Company is expanding and I have multiple opportunities for a promotion. Step into a senior level position with a team of 3-4 people reporting to me, and a base salary of about $101k by end of year.

I no longer have to pay child support by mid-2015. This frees up $661/month. This gives me an opportunity to invest this in company stock instead (I get a 15% discount). So, invest in about $3-4000 worth of company stock by year end. Use this as the foundation for an e-trade account in order to begin growing my portfolio by 2016.

Use tax return to pay off my car.

Limit dining out to twice a month. Stop eating fast food, altogether.

Learn Tableau. Become an expert.

Create a source control system for my team's data objects. Create metadata builds for lookup data. Create a working deployment solution.

Yes. I'm 41. He's a good boy but our relationship has been strained the last couple years. His mom is the epitome of welfare fraud. She thought it'd be fine if he smoked pot and dropped out. I disagreed and used legal resources to strong arm them back on track. Now he's mad at me.

Never managed to get custody because, .. I have white privilege? I digress. He has no plans for higher education. Which is a damn shame, frankly. But this frees up my support obligations.

real time reporting. I work with the merchandising arm of a data analytics team. We want to know what people are buying, when they bought it, where, and what else they bought with it. Plus which of our vendors are ripping us off. Tableau will supposedly answer those questions.

Well mainly the stigma that comes with having an STD only got 2 ulcers one on my nob that was nothing and one in my urethra that made pissing painful as fuck for over a week.

It was especially bad because the person I was a year ago, used to be heaps picky only rooting hot "good girls" I was super afraid of getting STDs than life happened, developed a drinking problem, started going brothel.

Now when ever I get a pimple i'm paranoid its herpes and I had an eye infection and was paranoid that was herpes. Super paranoid that I'll infect someone. Kinda in a self imposed quarantine, which kinda worked out well because now I stopped drinking, and just work, train and started programming even though im really shit and struggle with it.

As far as I can tell its not as bad as sex ed made it out to be, but psychologically it still kinda fucks with me.

Most reasons are personal I won't delve into. Apart from that, I've lived all over the world and I love Canada. It has the perfect mix of big city and wilderness. The people are friendly. There is a vibe, at least for me, that I can do what I want. That could be to do with the people being ever so näive and European ideas are seen as innovative.

I love the UK, especially culture and the people. I'm probably itching for something new is all. Whilst young I still have unlimited earning potential so I'm allowed one big mistake or one big adventure.

Have emergency funds saved up to get you through a few months. Jobs in Canada are not hard to come by.

You should now be applying to the Canadian working holiday visa, bear in mind that's only open sometime between Dec - Jan and is heavily over subscribed). It gives you an open work visa for one year with one renewal option as a British citizen. In this time, if you like it, you can apply for a temp or permanent resident visa. The visa is valid from time of entry one year after acceptance by the Canadian authorities.

2015 is the year of focusing on my image and health. I say 2015, it's been since october and it'll be my primary focus up until August.

It's been a complete lifestyle change, in the 2 months I've been focusing on it I feel like a new man, I'm more productive all round.

I make absolute sure I get 8 hours sleep, eat 3 healthy meals, 5 fruit a day, no takeaways, go to the gym every day, get sunlight, bought a whole new wardrobe and little things like having a morning bathroom routine, instead of just having a shower, brushing my teeth and going to work, I use 2 toothbrushes, 2 toothpastes, a deep face wash, moisturiser, hair products, etc.

You would be very surprised what this can do to you as a person, I've probably gone from a 4/10 to a 6/10, but I feel like a 10/10 everywhere I go and people pick up on it.

Hey biz, prepare for a retarded question. If I were to buy 51% of the stocks of let's take The Walt Disney Company, could I at any time stop all production of movies etc and turn it into a agriculture company specializing in potatoes?

Basically, if I own 51% of the stocks, can I dictate everyting that's done in any company? How do I get my will through and what can they do to stop me doing something retarded?

One of my big goals this year is to do less work. I spend 60% of my time making 35% of my money (self employed). So this year I'm planning on cutting those services and focusing on the more profitable ones.
I can afford to take a hit in revenue while I build the other side of the business anyway.

Also planning on not paying taxes this year. Going to live under the poverty line by investing everything extra in the business.

This way I'll be eligible for Obamacare, EIC, food stamps, section 8 etc. and will only pay a small amount in SE taxes. Currently I pay about 15k a year in Federal taxes and it makes me want to punch someone.

guys what does it mean if i got a letter in the mail from my wealthy relatives trust that says

"a sum of 200k was contributed to the trust on dec by your relatives. Persuant to some article of the trust you have the right to withdraw part of the amount contributed, equal to the combined annual exclusion from two doners of ~20k, minus gifts, either outright, in another trust or in an account like a 529 plain. Blah blah send us a letter for more info"

Obviously thats an abbreviated version, but does this mean i get free money? or free money to donate

free money if you withdraw it within 30 days
if not, it becomes part of the trust and is distributed by the trust's terms
that said you lose the tax benefits of the trust if you take the money so it may be better to leave it alone

I have a lot of promiscuous sex, and I don't always use condoms for sex. I never use them for oral. I thought it was pretty much impossible to get an STD thru oral, unless you had open cut/sore on your dick.
