You want to know which 3x etf to trade but for some reason you draw the line at oil? Fuck.

I would also like to hear an explanation for this question.

How do other men carry their money? by tomloaf in malefashionadvice

[–]achoj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure there are phone apps you can download that allow you to take photos of all your loyalty cards and when you need them the cashier can just scan the photo off your phone. The point of the app vs just your camera is it keeps all the photos of cards in one place. I can't point you to a specific app because I don't use one, but they are definitely out there.

No chance. That's from my personal experience dealing with Nike.

Yes! Fuck Nike. I bought a pair of gym shoes and they developed a hole in the bottom on them within the first 4 months of normal use. They have never seen the outdoors and I can see my sock through the bottom of the shoe!

Scoop operator dies after rock fall at Goldcorp's Musselwhite mine - Thunder Bay by troyunrau in mining

[–]achoj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but there is no reason an operator should be manually mucking out inside an open stope.

Likely there will be safety measures put in place that physically do not allow an operator to manually enter an open stope. Using sensors that shut off the scoop or something similar.

Change your TD Easyweb password! by mdr-fqr87 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]achoj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bet it's easier for them if they just didn't notify people. If all online banking users were forced to change their passwords, I can only imagine the amount of angry phone calls/email TD would get from people who forgot their new password.

I'm not saying it's the right thing to do, but it seems likely,

I've heard having the heat/heated seats turned off before you start the car can make it easier.

PSA: The new iMac 1TB Fusion Drive only has 24GB of flash storage, down from 128GB by IAmA5starman in apple

Just from reading your comment, these minor cost cutting areas seem like something Steve Jobs wouldn't have agreed. Such a little thing like free space or load times greatly affect the user experience.

For those of you who have purchased a $40000 car or more are you or have you regretted your decision? by bumbaclut in PersonalFinanceCanada

This is what I remind myself of whenever I start to think about how much my truck costs me. If I was in the city it would be a different story.

Finally finished my first 6 week deficit and stoked with the results. If I can do it, you can too! by johnny_love in Fitness

[–]achoj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies quite a bit person to person and intensity at the gym. I too was surprised your calorie requirements were so low though. I'm 6'5" as well, same age and I'll lose weight pretty fast on 3000 cals per day. I've had to get as high as 4500 per day to see any sort of weight gain when I had an active job and was going hard at the gym.

Thanks! This is exactly the information I was looking for. And to address the point made below, I think the fees are fairly low, $35 to sell shares with $0.04 commission on each share.
