hobbesmaster posted:everyone has some token matching 401k, it’s a requirement to offer it to peons if upper management wants access to tax advantaged savings as well Pretty sure this doesn't exist in Canada. There's the CPP, the Canadian Pension Plan which is automatically paid into and matched by employers but it's very likely going to be completely emptied out by the time we retire as it's not being paid into as quickly as it's being drained. Plus, the CPP was designed to be a last resort old age pension and if you retire with no savings other than what CPP pays out then have fun in your bedbug ridden senior microapartment full of people too poor to be in care homes.

There's a reason I loving hate HGTV. I can't understand how my mother watches that garbage and the excesses. Like I get that home improvement is her hobby, but if I have to watch one more interior designer get apoplectic about tile or pipes or poo poo in a house with a budget in the millions of dollars...

If you’ve been craving a city apartment with a side of Colonel Sander’s famous Kentucky Fried Chicken, this could be the deal too finger lickin’ good to pass up. Real estate agent Michael Bacon has listed a Kangaroo Point unit for sale with a $500 KFC voucher as a sweetener. The Place Kangaroo Point agent said with one of the Colonel’s stores across the road from 308/36 Anglesey St, it seemed like the logical marketing incentive. “I’ve done the math and $500 can get you around 550 chicken nuggets or 300 wicked wings or, with summer in mind, 500 $1 frozen drinks,” he said. The self-confessed KFC fan said the demographic likely to be interested in the home were younger professionals and first homebuyers, a demographic he believed also had a taste for the kind of fine cuisine coated in 11 secret herbs and spices. “The feedback has been really positive so far,” Mr Bacon said. And while buyers may be lured in by almost a year of weekly hangover cures in the form of three-piece feeds, the apartment itself is a great buy, the local agent said. The 91sq m property is about two years old and has a private balcony with city views. There is an open-plan, dining and kitchen area opening to the balcony, a master bedroom with ensuite and balcony access, a second bedroom with private outdoor space, a bathroom, a laundry and a study nook. Mr Bacon said the complex also has a rooftop pool, deck and massive barbecue area — the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a Zinger Burger while taking in the Brisbane city skyline. And if you have your fill of KFC, the property is close to bars, restaurants and cafes. Mr Bacon said with a last name like his, this campaign won’t be his last foodie incentive. “Bacon goes with everything,” he said. “I’ve got a few other tasty options coming up.”

Larry Parrish posted:Wait really? 91 meters squared? So like 300 square feet...? I'm gonna talk about 100 square meters to make it easy: 100 square meters is a square with sides of 10 meters long (10 x 10). One meter is 3.2 feet, so 10 meters is about 32 feet. So that 10 meter x 10 meter square is 32 feet x 32 feet, or 1024 square feet. One square meter is almost eleven square feet.

85-95sqm is a pretty standard "entry level" 2.5br townhouse or apartment. Or in other words, the largest dwelling anyone under 40 will ever be able to afford.

Was looking at houses for sale in Eagle Rapids up in Michigan and there are 1 bed 1 bath apartments for sale for $400k each and I just don't understand how they are priced that high. It's just a podunk town. Beautiful, but where I'm living is too and empty lots aren't running $180k

Blippi's audience is like 2-4 year olds, they aren't going to know. It's lovely and exploitative not to make it clear that they'll be meeting an actor, I guess

Dreddout posted:So... You guys just gonna skip over the scat factor? It wasn't Blippi who shat on someone, and Steezy Grossman won't be on the tour, so what's the problem  Seriouspost: not going on the tour himself is actually the only way he could do a Blippi tour at all. We all know what would happen if a friendshitter did meet n greets with toddlers: the media would have a field day big time stylee. The attention he gets for not doing it now is nothing in comparison.

It was genuinely nice to have an entertainer who's scandal didn't involve sexual assault or child slavery or genocide or some poo poo. The dude made a gross video but everything involved was consenting and legal so like... What's the big deal?
