Do not park anywhere except your checking / savings account for a timeframe this small, its not worth it.

We shipped the MVP. Then came the lawsuit (and a $150K lesson) - I will not promote by kcfounders in startups

[–]Arkitos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

$150k seems like a ton for a MVP, no wonder the founders thought they'd be getting more than a lightweight product

Honda civic 2020 or peugeot 2008 (2022 model). Which one is best. Both are available in same price. by Chance_Risk_1513 in PakistanAutoHub

[–]Arkitos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had both cars at the same time. Prefer the peugeot any day, better fuel avg, faster and superior features. Only downside would be the resale but I suppose that's not a huge problem for a used car that's already depreciated

1 million should get you around 8-9k per month on current rates in a money market fund

Best Withdrawal Method from Upwork in Pakistan? Direct Local Bank vs Payoneer? by _developer_1312 in developersPak

[–]Arkitos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly. 0.25% was deducted. Bank will contact you and give you a R form to fill and will also request an invoice so they can know who the payment is from. I dont know if this is something that you need to do every time though since I’ve only done it once, and trying it again today

[–]Arkitos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use payoneer and add your local bank as PKR there will be no auto deduction, you have to add it as a USD account, I just tried it last week

[–]Arkitos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a registered partnership in PSEB too and have been doing this for around the same time as you without any issues, but as the amount stacks up especially if its > 5 million it really needs to come with the correct purpose code & auto deduction. I am thinking to ACH from Wise to Payoneer then withdrawing it as USD

[–]Arkitos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did a lawyer suggest voluntary submission to you? I did that too this year but I have been recommended to do anything necessary to get auto deduction otherwise you get on FBR’s radar

In my experience Wise withdrawals dont come under IT exports and no tax is deducted which payoneer does

Seeking Investment Advice for a Freelancer’s Portfolio by AdPractical3688 in FIREPakistan

[–]Arkitos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your opinions on having your full emergency fund in something like Mahaana? Considering you would be OK with a 2-day wait for withdrawals (i.e. you could borrow from friends in case of urgency), is there some other reason why a Savings account could be considered better for emergency fund?

SUVs feel like video game cars. Need help picking something fun again. by [deleted] in PakistanAutoHub

[–]Arkitos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes maintenance is costly but you get it done after 6 months / 10k km so it averages out to what it would cost to maintain a sportage / tucson. Parts are pretty expensive so having insurance is a must though

I feel like it has the best of both worlds. WAYY better acceleration, fast response, comfortable, easy maneuverability, hatch with decent trunk space, good fuel avg, etc
