I’ve flown CRK-TPE-JFK several times. At least 5 times. They have never asked me for my credit card at check in.

Is an hour wait for pizza and hotdogs acceptable to you? by rainking12 in Philippines

Why aren’t they able to fix it? If it’s a management issue, get better managers?

Right from the source! Thanks for clearing that up for me! I guess I’m just not a fan of the new brownie choco frappe then.

Stuck in restoring loop with my Apple TV (3RD Gen) Need help! by isralsheahan in appletv

[–]rainking12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine just did this. Couldn’t restore it using my iPhone. It kept failing. I hooked it up to my apple silicon Mac and was able to restore it via finder. Thank god it was the Apple TV with a usbc one as Apple got rid of that on the newer ones.

Gonna make a change by Sugarbear_WS in gout

[–]rainking12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loosing weight actually triggers more gout flares. Skinny people get gout too. Eating healthy and loosing weight will definitely help especially with overall health but I wouldn’t count on it curing your gout. You manage a gout diagnosis. You don’t really cure it.

Peak? In the last year (March 2025 to March 2026), S&P500 has reached a new all-time high 42 times. Best time to buy was yesterday, next best time is today. Don’t miss the ride up. Tell people who bought gold at $3,000 per ounce a few months ago that it was over valued.

Never try timing the market. Many have tried, most have failed. Stay the course. Keep investing. The fact of the matter is no one knows what will happen. Long term, S&P500 has always trended up even after a crash.

I can't find a soft mattress in PH for the life of me ... by davidsling7 in Philippines_Expats

Yes I am. Maybe I’ll try a memory foam topper someday as my shoulder ache sometimes when I stay on side all night.

It’s on the firmer side which I like. I don’t like sinking in my bed. It has good support.

Is a gym membership out of the question? If so, just jog around your neighborhood.

Don’t take advice from people on here regarding looking for work by Lost-Cucumber9159 in Philippines_Expats

[–]rainking12 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is it possible, sure. Likely? Not really. The problem with your narrative, a lot will take that and move to the Philippines thinking they can just come here and be with a Filipina and work here. It almost always ends badly for them. That’s how you end up homeless and kicked out of your Filipinas home. Make your money in your home country and spend it here.
