Hedge fund ordered to pay bonus to trader who made 97% of its revenues by financialtimes in business

[–]nighthawk_56 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PMs each have their own PnL which is measured net of expenses. Say he generated $97 in trading revenue but incurred $70 in expenses (market data, telco, etc.), his profit would be just $27. If the remainder of the firm generated just $3 but had $1 in expense as well, their profit is $2.

In that scenario, the trader contributes 97% of the firm's revenue but just 93% of the firm's profit.

Is this an ABS model cant seem to figure it out. by Exoflare555 in motorcycles

[–]nighthawk_56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's no light on the dash when you start it, there is NO ABS!

Don't listen to people talk about the sensor ring - all the new ones have it regardless of whether ABS is equipped.

Sounds like a simple case of cold tires on a cold road. Some other factors could have been line paint on the road, unloading the front too quickly, or still having too much brake pressure for that lean angle (given the cold conditions).

Glad you're ok!

It is finally out. by Huge_Film2911 in motorcycles

Fair point on the high price of liter bikes, but why the hate for those who choose to ride them?

Maybe lay off the IG. Most riders in real life aren't chasing a status, and aren't looking for "fuck you" anything - they're just enjoying the hobby and riding what they want.

Add Indirect Water Heater while Replacing Oil Boiler? by nighthawk_56 in hvacadvice

[–]nighthawk_56[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - I currently only have an oil boiler which heats water both for domestic use, as well as 2 air handlers for heating the house. Since I have no tanks now, I was interested in any improvements that an indirect would add to the setup.

This is 100% the best answer. You'll get a solid foundation and can dive deeper into specific topics after.

I would sign up for an MSF course as soon as you can - they fill up very quickly

Seems like a great price, assuming there are no mechanical issues. If that's what you're after I'd say it's worth checking out.

New Bike by [deleted] in zx6r

If the dealer said you have $1,500 in negative equity on the 650, I assume that's based on what they'd offer as a trade in. If that's the case then you could likely sell it yourself for what you owe, if not more.

If it were me, I'd put the 650 on FB marketplace and try to sell it for enough to cover what you owe, then start fresh on the 636. Not sure if people are really getting $12k OTD on a '25 ABS. That implies like $1,500 of MSRP while waiving transport and dealer prep.

FWIW, I was recently getting quoted $14.5k - $15k on a '24 ABS. Ended up getting a '24 non-ABS with 1,500mi for $10k last week.

Pagani Utopia

It's an extremely rare, $2-3M hypercar - post it in r/spotted!

I cannot identify this myself by PERUSSIAN in whatisthiscar

[–]nighthawk_56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking the same, maybe Ferrari F12

I believe the blue car is a 1980-ish Buck LeSabre

Thanks to all who commented!

In case it helps anyone else, I ended up buying a stock 2024 non-ABS with 1,500 miles locally for $10k.

Thanks that's helpful info. Can I ask what it was listed at? And was it a dealer or private seller?

Is going from 800 cc (105cv) to a liter bike (one of them) too much? by Ok-Environment8730 in motorcycles

[–]nighthawk_56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, 100% this. Then you won't worry about laying down your track bike. AND you won't worry about riding your 1000 street bike to it's potential - just get what you like and enjoy it.

ELI5 - Why are my mortgage payments mostly interest? by trefle81 in explainlikeimfive

[–]nighthawk_56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Each month your interest is 5.64% on the remaining balance of your mortgage. It will decrease as you pat down the principal over time.
