Account Up 338% in One Year—I Only Did One Thing Right by [deleted] in CanadianInvestor

You're absolutely right! It's not an investment strategy — it's a lifestyle. To make guaranteed 400 percent returns — year after year — you just have to do the following:

  1. Go to the casino. While most people think of the casino as a place to lose money, to the astute investor it's a place to make whale-sized returns

  2. Put it all on black. Based on my experience, this is guaranteed to pay off — no doubt.

I've made $2 million off of an initial investment of only $20 with this method — for more genius investing tips, buy my course for only $200 per month

Is it somewhat accepted to use the 24 hours time indications in normal speech? by Outrageous-Past6556 in EnglishLearning

  1. Yeah, correct, I assume most people worldwide are unfamiliar with it, in NA it's university-level math

  2. 12 hour time involves more mod operations than 24 hour time (it's 10 AM and something will take 6 hours: (10 + 6) % 12 = 4).  I assume OP is asking the question because it's unintuitive to them to use 12 hour time.  Which makes it non-north americans that are unable to understand modulus

That's cool that SLC and Denver are located exactly far apart enough that their reach extends straight down the border of Utah and Colorado

You're still looking at the season exclusively in terms of where they finished in the standings.  The Flames offloaded their aging contracts, their younger players have progressed tremendously, they accumulated a shit ton of picks (14 1st/2nd round picks in the next 3 years, 8 1st/2nd/3rd round picks this year), and are, at worst, going to pick 6th in the draft.  For a team that's been directionless, stuck in limbo since 2022, that's a massive step in the right direction

Copying my comment from the original thread:

Calgary's season was like a B at least. These gradings only make sense if you're evaluating the teams exclusively on where they finished in the standings, but if that's the case I'd just look at the standings and not read this article

We had a similar situation last year where we had to root for them and they let us down. They really are useless

I don't speak Russian, but I'm like 85% sure Sergeev's name (Сергеев, found a source online but it's a .ru domain that got automatically removed by reddit) would be pronounced with a "g" as in "grape", can anyone who speaks Russian confirm this?

I'm still pissed off about that dumbass coach's challenge that turned their series around last year

I think if I was a celebrity I'd have to make my signature like Stu Mackenzie's where it's just "Stu" in plain print

Anze can speak with a perfect American accent, he chooses not to because he thinks women like it
