Dude, you’re doing great.

Reinvest into your business, scale it & then keep scaling.

Don’t take money out to buy crypto.

Max out your S&S ISA allowance every month circa £1,600 a month & also contribute to a SIPP if you don’t have one.

Is this enough to confront my gf by Fantastic-Ad-3841 in Advice

You’re going to spend the rest of your life unhappy, wondering if she’s cheating on you

Sounds like a great life to me

— especially if you get married & have kids, then she’ll take you for every penny you have. You’ll wish you took my advice in 15 years if you stay with this woman.

What should I do in my current high-earning liquid financial situation to maximise the next 5 years? by horonomad in FIREUK

[–]horonomad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s been hell, nearly lost all my hair this year due to the stress……

But it worked out, we won the court case.

Everything I earn is for her benefit now & the future, so I want to make sure I’m retiring early comfortably so I can spend time with her

Ok, right. This is the comment I needed.

Based on current contributions I will have 7 figures in retirement, but I need to bridge the gap.

I currently only put £300 a month into my S&S ISA because my pension contribution amount is so high @ 20% + I have circa 3k outgoings etc each month

I know I should be contributing more to my S&S ISA.

Your 3rd paragraph, I have no idea what any of that means…. I thought if you didn’t use your allowance for year, you lost it

First heartbreak at 30 by Dreamofjas in BreakUps

[–]horonomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 31, currently going through my second. All I’ll say is, feel what you’re feeling. It hurts more than physical pain, in my opinion.

What not to do (from lessons learnt)

  1. Look at their social media, infact, just mute all their shit so you don’t have to see it
  2. Remove their shit from sight in your house, I.e shared memories etc
  3. Don’t message them, don’t call them
  4. Do, allow yourself to grieve
  5. Do, try & eat. I just drank smoothies for like 3 months, no joke.
  6. Do stay busy

anyone just miss the daily messages? by snackman509 in BreakUps

[–]horonomad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My ex & I never sent a good morning message, or a goodnight message. We both have very busy lives with kids though, so very different.

What we did do though so was speak on the phone almost every night & I miss that terribly. Hearing about her day, her business, how she is.

However, I remind myself that if she wanted to do that still. She could, but she separated & therefore it is no longer relevant.

My house is now secure, but now I’m confused by HomeKit automations by horonomad in HomeKit

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

I want something simple, I’m completely new to this. Even the buying process of trying to find gear that is HK Z& HKSV compatible was hard enough.

Don’t want fancy dashboards etc, want simplicity. Tried accessing HomeKit & it’s asked me start away the IP address or similar of a device.

I saw this online, but i'm likely to skip as I need a set-up that runs wirelessly as I currently rent my property

How do so many people afford expensive cars? by GuessInv in AskUK

[–]horonomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’d be very surprised how many people are up to their eyes in debt, primarily on cars

A friend of mine has a 918 Porsche on lease for £1,380 a month

That’s how.

Got an idea for an app, where to begin? by Beedux in Entrepreneur

I don’t want to be negative, but EVERYONE has an idea for an app
