It's for those who can't get drivers licenses. I know a girl at work who medically can't get one and doesn't have any ID except for her…

Then yes, I'm using it.

At work, I'm already just a number.

Can this do Proof of Age IDs?

> developers/writers/artists aren't getting a cent off the second hand Even if you were to buy them first-hand, the people that made the…

Ah, Commander Keen. I used to be able to read the intergalactic alphabet. And I was very surprised it's used in Minecraft. Still can't find…

I have these. Personal experience... They don't fit my ears, and not very comfortable, but the phone call quality is great. Even good when…

If it makes a low whirring sound loud enough for people pressed up against me on a crowded train to hear, I'm in.

I can't believe the original price of that thing. But good deal though! That's definitely the amount I'd pay for that.

Okay. That makes sense. I'm using a second hand ThinkPad. 8th gen. 8GB or RAM sucks though. But it's enough for basic things.

Why are all secondhand 8th Gen Intels around $300 to $400... and anything 9th Gen up shoot up to double the price, but then stays within…

I just finished Breath of the Wild (I know... but I just got a Switch 6 months ago) and I'm really looking forward to Tunic.

Yup. And your pants waist around your knees pulls it forward so they doesn't touch the seat. I have to admit, the first time I did it, I…

Interesting comments. I bought some cheap ones years ago out of curiosity. Now I swear by them. I originally got the ones with the rubber…

Unclip socks, remove shirt and stays, remove pants. Remove pants last always.

I do. Started using them in my 30's and I haven't looked back since. For this price, I'd say give it a try. Your shirt will always look…

Pretty good for a plushie. Might pick a couple up for birthday or Christmas presents.

After reading all this, I think my next step is to see a financial adviser. I cancelled my policy just now without reading all the latest…

That's what I was thinking as well. We're literally not making any savings right now. We make enough to pay the bills and groceries. But…

Those are my thoughts as well, but some responses here are making me think otherwise. I've only just cancelled my policy before reading…

Why 65 though? I see that come up a lot in this thread. What happens after 65? Apologies if it's a dumb question. I need to see a financial…

Struggling now a little bit. I took a look recently at our finances. From April or something last year, we're basically breaking even.…

Yup. My thoughts exactly. Once I pay everything off though, I'm putting any savings into a high interest savings account like ING.

Right now, honestly, not a whole lot. All money goes into the offset account. I still have a ways to go before I can actually start putting…

Thanks. I will. In fact, I have just ended my policy before reading the latest messages here. It used to be $100-something, but over the…

As in... they pay out more often for this particular one than other policies?

Funded through super. Interesting. Do you work in insurance by any chance? I probably do need to speak to a financial adviser. I'm not a…

What do you reckon about the money I save? Put it into the mortgage, or put it in a high interest account like ING's Savings Maximiser? I'd…

Lots of if's. This is exactly what insurance companies want. Preying on our insecurities. Can I put that savings to use somewhere else?

Nope. Separate to super. But good point. I don't know if my super does any insurance. I'll check it out.
