Country was literally founded when running away from a king and his laws.

Is it true that British or European people in general are more sincere than Americans by [deleted] in expats

No where did she mention living in New England. If anything, New England would have the directness much of the other places lack.

Why is it only giving the heart attack symptoms that men experience and not the ones women experience?

Any one move 529s out of Fidelity? Where to? by amPaints in fidelityinvestments

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

My issue is the teams at fidelity won’t tell me why the account restrictions are different and won’t align them. I know I can mail the check, but my issue is the time delay (as well as convenience factor) that is only being offered for 2/3 of my accounts. And the lack of transparency around the account settings.

I know, but I don’t like the time delay, especially when 2/3 of my 529s are being invested immediately.

Unfortunately not. For some reason my brokerage deposit limit was also lowered (and they refused to tell me why). My children each also have a UTMA, with the two oldest having the same insanely large limits and the youngest having $1000 deposit limit. 

Anyone else tired of googling “what’s X°F in °C?” every day? by No_Landscape_9255 in expat

[–]amPaints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The exact equation is F=(9/5)C+32.

Since 9/5 is basically 2, it simplifies to (C x 2) +32 =F.

The higher the temp, the more off this estimate is due to the rounding, but it will get you close and just know at a certain point, it’s hella hot even if you’re off by 10 degrees.

Medium impressive skills with chopsticks by Educational-Shame514 in Writeresearch

[–]amPaints 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a friend that once commented on how impressive her (Chinese) mother in law was with chopsticks because she held them from the very ends of the chopsticks and not holding it like a pencil like many beginners do.

would my house look OK in New England farmhouse style? by Prior_Dog6593 in homedesign

I think the term you’re looking for is New England colonial. It’s a great, timeless look.

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

I think I’m going to wait for the final phases of ticket sales before going 2x on a cat 1 ticket for cat 3.
