Still a million bucks short of being a millionaire

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@Q22635587 @ThatChris1209 Yeah exactly. The track in isolation is great for high risk high reward corners with how close the walls are but overtaking is, and always has been impossible, so having them doing multiple laps against each other so it's like the final 3 minutes of quali on repeat could be fun

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@LisWellings @atthebeachgolf @BHAHorseracing Agree though there'd be uproar if he'd won and ruled a NR. So I think they have to put it on the Jockey, Ryan knew as they were let go, so if he pulls up immediately declare it a NR, you can't run in the race and see what the result is before deciding if it counts or not.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@RacingPost How can you judge it on the result. You can say if he'd won it fine it didn't materially affect him but if he loses it who knows if the start materially affected him. Maybe he didn't handle the ground or the track or had an off day or is overrated.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@BlooyGar @RacingTV @gbougheyracing @LuckOnSunday @WorldPool Yes if he missed it 10 lengths and is instantly pulled up fair enough but you can't run your race, get beat 30l and then go back and say actually that doesn't count

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@RacingTV @gbougheyracing @LuckOnSunday @WorldPool 'The stewards can consider declaring a non-runner' that's the problem, it has to be black or white. If a horse being in that position means it has such a compromised chance then it must always be a NR.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@RacingTV @BHAHorseracing @LuckOnSunday @WorldPool If this is the case, re-word it so it's simply 'would the starter have let them go? knowing the situation'. If no = NR.
Apply it consistently, regardless of finishing position or jockey instructions. You can't pick and choose what horses were or weren't affected.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@Rhys_N_Williams The result and jockey instructions should have no bearing on the decision. Look at what he lost at the start and make a decision on that. You can't prove causation only correlation by looking at the result.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@TheMackemRacer @nialloreilly89 But surely 'materially affected' can't just be based on the end result. Otherwise It's the correlation v causation argument. Did he lose because of a bad start or did he just lose and have a bad start. To my eye he wouldn't have got anywhere near them regardless.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@SiClare I don't get how he can categorically say he's been materially affected by it. He's missed it a length and sure Ryan has said he wanted to be closer but he's hardly lost all chance at the start and ultimately ended up beaten 20/30 lengths

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@TopBinsBets_ So you weren't serious about Morocco winning the group & you weren't serious about all the others going out.
If neither of those things happen why is this such a good bet?

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@sam_winnard @robprogressive That's fair comment. Especially with BTLs nowadays. Though I stand by my point of equity or profit. Interest only is a running expense and therefore you should take the difference between rent and cost as profit, and as you pointed out asset appreciation can still apply.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@kscc07 @robprogressive Well there's always the option of getting a job to feed your family and pay your bills like everyone else? Renting out a home doesn't take you 40 hours a week, unless you have dozens. If you have dozens and can't turn a profit that's a you problem.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@martian_lore The biggest problem was the boom of 'buy to let' mortgages. That pushed rents up as all of a sudden rents were covering a mortgage + maintenance + profit.
When really it should be one or other, Cash profit or the equity gain from using rent to pay your mortgage.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@CavVetJoe @BladeoftheS I think the point was governments serve the people, so they can operate on tighter margins and it would be a closed loop so the rent money goes back into the country economy rather than invested overseas or in the pocket of an individual

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@SITR1776 @dividendology And he even had the added benefit of knowing any risk wasn't really a risk cause he could always just go back to his old life. I think what would likely happen is the 'rich' would split into boom or busts and the 'broke' would be in the middle with less variance.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@LBC @TomSwarbrick1 What do you mean Trading platforms can't operationalise it. It's simple af. Cash ISA = no change.
S&S ISA interest gets earned and paid out daily or monthly whatever, as is the current procedure. Let's say it's £100 of interest, you just send the client £78 and £22 goes to tax.

[Adam JA @Adam___13579]

@RidyardMike Think people are being deliberately misleading to stir up outrage that the government are going to be taking 20% of your savings, when they're not. As taxes go, I think it's actually fairly reasonable, it serves a purpose, is easily avoided and mainly impacts the cash rich.
