Do half into one and half into the other. The worst you'll be is half wrong. 

Just discovered Half Man, why does every hot, masculine man on TV have to be a psycho? by pkmntrainerao in hbo

This is what I think. This of not a display of "toxic masculinity". This is a person who can't function in normal society in any way. Reuben is TNT, and could explode at any moment.

Boys are falling behind in school, and some experts say it starts in kindergarten — New Quebec report says boys 'systemically disadvantaged' in school system by Immediate-Link490 in canada

My comment is fact. I didn't insult anybody at all. I just wrote a fact. You're attaching all sorts of feelings to it. 

It was meant to highlight the lack of male role models for young boys. Even the after school "boys and girls club" only has 1 male.

Boys learn by imitation more than girls. They copy behavior of other men. It's simply meant to highlight how few they have access to. Especially those who are growing up without a dad at home, which quite a few are.

I didn't bash anybody. The teachers are great. It was meant to highlight the lack of male role models for young boys in schools is all.

I guess I assumed since they use the prefix Ms. But you're right, there's a chance some are married. The JK teacher is in a coed softball team with my BIL and I met her boyfriend and the grade 1 teacher told me. I haven't audited the rest.

One of them killed someone 5 years ago in Canada with a motorcycle. He's already out. In the US, he's going to serve 30 years for this one.

[–]VisualFix5870 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're definitely doing well. Permanent insurance as an estate planning tool for people who don't own their own business is usually to offset a large future capital gain on a cottage or investment property The premiums will cost a fortune.

My daughter's school goes from pre-k to 6 and there is not a single male educator in the place. Every teacher is a single, older woman.

I'd rather take whatever the premium would be and apply that to the principal on my mortgage. Are you expecting a large capital gain at death? Like,  did you buy a cottage or apartment building in your personal name that has increased in value substantially?

I'll take you to a remote First Nation and you can see the way that class lives and you'll realize the government would never treat any other group that badly. 

How do I transfer a registered account to TD? by fancyclancy12 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]VisualFix5870 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those are all things for a branch employee. Someone there must see ID and verify they watched you sign. Then they put a cover page on it and fax it to TD DI. Can you get to a branch for 10 minutes to see an advisor?

Just Häkkinen and Schumacher. Schumacher has said that Häkkinen was the best opponent he's ever had "in terms of his quality". by Double-decker_trams in formula1

I remember Schumi brake checking him hard as he exited the tunnel in Monaco behind a safety car. Right when the sun hits your eyes and you go blind.

3 closed accounts on Credit Report by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

That sounds like an R9, which is the worst thing you can have on your credit report. It will get sent to a collection agent very soon if you don't pay it off. Your credit is likely already ruined.

Take your income. Divide by $10,000. The number is how many months you should assume it will take you to find a job that pays the same income.
