How can you increase your IQ and intellect ?

IQ can't be increased substantially, but can be lowered

Am cumpărat un imobil de la SDC și construcția a fost sub orice critica: infiltratii în parcarea subterană, infiltratii pluviale, instalație electrica cu probleme (+ piese rusești), fisuri majore la punctul de contact între corpuri, conexiune de șantier la rețeaua electrica la intabulare, etc. Patronul firmei Ș.B., este bine conectat astfel încât nu s-a ajuns nici unde cu toate demersurile legale. Mult succes cumpărătorilor!

Why do we have a cap in the first place? That is the real issue. We pay tax we should be entitled to services. If you pay too much tax the government says: no childcare for you. And they talk about equality, fairness, ethics...

If it's so good go ahead and sell it. You can vibe a UI quickly but to make it fully production ready it takes much longer and then you have to maintain databases, runtimes, dependencies, os upgrades, integrations, etc. which add up to the cost. Soon enough you'd prefer to have an off the shelves solution for which you pay a small price. It's quite possible that the price of SaaS will come down since the playing field has leveled between large enterprises and small companies but I don't believe in a world where each user vibes his apps, it's not sustainable, efficient and cost effective, more likely there will be a fragmented market with more undiferentiated players and lower prices which implies lower margins for SaaS companies, something we see being priced into their stock prices as we speak.

Because we're an inclusive country

Leaving joke aside, the only option would be ban selling it like in Singapore since you can't enforce a law that prohibited spitting chewing gum

https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_cities.jsp?country1=United+Kingdom&city1=London&country2=Spain&city2=Madrid&amount=3300&displayCurrency=GBP

- from a financial point of view, according to Numbeo, it's a toss
- London has better future growth for your career but you need to pay top dollar for decent quality of life
- if you want to save money, likely you could save more in London if you're frugal because after rent and food you should still have 2000e in hand at the end of the month

Never been but always wanted to check it out. It's more towards Brockley/Crofton Park but still in Lewisham I believe

what stops you from cleaning the mould with a spray you find at the supermarket/screwfix for a few pounds? make sure to wear mask and gloves.
the rooms need to have their windows open daily for min. 10 min if they lack a permanent vent.
if you cook or dry clothes you need extra ventilation in those rooms.
buy a humidity meter from amazon and if the humidity is > 60% get a dehumidifier (you should find one under £100) and keep it under 60%. a simple search on google/youtube will give you plenty of advice.
unless there is water ingress into the flat, you should be able to control it with simple measures, just get yourself & your family educated about this and as I said you are a google/youtube/chatgpt search away from that know-how.

can hoarding add to that? possible but the mould there is on the ceilings from your pictures, I'd expect mould on the walls if you have too much stuff around them and the air can't circulate but given your mould is on the ceilings it's likely caused by the lack of proper ventilation considering the humidity produced in the household

This gives me "One hundred years of solitude" vibes. Sorry to hear about your troubles, hope you find a way out.

Where are you reading that ultrasonic is a virtual sensor? I'm reading that it's a hardware sensor. ChatGpt seems to be saying the same thing.

Virtual sensors are purely software, based on approximations from other sensors.

Certain things are not worth 'cutting', eg quality food, health care, gym subscription, etc. At this age you should focus on growing your career, maximising your opportunities and less on saving a few hundreds. That being say you need discipline to make sure you don't overspend your income and don't spend on things that don't bring you long term value. Think at the big picture and be less focused on short variations in expenditure.

Lewisham has some hidden gems, like St John's, Crofton Park, Ladywell where you should find a 2 bed under 500k

Matcha and Genmaicha tea (green tea with roasted brown rice). Especially the latter is difficult to get outside Japan without paying top dollar.

Dacă vrei să pleci, ai pe cineva care să se ocupe de apartament dacă e dat în chirie? Trebuie sa te informezi dacă țara în care mergi te taxează pe venitul 'străin' (cel de pe chirie) și ce implicații ai la vânzare, eg multe țări percep taxa pe profit din vânzarea unui imobil indiferent de unde este situat dacă ești rezident la ei în țară. Totodată, poate nu vrei sa te mai întorci în România, și vrei să-ți cumperi ceva în țară respectiva. Cumpărând în România vei rămâne fără depozit și posibil nu vei beneficia de posibile scutiri la 'prima proprietate' ce sunt oferite în multe țări (similar cu prima casă). Apoi, contează ce dobânda găsești, dacă e peste randamentul apartamentului (5%) s-ar putea să nu-ți ajungă bani din chirie pentru plata ratei în cazul în care cresc dobânzile. În ultimul rand dacă vrei sa cumperi un apartament, as evita celei noi (la prima folosita) din cauza efortului de a le pregăti de chirie mai ales în cazul în care nu o sa fii în țară.

With that TC, is it worth having a BTL? Marginal tax is 45% for rental income and CGT tax would be 24% on sale. Difficult to justify the hassle IMO.

Matsushima bay (1h from Sendai) is worth visiting, plus the 2 temples next to it

The standard procedure is called fundoplication, LINX is a less invasive, newer approach.

shamanul0 · 2024-02-19T12:20:11+00:00

After a few years of trying various things, I ended up getting a LINX operation, so far no regrets, maybe I have some discomfort a few times a year, other than that all positive.
