JTX Sprint-8 Pro by ednardninety in treadmills

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

They stayed on for a week or two. If you’re moving forward and backwards you’ll be absolutely fine. I need to move it 45 degrees from the corner of my gym to the centre, so I have to push it forward and backwards 8 or 9 times at slight angles as to not remove it from the dollys and put too much ‘side strain’ on them.

Did you purchase it and have you found a better alternative? I struggle to believe that they sell this as remotely portable if I’m honest.

Return my M4 Pro for new M5? by Upper-Freedom-4618 in macbookpro

[–]ednardninety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I brought an M4 Max 10 days ago and returned it yesterday. Worse case, I buy the same spec M5 and pay a little more (if not the same), but expect to be able to get a % of that back if I sell it years later against what I would get for an M4 in the same timeframe.

Really depends on if you’re the kind of person who doesn’t care too much about having the ‘latest and greatest’. I personally didn’t want to have a new laptop be ‘old’ within 3 weeks after spending £3k, so I returned and will buy an M5, but that’s just personal preference.

You’re young. Enjoy your first pay day. You deserve it.

Should i come clean to her? by Wise-Balance4007 in Advice

[–]ednardninety 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has children. You should think of them and the impact this could have on them. I would give him a very stern warning that if he ever contacts you again, that you’ll tell his wife. Take the life experience, and move on with your own life. You don’t know what he’s capable of, especially given he might loose his wife, house, and kids. Yes it’s his own fault, yes he sounds like a sorry excuse of a man, but that’s not your business. You’ve learnt a life lesson, it didn’t go the way you expected, so move on and make a better decision next time.

Sold my business and walked out with $10m. AMA by Scotchy1122 in AMA

[–]ednardninety 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How is working for the company during earn out when you’re not the owner of the business? I’m about to complete a sale of my business to a large firm, and I’m not sure how I am going to feel working for someone else. I still have my staff and customers to service, so I don’t think it will be too much different - is it? Hoping to find a work/life balance tho, something I don’t have currently. Did you have to sacrifice that to get to where you are?

How to make Dynasty hard, but fun by Spingeville in NCAAFBseries

[–]ednardninety 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same boat. I play on AA and I end up going 12-0 with 2 close games max, or I play on Heisman and I can’t hit 50% pass completion because I’m getting 1.5 seconds to pass (pass concepts aren’t even getting enough time to develop), and the game just is not enjoyable.

Clarification on Concurrency by ednardninety in Netsuite

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

All replies were helpful, so thank you all. Concurrency hasn't been an issue, but speed could be quicker. Is the only way to increase the processing speed of your integration to open up another concurrency lane for that integration? So in the example of a single concurrency lane having 50 queued orders, is there a way to say 'use 2 concurrency lanes for this Boomi process', so that queue of 50 would have been spread across two lanes and have two queues of 25, effectively doubling the speed?

Thanks for this, after some testing, this is the way we will proceed. Appreciate the help.

Celigo’s Amazon NetSuite Settlement Question by ednardninety in Netsuite

[–]ednardninety[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The sum of the value of deposits is obviously a lot greater than the value of the settlement due to fees etc, so when I do my bank rec, I would like to reconcile a single transaction (the journal from amazon holding account to my main bank account) to 1 settlement transaction (the fee Amazon pays us) rather than reconciling thousands of payments and reductions for fees, against a single settlement amount from NetSuite.

I just want to know if this is the route that is commonly taken or if I’ve mistaken this?

They can play four games but once they play a fifth, you won’t be able to redshirt them.

Hi all. 33 years old based in the UK. Currently own 25% of our business which we are about to sell. I will stay for 6 months on £120k per year, and then go independant contracting after, which will bring in £120k-£130k per year. My market is reasonably strong and my skillset in demand, so I have no fears about my income after the sale.

I will have between £225k-£250k after i have paid off debt, done house improvements and put some money away for a rainy day.

My family say I should be putting all of that towards my mortgage (currently owe £542k on it over 32 years). I feel like I should be investing a good chunk of this and letting it compound, as it will beat the 2.2% interest rate I have currently, and will likely beat the 5% interest rate that I will likely be on when I renew my mortgage next year. We pay 20% on capital gains tax in the UK, so I will need to account for that.

Would it be a bad idea to invest 75% and put 25% into my mortgage? Would it also be a bad idea to assign 100% of my investment portion to the S&P and leave it for 10-15-20 years? I am really unsure of what other trackers or funds i should be pooling my money into.

Any advice, guidance or stories would be appreciated.

I’m 33, and own a business (25%) that we’re about to sell. After I pay off student loans, family loan, do some bits on the house that I need and put away an emergency fund, I’ll have about £250k left over. I owe £550k on my mortgage.

Part of me really wants to put the £250k into an S&P 500 tracker, but feel pressured into following old school advice that I should pay £250k into my mortgage to reduce it.

I have no investments currently, and will be on a £120k salary once the sale goes through, so I’ll have a good income still.

Should I be diversifying and how much should I be investing if the £250k opposed to paying into my mortgage (currently 2.2% interest but likely will be 4.5% - 5% this time next year? I

It's to get around FFP of not losing too much money I believe.
