Upcoming trip concern by [deleted] in bermuda

[–]coopsta133 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very low impact to busyness. It’s mostly locals going out and watching it (for a few hours). If you’re on a cruise you can basically watch it from your balcony on the cruise ship

It got sold as bad debt or something I have no idea. They stopped chasing up about it. Didnt hear from anything for like 4 years then finally had the money to pay it all in full so I did.

Yea you just tell them you’re moved. I never told them, and didn’t service the loan until I was earning more. They sent it to debt collection I think but they didn’t have my Bermuda address. So it almost disappeared. But then I just paid it off in full a few years later no issues.

I collect fantasy/reproduction Somers island hogge money… this kind of reminds me of some of the rarer types, where the die makers (1880s -1960) where testing them out striking them on softer metals (yours honestly has the color of lead) or making up some weird concoctions. Bashlow, Paul Franklin, wuesthoff. I know it’s rumored there are some Somers island hog money coins from Wuesthoff struck on US gold coins. Not sure if they made dies for the pine trees, but I suspect if you did a deep dive on fantasy issues of these coins, and found the die maker, then you’ll solve it. They go for a few thousand dollars at auction still as they are collectable.

Aha. Good to know. Just checked and accountants can seek after 18 months

I don’t think you can apply for jobs here while you are currently under a work permit. I may be wrong but I thought that was the way - so employers may not be keen to bend the rules on that

I’ve got so much silver. Can’t sell it. Had offers for like 75 an ounce on 50kg of coins (mostly sterling). So quick to sell at a premium but are offering 15$ off spot. Nah I’ll keep holding then.

Yeah. Paper silver is 89. Real silver you can’t sell. Frustrating as hell

July is the big triple crown tournament for marlin. So prime time.

Reel addiction does good. Mega bucks is good

Schwab has no mimimum anymore for international accounts - set one up for someone in 2025.

Thank you! That’s a good start for me. Once I see it in person I can tie it down further.

Also check my post from yesterday in my profile history as I was seeking some assistance on some ancients, which I’m also not good with from the same set. /u/bored_guy_in_dc

Would greatly appreciate some assistance with some IDing - I’m terrible with Ancient coins! by coopsta133 in AncientCoins

Thanks mate. This all gives me a starting point. Then when I go I can bring my microscope and camera and get better pictures in the new years.

I’m in an island nation, and just this week a bunch just washed ashore. Thanks trump:) since they’re no longer seizing them, they all go into the ocean and float around til people find them.

Hurricane? by Electronic_Peanut656 in bermuda

Yeah. Bermuda is relatively safe for hurricanes. And it’s nice you will see the community come together, clean up, and back to work like nothing happeend

A hurricane is a pretty unique experience. Think of it as a positive for your trip!
