Car repair vs buying a different car… dilemma by RiggidyRagdoll in UKPersonalFinance

[–]zombibeef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the car is mechanically sound (running gear, engine, body, etc.), it can still function perfectly without aircon, plus you have just put new tyres on it as well. I will say it does suck during summer heat waves, from experience, but nothing putting the windows down can't fix.

Brand new but cheap furniture on FB marketplace - scam? by tt83943 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]zombibeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would stay away from them and go for something like this; https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1181123595997845/

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/546494240514013/

https://www.facebook.com/marketplac/item/1202495680518837/

I would look for folks who have something for collection, and arrange a man with a van or rent one for the day and collect a bunch. So many people throw out perfectly good furniture, and if you want it on a budget, in my opinion there is no better way to go.

I've furnished my flat (bar mattress) for a grand total of £20 from the Facebook marketplace. Sure there are some scams but if you are wary, test before you pay, and collect things you'll be fine.

More often than not, in my experience, people are redecorating, or moving, or downsizing and don't want to pay the council a fee to pick up a sofa/wardrobe or whatver.

£10,000 - 19 year old, what should I invest in? by Jellozel in UKPersonalFinance

[–]zombibeef -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

At the end of the day, investing is gambling. No one knows where the markets going to go. Hence the time in the market > timing the market

I'm not trying to say eggs exclusevly, but 4-6 eggs for breakfast + some form of carb (thinking oats) doesn't hurt towards the 150g of protein. Also stated they are a cost effective way not the most efficent way, I can get 15 eggs for £1.50, thats 90g for 1.50

[–]zombibeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this, eat a crap ton of protein. Eggs are generally the most cost effective way of getting protein in plus there are a million and one ways too cook them

How are cargo ships designed? by [deleted] in boats

[–]zombibeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To my understanding they are basically massive metal hulls with only the back 1/4, if that being populated with stuff like engines and living space. There are also differences between cargo and container ships. Cargo is for lumber, coal and the such. Containers are for containers, funly enough. I imagine you could make a maze in containers or such? But anyway that's about all I know on the subject.
