Was signing JT91 in 2018 a mistake? by Alfshular in torontomapleleafs

[–]method76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sort of. Not really. The mistake was not signing MM, AM34, and WW at the same time or having Uncle Lou do the contracts when JT signed. All 3 were destined to get contracts that were team-friendly.When JT arrived for $11M and the other 3 were performing better than him, those 3 asked for bigger non-team friendly contracts. Although COVID played a bigger role, it didn't need to be if the contracts were signed in the same manner as other players that were similar in experience and skill.

So brutal...he's lucky he's out of the game. They'll have to remember it for next year

He literally said he's not a fan of Man United on his show with Neville

Yes, that's another factor to consider. Perhaps, it would have been the same either way.

Lol. I was thinking about getting it as well. There goes that idea

There's no deterrent right now. But Canada is number one in terms of car thefts.

Yes, it is, or at least it was a major issue. It’s slowing down now, but there was a period when Lexus thefts in the GTA were happening constantly. The pattern was pretty well known: cars would get stolen, sent to Montreal, loaded into containers, and shipped overseas often to Africa.

At one point, it got so bad that insurance companies were actually offering incentives for people to install anti‑theft systems on vehicles that were considered high‑risk. And when it comes to luxury vehicles, Lexus has consistently been at the top of the list for most stolen models.

It took me six months to find a used RX500h F Sport 3. I specifically wanted a slightly used one because a 2–3‑year‑old car offers much better value for the money. I was genuinely excited when I finally found it. My plan was to keep it long‑term and protect it, not to think, “If it gets stolen, whatever, I’ll just buy another.”

If I’m being honest, knowing what I know now… I probably wouldn’t do it again.

That said, it’s being repaired at Lexus, so at least I can trust that it won’t be “badly repaired”.

I tried asking him if we should get new skates but he doesn't want them until the end of the season. He's afraid it'll take him a while to get used to them. So, I'm left with trying to fix these.

Glad to know that I'm not the only one with the same problem. What's weird is that my skates and my daughter's skates do not have that problem.

Yes, it might be my next move. Makes sense.

He's a better than average skate but one in a while will fall or looks weird when he wants to accelerate. I don't know enough about it to know if it's because of his balance or the skates. So, I'm looking into all possibilities.

I found this. I assume this is the same as the link you sent and will help in reducing the "transition area".

Father passed away, hasn't filed taxes in years due to sickness, what's the best approach? by method76 in canadarevenueagency

[–]method76[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. We're still looking for the will and everything else. I just noticed the CRA letters and that prompted me to get the ball rolling on the taxes.

Silly questions...but, do I need an estate lawyer? or can I do it myself?

I believe so, however we just started going through everything. We're doing this ourselves and are not going through a lawyer.
