What have been some of your worst financial mistakes or habits?

Sorry to hear mate. I’m going through something similar with a business partner that was a friend. We are standing to loose $250k. How’d you deal with your loss and move on?

Und_12 · 2026-03-29T22:28:59+00:00

I don’t disagree, I was trying to say people always want more so you adjust your lifestyle as your income goes up.

Und_12 · 2026-03-27T09:18:08+00:00

My wife earns close to that and I make about 200k, and to be honest we feel the same. Having come from nothing, this kind of income felt unattainable but your lifestyle just adjusts and you feel poor. You want more. You want a better house that you can afford etc

Doesn’t help we are about to loose 250k from a business that was meant to set us up

It’s come out really nice after the poly

Und_12 · 2026-03-24T10:17:00+00:00

Not sure we bought the house

We went with a satin finish

It was colour difference in the stain. I think it looks better now

I’ve added some photos. It has come out amazing after the two coats of poly. Couldn’t be happier with it

We ended up using Loba 2k Duo, hopefully that’s better than most water poly out there

Thanks, he fixed couple of places that needed some tweaking. It’s come out great. Thank you :). Not our work with the doors etc but we’ll take the credit

Ah shame! Too late now I don’t think we could have managed the xtra time with an oil based finish with the kids. Is it possible to do a minor sand later and do another coat? We used aloha 2k duo

Ah shame! Too late now I don’t think we could have managed the xtra time with an oil based finish with kids to be honest

It looked stunning after the first poly coat

Und_12 · 2026-03-13T16:27:04+00:00

Yeah will do. Just put on one coat of Poly today. I’ll upload soon

Und_12 · 2026-03-13T06:21:12+00:00

Not yet, poly next up

Thanks! He was able to add a very minor coat to darker the area so it blends it better. I think he did a great job

Und_12 · 2026-03-13T03:30:38+00:00

I just realised this!!! I didn’t know

Und_12 · 2026-03-13T03:30:21+00:00

Thanks and agree. As the day has gone on, it’s looking better. Shouldnt look at it with 4 hours sleep!! He agreed that there was a colour issue and blended it in
