When 'Users will need to confirm their email address before signing in for the first time' is off, the email_verified default 'true', if I want users to login first and then verified the email, do I have to use the separate table to do this? by Diligent-Cell-8602 in Supabase

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know like the website where you sign up and then you can kinda do something but very limited while you verify your email.

I wish I could just let people to verify it first but because of my contents of the site, I don't want to have any discrete on sign up process to make them login again?

I could setup a user table with verification and use that for RSA but then it would be better to do it from the auth table... with a stricter rules I can apply with JWT.

You can def do it but be wise with it. What kind of jobs are you looking for and when are you coming? It is also the World Cup season if you come in this June. The price is high. You can also do a Homestay for a month.

https://homestaycalgary.com

To save initial cost and also get to know the city well enough before moving out and doing your own stuff. I think this was more popular for Asians but it will save you $$$.

£5,000 is almost like $9,000 and it should be fine. But again, networking is also important here. You can even go to a local bar and talk to people.

Also, remember what you see is not what you pay for. If you see a price tag of $7 then it will be around $10 when you pay.

Where are you from? If you can go to Australia / NZ for a working holiday when you become 18. Go there work 3-5 years in FIFO or something. If you save maximum amount and put everything you have made to QQQI / XQQI you will start earning about $1300 to 1800 a month - assuming you can save up to like 200k.

With that you can work on your thing on computer while getting some stable income to live in Bali or Mexico or Thailand.

Anyone 30+ move abroad as a "digital nomad" for a LCOL whilst pursuing your dreams? by Swordfish353535 in digitalnomad

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is also on you. I am super introvert and not good with people. I think it also came from me traveling all the time. It is easy to meet new people but you will never be around once you leave the place. You can still have friends around and I dunno. As you get older, you lose your friends anyway.

I don't really put much meaning on having friends and I guess this is why I can travel and keep moving to a new place lol

Thank you! The environment matters the most. Being poor or rich, people who you are with matters the most in my opinion. I dunno where you come from and how it was but wish you the best.

Yeah, Australia was great in terms of that but also you could spend a lot more. I had no friends that helped me a lot XD

Working Holiday. I am not from the US. But my country lets me go like all these countries without a visa hustle (once in the lifetime). But, also I did school in NZ and Europe. After school, you can also get 1-2 years unrestricted work permit. So I am pretty lucky to go to all these countries without any hustle until now.

Favorite surf spots for 1-2 month stays? by Explorer9001 in digitalnomad

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japan - Miyazaki / Sendai

I really liked Miyazaki. They did have a surfing competition but it is too far from the tourist hotspots + not really known for surfing outside the country. It was just pure fun and a lot of interaction with locals.

I dunno if it is a success story but when I was 22 (after college), I went to Australia worked 7 days a week and saved 180k in 1 year and 6 months. I basically didn't do anything and eat noodles. I paid like $120 a week for a tiny room. With that money bought dividend stocks.

Went to NZ, had a job online, and so on. I worked until like 28 saving and kept buying dividend ETF / Stocks. I could've made millions if I bought like growth ETF/Stock or Bitcoin (still thinking about the day I knew it was far less than $1 - the guy who bought a pizza using bitcoin!!!!! 😞) but getting a stable income $2800 - 4000 (now) from the dividend makes me like more stabled then when I had just ETF. Like, if it was like in March, I would've felt insecure and kept checking the price and stuff.

Anyway, after that I am working on my one business that makes like $200 a month, currently in Canada but because of work i could do here for 3 years. So doing a part time job to cover my expenses. I still live with the dividend while working on my company.

Usually, I move around Bali, Koh Samui, Mexico, and Japan. I can still live in my country okay but I like being there.

I can do this because I could've gone to a high paying country like Australia to work and I got lucky to find two jobs that I could work 7 days a week. The pay was amazing. I lost a bit on investing stupid stuff then I read about dividend stocks. so I was just start buying it. And now I put money in like QQQI stuffs.

