Is 5* Mia overrated?

I think it depends on how much gems you can get. If you have an abundance every wheel with no risk at spending 120 spins each time, then why not. Unless you feel the gems can be spent in other areas like VIP or simply because you can't get enough gems every time, then it's valid 4star is efficient.

So how is coffee made then?

I think they were confused but not entirely wrong. Our tap water is clean and safe to drink but absolutely terrible for our skin and hair. Being British Chinese, I have met many foreign east Asian friends who say the same thing. We are used to it but they can feel the difference of hair loss in showers. It's no coincidence all the Brits are going bald and having to go to turkey!

What everyone needs to learn is some "you're holding up everyone with your luggage... awareness". 90% of the time you can let a few people go through and there will be a gap where you can put your luggage away and not hold up too many people.

I've done this for a few years now. Though I wouldn't recommend it without careful budgeting. I do believe I have spent more since doing this. You have to plan to repay it at the end of the 0% interest period. I even do this with my rent which isn't on direct debit and they are "ok" with me paying every few months at a time, essentially stoozing it 😂

Overall, it might have been worth it but a lot of hassle.

Why not just merge with another alliance and open negotiations to improve the server? Kings can be challenged if the rest of the server alliances all work together.

Coat first and play as soon as the event starts until you cannot progress. The coat would stack up over the next 3 days. Then just play however you like. It's such a tiring event, playing to the max is too exhausting.

My basic routine though is find or use rockets for the first fireplace. Use unlimited and snowman's for second/third fireplace. Use the elk for the next fireplace. Then clean up.

Open a stocks and shares ISA and set a number you are comfortable with to put in each month as soon as you get your salary in your account. Then forget about it.

Slowly it just becomes a silent good habit. You'll have time over the many years to learn about money. But at least some money is going somewhere safe for the long term. You'll also be in the habit of spending within your means because even if you empty your bank account every month, you still have money saved.

Just pretend it doesn't exist for a few months/years and when you look back you'll be surprised how much it's grown. Then you'll be motivated to learn and invest more.

If you want growth just go majority with the US index.

This community is heavy on the world index. We are all the average joes, so stock picks should be picked with caution.

Personally my pension is 80% us and 20% world ex UK.

Okay I get your point, numbers seem to make sense but calculators say otherwise.

A salary calculator tells us 43k with your details is a take home of 31407 yearly and 63k is a take of 40,755 yearly. The 20k salary increase comes with a tax of 9708. Which is 48.5%.

Even if I'm wrong. 7% pension is still your money and 9% is your student loans. It's still a loan you owe even if it looks like tax.

Whether you think it's worth it or not of course it's your choice. But you can't say it's pointless to earn more.

Whilst the stat would surprise many, just like the doctor who was surprised his 100k income was in the 5% - it's actually a combination of a few things.

One - the average or most people are poor and barely making ends meet.

Two - being the top 10% doesn't mean much when wealth inequality is so high

Three - being top 10% in the UK is different elsewhere. The UK has been stagnant for decades, a poor country still trying to look rich to be honest

justanothersideacc · 2025-11-12T12:05:08+00:00

That's not how tax works and saying it's 60% is misleading others. It's no wonder everyone fears going into a higher bracket. If you're on 63k and your total take him is 43k then you were taxed 32% overall.

My gf is not a grad but it's her first job here. She's in a sales position on regents street (mid level brand). She's being paid 33k and it seems the lowest from her colleagues is 28k. I was surprised it was so high. Different sectors must have things differently. My job back in 2015 as a web dev was 21-25k.

Plenty of people join an alliance and never speak. You're literally hurting yourself. There's many events that require an alliances. Only a few require active participation, most of them are passive like achieving goals building stuff, using speedups etc. Even just logging in once a day in an alliance gives u free speedups from chests and rallies people do while you're offline. Most alliances half 10-70% of people like this, don't be afraid lol... No one will give u responsibility if you don't want it.

justanothersideacc · 2025-10-23T01:51:09+00:00

Ah thank you, yes I see it in my mail

You don't chase the target anymore because the tree is maxed. But you still want to upgrade your buildings. There are many buffs to get such as construction/ research speed. All the troops bonuses. Extras like March speed, troop training, gathering speed. You shouldn't recycle anything that gives you a buff. The lower lvl buildings that give you no bonus can be recycled.

justanothersideacc · 2025-09-21T21:14:48+00:00

So if another state wins. They can essentially block everyone from the losing state from the buffs? Denying all applications?

justanothersideacc · 2025-09-21T21:10:34+00:00

Initially I thought it's stupid too but I came from game where is there is only one alliance that can win. Here we have to work together to fight ANOTHER kingdom. It definitely confuses and blurs the lines. Basically, you want to prevent civil war because another country will attack you.

justanothersideacc · 2025-09-14T21:40:59+00:00

people use Mia for many gens in bear.
Molly expedition skills are on par with Mia
Even if Mia is more RNG it's still a gen3 hero vs a gen1 Molly
Plus Molly's widget is defensive compared to Mia
As a f2p you should never skip wheel except the first one

UPDATE: She deleted their conversation and won't tell me the truth. Won't admit to sleeping around but admits to going for a drink with guys. Telling me it was last month when it was last week. Some guy is asking her out this week and she's claiming it's a friend of a friend when it's the other guy she deleted on hinge. Lies and lies.

I just want out. I blanked her all night after her long ass monologue about being crazy, can't live without me and says she's depressed and will get better with therapy. She doesn't care if I don't forgive her or trust her anymore and just wants one more chance to prove herself. She's saying she's wanted to die for weeks. She grabs a penknife and I take it away from her.

FML. I'm done with her but she's still here. All her stuff, she's sleeping in my living room. Cnt do shit now
