    After 2 years of using pods, it finally happened this morning. Dropped one right out of my ear into a toilet full of piss. Luckily it was only the crappy JBL and not my Jabra's. I'm not making this up because you posted this! It really happened just a few hours ago :rofl: Now that I'm used...

    If ever in doubt, just imagine a tiny @Andy Black sitting on your shoulder with angel wings looking at you disapprovingly. He's not angry, just disappointed.

    I've travelled a lot but never through the US. It actually kind of blows my mind that they don't have true health food stores. I know so many where if you even say the word chemical you would get bounced lol.

    I've put 1k to start into interactive brokers. Looking forward to just getting familiar with this over the next few years until the time comes that I can use it as intended in the books. Just look at the percentages rather than the actual dollar amount for now :rofl:

    Starting a carpet cleaning business

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION 
    My friend owns a TV wall mounting and antenna installation business (also does things like starlink installation and home theatres) and his staff get exactly 50% of the profit they bring in. Plus they have to pay 8k AUD for tool setup, but are given a brand new van they keep with them. Kind of...

    I always get the emergency row with leg room usually. About an extra 50 USD each way Jakarta Sydney. Usually there are 2 rows in the middle on smaller planes, but the exit row that is in front of the other one doesn't recline. I always feel so sorry for the newbies that get caught out with that one.

    Wearing them as I write this.. but my girlfriend has already claimed them as a consolation prize. I'm tired after a bad night sleep and am going back to work for 2 weeks so to be able to lie flat and sleep is going to save me what would have been a hellish 3 days.

    I would say about 95% of what I use my credit card for is just buying flights, hotels and uber. Day to day stuff I tend to just use my regular everyday card.

    I switched to a Qantas NAB signature card 6 months ago and received 120 thousand Qantas points for changing. I have a friend that does this every 2 years and he gets a free return business class flight for his wife and him to Singapore every time so thought screw it, I'll do it. It would have...

    I had a look and it's about 5x or just under. The lie flat bed is the main thing I want. I'm used to flying Perth to Europe on long haul 22 hour flights so anything 6 hours and under doesn't worry me. But I really want to do Emirates business class on the A380 on a long haul flights one day...

    Only 30 hours and no travel time either as you work from home. If it was me I'd be using my spare time to start a business. Golden opportunity.

    When I was house sharing with a friend that did home theatre installations, we were pretty much gifted a full set of wharfedale speakers, a Yamaha receiver and a barely used projector worth about 2k, from a couple of wealthy clients upgrading theirs. Had the best little home theatre set up for...

    And only 15 minutes to the beach. I used to live ten minutes from there (Doonan). Probably the best spot in Sunshine Coast inbetween Coolum and Noosa, while that other property is in the worst. Ghetto town. Strange.

    I know Bali gets a lot of hate, but I still love the place. But... Be prepared for this any time you travel in South East Asia haha. It actually only ever happened to me once in all the years I've been there though. Also happened to me in Hanoi right outside the main government building lol.
