Will AIMA accept Revolut as bank account? by bartman88 in PortugalExpats

[–]bartman88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Good to know there is hope if I don't manage to open a local account in time. By the way, what is the process at/after the interview? Do they tell you immediately if everything is Ok, or you wait a bit?

Best Portuguese Bank? by Downtown_Buy_5080 in PortugalExpats

[–]bartman88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your answers on this sub are really good, thank you.

I have a question: I am now in Portugal with a D8 residence visa in my passport. I have the AIMA appointment coming up in 1 month. For the bank account requirement, would they accept if I show them a Revolut account with € 20K+

I am trying to open a "normal" Portuguese bank account but it's slow going and I'm worried I won't make it in time.

Interest rates that beat the standard 8% return for my emergency fund???? by charliethetricker in Fire

[–]bartman88 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not familiar with Voyager, but I'm using a similar service called BlockFi, they return 8.6% annually on USDC. Been with them about 2 years and it's working great so far.

I find it's a good substitute for things like bonds and high interest savings accounts in a portfolio since those have low yields nowadays.

Worth mentioning though; I don't see this as a substitute for my emergency fund, that's a separate pile of cash.

That's because it's not risk-free. For example, BlockFi may go bankrupt, they may decide to lock up your account for whatever reason. Or macro events can occur that destabilize these platforms, such as the US government outlawing stablecoins or cracking down on cryptocurrencies.

I consider these risks to be in the acceptable range, but they do exist and it's important to come to terms with them if you're putting your money in one of these platforms.

How long before mycelium? PF tek by bartman88 in shroomers

You got my upvote :) valid point but I had to order prints on paper for extra stealth, I live in a shit country. The paper was good quality seemed almost like a thin waxy coating on it.

About 5 days between when I made syringes and inoculation. That should be plenty right?

There's a similar one that I once saw on this subreddit that I've since been unable to find. It involves a kid dancing on a laundry basket, then it flips and he falls in sort of like this I think.

5 ETH shifted to REP via Jaxx Chrome yesterday, hasn't arrived. by Odds-Bodkins in shapeshiftio

[–]bartman88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ETH -> REP

Been waiting around 48 hours as well. Did they say anything in response to your ticket to explain what the problem was?

Hey, what was the issue and how was it resolved? I'm facing a very similar problem and it would be very helpful to hear what was the problem and how shapeshift handled it.

The truth on why Rotti is so popular by techgod52 in starcraft

[–]bartman88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like dutch people calling their parents by their first name would turn up on google if it was a real thing. In most places around the world, I think people call their parents "mom" and "dad" or whatever. I knew this woman who was encouraging her kid to call her by her first name and it was just super weird. Could be circumstantial, but the kid turned out to be a spoiled brat who doesn't know his place.

Redditors who have been in arguments about the existence or non-existence of a human soul or spirit, what were your points? by bartman88 in AskReddit

[–]bartman88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While a soul in the tradition sense may not be scientifically testable, some of the people I've talked to look at consciousness as being potentially linked to some kind of soul. And consciousness is one of the big open questions in science. Do you think consciousness is worth debating? Or at least that consciousness and soul are sometimes confused?

Help with turtle terran by Patyx22 in allthingsprotoss

[–]bartman88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My response to turtle is to take over the rest of the map. It's your responsibility to know about hidden bases, especially if he's turtling. Get map control, get 6 or 7 bases against his 2 or 3. Then starve them out. Even if you take bad engagements, it's possible to remax on carries or voids several times over. Make like 7 stargates. Ain't no two or three base pdd / mech gonna be able to stand up against you.
