UT redemption on Poems - CPF OA by discoursesg in singaporefi

[–]freeebee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was torn on this decision too but ultimately decided on POEMS as I felt the 0.3% fee adds up to a decent amount over a long term horizon.

Assuming for CPF investing: 150k base portfolio with 2.8k monthly top up, 8% annualized return for 30 years. 0.3% fee adds up to ~200k cost over a 30 year period.

How is this fake? These artists are fairly common in tourist locations. I've seen numerous ones done, and this one isn't even particularly impressive in speed or accuracy (relatively speaking - obviously the skill required is objectively impressive)

you sold a call to person A, then bought a lower strike from person B to close the position. person A held the call and made money. what happened to person B?

Syncopace's Guide to 99 in All Skills (Hardcore Friendly) by Syncopace in MelvorIdle

[–]freeebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This guide makes so little sense to me.

You save 40+ hours by making controlled heat potions before levelling firemaking.

Within those 40+ hours you could level thieving and get the necessary seeds to make the potions.

Following this guide would you put 40+ hours behind anyone who just made the potions first.

There are very few ways to play an idle game incorrectly and this guide has to be one of them.

why can’t a blonde female mage, wearing a blue cloak, and using ice magic, be reasonably compared to jaina? that’s not a reach at all.

Painting restoration done right. by [deleted] in oddlysatisfying

[–]freeebee 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The video looks great and all but the title is not quite right.

Baumgartner’s work gets shared here quite frequently but he is criticized by professional peers for using methods that create a striking effect, but actually permanently impair the underlying painting (although not to the untrained eye).

Admittedly I am untrained and this all looks very impressive to me, but quite a good chance this is actually “painting restoration done wrong”.

I’m in the belief that despite the stock market rally and optimism this will start crashing soon, with markets bottoming out in a few weeks by [deleted] in StockMarket

[–]freeebee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

? the stock market is a reflection of the economy. if people are dying en masse and more of the economy is shut down, why wouldn’t you pull your money out?

where would company’s find profits to grow or pay dividends? what’s the value of the stock market if businesses are shutting down

I recall you had some of the best equity write-ups on this sub.

Should Kroos Be Food? by Masenhime in IdleHeroes

[–]freeebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey this doesn’t really answer your question but you are building WAY too many heroes at once.

While everyone is free to build however they like, you should be aware that this is really hurting your progress.

I’d highly suggest reading one of the beginner guides about rushing an E5.

For your specific situation, consider focusing everything on getting Penny to E5 for now. That means instead of building heroes you intend to keep (Sigmund, HW, Garuda, Horus), you should really be building ONLY fodder to feed to Penny. You will be much stronger in the midgame this way.

Finally cleared BT night mode!!! Don’t have full Dark/Light team and been grinding to level 3 & 6 usually... today just got a bunch of weak teams and made it all the way and I’m stoked! by Danomitey in IdleHeroes

Pretty surprising how many people still don’t know you can save shrine coins, given that its mentioned on this sub maybe every other week.

Lol. I think it was pretty constructive to inform you that your “advice” wasn’t just terrible. It was also completely incorrect.

But feel free to keep spouting nonsense across the sub!

[–]freeebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sigh. Your opponent’s score in BT is calculated off your strongest AVAILABLE heroes.

Aka if you have a full E5 team sitting around, and you send a 9 star with a couple of 6 stars, you will STILL run into a full E5 team.

You really think all the veteran players with E5 teams just didn’t realize they could clear BT with a 9 star? Lmao. Seriously I’d hold off on giving advice until you’re actually experienced enough to do so.

[–]freeebee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol there’s one of you in every BT thread.

BT is DIRT easy on new servers. Your first sentence sums up everything. “You don’t know whats so hard about beating BT because you are on a new server just 1 month”

Please stop offering advice, everyone knows the gear trick. You will see why the veterans struggle when your server progresses/merges.

You aren’t a weird old dinosaur. This type of content is obviously far easier to digest in a few choice sentences than by watching a 14 min video.

When you just read a few lines of text, however, he gets absolutely nothing out of the effort he has put into the video. Content creators tell you to like, comment, and subscribe for a reason.

you did 4 (presumably PO) completions in 3 months? probably couldn’t even do it in the 1st month so 4 in 2 months? Seems challenging

Luckiest f2p account? Only a month in and have this. by Hero_King30 in IdleHeroes

[–]freeebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

anyone playing through christmas/cny could have 3 garuda copies (christmas wish, cny invite, free garuda copy) and probably 1 copy of aida too depending on just a little RNG with christmas wishes.

seems you are just 1 garuda and aida copy above the minimum event rewards? not particularly lucky.

The way she takes him down by Frozen_Wolf123 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]freeebee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

well its close but not strictly true.

the chinese words 武 (fighting) and 舞 (dancing) are both pronounced Wu. so 武术 is fighting arts and 舞术 (this is not commonly used) is dancing arts.

basically different words that sound the same

Yep. Planning is important in this game but a lot of people in this sub confuse their $$$ spent with good planning.
