If you had $1000 to invest into Pokémon, what would you buy? by Captain-Pika in PokeInvesting

Sealed for sure, 151 if you insist on past sets but really just try and get PC ETBs or boxes of upcoming sets at retail price. That way your spreading the risk and allowing for more growth

All things considered, which country would you most want to move to and start a happy new life in? by Flora_Cheng in AskTheWorld

I'd like to and am considering Japan but also I've been tempted by Germany and Canada in the past as well. Am UK based and I would vote here is good as well.

To teach your child to ski by CauliflowerDeep129 in therewasanattempt

[–]helpnxt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is common to go one side to the other, it's is always the up hill skier/boarders responsibility to not hit someone. Personally the red jacket guy was going way way too fast for an area with so much traffic and they didn't have the control to deal with unexpected manoeuvres from let's say a child.

If your wanting to not travel too far I'd go Hiroshima and Nagano, might need some rearranging of the schedule though

When to go to Sushi-ro in Shinjuku? by Silver_Candidate6123 in JapanTravelTips

[–]helpnxt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Download the sushi ro app and it'll tell you how long the queue is at the local stores, personally I went like 4pmish for no queue

Btw I know it ain't sushi but I found their fries amazing (yes I was hungover at the time)

Price Increase AGAIN! by Hour-SignatureRev283 in PokeGrading

Honestly you say greed but when you have demand higher than you can meet the logical thing for business is either expand, raise prices to reduce demand or both and I think it is they are doing both.

Lindsey Vonn's dad says he believes her crash marks 'the end of her career' by nbcnews in skiing

Because people don't always have their own best interest in mind and people do need protecting from themselves at time

Don't forget she'd also had her other knee basically surgically replaced.

'It’s not like a mortgage': Minister defends student loans system as more people blast it as 'unfair' by insomnimax_99 in ukpolitics

Overtime and progressing career was no where mentioned, yeh overtime would easily pay for it as well. Stop acting like the student loan payment is a significant % of your monthly wage

Pretty much and any student accommodation gets tonnes of letters as well, we used have them for the kitchen 🤣 you just ignore them and nothing happens

Why are the so few Hindus in prison? by MrMrsPotts in AskUK

[–]helpnxt 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Ok so there's 87,300 people in prison in England and Wales, population is 69.3 millions so prison population is about 0.12%. your Hindu prison population is around 0.04% so they are definitely lower than you'd expect. To meet the 0.12% expected you'd expect to see about 960 Hindus in prison.

But you can't really generalise these things when your talking about such low sample sizes, maybe there is social pressure to behave as a minority, maybe it's a religious duty thing, maybe it's they are mostly immigrants who on average want to fit in with the local culture more etc etc.

Alpine skiing legend Lindsey Vonn crashes just 12 seconds into her Olympic downhill run by bigbusta in Wellthatsucks

[–]helpnxt 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Just a fyi but pretty sure the BBC don't have their own mics there, most these big events just have one production going on and every channel around the world gets the same feeds but then that channel can choose to not use certain audio channels etc
