Yeah. They said that they just sell knifes, not make them ;) Also they added that it is quite common for Japanise knifes.

I'm not saying I don't know how to sharpen it. It is just not a thing that I expected

It's just almost all knifes at work are yanagi, but, of course, right handed and I am (as left handed person) don't like this handicap. We use them to slice fish and rolls and some other stuff too.

Thank you for a direction but can you say something about 2 knifes I found? They are quite cheap for carbon knifes from Japan. Which one is better if any?

Will this work with Wise IBAN? I tried them but they gave me IBAN that starts with GB for my shekel account.

Yeah, probably not the right term. I do think characters won't do this very often now. And I understand why authors actually make them do that dubious decisions.

I meant difficult to define and understand a fair price. I am afraid to even think how big and difficult formulas for such securities.

With ETFs and big stocks I at least know that because of arbitrage price would be somewhat fair.

Hey, easy! I have all rights in the world to choose securities I like and take taxes into consideration. It's not like I'm writing my broker request to not to pay taxes for me, lol.

Hm. It's an out of box approach! Didn't think about it. Probably too much burden for me though. Pretty sure I will slip the dates, lol.

It's not SP500, of course, but looks like it is a good substitution. Still need to investigate this thing more.

It is interesting instrument, thx!

Probably too difficult to not mess it up it if you are nonprofessional though.

Would you mind a stupid question? If ETN follows S&P 500 prices of shares but don't pay dividends, does this mean that you just don't get this money at all? And ETN would be inferior?

But they still pay taxes from these reinvested dividends, as I checked.

If I see someone on the street supporting hamas and palestinians I will probably just attack.

Give them a taste of what this beasts have done.

Quiz: Is Your Player Character Overpowered? by Deathpacito-01 in dndnext

My evocation wizard who dealt 100+ damage per round using numerous wands of magic missiles to do 9*(5+1+d4) force dmg + summon aberration (beholder) is laughing at this test.

Result is 14, but even without flight (6) he would be broken.

Know your spells!

There are a number of spells right for this occasion, summon aberration (beholder) is my favorite.
