I've just been checking out financial management software, and come across this: Personal Budget Software - Finance Software for Windows & Mac It looks very good compared to things like Quicken and Gnucash, because it's actually based around a methodology (building up a buffer) rather than...

Hi, Does anyone why 95% of the goat-herders in the world are from Afghanistan? I didn't have a problem with this for ages, but ever since the war, they're all either dead or growing opium so I need to look elsewhere. I've been trying for ages to find someone in another country to mind my...

I don't drink a huge amount of coffee (maybe about 1-pint of moka-pot strength a day), but I'm getting so I feel I can't work without it. I woke up the other morning worrying about going to my parents' house because they only have shitty instant. I'm not a fan of being addicted to stuff, so...

I'm curious.... what was your relationship with your mother like?

I'm showing myself up as a hopeless optimist here, but I believe that at least some of WF's members are capable of intelligent, reasoned discussion. I'm sure I'll be bitterly disappointed and disillusioned by the outcome of this, but what the heck. I'm genuinely interested in the subject of...

I've been looking at ways to get paid by clients in USD and get my money in GBP without getting hit with fees and crappy rates. (like banks and paypal) Just spoke to these guys - they seem pretty competitive: Secure Money Transfer - Foreign Exchange - Send money - Forex The way they work is...

Just came across this... it's highly interesting if you live in the UK, and not remotely interesting if you don't. A while back, the UK government introduced something called Capital Gains Tax Entrepreneurs' Relief. The tl;dr version of this is that if you sell a business, or business asset...

I know there's a lot of fitness-minded folks here, so I have a question for you.... As part of my effort to reverse my alarming weight gain since becoming a parent (and to think, I wasn't even the one who gave birth to her...), I'm looking at my diet. It's generally pretty good, but I have one...
