My daughter has always had a very close relationship with my mom. In the beginning of covid they didn't see eachother for a few months, except over video chat. When we finally had them over, in the outdoors, my daughter, who was 2 at the time had a very simple reaction: she collapsed on the grass as soon as she saw her in the distance. We had to pick her up off the grass. She spent the next half hour hugging her grandmother.
Incidentally my car is also from 2011. It has no GPS, so much cheaper for me to use navigation. Less integrated though. Which is of course why they can charge so much for new maps.
I had to rent an apartment for two months in between my old apartment was sold and my new house was ready. The apartment was furnished, so everything had to go into storage. Immediately after we moved in the owners told us they had put it up for sale and we would have potential buyers coming by now and again.
I wasn't homeless, and in the grand scheme of things this was just a small pitstop in a fairly great (if somewhat badly maintained) apartment, but then, my other moves have been much smoother, so here we are.
I thought this would be about being s whole lot more wealthy, so I had questions ready a colleague of mine overheard from a seven year old.
"What is your estate called?"
"How many barrels of land does your family own?"
When it comes to a million euro house, I don't think you need to behave that differently from what's your norm. People from every walk of life can come into that kind of money, be it from inheritance, a good job, lucky investment or help from parents. Just pretend it's a house you can barely afford and ask questions as if you're considering buying it. Point out flaws. Or don't, you're allowed to reserve judgement.
The problem is once you really experience and notice high quality it's hard to go back
I had this with earphones. Once I bought a better pair, going back to my old ones, it just sounded like cardboard. Don't invest in good audio equipment, even once. It will cost you for a lifetime!
My university mainly ran Solaris, pretty much everything also ran on Linux. In the rare case where Windows was required a remote desktop was available.
My university probably isn't your university though, so answers may not be worth much...
So, if they were endangered cows and your friend didn't like milk, the milk would be vegan..?
