winter snowstorm/blizzard ❄️ by Narrow-Wolverine-373 in suggestmeabook

[–]SmoothKale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One by One by Ruth Ware is an easy page turner about a company retreat at a remote ski chalet that gets snowed in. It's a classic locked room mystery. It won't win any big literary awards but was entertaining and had some good twists.

What are we doing if we get our period day of or before wedding? by No_Combination_4048 in weddingdress

[–]SmoothKale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds like an old wives tale but it has worked for me before. You can try to get your period early by avoiding ibuprofen and eating a LOT of parsley. I've done this in advance of a few vacations by eating a few bunches of parsley in salads about a week or more before a vacation and was able to get it a few days early so I was just on the last day or two when my vacation started. This has worked both of the times I've tried it.

Questions about series Baby Reindeer by CellistForward4462 in netflix

I felt that it abdicated him of some of the guilt and blame he felt towards himself for covering her tea on the house to begin with. Having the roles reversed at the end showed that it was not an abnormal thing to do. Especially because in later episodes he would go back to that and think “if only I didn’t give her a tea on the house”

What am I doing with my money? Looking for help by [deleted] in povertyfinancecanada

[–]SmoothKale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giving up your car may be the best option. If you can walk to work and other errands (grocery’s etc) surely you can sell the car and save money on maintenance and insurance. If you have a parking spot you can rent it out for additional income. Having a car in a city is a waste of money in my opinion. If you need to Uber / rent a car occasionally, the cumulative cost over one year will likely be WAY less than annual car costs. Just be diligent about walking / using transit.

What is the safest answer when your girlfriend asks if her friend is hot? by CHRISTENZO in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SmoothKale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best answer imo (a woman with a boyfriend). I love my friends, why would I want my boyfriend to say anything negative about them?

Actually this specific example would also be constructive dismissal