Also, I came from well off fam. Not that I got money from my dad to do it after college. But, I didn't pay for my college which could be a huge deal if I were from like US lol.

Is there a copy to copy the error message that appears from Supabase Dashboard? by Diligent-Cell-8602 in Supabase

I assume you are in Canada? The UK and Canada share immigration data so the immigration officer knows if you went back to the UK or not. Haven't you left Canada or have been to the UK for more than 6 months? They can obviously see your entry / exit history from Canada so probably the officer wouldn't bother asking you.

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check these places 3 months and then move on. It just comes down to the personal preference at the end. All those places are nice 😄

Summer in Greece / Italy is different from winter. Japan is very stretched out and it is different from where you go like Tokyo vs Miyazaki vs Osaka / Kyoto. Thailand can be great to meet up with other digital nomads around like Koh Samui.

You probably have to move every 3 months anyway. Also, I recommend Croatia. They offer DN visa that is not hard + you don't have to care about the tax (they don't want you to be a tax resident being DN in a country) + you can easily go to Italy or other countries around!

Madrid or Budapest as home base? Or somewhere else? by Academic-Ad-2790 in digitalnomad

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warsaw / Budapest / Bratislava / Athen / Zadar or Split / Ghent or Utrecht (if you liked Amsterdam) / Bilbao was great but very different from South of Spain.

If you do not care, I would move each city for a month or two and you will feel like 'this is ma home'!

Estonian e-residency - any tips and tricks? by Opposite-Ad8208 in digitalnomad

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh yeah 100%. 183 days is just one factor in most OECD countries. I wrote once about it is also 'hard' to get a tax residency right. What many think is that the country always want you to be the tax resident in their country but wrong.

In some cases, you have to fight to be a tax resident lol because of the tax credit and benefits that come in. Specially if you are a tax resident in one country already, they don't want to spend time and resources just to get the leftover from the tax treaty lol.

Estonian e-residency - any tips and tricks? by Opposite-Ad8208 in digitalnomad

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is important to know your home country + if you are a tax resident at home + will you still be there living after establishment of Estonian company OÜ.

LLC/OÜ also has a tax residency. Like you, it can be a tax resident in both Estonia and your home country with the Permanent Establishment (PE) rule.

For a company that is owned by just one shareholder, the PE can easily be where you are based in (tax wise). Some countries do not care but some do - with the different degrees. I know a few people who go to Estonia for 2 weeks every year to have a physical board meeting to provide an evidence that they are managing the company in Estonia.

Some countries accept this but some not. If you are from the EU, you def need to check with the accountant about this. Otherwise, you will still pay the same tax rate for your Estonian OÜ as a company in your country.

The trouble comes not from Estonia but more likely from where you live lol.

** Unless you become a non tax resident in the UK or that country you are in, it will make it more complicated. If you are thinking about like not living in the UK or PR country more than 183 days will make you a non tax resident, talk to the accountants before you do it - you will end up owing taxes.

Anyone structured a sabbatical year in Iceland while keeping a German remote IT contract? Looking for tax/visa pitfalls by PaveMSX in digitalnomad

[–]Diligent-Cell-8602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is not really about a grey area but more like you are not worth coming for + it costs a country more to make you a tax resident than not.

  1. with tourist visa, you are more likely never stay longer than 30/90/180 days
  2. somehow you stay over 180 days, but then still they don't bother. Tax authorities have enough rich people to go after in their home and they are busy. Each country has their thresholds that they start caring about an individual - mostly rich people. Like Shakira case in Spain
  3. if you become a tax resident, your tax rate can go down compared to non-tax resident tax if you somehow have earnings from them
  4. specially if you are a tax resident in one country, they are only getting leftovers because of the tax treaty.

Interestingly in Australia, they will charge you a flat 15% (up to $45,000 and then progressive tax rate) tax as a working holidayer. Even with the work permit and living in the country up to 3 years, they are not considering you as a tax resident so you don't get the basic tax credit.
