@babble Looking around my extended family with hindsight, there were definitely some girls turning into women who could have used some advice about what is appropriate at nanna's place versus what is not.

@suz m To be richer than 99% of your married friends, I've calculated that you need at least 67 married friends, 66 of whom are poorer than you...which is why I don't have that many friends.

That man is not a gentlemen, rather a cad and a bounder that deserves a good thrashing..

@snorks You're really stretching to be right here. Virtually none of those will be of actual or practical consideration to a buyer. It will be quite quantifiable factors like proximity to public transport, schools, the CBD, potential tenant markets like universities or hospitals.

To really cut through ANY complication, you simply call a realtor or valuer and ask for a valuation. No such professional specialist is a phone call away, to value a degree, at no cost.

Last response on this, as I know that you'll never admit when you're caught flat footed with an unsound premise.

Woah.

@snorks So, you know the value of a 3 bedroom house in your suburb/city on 600 metres squared, but you can't tell me the value of a degree?

What does that tell you about your belief that one is simpler than the other?

@snorks Measure it then. The trajectory of a graduate career will be a confluence of a degree and their diligence, aptitude, social ability, opportunity/luck and ambition. Make sure that you include all these factors. Versus a simple property valuation.

@snorks A house is a tangible asset, as opposed to a degree, with much more easily measured (and guaranteed) appreciation.

One oversaturated oscars push celeb, plus one historically oversaturated celeb gives rise to supersaturated "you again?" eye rolls.

It's an incestuous circuit, many of these more popular podcasters all cross-promote with each other by doing each otherss's podcasts. I don't partake of Shetty, but have heard him interviewed by Armchair expert.

Joe Brogan is definitely a bro, I listened to him at the start of covid but jumped ship when he got crazy on the vaccines, fat people's vulnerability to covid being cause of all the deaths and barely a podcast could go past without gender fluidity being mentioned derisively.

I've long since stopped listening, but Rogan was a chameleon who adapted his views to suit each interviewee. He changed so radically that , to this day, I wonder how thoroughly he embraces some of the shite he espouses now, or if he's worked out how to get as many ears attuned as possible.

I've by no means listened to anything approaching all of Hubermann's podcasts, you have to be in the right mood and doing something that allows you to concentrate, but to my mind, he's pretty sensible in his views and thoroughly researched. As to gurufying him, I can listen to a podcast about how mitochondria-rich adipose tissue (brown fat) located mostly across your shoulders is activated by exposure to cold, listen to research about how which duration and repetition of cold exposure is most effective in activating brown to induce the body into burning normal fat more rapidly and while fascinated, still think f*ck cold plunges. What on god's green earth would ever possess you to cold plunge?

What I'm saying is - Hubermann's not selling anything to you (aside from some third party products, which are reputable), the knowledge is presented largely agnostically and despite what he's doing in his private life and bro-ing it up for the Joe Rogan show, he's no bro and his podcasts are positive, responsible and benevolent.
