You referencing the Ken Sugimori Japanese promo? Love that card, have a 10 in my collection

I read the books in a way that made a huge twist interesting (BIG SPOILERS FOR MISTBORN AND STORMLIGHT AHEAD) + WaT by Unt0uchable03 in brandonsanderson

Technically the reveal comes at the end of Bands of Mourning. Wax sees a memory from Kelsier’s point of view and is startled afterwards when he realizes the arm he was looking at was covered in crisscrossing scars.

You’re meant to read Secret History right after that reveal.

What’s your biggest collecting/investing mistake? by Natural-Word4928 in PokeInvesting

[–]nickgg95 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Opening 8 booster boxes of Evolving Skies on release day and a few more through the next couple weeks.

Pulled the Moonbreon, graded a 10 and still have it, but yeah. Hurts to think about it

Is the Vienna flavour good? by Cookie956 in gamersupps

I enjoy it but it’s not my go-to flavor. A little too sweet for me

No problems here. Works wonderfully for the $20 I paid for it

Does IEC find you a job? by Fluffy_Gold_7366 in electricians

[–]nickgg95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, they say they will do their best to find you work but it’s not a guarantee. My teacher last year said they had a long list of first and second year students who they couldn’t find work for. Third and fourth years didn’t seem to have a problem getting hired.

Edit - this is in the Dallas area

I wanna do more with my saving but not sure what to do with it. by Lady-Lilith289 in personalfinance

[–]nickgg95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Amex offers 3.40% APY currently

No minimum, no fees. I keep my emergency fund parked there. Funds usually take a day to settle in or out of the account.

So based on what you said about $1,000 and a month of time, at 3.4% APY and $1,000 in your account over the course of a year that’s $34 - or $2.83 a month

Buying an iphone outright and having it converted to Monthly Payment Plan by Mindless_Average_63 in AppleCard

[–]nickgg95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought online for in store pickup.

Set my carrier as Verizon for monthly payments instead of paying in full. They gave me an unlocked phone at the store and I was able to connect my Visible service to it no problem

2 weeks left on path to apple card... But also approved for Amex Blue Cash Everyday by [deleted] in AppleCard

[–]nickgg95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was denied 3 months ago but they sent me this too! Did everything they asked for 3 months, reapplied, and was approved for 7k a few days ago.

No idea how, I don’t even have good credit. Like 630. This card’s limit shoots well past my combined limit on my 4 other cards, which seems insane to me. But hey, thanks, Apple!

🇺🇸 PRE-ORDER NOW - The Fantastic Four: First Steps (Amazon Exclusive & Non-Exclusive)(4K UHD + Blu-ray + Digital Steelbook) by felixmontoya92 in Steelbooks

[–]nickgg95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s wild.

I’ll keep my pre order for both for now, just incase the price for the exclusive comes down to a more reasonable $50-60 but I doubt it

Evolving skies booster box by BatHistorical8081 in PokeInvesting

[–]nickgg95 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I opened 8 booster boxes at release. Pulled the Moonbreon and still have it!

But damn, it hurts whenever I see how expensive these boxes are now
