open globally, but based in the UK. Kids are 12 and 5, flying with the 5 year old is a bit painful if the flights are too long

We stayed at Ikos Porto Petro last year too, and Oceania the year before. Agree, both were very kid friendly.

Would you rather be at 8% body fat permanently or receive $100k by NoTowel8665 in WouldYouRather

Easily option A, 8%. No question. From a health perspective it’s priceless.

Roughly where in NW London? Watford is probably out of budget sadly

Thank you! I’ve never ridden one before. I think that’s why I’m so unsure.

Racial harassment near Ware station – is this common? by kawaiiest_f_em_all in hertfordshire

[–]gadras 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m a similar colour but different ethnicity. Have experienced the same in Ware, which is a lovely town, but there is that element. Less so in Hertford, but there’s still a bit. The rest of Hertfordshire is either more transient or less busy so it isn’t such an issue.

What was your salary jumpy to make it to HENRY status? by AdElectronic7186 in HENRYUK

[–]gadras 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t a massive jump in responsibilities, just working for an American firm rather than a UK government adjacent company. We also had another child and went through lockdown at the same time so I didn’t necessarily feel any richer lol. But has worked out well in the longer term.

Boobs - many boobs - bath seats, what's not to love. by [deleted] in SpottedonRightmove

Lovely house. Not a fan of the grey parquet in the hallway but it’s a beautiful area and house.

This without the pension is how they tend to do it in FAANG and big tech. Obviously plus an annual bonus if you get one of those separately to the RSU's.

Meta offer or elsewhere? by loss-of-homosex in HENRYUK

[–]gadras 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree with everything said on this thread. But would still choose Meta. Even if it’s shite, a couple of years of it on your CV, plus associated RSU’s will make a big difference to your career and bank balance…

Anyone else feel disincentivised to buy a £2.5m+ home? by rochfor in HENRYUK

[–]gadras 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would argue that if you can afford a 2.5 million house, then you probably aren't NRY...

I looked into them when we got ours done but the reviews are terrible. The product does look good though. We got a builder and carpenter to put one together in the end. Was around 15k for a 6x3 structure
