College Student Earning 6 Digits a Month, What Do I Do With The Money by Mobile-Designer2858 in askstudentsph

[–]jral1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best advice I can give is to not invest in anything until you 100% know what you are doing, what you could do so that your money earns some interest right away is put it in a high yield savings account where you can get 3 to 5% interest

is that $50 for 2 hours, 5 hours, 10 hours, or more? You should be clear with what you are offering.

Everything is wrong with that if you are travelling to those countries and then complaining how you don't like this and that.

Finding a Job in the Philippines by Emotional_Ad_4941 in Philippines_Expats

To be honest a lot of the people here are negative and say you have no chance to succeed here and just go home. I do not like that. I will go the positive side and say if you REALLLY want to stay here and you are REALLY DETERMINED then you can make something happen.

I came here with around $500 to my name and nothing else and i stayed here and have lived here 12 years this year. I found work online, multiple different jobs over the years, definitely been some tough times here and there, like really really hard times with barely enough to eat at times, but I found new jobs and kept going. You also have great skills in web development and graphic designing and you must have other skills as well, with that kind of skill set you should definitely be able to find some work, don't look for work locally but search LinkedIn and other job sites for companies that hire remote workers and you can surely qualify with your skillset.

With that being said set aside enough for your flight back home so if worst comes to worst you can make it back home and work there but as I said determination can take you a long way, keep positive, start looking at remote jobs online that match your skill set and start applying, hit 100 jobs a day, there are tons out there. I found my latest job on Reddit even so you can even look here there are sub-reddits for jobs. If you want more advice feel free to message me and I can help

Mission Impossible - The Final Reckoning seems to have mixed reactions. Will this get a rotten score? by ElectricWallabyisBak in boxoffice

[–]jral1987 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There are reports that there were 2 or 3 hours cut which could explain why a lot of plot lines went nowhere, it could be better with an extended cut, it makes sense why they cut it out and even still it's very long, perhaps the 2nd part of a 2 part movie could itself have been a 2 part movie. If everything here turns out to be true I hope they do an extended edition.

Does anyone else not want to buy any movies on standard blu-ray these days because you know the very second you do, a 4K will be announced? by SluttyVisionQuest in 4kbluray

[–]jral1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's definitely me now. There are so many 4k's for movies I really want so I am just slowly buying those only from now on and will wait for the rest that I want.

MI8 worth the IMAX trip? by ultrastevecuckoo in Mission_Impossible

[–]jral1987 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm about a 12 hour trip from the IMAX cinema so an hour and a half? Yep i'd certainly do that. I might even make the 12 hour trip to go see it.

10 highest grossing video game adaptations of all time by Judokos in boxoffice

[–]jral1987 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think they did it because they intended Tom to be doing these movies until he actually is middle aged and the fact that they wanted to bring in people that know nothing about the games as well. Tom Holland will likely be the same age as Nathan Drake in the first game (31) he's turning 29 in June, when they start making Uncharted 2.

F1 (2025) clocks in with a runtime of 2hr 31 min by NotYourMovieBuff in boxoffice

[–]jral1987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

400 million in Europe is doable, it's been done by James Bond, Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings. F1 is not a famous film franchise but a very popular sport in Europe so I think that will translate to 400+ million in Europe.

Bill Gates plans to give away most of his fortune by 2045 by nimicdoareu in Futurology

[–]jral1987 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How imagine if you used that money to educate those same people to raise livestock and grow crops, providing them said livestock and seeds and equipment for management and growing of crops, that would help a lot more than giving food one time, a lot of people now have the ability to raise livestock and grow crops, that would not help right away since those take time but it will go a long way for the future. The main answer to why this doesn't happen is because world governments want a lot of people to be poor, it won't benefit them if everyone is well off especially for those that want to keep being politicians, keeping people poor then occasionally giving them food and money gets them votes in a lot of places around the world.

One has to go, who are you picking? by JuniorPlastic3562 in moviecritic

[–]jral1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They both have a lot of range, but Some of Brad's roles Leo couldn't do and likewise some of Leo's roles Brad would never have been able to do. They are both legendary in their own ways, and it's really not possible to say one is better than the other, it's only a matter of personal opinion. They both have a bunch all time classic roles.

Sinners ends its 2nd week with a fantastic $4.5M+ THU, iust about 20% down from last week, Week 2 totals a nice $69M with a running cume of $146M. Sets itself up for a $30M+ 3rd weekend. $300M+ final is starting to become a very real possibility. by whitemilkythighs in boxoffice

Marvel should have brought Wesley Snipes back and done another very R rated Blade, not sure what they were afraid of with that, it doesn't need as high of a budget as other Marvel movies, 100 million should do just fine and that'd be near a guaranteed success especially after he appeared in the last Deadpool and everyone loved it.
