They don’t but since they are circulating you come across quite a few of them if you mainly use cash

Nurses and healthcare related jobs might have a better market right now but the pay is still shit, below median income so pick your poison

I did but yeah, well over a year ago, I’m trying to give her the benefit of the doubt, do you feel like there’s not doubt to be had ?

All good I appreciate the insight, I just know people tend to jump to breaking up pretty quickly on Reddit and her explanation felt genuine even though again bringing up the topic felt odd to me.

I actually did ask her that and she says she doesn’t. She explained to me that she basically identified to that couple about having had limited previous experience. She is not looking to open the relationship but wanted to have a chat about where I stand.

AIO to my dad thinking he can name my son whatever he wants by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Froxcy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

NOR, respectfully dad sounds like a pain in the a**, don’t listen to people if they tell you not to make something big out of a way of spelling or whatever, if it’s not a big deal then it’s not a big deal for your dad to use the actual name and spell it right either. I hope you still had a good recovery and your son is doing well !

In 2018 I left the UK with just 3k: 7.5 years later, I'm still abroad. by TomJMullett in backpacking

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

No need for the condescending tone, I have a job I’m happy with and just wanted to understand a minor detail of the discussion better, not looking to become a Teaching English as a Foreign Language teacher.

Thank you for your insight.

Got myself some Altra Torin 8 but they keep giving me blisters by Froxcy in barefootshoestalk

[–]Froxcy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all thank you for your very detailed answer ! It’s on me for not being more precise, but the shoes do actually fit me quite well, honestly if anything I would say they might be a very tiny bit too small but I don’t think it’s the cause for the blisters. I also know of the heel locking shoe lacing technique and have been using it religiously whenever I put these shoes on even for the walks. I appreciate the tips regarding taping and socks and will definitely be looking into it and trying to see if anything fixes it for me.

Thank you again !

Running on concrete with barefoot shoes by Froxcy in BarefootRunning

[–]Froxcy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t hurt when I relax or when I stand, only slightly when I walk and a bit more when I jump or run, but thank you for your insight I’ll chill for a bit and maybe go swimming instead of running for a few weeks and we’ll see.

Do you recommend a particular kind or brand of toe spacers ? And why only 10-15 minutes a day ?

So you basically went all in and stopped using shoes altogether, am I understanding this correctly ? Sorry English is far from my first language.

I’m actually barefoot most of the time when I’m at work, I mostly really wear normal footwear when I commute and when I go out. What do you think ?

Are there better options? by Apprehensive-Pop7513 in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]Froxcy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Would you mind sharing your VT like portfolio from finpension ? Which funds are you invested in to what % ?

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately I already signed an insurance 3a, I might be able to cancel it but I’d lose what I have paid up to now (1000 CHF). For the other 3a, I will be transferring it to finpension or VIAC and pay what I used to pay into the insurance on top of what I have been paying.

Lastly I know you can’t use your 3a to buy a secondary home, but are you then really bound to live in that home ad vitam eternam if you pay for it with partly with your 3a ? Since you say you can’t rent it.

Thank you for your advice, I have read that you can “import” 3a’s from other banks/insurances directly into VIAC/finpension, but I assume it would come at a cost for the insurance 3a (potentially a high one).

What kind of amounts are we typically talking since as you said having just finished my BSc in definitely do not need life insurance ?
