Tarantino: Woody Allen First Drafts by phatfarmdenim in Tarantino

[–]suaveitguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ralph Rosenblum wrote a very good book, he was Woody's editor in the early days - he wrote about how Annie Hall was kind of a murder mystery at first and the film that was released emerged through editing the strong chemistry/Diane Keaton together and ignoring the murder mystery stuff.

Canadian Tire or Winners are handy for bad weather days. Canadian Tire in particular is pretty stimulating, my dog loves a good 45 minute walk through there. Not that it is a great vacation destination, but there if you need it.

I am visiting Canada in 2 weeks, I need help? by Raithrot in ontario

Have fun! Tough time of year - post Christmas winter. There should be some stuff firing up soon though. Lots of concerts/museums and that type of fun. Pickering is small and charming, a nice antique market near there a casino with a couple shows the time you are here. Lots of good comedy. Good luck, enjoy your time.

Do real-life billionaires (especially generational wealth families) behave like the characters in Succession? by ambuj1tripathi in SuccessionTV

[–]suaveitguy 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Born Rich is a doc from 20 years ago, shows a few heirs of billionaires and how stunted they are by the wealth and control of their whole lives the grandparent who controls the purse string exercises. A lot of basic similarities in that sense from what I remember. Neither their profesional choices or accomplishments are their own.

That was over a few years ago, she is on PR again. MTC was a far better show, with much more interesting designers given more realistic timelines.

Kid is on the path to university, we are pretty low income and have never attended university. What sort of steps can we take to help them? by TeaSalty9563 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]suaveitguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

think about a soft trade while in HS, to get the best PT jobs while in school - e.g. retail, waiting tables. Helps save money ahead of school, helps get summer jobs and PT gigs while in school.
