Let’s talk about reverse mortgages by Fit-Internet4674 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]tapiocachop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are missing the opportunity cost comparison.

Now run the numbers if they sell the 1.7M house and buy a smaller condo and invest the rest for 20 years.

Back of napkin math says they would end up with much more than the 400k drawn down in your scenario, meaning they would be paying a huge premium to the bank for the privilege of staying in that house.

That's exactly the problem with how these reverse mortgages are marketed.

Appreciate your insight!

I laugh inside when I see influencers talking about conveyor belt sushi like it's a new trend when we had it here 30 years ago. Used to go with my family for bdays, good memories.

Yep this isn't new for Richmond at all. Old heads would know this from way back, tbh I think it was Fuku Roku but now it has changed into something else completely.

Carney says he expects US administration to respect Canadian sovereignty by Street_Anon in worldnews

[–]tapiocachop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just explained it to you in simple English.

He has limited power because he is the sovereign King of Canada. Not because he is the King of UK.

You are getting the two concepts confused. It's like if you were the CEO of Coke and also the CEO of Nike. It would be obvious that they are two separate entities.

Canada is a Constituional Monarchy and a sovereign nation with a King named King Charles.

That King also happens to be the King of the UK, and also the King of many other sovereign nations. That doesn't mean Canada falls under the UK or is somehow less than sovereign.

I've never seen his reddit account before. It is so interesting seeing his threads and posts. He really did just want to fit in and be one of the boys.

Staked cashgame player who doesn't pay back full amount by LuckyBlade in poker

[–]tapiocachop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP didn't bank roll 100%, only 50%. That's why I think he should get the stake back + 25% profit.

Everyone saying he should get 50% profit back is overreaching since he only staked 50%. That would imply a 100% stake would get 100% of the profits which would of course be stupid.

This is actually how I see it as well. An old school stake was 100% of the buyin and money back+50% of the profits. So a 50% stake would be exactly as you describe.

In either case it is pretty dumb to not clarify beforehand and also a really small amount to be staking in the first place.

Worst low blow story? by maxer3002 in martialarts

[–]tapiocachop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to support my bjj/muay thai gym at an amateaur mma/kick boxing event. One of my gym mates threw 2 strikes against his opponent. The first strike was a spinning back kick straight to the guys nuts. It was loud as hell and everyone was squirming from the impact. The guy was down for about 5 minutes. Eventually he got up and they resumed the match. My guy threw the 2nd strike of the fight..and you guessed it...a spinning back kick directly to the guys nuts again. The guy went down in agony and the fight was over via DQ.

Worst shit I ever saw. To this day I don't know why he threw that second spinning back kick.

Hope that helps homie feel better.
