    Las Vegas Grand Prix

    I checked out ticket prices the other day, not much under $1000US. A few around 850-900. Not a good start at all. From Reddit: I have to vent my frustration as someone who was sat in a freezing grandstand for 6 hours tonight, only to get kicked out right before FP2 started. I'm a 20+ year...

    New Scam

    Yup, my grandma was halfway to the bank a few months ago to withdraw 4k in cash for my "cousin" who broke his nose, didn't want his parents to find out, and they told her to tell the bank teller it was for home reno's. Thank god she had second thought and went back home to call my uncle. Of...

    COVID and the housing market

    That's assuming he is legit like he says, paying taxes. Indian guy came to buy something from me last night. Said he's flipped/held 11 houses for as little as 2 or 3 months on some of them in the last 8 years. I asked how he did it if he had a corporation for taxes and what not, and he said if...

    Bad boy furniture bankrupt

    Someone needs a time out in the corner. I'm sure these employees are personally responsible for his lost deposit/payment. In another video I saw that showed the 30 seconds before this, he threw a chair in the air and punched that hole in the pillar.

    Bad boy furniture bankrupt

    This article makes it seem like there is a little hope 🤷‍♂️ saying it's hoping to "restructure" and do away inefficient portions of their business. Seems like a big hole to dig themselves out of though...

    Bad boy furniture bankrupt

    The first and only chargeback I've ever done was on a $600 car part that I had purchased in an April, and if I remember right didn't get to install it until around August. Opened it up and company sent me a part with a busted off drill bit stuck inside of it, rendering it just about useless...

    900,000 students coming in…

    Have had more than one 45 year old client with a family of 4 or 5, nice cars in the driveway of their 3 million dollar + house on lakeshore in Burlington/Oakville that told me they were "students". And their parents are almost always living there and milling about watching me do my job.

    Man scammed by a fake certified cheque, lost polaris slingshot

    I don't actually have a detective brother :) And of course I didn't have proof/no crime committed as I wasn't dumb enough to fall for it. I was just making sure he knew I wasn't messing around and not to come back. Not expecting much from a 16 year old kid who is still in high school. Like I...

    Man scammed by a fake certified cheque, lost polaris slingshot

    Had a very strange encounter last week. Have a 40k vehicle posted for sale, received message from someone interested to come view. I said sure. I opened the garage and it was a 16 year old kid standing there with a backpack on. I immediately knew it was going to be a waste of time. Could tell...

    Post up your liquor/spirit talk ?

    :ROFLMAO: As soon as I saw the photo I thought to myself, that looks like something I'd see at Starsky. Probably have different flavors as well. Whole aisle of that kind of stuff.

    Advice to get business going

    Agree with what others have said, be careful if you incorporate it can get expensive with accountants and bookkeepers especially if you are slow for an extended length of time, or decide to take extended length of vacation. Depending how big you go it could cost a couple grand a year to give...

    900,000 students coming in…

    It's advertised (glorified) in their local newspaper like its going on a cruise or a bus trip to come to Canada and start new life. They don't advertise how hard it is to afford $1800 a month in rent when you're only making $16.00 an hour.

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    Mind boggling how many dump trucks drive down the road with stones/gravel/dirt right up against/falling off the top side rail. One of the easiest things driver can check or jump up there with a shovel and do a quick sweep to push loose stones away from the edge. %99 of them don't take the time...

    How's the Motor Company doing ?

    Kelowna HD had about 15 or 20 designs of their T-shirts on sale for $10 each last winter (sticker tag was $34.99-39.99 I believe) Got 10 of them for friends and family. Would never buy a single one at retail cost. Banff HD is closer to $50/per.

    Man scammed by a fake certified cheque, lost polaris slingshot

    I accepted one that looked identical to this earlier this summer. Did go to bank to deposit it with the buyer beside me though. Others in the past I have accepted with blind faith, probably wouldn't anymore. This week I delivered a hot tub I had sold....buyer said he could only transfer 2k/day...

    Realtor girl I follow on Instagram said in last 30 days 175 listings have expired/terminated in Oakville. 600 something in Hamilton. Only %50 of mortgage holders have felt the new rate pain...the next couple years will be interesting.
