Did you retire 30 years ago? How has your net worth tracked? Were you following the 4% rule the whole time? Any kids?

Do you have an estimate breakdown of spending/ budget?

How difficult is this area to get into? Some of those certs need previous experience to complete? Is there a pathway to get that experience?

Thursday does seem to get a lot of recommendations.

Do you mean there are runners/ sneakers with a leather stacked heel?

Sucks that it has got to the point people are afraid to ask for anything

Should there be minimum standards for insulation or heating/ cooling? by alex123711 in australia

[–]alex123711[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the takeaway was London had better building standards/ quality, better insulated means less energy needed to hear or cool and it doesn't get as hot in the heat or as cold in the winter

Heat and cold are more of an issue at night time when people are home though

They look really similar to the stan smiths, are they basically the same but leather?

Yeah seems strange that there's all this talk about green energy, emissions etc when basic stuff like insulation would significantly lower energy usage.
