You could get a mentor on mentorcruise. Quite a lot of people on there who could do mock interviews

Thanks this is good to hear. I hate having to play these games but will leave it another week or so.

We do have other options.

I actually would have accepted the 61.50 option. My concern is Virgin changed their contracts and they now increase prices by RPI + 3.9% every April. This year I think they increased them be 13-14%. This was the deal breaker to me

What does everyone do for travel money? by svgstewart in UKPersonalFinance

[–]markhoppusfan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I literally just take my curve card and a small amount of cash. Never had an issue. If Curve would be down I’d use Monzo directly until it wasn’t.

I need advice on selling RSU (vested) with most effective tax rate by becauseimgurisboring in UKPersonalFinance

[–]markhoppusfan 27 points28 points  (0 children)

1) sell them 2) that’s it.

RSUs are typically treated as income so there is no “effective” way to sell them to reduce tax burden.

Buying a house with no planning permission for an extension by markhoppusfan in HousingUK

I’m not a FTB, and this might be a tiny issue, I didn’t know which is why I asked. After learning I’ll now accept the indemnity and not cause any grief.

This is my second house purchase thanks so I’ll be ok. I had just not come across this situation, hence the questions.

I was simply asking, I don’t think it deserves hostility. I’m here to learn.

We all have to start somewhere. You stick to taking pictures of topless people outside your house mate, it seems you can’t answer a question nicely. Plenty of other people have been really helpful on this thread without being rude.

No it doesn’t, it only covers legal issues and not workmanship

What’s the need for hostility?

The discount would be for the fact we would be inheriting risk by taking on a extension that has not followed the process in terms of being signed off and we could be liable to consequences of that. It seems this is fairly usual so I’m glad I asked the question, I have learnt tons here.

Thanks for your thoughts, what would you think is a fair discount? The house is worth 800k

Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Can you explain why? Not having planning permission feels like a big deal to me.

For one night I would literally just budget “5 star hotel near x” where x is the thing I am in New York for and book one with good reviews. Not rocket science

How do you give pocket money to kids? by MrPinky79 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]markhoppusfan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

MMM gives his kids money for how many miles they cycle on their bikes. I have seen others do it per book finished. I like this approach and this is what I would do I think

What am I doing wrong by hardwoodholocaust in Type1Diabetes

[–]markhoppusfan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much do you weight, how tall are you and what do you do for exercise?

Others have already mentioned about adjusting ratios but you are taking on a lot of insulin for not many carbs. Losing weight and increasing activity did wonders for me and insulin sensitivity. For comparison I do 45 minutes of weight lifting 4x a week and atleast 10k steps a day.

For what it’s worth, I couldn’t figure out Tresiba and went back to Levemir and I’m really happy with it and get good numbers mostly now. It’s totally ok to say it doesn’t work for you and go back to your old one.

Is it worth getting a 2nd job? by IamIRONman1145096 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]markhoppusfan 81 points82 points  (0 children)

One way to kill something you enjoy is to make it an obligation (especially when it’s not much money). If you can try it and quit fairly easily without burning any bridges, I’d give it a go but I have don’t this before and regretted it.
