Twice I've been called for jury duty, and both times, when I told my boss I needed some time off, they gave me letters like that instead.…

I read once how concerning it is that someone's fate is in the hands of 12 people lacking sufficient skills to get themselves out of jury…

I was thinking the same last night about cyber security courses, but then I did the figures. Training is easy money.

I just came here to find out how well it shreds

I don't think you should minimise risk like that. Are you suggesting that growth is so good now that if there was a crash in year 5 he'd…

I've done this regularly in the past, but I notice now they ask a lot more questions when you inquire about a loan. e.g. they ask for…

Personally, I'd be refinancing for 80% of the valuation and have a nice plump offset account. But not everyone likes to be cashed up and up…

I wish Boost would do a 60G plan. Their plans are far more data than I need, and therefore out of my price range. amaysim have offered me a…

I repeated that line daily from the day my company decided to go agile till the day I left.

I once went to use a self-checkout, but the previous customer hadn't paid. They were still walking towards the exit when I called the…

Who said anything about banning anything?

Just a couple of thoughts to consider: CGT is always going to be payable anyway - even at death it passes to the inheriter. But there are…

Well he's probably paid more taxes than the rest of us, so seems reasonable to me

You can't even trust approaching green lights. There are moron good samaritans out there that will stop dead to let in someone waiting to…

Because if you ram me because I cut you off, I'll be calling the police and have no doubt you'll be done for multiple offences.…

But just to be clear, your contribution to the repair cost of both vehicles, if you had rammed them, would have been more than replacing…

We had friends who basically told thier kids it was time to leave once they started establishing thier own independant lives. I couldn't…

I agree to a point - I def want to get a bidet at home. But for public toilets, for reasons I think mutually agreed above, paper please.

A better stat would be most popular operating system for servers, and a better question would be why does Linux even have a GUI when it's…

I don't understand the confusion. The alternative to giving way to someone on your left is what - go through them? It seems obvious to me.…

I didn't even see them before they were gone. I'd heard thier name a couple of times and was quite surprised we had a new airline, but…

Not sure what this list is exactly, but I wasn't impressed with Vigin having no money to pay creditors but being back in business without…

I can't think of a meal that wouldn't be improved with chips

Or waiting for public system. To me, it's enough to give me the confidence to go without insurance. If something happens, then I weigh the…

Just letting you know, the sporty life might entail some injuries, but increases life expectancy. Your extremely sedentary lifestyle…

My biggest medical expense was ~ $10K, and it's only happened once in decades of theoretically accumulating $100/month. Personally, I'd go…

Actually, it's risk transfer, and that's a scam in my book. The only way to win with insurance if for something terrible to happen to you.…

MLS is much more if you're 25. Not if you're 50+ and never had PHI. I reckon you need to decide when you're young whether you're going to…

I would never trust an insurance company or a broker to get me the best deal. Even if a bundle is cheaper this year, I'd be checking my…

You just need to determine your appetite for risk, and decide whether you'd rather pay an insurance company to take it. I've always insured…
