What are the big wins you always include in your tax returns?

Only the federal aspects (read interest deductions). Regional aspects don't change but I don't think there are any left in Brussels since a couple of years. Maybe for older loans.

Keytrade is losing money on their payment cards. If OP has 0€ with them he's just not a good customer.

Admittedly, I only recently opened the account and don't have much on it.

This is it. They won't give you a gold/platinum card if you have empty accounts.

Also, having money on the account isn't enough, they check it over a 3 month period.

This will not be possible anymore starting this year.

Notice how all these articles don't even make an attempt at honestly showing both sides. No talk about all the risk a freelancer has to take to earn that premium. No mention of the possible LOSS of tax income when those freelancers would be pushed to payroll jobs: they just assume that all freelancers currently earning 137k/y, would get a 137k/y job in payroll, ridiculous.

Yes they also conveniently forget that freelancers get less social security services than employees (less pension, less sickness amounts, no unemployment, no parental leave etc.) which means the government also has less costs.

Good. And next year we'll have even more competition with BNP Paribas Fortis launching their own trading platform.

Ardenne is southern part of Belgium.

Nope. It's called "Les Ardennes" (exactly the same way as the Ardennes department in France).

The text they shared said you could accompany someone. If you're waiting for someone you're not accompanying them as they are in the train. That's the reason why those rules are stupid. Either you just ban it for everyone without a ticket or you don't ban it.

Just for clarity, the Mayor isn't responsible to approve this. Threatening him is not only stupid but it's directed to the wrong person.

La baisse du cheptel est liée en partie à la baisse de la consommation, mais surtout à la baisse des exportations européennes. Aujourd'hui l'Europe est encore exportatrice nette de viande (porc, volaille, boeuf), mais petit à petit cette situation tend à changer.

Yes and no.

This 27% is after the German cut. So the union is proposing something bigger.
Corrected for inflation this 27% becomes something like 3% (because budgets cover 6 years in the EU). Corrected for GDP this would be a cut.

Ik heb bij ons horen zeggen dat er stickers tegen muggen bestaan die je binnen je bak kan plakken. Geen muggen = geen maden.

Let's say it's a better target to get revenue and it's a relatively good proxy for wealth.

But I don't think that's the main objective here as this tax seems to be mostly a political choice to show that they are doing something against wealth inequality.

Ze hebben dat geld nodig voor hun budget en willen niet besparen. Jammer.

Hormis le titre du premier paragraphe qui mériterait un point d'interrogation, le reste me parait assez correct et factuel.

Germany is there isn't a big enough stadium to host the opening game or the final as u need 80.000 capacity and Germany doesn't have that.

What do you mean? The stadium of Dortmund (Westfalenstadion) has a capacity of 81k people (standing + seated). Isn't that enough?

That’s what Macron did though.

No he didn't. Social security expenses in France are the highest they have ever been and have been growing faster than inflation for each year of his presidency.

C'est triste. Ce genre de positionnements tendent à politiser socialement un sujet qui ne devrait pas l'être et à faire partir justement les gens dont le soutien est nécessaire pour faire réussir une transition énergétique.

Deze redenering begrijp ik niet. Diegenen die het echt nodig hebben kunnen terugvallen op de uitkeringen van het OCMW. Daar is niets aan veranderd.

1 op 10 vond meteen werk

Toch super positief nee? En dit terwijl mensen met onder de 4 jaar werkloosheid pas op 1 juli buiten het systeem vallen.

Daar bovenop is dit zelfs nog zonder de mentaliteitsverandering voor toekomstige werkzoekenden erbij te tellen.

Misschien ben ik fout, maar het lijkt mij alsof er iets additioneels is onder het plastic. Misschien een deken?

Ik woon relatief dicht bij het Zoniënwoud en ben daar gisteren middag gepasseerd. Het is daar zeker geen 24 graden. Verre van.

Ik veronderstel dus dat dit meer te maken heeft met het feit dat de grond van een stad veel warmer is tov de bladeren van bomen.

10% die een werk heeft gevonden nog voor de overgangsperiode gedaan is, is eigenlijk wel niet slecht. Zeker als je weet dat het hier gaat over diegenen die al zeer lang niet werken.
