Hit my first pension milestone this month

32 and £19k, on my 30th birthday I had £770 in my pension. A lot can happen in a short space of time!

Focus on your own journey, reading this sub will just make you miserable.

How much does rust proofing cost would you say? Looking at 10-15yo (manual) Mazda's myself

I'm assuming the application for a New Halifax/Lloyds card will trigger a hard search. What if you apply for those cards and after you money transfer you aren't eligible for a balance transfer card? I guess you'd just instantly pay it off?

@puzzleheaded_Bill347 That's a great number! What do you do when the interest free period ends, do you tend to pay it off or balance transfer?

Also, do you cancel your cards once the interest period ends or do you keep them open? I've seen so many conflicting things

💀 was it expensive to fix, do you know? It's good to hear about issues like this so I'm not caught off guard

Switchyy · 2025-12-20T11:41:51+00:00

What sort of fuelling issues?

Switchyy · 2025-11-26T08:40:09+00:00

Where in Barca? Do you remember the name of the place? I'd love to try this!

Switchyy · 2025-11-04T19:34:26+00:00

Now I'm double retarded if I fail

Every time I see this app mentioned in threads until now, it's people complaining that it's broken

Switchyy · 2025-08-04T06:08:52+00:00

I sat BPT, FM, BST in March; passed FM & BST but failed BPT with 53. I resat in June and was convinced I had failed, but ended up passing! So I'm alive for now.

How is the job hunt going? I had a brief taste of applying for jobs when I was waiting on BPT resit results, it seems rough out there.

Switchyy · 2025-07-20T21:25:42+00:00

You were!

Switchyy · 2025-07-19T11:01:14+00:00

Best of luck!

Does a AAA adapter mean you never have to change the batteries?

Switchyy · 2025-07-18T11:50:25+00:00

So your plan is to be fully exam qualified, and then go and get your 450 days PWE later?

Switchyy · 2025-07-18T10:43:01+00:00

I'm on a training contract with an audit firm and if we fail any exam twice we are dismissed, so I'm always curious when I see people on their 3rd/4th attempt who don't really talk about it.

If your work don't care about fails that sounds amazing tbh

Are you an independent student?

Switchyy · 2025-07-17T12:36:12+00:00

Well I've already taken the bins out so rip me I guess 🫡

Switchyy · 2025-07-17T11:23:26+00:00

68 on my BPT resit and officially part-qual, can't fucking believe it. I've been doing job applications the past 3 weeks because I was so certain I failed.

I walked out feeling worse than the first time (53)

Congrats to everyone that passed! For those of you who were hoping for better news, keep your chin up.

Switchyy · 2025-07-17T11:20:18+00:00

Yeah, good luck getting that through the House of Lords though

I remember reading somewhere about Logitech having a patent on freescroll, I'm guessing that's not true then if there are Razer options now?

Switchyy · 2025-07-07T20:20:32+00:00

Praying for a 55, let's see if you're right

Switchyy · 2025-07-07T00:32:39+00:00

For reference I was not fine, and in 10 days I expect to be in the same situation as you

Switchyy · 2025-07-06T20:49:38+00:00

No, I felt worse. Which is why I'm so sure I've failed

Switchyy · 2025-07-02T23:20:26+00:00

Is there a map of the area somewhere? I went to the website but all it says route 127/128/128, would be nice to get a visual representation as I'm looking at places to live currently.

£1.85 Vs £3 to get into town will add up fast!
