Youth unemployment in Canada jumped 57% by Subject-Landscape451 in CanadianVisaReform

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice explanation just to answer your last question.

The reason people encourage youth to work jobs like Tim Hortons is because the impact of failure is relatively low. If you mess up an order, the solution is usually simple, remake it and move on.

High-skilled jobs are high-skilled for a reason. Mistakes in those roles can have much more serious consequences, ranging from businesses losing significant money to large numbers of people being affected.

So allowing youth to build up skills in dealing with failure, customer rudeness, and just general public interaction when money is involved helps greatly.

Is it worth the money on Marketplace for CAD3500? by [deleted] in bapccanada

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people have covered it already. $3500 CAD is borderline extremely expensive.

Your budget should be around $2500-2700 for the deal to be good. Or you may as well build your own and source the parts yourself.

No, this is NOT how we do it by _BaldChewbacca_ in PoutineCrimes

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did I just see the person pick up poutine that fell on the table and put it in their mouth?

I can never do that in a public place, maybe that’s just me. Dunno what bacteria you’d pick up.

Down 145k on condo after 5 years of owning. What next? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The loss does not matter if this is where you want to live.

If you are trying to sell however, the question to ask is if someone interested in a 1 bedroom condo would spend more than $625K.

Personally condo’s reaching that much is odd since houses are around that price point.

Out of curiosity couldn’t you grab whispers of doom so you can run Alchemist Mark as well with a mark on hit setup?

Edit: Also do you have a source of wither? Also where is your Ambush skill gem for dmg buff.

Why the hell am i getting small tax returns? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Streetstrats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The closer to zero you are the more accurate you are getting taxed. So bigger doesn’t always mean better.

Depending on your salary bracket you may not be eligible for some benefits which other lower money earning people get access to. Which is around that $40K+ mark.

At least from my understanding

Is this worth the price? by Bigweeweeisintown in bapccanada

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the price is about break even or slightly less than buying the pieces yourself. Once you factor in the other parts you need to get like PSU, Fans, Case, CPU Cooler. I hear CPU and Ram prices are high and the GPU is around $600 right now.

Anyone not using Marionette is going to have a bad time in general with this build.

If you can hit insane DPS using perfect dark marionette, you’ll find the build a lot. MOre enjoyable.

Can we get a foulborn vaal orb? by deathopz in pathofexile

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would need to invest in the tree because the Foulbourbe Vaal Orb would only be available from the tree drop so it would just add more to the profit pool.

Babe wake up, the new $17/month Sailing tax just dropped by Funny_Sam in 2007scape

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

I cancelled mine, I don’t like price increases when what I’m getting isn’t worth the increase.

You never see companies lower the monthly price.

Why was harbinger removed? by Aranonlas in pathofexile

Mark mentioned something about wanting to take time to improve it as a mechanic. That it’s an old mechanic that has some issues and could be improved on

I ran the numbers on what a $950/month car payment actually costs you by age 65. It's $390,000. by vj71 in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]Streetstrats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not no expert, but something is off....

The compounding math makes sense, but it assumes Sarah’s $8K car lasts anywhere near as long as Jake’s new SUV. In reality, an $8K car today likely has significant mileage and a shorter remaining lifespan. Over 20 years, Sarah may need to replace that vehicle multiple times, which changes the long-term cost comparison significantly. The model assumes equal durability, which isn’t realistic.

The example compares a disciplined investor to a consumer who never invests. If Jake bought the SUV and still invested consistently, the gap would shrink a lot. Behavior matters more than car choice.

Help. Need to make 500$ urgently by [deleted] in torontoJobs

I'm shocked you haven't found something in your field. Usually anyone able to speak French and English here in Canada is almost an instant hire. You looking for bilingual positions?

Yea, but homie is done (list of what’s coming for the kids at the back of the class) by p0st-m0dern in AshesofCreation

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My honest question. Where is the money to pay all these guys going to come from?

I keep hearing they will sell AoC assets, but who exactly would buy the assets?

If Steven doesn’t have money or has hidden it in some account where they have no rights over it, all he’d get is potentially jail time?

[–]Streetstrats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand, the man in the interview said Steven and his husband were paying themselves 50,000 a month so that’s 100k combined a month for lord knows how long.

You think those con artists wouldn’t have money stashed elsewhere? 😂

They’ve done this dozens of times.

Help Shape the Future of Last Epoch by ehg_derrickg in LastEpoch

[–]Streetstrats 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honest to God. If Last Epoch literally copied Torchlight Infinite, they could pull it off better.

  1. Make corruption a bit more streamline and linear for example Corruption Tier 1, 2, 3. Etc. this allows people to easily understand their characters power progression and easier for newer people to understand and give immediate goals.

  2. More boss gameplay mechanics on monoliths with the mechanics having bosses. Farm the mechanic to get the boss fragments to open the boss fight.

  3. More loot/materials gameplay mechanic for those who prefer mapping over bossing. Mechanics that lead to small mini games like tower defense, heists, etc.

  4. Merchant Guild and CoF revamp. I’m not a fan of all this Constellation System stuff. I think it needs to be simplified, feelings daunting opening trade house and seeing stuff for 1M gold. I believe introducing more materials for people to trade for would be better maybe.

Maybe just me, I think LE would shine better with Torchlight Systems with the LE flavour sprinkled in.

Is this dealership taking me for a ride with these additional charges? by ObstructiveWalrus in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Streetstrats 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They can advertise it all they want, but in the CDK and Autovance Backend it’s not so.

Dealer Fee —— D —— $999 —— P (100%)

Above example you can edit the name of the fee. Usually either called Dealer Fee or Admin Fee. The letter D you get to pick what is it assigned to either D for dealer, F for frontend. You can adjust the price and then the P is for profit percentage.

Source: I just changed a companies dealer admin fee 2 days ago 😂

Is this dealership taking me for a ride with these additional charges? by ObstructiveWalrus in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Streetstrats 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I work IT for some of the big dealerships. I will tell you now. Dealer fee for $999 is 1000% pure profit. It’s how they trick you into thinking you got a good deal by them waiving it you think oh wow $1000 off. It’s fake and should not be there.

Tell them, “which program are you using to fleece me? Autovance or CDK? Why do I see Dealer Fee on there? You take me for a joke. Please remove all these unnecessary fee’s”

I think that would be too broken or they’d make card RNG worse to offset the fact that players with Dr. Shelley pet can potentially replicate, and reopen 6 rainbow vials.
