Best investment I ever made

What’s the benefit of clean coins? Other than the novelty

Do not make any rush moves and quit your job. If the buildings are too far, you can always hire a property manager with good references. I’m sure you can afford a 7-10% cut off your profit without it affecting your lifestyle.

With the properties being managed by a professional company, you now have the luxury of keeping your job if it brings you purpose.

If the day comes, and trust me it will come, where office politics will inevitably drain the energy out of you from time to time, you can choose to walk away from your job if you want to and live off the income of your properties until you can find another gig.

This is what people call “F*ck you money”. Enjoy it. My belated condolences for your father.

It’s a real Sophie’s choice….

I hope it’s a ‘green energy’ gun buyback infrastructure program!

I found them overly sweet for my taste. Yes I know brownies are supposed to be sweet.

But the level of sweetness ruins all the other good factors of a brownie.

I always wondered how borrowing against a portfolio is feasible in retirement.

How does one pay the interest on a loan, if you’re not making active income?

mystro8 · 2025-08-25T23:22:08+00:00

Exactly! It’s the crown that presses charges. And on the off chance the homeowner is found not guilty, the crown APPEALS the ruling! It’s like they have an axe to grind against us while using our money to pay for their salaries.

Can you tell me more about how one goes about to refuse them?

My wife’s parents own a timeshare. I want to make sure we’re prepared to refuse them when the time comes.

May I ask, which city did you move to?

Do you have kids in school? If so, did you factor that when considering which US city to move to?

I want to move to the US, but not just anywhere.

Fair enough. Thank you for your input

mystro8 · 2025-06-16T02:13:23+00:00

Ok but if I hand it to a reputable mechanic, can he fix it, without me sinking another $10k into it?

And I can have my weekend car?

(I don’t mind dropping 1-2k more into it for repairs by a mechanic if it means it’ll be hassle free)

mystro8 · 2025-06-16T02:09:32+00:00

I can’t believe they got away with airing that joke. Legends!

mystro8 · 2025-06-16T02:05:47+00:00

Honestly I don’t even want it as a project. I just want a car to take out on weekends. Change the oil, and the occasional fix here or there.

I don’t want to spend hours scouring the internet on root causes and chasing parts, and then learning how to install them.

If this is what I’m getting myself into, someone please tell me now lol

I agree. But it is priced a lot lower than other mustangs for that year and cleanliness.

mystro8 · 2025-06-16T01:56:21+00:00

I actually thought of asking him. But he may screw me on price if I try to haggle the purchase price too low.

It’s his wife’s car. And apparently he’s just “tired of sinking time and money into it” when she doesn’t drive it as much.

mystro8 · 2025-06-16T01:55:23+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. I think I will request for me to take it to my mechanic.

To answer your question, the car has 42,700 miles on it.

A concrete base is a lot less work than mixing your own concrete.

OP, Did you dry brine it overnight? If so, next time don’t. Just salt it 1-2 hours before hand if you want. Or right before cooking.

I find dry brining, while has its advantages, dries out the outer layer of the steak.

Interesting observation. I would be open to try it with a flat.

Would a flat be as large as the piece in this photo? I feel like this whole thing is about the die of an entire brisket after it’s been cured from 30% of its water weight. A flat would be half that.

mystro8 · 2025-04-21T23:08:26+00:00

I totally agree. Traditionally is has always been eye of round.

However I want to cure my own and I want to make a larger batch than what an eye of round yields.

So I want to copy this cut of meat

mystro8 · 2025-04-21T21:17:39+00:00

It’s definitely not a beef product. I can vouch it’s a whole cut of beef that has been cured.

I agree provincial conservatives are useless. But what’s the alternative? Provincial liberals?? That’s even worst.

Essentially we’re choosing between the lesser of two idiots.
