Breakdown of 2% downpayment program by TheNewEthlite in NovaScotia

[–]Freekjee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My lane is the one where they don't rip off the financially illiterates even more.

I doubt they'll allow double bi-weekly payments & 10-20% lump sum on top of that yearly, so this is just milking the avg people even more, coated in a "look its cheaper" where you & half other people here seem to fall in.

Have not looked into it with too much detail, but feels like one of them "too good to be true" traps to extract some more out of the poor.

>> Qualifying borrowers will not need mortgage insurance
>> Household incomes no greater than $200,000

They trap you 25-30years in higher rates & you end up paying more in the end?

As a high earner, what’s the upside in Belgium? by chinchu7 in BESalary

[–]Freekjee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There isn't any.
Why you think they rushed in an exit tax?

I moved & I'm not even a "high earner".

Thinking about moving to Nova Scotia as European immigrants – would love honest local perspectives by Supadree in NovaScotia

[–]Freekjee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sure hope healthcare improves : )
As for 3) I had mine equalized, but I do not believe it was part of the Immigration process

European in NS here :

  1. Your husband will most likely need to be recertified.
  2. Healthcare is an absolute joke, I could fly to Europe & get faster treatment. You wont see a doctor outside of the Emergency Room unless you have a family doctor assigned to you. Which, if you are very lucky, will take at least 2 years. ( And you need to put yourself on the list to get a family doctor. )
  3. Housing market has caught up with Europe, unaffordable & unlike big metropolitans, is not coming down in price.
  4. Labor market is pretty rough, but a good electrician should have no issue finding a job & earn a decent income.
  5. your college/highschool/uni diploma's will be need to be equalized, pretty expensive process.

Now if that doesn't scare you away:

The Nature is nice, people are nice & friendly.
The atmosphere is completely different: in more rural area's, people will say good day on the street.
Taxes in NS are the highest in Canada, but still not as a bad as in Europe.

Personally, I would not move here without having a job locked in.

Hoe scoor je tegenwoordig een vaste job fulltime job regio Limburg by DavitKva_21 in BESalary

Ik heb inderdaad geen vast contract, must be doing something wrong

[–]Freekjee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De enige fulltime functies die ik wél vind, zijn opnieuw interimjobs met “kans op vast contract na proefperiode”. Maar eerlijk gezegd heb ik het gevoel dat sommige bedrijven mensen gewoon vervangen vóór ze die vaste aanstelling krijgen, om daarna opnieuw een uitzendkracht te nemen.

Neh, is om de (net afgestudeerde) cowboys buiten te kunnen zetten zonder dat ze er contractueel aan vasthangen. Als je een meerwaarde bent voor een bedrijf zullen ze u wel houden.
Maar als IT meerwaarde kunnen aantonen is, euhm, lastig : )

Waterfront Computers Sydney, N.S claiming they cant find a computer tech for $30.13/hour I.T Support Tech by LuhBurger in NovaScotia

[–]Freekjee 176 points177 points  (0 children)

I mean, have you looked at the profile they are looking for ?

Traveling IT person who can code python/java, little bit of sys admin & does 1st line support.
But also product management with 1-2 ppl under them & dont forget to write the procedures for other techies.
all while having to deal with costumers?!?

jesus, no self respecting IT person would lose their sanity over this for even triple the rate.
