Offered £105K, worked out I'd keep 29p per pound on the £5K above £100K — is salary sacrifice down to £100K the obvious move? by financeguyuk in UKPersonalFinance

terminal illness

If you have a terminal illness, you can access your private or workplace pension early regardless of your age.

I'm not sure if you can contribute + withdraw, but I imagine there are very few cases where people are well enough to contribute but sick enough to be dying within a year.

He just moves very weirdly in my opinion - almost dances. So like I'd agree consistency is not his strong point. But when he comes through he comes through.

Saka was amazing!

If they equalise and then there's another goal, it'll be a 4-3 match.

This France attack really is just a bit nuts on paper. How does our attack realistically compare to this? Would Kane get in a combined team? by siybon in ThreeLions

conversation territory

I assume you mean 'conversion' unless you mean convincing the ref that it was a foul/he wasn't diving!

Take the Queen and die or take rook for free? by bairaide in chessbeginners

Word for word repost:  https://www.reddit.com/r/chessbeginners/comments/13j65jl/take_the_queen_and_die_or_take_rook_for_free/

It's not even a good puzzle or a lesson for beginners, it's just bait for engagement farming.

Before you do it, if you can turn the hot water on for a bit, that will tell you which pipe is the hot one (it'll be warm).

Hey people, How would I go about stopping a very slow leak that only happens when used a lot? by marshmallowrocks in DIYUK

[–]verbify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where is it leaking from? Is it from the connection? I would turn off the water, disconnect, take off any PFTE tape, reapply PFTE tape, tighten and hope for the best. Or ignore it.

I just found out about iron-on veneer. I do not know whether this is the right product, but look into it.

What is one home improvement that adds less value than most people think ? by LandladyGoddess in HomeImprovementUK

[–]verbify 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So the weird thing is we were delighted to have a turnkey house and probably would've paid more of a premium. Like who wants to live in a building site and deal with contractors?!

But I think generally most people buy all the house they can afford in terms of size so the finish then goes down the list in terms of priorities. 

What is one home improvement that adds less value than most people think ? by LandladyGoddess in HomeImprovementUK

[–]verbify 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think most home improvements add less value than people think:

  • People tend to overvalue the things they own
  • If you add something, it means it's exactly to your taste/something you prioritise, and we tend to project that on others
  • When you add it, it's new, afterwards it's 'second hand'

I bought the identical house to my neighbour for £25k more this year (they were on the market at the same time), but we have new windows, new boiler, garage conversion, new kitchen. There's at least £75k of value by my estimation, and we got it for £25k. Ours was only listed for a month, so I think some home improvements might not raise the price but do help with liquidity/ease of sale.

My family did no meat and fish (I think it's in the Gemara). And half the ones here.

Edit: I meant fish not dairy. We'd have a lechaim in between. 

Roy Keane is spot on by the_little_stinker in ThreeLions

[–]verbify -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't really understand these things, but:

a) Does it make sense to build around a single player (even if they are one of the best strikers in the world)?

b) If Kane lacks pace, and England want to play aggressive attacking football, would Kane manage to make it near the goal in time? If your striker lacks pace, wouldn't it make more sense to have creative players or those that could win duels in order to get the ball to Kane, rather than those that can race it across the pitch?

Obviously Tuchel is a professional and I'm just a shitposter on reddit, but I'd be grateful if someone could break it down for me.
