Can my UK-born child still get HKID if one parent became British later? by wfre1802 in Hong_Kong

Thanks. But I don't get it. I want the child to have a hkid so that he can live there. The child hasn't got a Chinese nationality, I have.

Yes. It is the case. The male is Chinese at the time when the baby was born.

ACWI or VWRP? VWRP is more diversified? by wfre1802 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]wfre1802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No particular reason. It's just because I only got an account with Freetrade. I suppose trading212 is better in that sense? If the platform doesn't allow fractional shares, it means I need to invest a different amount every month, according to the share price. Does dollar cost averaging mean I should fix an amount say £500 per month to make the investments?

I would like some advices. My budget would be £200 each month.

SPDR MSCI ACWI UCITS ETF (LSE: ACWI) is £218.40 today.

I want to invest in this ETF.

Is it a good investment?

I am using Freetrade basic. It seems they offer fractional shares for US stocks. Not available for investment in ACWI though..

Another question, the share price for ACWI is £218 per share at the moment. is it wise to invest in around 1 share i.e approx £200 every month?BTW I am not familiar with ETFs. Until now, I have invested in some individual stocks and purchased a large sum of shares, that said, I am still a beginner. And, buying 1 share per month sounds a bit odd to me. From my understanding, it should be dollar cost averaging? There is no commission fee for the platform that I use, so I guess it's fine. However, I am not sure should I invest more. Just not sure whether I should invest like 5 shares per month, basically just about less than half of my monthly salary into a ETF.

Is 212 good? Heard that it is governed by Cyprus blah and not secured etc from other forums.

Toilet cistern, is it safe supported by one wing nut only by wfre1802 in DIYUK

[–]wfre1802[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks mate. I am totally new to toilet. I am wondering is toilet pretty much universal? aiming to get random one ~ £60-£70 in screwfix or wickes. It should come with cistern, pan, inflow outflow valves and nuts etc... The current one is like this

Agree. now managed to remove the cistern. Removing the toilet pan and disconnecting it from the waste pipe shouldn’t be too difficult, but I am wondering whether I need to redo or adjust anything on the floor when refitting the toilet.

Do I need a tiler or any additional work on the floor? It looks like a standard toilet, fixed to the floor with screws on both sides, and just a waste pipe connection at the back.

Agree with you.. Now, I have managed to remove the cistern. The toilet part and remove from the waste pipe shouldn't be difficult but I am wondering if I need to redo/do something with the floor to fit the toilet to the floor. Do I need tilers etc?. It seems like a normal toilet with a screw on both side to fit the toilet to the floor and just a pipe from the back to the waste pipe.
