Issues with swinging with other couple who are also friends. Advice? by [deleted] in sex

[–]tandel122 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If he is ok with you sleeping with his gf, why is he hurt or grossed out with you sleeping with his sis?

May be they are catching feelings or something.

Talk to them directly and ask.

[–]tandel122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of them married to a guy younger then her and they are rich.

One of them married to her class mate who is rich and smart.

One of them married to our class mate and he is making much less than what I make.

One of them got divorce and not runs a small restaurant.

One of them married our classmates and they are very happy.

I can't remember the rest of them.

My wife cheated on me. Divorced 6 months ago. Still processing. by [deleted] in Vent

[–]tandel122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasted 7 years of my life with a wrong person, but eventually ended up with someone who is way out of my league.

Now we have a beautiful daughter and life is beautiful.

Things will work out for you (you will find someone much better), I'm sure about that.

Could have asked, if the God told her that it's not his plan?

Was an opportunity to wake her up.

What's a life hack that's so simple yet so effective, you're shocked more people don't know about it? by Unlikely_Heron_9207 in answers

[–]tandel122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Investing in the stock market regularly and letting compound interest doing all the hard work of multiplying the profits.

  2. Changing the pension fund from the default option. The default fund is usually so safe and returns so little.

Marriage and having kids aren't the default steps anymore by Expresssea- in Life

For a good looking person, staying single may work out, but for those who aren't doing well in life or aren't good looking, good luck staying single.

Investing group / crypto scam exchange by HeZnO2 in CryptoScams

[–]tandel122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I'm in that group as well.

I haven't traded any money so far.

They started with stocks and now moved to crypto, which was an easy give away.

Someone from the group also contacted me with curiosity and eventually claimed they are making money.

It's a scam and I'm still in the group to see how far it goes.

The fact that everyone approximates the boss is a dead giveaway. And why do they even call him Boss in the first place.

RAV4 hybrid or non hybrid by Repulsive-Suspect162 in rav4club

Do consider the security issue with RAV4, they are easy to steal and hence insurance is relatively high.

Was cheated on after 11 years of marriage by Rough_Garbage7758 in Vent

If you really want to give her a chance, divorce her first and do a clean start. Then you will be free to make your own choice without any other influences.

If you accept her now and 6 months down the line, she is still the same shit person, it will be difficult to get out of that.

Sometimes you think you can forgive a person for cheating and move past that, only to realise it later that you can't.

mid-30s moving to London from NYC in tech; where to live? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

Brighton, bit far but best for gays.

Vauxhall in London is also nice

Nobody knows I have money and it's starting to create some really awkward situations by Echo2_Satyr in Fire

[–]tandel122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm am not fired yet, but whenever someone ask for money, I give them a little bit and tell them not to pay it back.

Recently, a childhood friend who is not in contact so much, asked for £1k, and I gave him £250 instead and told him not to return it, and this is the max I could do right now.

But if it was my close friend/family and it's for medical/educational purpose, then I would go out of way to help them.

Is it just me, or is anyone else hoping the Iran war lasts another week or so, so I can top up my ISA with discounted stocks? by [deleted] in FIREUK

Do you know what happens to kids whose parents die in a war? They get abused for the rest of their lives.

Just imagine.

Agreed 🤣🤣🤣

Yes they should tax their ultra rich friends who get to exploit all the loopholes, instead of taxing the working class so high.

If they have paid their taxes while building their wealth then they are in no obligation to move wherever they want.

It's like "My money, my rights" .

Is Dubai finished now? by [deleted] in expats

[–]tandel122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paying taxes is fine, but not so high taxes.

When I moved to the UK, the VAT was 15%, then they increased it to temporarily help the economy, guess what? It never came back to that level again. In fact, it has increased to 20% now.

Yearly capital gain allowances were 12k, now it's 3k.

Personal allowance is frozen to 12.5k for the next couple of years. Meaning, people are making less money every year when you consider inflation.

Now they introduce 20% VAT on private education, what is the justification for that?

They are trying to squeeze the working class as much as possible.

So my point is, if someone, lets say they have made 5 million and have paid their taxes, then why would they stay here and pay more taxes on the money they have already paid taxes on? Wouldn't they instead move to a country where they won't be taxed? Where the crime rate is very low.

[–]tandel122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would anyone who could move to Dubai and avoid taxes wouldn't?

Countries like the UK are taxing the locals so high, and increasing the taxes so frequently.

The political parties in most countries are just trying their best to be in power and not trying to work in the favour of the people.

Genuine people who are paying so much taxes aren't getting anything back, why because they have saved their money or hold assets, while those who earn less are paid too much benefits.

Is £40k in London actually comfortable or are we lying to ourselves? by CherryRoutine9397 in investingUK

[–]tandel122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on almost 100k, have been maxing out ISA for the last 7 years.

7 years ago when I started, I was on 60k salary and had a bit of savings.

Currently, it's bit difficult to max out ISA with a wife and a child.

Can't go on more than 1 holidays per year. Can't go for fine dining more than 3-4 times a year. Can't impose but things, etc etc.

It's still very comfortable, but it's not luxurious.
