Is there some fact you disagree with?

Most people morals bend when it is profitable. But as in the example I gave with Germany it was more a case it wasn’t explicitly illegal at the point and general policy in the British Empire was if it was allowed in the host nation it was allowed to be exploited by the businesses of the Empire, free market at its…

To be fair the British position isn’t a sandy foundation, Britain never hid it’s role or racism in colonial past. There may be a disagreement on whether it’s something to be considered shameful or not, but it isn’t hidden.

Have you seen the price of bullets, that’s a market that’s going to collapse soon. All the worse for people not knowing that ammunition has an expiry date!

In this case it is pretty simple and no real trick, you simply need enough cash to cover you for the period it takes you to liquidate any other investments or long enough that you can tell the difference between a blip and an issue.

I don’t know about that, my main account is 2.5% and my best savings account is 1%, used to be they were about even and it was getting closer to the point where it would be better to have more cash in savings side, now though.

That is why my next big investment might actually be in land, I own property, but not the kind that you can live on.

I probably wouldn’t do gold personally, there are better commodities to be honest that are more portable.

You need a 1-2 months in accessible cash, anything beyond that you should be able to put it anywhere that is accessible within the above period, which is suitable for a lot of investment options.

Well bonds still pay out, and are a lot safer investment wise in companies and especially in governments where they are currently borrowing and the only thing that would prevent a return is total collapse of nations. As long as you are ok with a medium term investment they are a good option in unsettled times.

Not always to be fair, when things get really really tough liquidity can really be a bad idea unless it’s in physical liquid assets i.e. actual cash or metals. Remember if it sucks really hard money is as fragile as any investment as it only works with the government backing it.

Why wouldn’t you? I never got idea of why waste time transferring money constantly. I save a set amount at the start of the month and the rest of my money sits in the main account and I either spend it or shift the excess over into savings or extra mortgage payments when it gets too much.

If you can work out what the time you will need to hit your target there are low risk investment options like bonds for example. And you can still get ok rates if you are willing to lock up your money for a set period.

Why exercise in a gym when you can game and exercise in VR!

I support the general mission and ambition of Tesla, and I’m not an Elon Musk basher as frankly his being a transparent asshole is way better than someone that is a secret asshole, and he’s net benefit to the species despite embodying the worst stereotypes of a tech bro and a south african man his age.

I’ll say it again, a lot of the criticism of the last movie was utter BS that totally misunderstood both the source material and Japanese culture, not to mention the total detachment to economic reality of film making.

Thats not how Energy policy in the UK works, negative subsidies don’t go via the Treasury and so can’t go into other funding lines.

Android used to have a perfectly good experience for Tablets in the early days, Google just shat the bed and abandoned it in version 4.0. That being said it’s android, you can make it work on everything and the UI is easily customisable a Samsung tablet in terms of interface is IMO better than an ipad by miles.…

This looks great, I recently actually found my old gameboy original version from the 90s and just need to hunt my parents attic for the cartridges and my color if I can find it.

I don’t mind that generally, but I think in a weekly episodic series I find it more off putting. If it was released all at once I probably wouldn’t mind it, although I think the generally err just a bit too far on mysterious as otherwise the motivations don’t fully come through.
