Have I landed on the BAeXXXpats site by mistake?

When debating about things related to toilets, the [person named] John knows best!

You can be both right at the time. Prices and exchange rates do not go up or down in a straight line. It's it quite normal for price consolidation to happen after a sharp increase or decline in a short time. If you focus on the a small time frame you see one thing, while another focusing on a...

If your spouse earns less than the benefit you get (larger deduction, wide tax brackets, etc...) for filing under the Married Filing Jointly vs. Separately, then of course you want to file under that status. However, in that case she has to explicitly agree to be treated as an US tax resident...

#1 You don't really need it. #2 Don't stress over it, or you'll get constipated. #3 Never mind, don't even think about that... [Sorry, you're thinking about it, aren't you?]

Realtors will always tell their clients it's a great time to buy or sell, any year, any month, any week, any day. Every place they show you is 'one of a kind', beautiful, charming, has great potential, and/or is a great investment...and you better sign now before you miss that gem.

As I said before, what you consider to be clear, unambiguous, might not be for others. What I said was that I would have a copy of the key if I were the owner. I also said was that both the owner and the renter would want the contract to state their responsibilities and interest. What I...

It is not illogical to have backup plans. Of course BOTH sides should try to include clear details in the contract that defines their rights and interests. However, in the real world, people have different interpretations of the contracts and laws, no matter how clear one side thinks the...

Regardless of what the contract or the law says, assume the owner has a set of keys. If I am the owner, I certainly will have a copy. If you were the owner, won't you? As others have noted, it's for emergencies. No sane owner would want an unhappy renter, so they won't come in unannounced...

I know people with kids who relocated to Raleigh from NYC area and they seem quite happy with their decisions. I also worked regularly with many team members living there for a number of years and they seem relatively more relaxed, happy, and nicer than coworkers in other locations. Job...

I think the Milei Derangement Syndrome is making some to focus on the black robes, and not the fact that it's actually about implementing jury trials. Funny how Milei is criticized for both providing too few details and also for providing too many details for implementing something properly.

For those who believe in Milei, this makes a lot of sense. It's not more clear to me why he chose to put everything in one DNU. He is basically say, you elected me to turn things around, so let me do the job I'm elected to do. If the legislature rejects the DNU, then he is saying, let the...

Do you seriously believe extracting lithium from Argentina land would not result in jobs and tax revenue for the Argentinian government? People can have different opinions about who benefits the most and whether the distribution of the profits are fair, the environment impact, etc...but your...

This truly shows Milei knows what he is doing. A good relationship with Musk could lead to Lithium deal, Tesla plant, SpaceX test site, NeuroLink research site, X staffing, ...

Let's consider for a moment that Milei is not colluding with Russia like the dossier says...oops, wrong President, wrong countries, but same... Anyway, let's consider for a moment that Milei loves his country and want it to succeed. Maybe he's actually negotiating with the US and China. THAT...

Things are accomplished when people learn from their mistakes and try again, knowing they will make more mistakes, but hopefully not the same ones. It takes optimists and those with courage to try again. Yes, people do change, and when I say people, it doesn't have to mean the same persons...

Milei can surely wrapped each of his policies as individual DNU's. Also, the legislature can put into law anything they agree with. If he does choose to put multiple things in the one DNU, then he must believe the majority of the lawmakers would not reject the full package even if they don't...

I think it's important to remember that the legislature can reject some of Milei's policies and Milei doesn't have to achieve everything he wants in order for his administration to be successful and make things better. With that said, as the quote says "Better never means better for everyone...

Privatization doesn't have to mean no subsidies, and subsidies doesn't have to mean actual tax revenue being sent to the private company. It can be in the form of tax incentives and exceptions on certain regulations. Politicians who didn't understand that forced Amazon to drop its plan to...

According to this article with the misleading click bait headline, neither Milei nor Bullrich said anything about bullets. So before the Milei Derangement Syndrome takes hold, how about opine on what is actually said by the ones creating and implementing the new policies regarding how to handle...
