Hi gang. So I got what I thought was strep throat 2 months ago and was prescribed amoxicillin to 10 days and it went away. A couple days after getting off the meds it was back.

I waited a couple weeks and got another perception and it went away while on the meds but I completed the script and now it’s back again. It’s been relentless and is getting very frustrating.

Is there something else I should be prescribed or has anyone been through something similar?

Thanks!

Hi, weird one and the ball is already rolling so I’m hoping to catch any potential blind spots before the deal is completed.

My parents are buying a rental in Portugal, but are too old to qualify for a mortgage. They have asked me (35m) to be the legal owner and get the mortgage and they will handle all payments and management/work related to the rental. Everything will go through a Portuguese bank account I opened in my name but they have complete access to. Essentially it will be my place on paper but I will (hopefully) have nothing really to do with it.

There’s already been a couple hiccups where I had to travel there in person to open the account and set up a power of attorney.

I’m wondering if anyone has any insights on this route or if there’s any obvious blind spots I’m missing in the practicality. I’m aware I’ll have to absorb the income tax and my folks will rebate me the difference. So far I have told them it’s no problem but if it becomes one we sell it, and they agreed that’s fine. They are putting up a 50% down payment so if things don’t work out at least there’s enough equity in the place that I don’t get burned.

TLDR: overseas rental property financed/run by parents but in my name for financial reasons. Major risk?

Okay, so I keep seeing posts about how different an airline career is now compared to back in the day. For example, how a starter $20-25k RP position used to take 5000hr minimum to apply.

I’m in Canada and I hear the same story here all the time. I’m confused how that can be the case when my company posts monthly retirements with years of service typically averaging over 35 years.

While starting salaries are surely higher today, I find it hard to believe career length is significantly longer now when I’m seeing monthly data like this.

Am I missing something? Where does this narrative of how much harder it used to be to get hired come from? Apologies for my potential ignorance I’m genuinely curious.
