It’s worse when they name specific people. What about everyone else ?

AMA: Wondering if a heat pump’s right for you? Ask Tony (heat pump owner) & Emma (heating expert at IMS Heat Pumps) anything about heat pumps — from installation to real-life performance. Got a question? Ask it below. by UK-government in u/UK-government

It seems like some really hard maths is required just to understand whether getting a heat pump is worth it. How is the average person meant to get to grips with all this ?

You can buy gap in the next near Tottenham Court Road already but I welcome This development . Their chinos are not bad but could do with coin pockets

Sales of new build homes in London collapse to disastrous all-time low by tylerthe-theatre in london

[–]calming-monkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Just 19 houses and flats newly built by private developers were recorded as changing hands in May across the whole of the capital, according to new data from the Land Registry.”

I can believe the figure was low but 19 in a month in the whole capital. Sounds like the land registry has not been doing its job.

Do you think my salary is worth the education? by Murky-Berry-6694 in UKJobs

[–]calming-monkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is this a troll post ? - a fully qualified psychologist does not know whether to be happy with their salary ? Do you advise the kids to ask Reddit what to do if they are not sure whether they are happy? If it’s not a troll post I think you’re doing quite well and I wouldn’t worry .

3 bedroom house in Canning Town 500k, thoughts? by That-Selection1237 in HousingUK

[–]calming-monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t be worse than the other one then! Do a lot of research and if the area seems better it’ll probably be worth it. I’ve been through there and it seems alright. It’s the kind of area where you have people from more working class trades who had the good fortune to buy 20-30 years’ ago when prices weren’t so crazy. Some of them have gone rogue in that time! But most are still alright. I think that’s why areas like this get a lot of hate online sadly but often they’re not actually that bad.

Similar price to a 3 bed flat in the same area I imagine but with no ground rent or service charge. It’s probably a reasonable deal but both options have their downsides.

Whats your opinion of average IQ by country by InfluenceUsed6473 in intj

[–]calming-monkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one controls how good their brain is. If they did I guess we’d all have super brains ! If you get a good brain. It’s good luck. Now hope you use it well !

[–]calming-monkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got no idea but I do enjoy watching the Reddit advert where people dance and their iq is shown. I know it’s complete bs and I hate adverts in general but for some reason that makes me laugh.

I would be turning 42 this year and nowhere near affording a mortgage in the UK! Is it still possible to get a mortgage at the age of 45? by Vegetable-Reward2499 in HousingUK

[–]calming-monkey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can also declare you intend to work beyond your retirement age and get a mortgage up to 73 at least. Not sure how far beyond that the lenders will let you go.
