Would be a big discentive to older down sizers. Not sure how much of the market that is.

Blade Golems are the down-sizers of Infernal Resources.

Best to stay away.

I am down to probably 10 lbs of candy now from my starting 25lbs + 50 full sizers

Middle housing remains the most difficult and expensive housing to build. It’s taxed the heaviest and goes through the same anti-home hoops as large multifamily.

When it’s built right, it provides a sweet spot for down-sizers to live a fuller, less hectic life in a quiet neighbourhood community.

The bottom is lightly structured and might give you some trouble in the stingiest airline sizers, but it has a kind of trapezoid shape so I solve this by putting it into those sizers upside down. Never had it not fit under my seat.

At last, someone else also seeing the same issue I see. The down-sizers will get preference every time too, as more likely than not they’re cash buyers.

My native Fitzroy being absolutely destroyed by greedy developers and down-sizers.

Had to order some ring sizers for me and the husband.

My wedding band is an 8.5 and I'm down to a 7. His is a 10, he's more like a 9.5 rn.

I was putting on a sweater and literally flung my band off of my hand, aaaaaaa.

For anyone else considering implants these are expensive but might be a solid tool for figuring out how big you'd like to go. I'm probably going to give them a try in a month assuming the us settles down some.

I just jumped up and down in frustration, lol. I knew it was a good one.

I can still wear 8.5, but with the way I've been losing weight, I don't dare buy rings outside the 6.5-8 range.

I've resorted to the indignity of wearing ring sizers for my beloved size 9s :(

My issues are broader: London centric politics and money flow.

And then the niggle of some of the down sizers coming here.

Tin: I said a 7. It fit my pinky at least.
Janice: *smiles* We can size you just to be safe. Turn around time for customs is a few weeks, maybe 3 with the holidays. *pulls out her ring sizers and a felt mat for her to set her ring down on as she tries on*

The Build, baby build homes are NOT going to be smaller homes for ‘starters’, ‘down-sizers’ etc, but yet more damned Executive homes. We have far too many of them! Also building on flood plains should be completely taboo.

Oh, I can see down-sizers as a problem. To be honest, if I move out of London, I will be one, but I cannot really help that. Probably not happening for a good 15+ years though, so the world will probably be in ruins.

Truth. The stuff in this thread if you're willing to dive in -- the idea that sick days, PTO, "mental health days" are being abused is hilarious coming from an industry that used to pay considerable money to mercenary "down-sizers" to fire their employees in fear they might shoot up the place.
This article is EVIL. Two different execs basically saying "people are taking sick days and it's bad, nobody wants to work anymore." Anyway let's check out Fleecor and Culture Amp's Glassdoors!

I didn’t note the exact location of this #bijou #townhouse that extends over three #spacious levels but there’s an identical #property for sale in #Boronia at the moment.

I think it would be ideal for #down-sizers, but it might also suit a #FirstHomeBuyer. As long as the 2st home buyer is 8yo.
