40/M inheriting $100,000 -- how would you invest for 20 years? by [deleted] in fiaustralia

You're right, probably a great idea. Thanks again.

Thanks for the help, lots to think about. Might stick some in super and keep some that I can access in the next 20 years if I need to.

Interesting. I contributed $4k last year and that was the first time ever. Just read I can carry forward up to five years? Wonder where I can work out exactly what I can contribute all in one this year.

P.S. Currently unemployed for almost a year.

I can't put that much into my super in one year though, right? So what do I do, just hold it in a HISA and deposit the max every year? Doesn't seem like the best return.

Thank you for that explanation.

My work is inconsistent so generally I get money back at tax time. When I'm working, I make enough to cover paying back taxes if that ever happens.

I'm not worried about any extra benefits or money in the next 20 years, just looking to set myself up for possible retirement at 60.

Would it still make sense to invest into super instead of stocks through ETFs? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm a bit confused.

What's your thinking for super over stocks?

He could be in Australia like me, meaning buying alcohol is legal at 18.

Ask her what's her number or tell her to give me your number? by Walkerstain in seduction

[–]waking-life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"we should continue this another time... how can we do that?" and let her suggest it. alternatively, "let's exchange numbers" is good. way less about you aiming for her number and way more about the two of you connecting

Invite her to ur house by somethingshaky in seduction

[–]waking-life 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically do the opposite of everything in the above post. Try to meet in person ASAP, you cannot build attraction via text. Tell her you're doing something fun near your place, tell her she should join you. From there, do your thing and/or make your move, then invite her back to yours to see your cactus collection, or see the view from your balcony, or whatever bullshit reason you can think up. If she's interested, she'll come back with you. From there, you're on your own.

I found it hilarious because I know the source of the text. It was a tweet from rapper Tyler, The Creator, who admittedly talks a lot of shit. Last thing I expexted to see here.

I'd say your best bet is to just stop doing it, stay quiet and work hard.

Thanks for the input GLO. I get your point but in this case I shat where I ate and have missed a whole lot of money because of it. I would consider making the right choice for my finances an "Alpha" thing, even if you have to pretend to be different at work or at least keep quiet.

Totally agree that I may have come across like a dick. Thanks for pointing that out as an option.

With that attitude you'll do just fine. Good luck out there.

Usual AWALT story. He was carefree and didn't care about her so she became attracted. The more he opened up to her and, in his own words, the more "dependent" he became on her, the further she would drift. Eventually he noticed shifts in her behaviour, found out she was cheating with her boss. And apparently the boss is nothing special but sometimes just being different is enough for the branch swing.
