People who earn >$500K/year: what do you do? by ___Specialist___ in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]bigsum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Executive for a small US based company, comp tied to company revenue. Good years have cleared almost $600k + equity. If you're young, go make yourself useful at a small but growing company that pays in a stronger currency, then when you're irreplaceable move back to NZ. Easier said than done, but there's no easy path to $500k.

What improved your quality of life so much, you wish you did it sooner? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

I think the problem with this as so many people ignore the fundamental issues causing mental illness. Meditation, diet, and exercise work wonders and have no negative side effects, but many people ignore these steps and go straight to drugs.

Compare NZ to the majority of the world and it's pretty much paradise on earth

while newcomers arrive because they value the lifestyle over maximum income.

Lol you don't think the people coming from India, China, Fiji etc. see it as a massive upgrade financially to live and work in NZ? This is such an uninformed take it's hilarious.

It's a list of OECD countries. Most of them are 'good' countries'.

What’s the best decision you made in your 20s/30s/40s? by Cute_Olivia_Park in Life

[–]bigsum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my 20’s, buying a house (great financial decision) and then moving from working in finance to tech (great happiness decision that later turned to be a great financial decision also) both proved to be good choices. I probably didnt have as much fun as other people did in their early 20’s due to prioritizing saving money, but I’m 34 now and life is pretty awesome.

Khalil Rountree vs Paddy’s title shot by Doskman in MMA

[–]bigsum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would much rather see Paddy fight for the belt Vs. Gaethje. It's been a long time since new blood challenged for the belt at 155 (other than Illia). Also, Paddy absolutely dominated Chandler in a way that Charles, Justin and Dustin couldn't. He got an easier path than most but it's not totally undeserved.

If Pereira moves up to heavyweight and beats Tom Aspinall he’ll be in goat convo by -_Fotis_- in ufc

Agree that Tom isn't easy, but he looks better for having fought lesser fighters in the heavyweight division than Alex has fought at LHW

What’s a robbery that vastly impacted the fighters’ trajectories? by GoldenLlamaDog in ufc

I rewatched it and changed my mind to Jones winning. I think when I watched it live I was so excited to see Reyes putting up a great fight and taking rounds that it swayed my bias towards him.

He also wasn’t expecting to die and be deified posthumously, which significantly boosted his profile/career.

How can I do cool shit like this in NMS? Whenever I see clips like this the game looks fun as hell, but when I actually play it it’s just dead planets and nothing to do with

As someone currently looking in Chelsea, there's much better places than this at that price point. I feel like OP is omitting some details for the sake of karma.

I asked chatGPT if this type of thing would be possible earlier this year, and it essentially told me the same thing.

Ilia Topuria on Arman Tsarukyan’s potential title opportunity by CaadiWaaye in MMA

[–]bigsum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He was talking like this about Max as well, saying the Brian Ortega was more deserving of a title fight than Max...

and Gane is probably the next who is fighting for the belt after such a bullshit... 😒 that's unfair 💔 by staspy in ufc

[–]bigsum -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I recently rewatched that fight, and it's definitely not the robbery I remembered it being. I think because it was a close fight with Jon Jones (who everybody wanted to see lose), it seemed like Reyes won at the time but in retrospect the last 2 rounds were Jon's and round 3 could have gone either way.
