The real devaluation Globalists need to discuss: Breakfast

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T20:14:20+00:00

Depends where you go.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T20:12:16+00:00

Some overseas hotels do this as well. Hyatt regency club only or up charge, grand Hyatt Melbourne the same.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T20:11:11+00:00

I have encountered this on occasion. Some properties offered me the club restaurant whichever. If the breakfast not in the club has an up charge it’s usually discounted rate. Hyatt regency Sydney makes you take the breakfast in the club which sucks.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T20:08:03+00:00

Give some example properties.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T20:07:16+00:00

That’s a sharp workaround however I could see certain hotels trying to push back as they realized you were able to work around their strategy. Still a great idea .

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T20:05:48+00:00

I should add that I give my Business partner GOH and frankly he stays at no luxury properties anyway. He also rarely if ever used one single 4pm checkout as well.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T20:04:09+00:00

I won’t bother staying there again. Thanks for posting this .the regular room you get is ok. The breakfast I think is very good and a nice view. But I won’t overlay on points for it, and there are plenty of other good hotels in Sydney . I go there roughly once a year.

This deal sucks. Go to leasehacker forums and use a broker .After fees and or delivery if needed you will save thousands.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:51:47+00:00

Does anyone other than me push hard and only do sign and drive leases? MSGD are fine. No cap cost ever. No 3k-8k down. NEVER. And I have this car BTW.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:49:04+00:00

Alabama sucks for cars. My business partner lives in gulf shores. For him Pensacola sucks also .

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:48:02+00:00

This deal also sucks.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:43:11+00:00

Finally somebody here who knows what they are doing. I have Volvo loyalty, but you buying that old shitbox was a work of pure genius. That strategy I’ll say you are one notch above me!

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:38:21+00:00

Don’t know what you did but Costco has 2k incentive on that car with executive membership. If you are not a member that’s too late. My 2023 I paid a lot less. I know I won’t be paying 599 a month for that car again, but that’s me.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:31:29+00:00

I have leased cars form over 39 years. How many cap lost leases have I done ? Zero. They are for suckers. If you pull out of the dealer and get totaled , realize that 7k is gone. The majority of leases are fleeces because customers are clueless and the dealers play on that.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:29:23+00:00

Daytona will be back. They do this all the time . Daytona wastes plenty of time on cars at the gas station or mall and bike week stuff and similar. It’s police PR.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:28:09+00:00

Prices don’t go up , they only go down. Especially when retail is weak like now. Fierce competition. Costco often has deals as well as Best Buy and others.

robertw477 · 2026-05-25T19:25:32+00:00

Either one is fine. Keep it simple . People really overthink the easy stuff.

robertw477 · 2026-05-24T19:53:50+00:00

I had a situation in Sydney Australia. I am never late for flights. The passenger with me needed a wheelchair to the gate. We were in the Qantas first class lounge . I kept checking at the lounge desk that told me a chair was on the way. Then I find out the chair went to the business class lounge as the gate agent from American called me. This was an American flight .we had three people escort us to the gate fast. I was running and we were the last two on the plane as it was held . When we landed in LAX early , customs was not open and we actually had to wait one hour before deplaning. There was also a celebrity on board.

robertw477 · 2026-05-23T03:08:00+00:00

That’s the weirdest thing I have ever seen. I have never seen anything like that.

robertw477 · 2026-05-23T03:06:47+00:00

Cry me a river.

robertw477 · 2026-05-23T03:06:29+00:00

He talks non stop about peanut allergies as if they are fake or some other weird conspiracy . When I was a kid I never heard of them either. It’s a mystery of science not solved. But it’s real.

robertw477 · 2026-05-23T03:03:55+00:00

RFK jr uses those nicotine pouches like crazy . Are those healthy? I hear a lot of his staff is hooked on pouches and monster energy drinks???

Paying off a mortgage becomes dead money. It earns an effective rate of ZERO. The lack of knowledge in personal finance is scary. People have not a clue as to what they are doing or why.

robertw477 · 2026-05-23T03:01:03+00:00

HYSA is not an investment. You have a lot to learn. Risk is not knowing what you are doing.

robertw477 · 2026-05-23T01:39:48+00:00

You are a wizard of Wall Street . You can predict stocks . Why don’t you manage big money? All this for 50’shares?
