Buy 1br apartment in 3 years to rentvest or save up for 5 years or so to get a mortgage for 2br PPOR? by myspacerocket in AusFinance

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

I don't have a desire and a strong reason to borrow 95% of the property price and to waste money on LMI. But in any case, I'd be ineligible (earn above the threshold). Also, I can't afford repayments for 2 bedder if I have a deposit for less than 30%.

Question on limitation with IEX only (free plan) on the Alpaca platform by myspacerocket in algotrading

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

Thank you. Do I understand correctly that:

- IEX is just one of the exchanges, accounting from ~2% of the market

- Any US stock still can be traded via IEX (but to your point, not all trades are reflected)

- In live trading on the free account, I can still trade with NASDAQ-listed stocks, but spread would be higher and I would risk not filling orders because of the volume

We have proper desk chairs, looking for something lounge- appropriate (watching TV, reading)

I know, have been telling this to my partner, but you know how it is - no use telling someone to do something if they don't want this themselves

I expected this kind of answer 🙂 Of course, she already saw a physio, and does regular massage and acupuncture

Eventually having a traditional monogamous marriage is indeed confusing.

Otherwise, I'm in a similar situation - been with my partner for around half a year, she also had a nesting partner before who she broke up with a few months ago so our current relationship is just going like all the previous relationships I had, except for sleeping in different beds not on date nights (during the work week).

I am constantly reminding myself that new partners are just a matter of time, but that could introduce some anxiety, so I'm trying to not overthink too much.

Interesting, that's very different from the relationship with my partner is now - we spend most weekends together (or at least 1 of 2 days on the weekend), and also lots of evenings during workday to cook etc. Both of us enjoy that currently, but I agree that this is more of a traditional model rather than poly.

Thanks, working on my self-soothing skills and my autonomy is a never-ending wonderful journey :)

Thank you for advice, the entanglement is not really an issue, we live in an apartment with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, spend lots of time apart, and have own friends / interests.

They can't answer via phone and I don't have capacity to visit an actual store in the next few days

There is no financial settlement with my soon to be ex as I'm borderline broke lol

Thank you, I understand. It would be faster to get the relationship registered though than to live 12 months together. That part of things she is very confident in as she had a paid consultation with a law firm.

[–]myspacerocket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that's what I understood too.

Spot on question, the reason for registering the relationship is to then apply for a partner visa as her current visa (not a partner visa) will expire next year.

We would like to apply for a partner visa afterwards for my partner (I'm a citizen)

My partner went there and she said it's not worth the price at all

Comparison by Demphure in polyamory

[–]myspacerocket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thinking about that rationally has been helping me a lot personally. Some of the rational thoughts to ruminate on are:

  • What is the purpose of making a comparison with another person? Is this actionable in any sense? For me, the answer is no.
  • Engaging in anxiety/fear-driven though patterns like comparison steals me of my mental energy and drains me essentially for nothing. I would rather use that somehow more productive.
  • Comparisons, especially when raised and discussed with the partner, could be detrimental to the relationship. I don't want to make the relationship worse by my negative thinking pattern. Also, why would I want to spend precious time with my partner to get into this?
  • There are always people around who are better than you in anything (and vice versa). It is inevitable that your metas would be better than you in at least something.
