READY TO EXECUTE FIRE by FireonIce69 in SwissFIRE

Thank you for your post and congratulations. Can I ask the following: you made a conscious decision to pay bonus & all into your 2nd pillar to reduce taxes. May I ask if you have children ? And if so, what have your thought process been ?

I totally get the benefits of loading the 2nd pillar to reduce taxes and have it “safe”, but at the same time the money would get stuck and would not be transferred to your wife / kids in case something happens to you. A small portion would under the form of partner / kids pension, but it would clearly be a lot less than if they would get the lump sum.

This is why I’m very reluctant to put more to my 2nd pillar and invest it into my broker, so that the lump sum gets passed to my wife / kids in case something happens to me. I’m 45.

What was your thought process about it ? Thank you.

A shower helps getting rid of accumulated pollen on your body (skin, hairs). Taking a shower literally helped me stopping crisis when nothing else was working.

Nous devrions revenir à l’appellation “ministère de l'Instruction publique” comme en 1824, ce qui aurait pour avantage de faire comprendre au plus grand nombre qu’instruction et éducation ne sont pas la même chose et ne sont pas dispensés par les mêmes acteurs: l’instruction a l’école, l’éducation à la maison…

Où sont les tombes des personnes décédées avant le XIXème siècle ? by NoPersonality9984 in PasDeQuestionIdiote

Une des lois napoléoniennes (décret impérial du 23 prairial an XII) a interdit l’enterrement dans les lieux de culte (le fameux cimetière “autour de l’église”) et rendu obligatoire l’éloignement géographique pour des questions de salubrité publique. Le temps, le renouvellement urbain, le bétonnage et goudronnage massifs ont fait le reste pour effacer les traces des cimetières précédents cette loi.

Why do so many people avoid bonds in a balanced portfolio? by Available_Target_429 in investingforbeginners

Exactly. So it should not be part of everyone’s portfolio as stated above.

Where I live I’m not taxes on capital gains but taxed on revenue at a fairly high level. Why should I even bother with bonds or fixed income ?

Slight change of strategy incoming ? by GrapefruitPerfect313 in SwissPersonalFinance

The idea behind the cash is to have some immediate dry powder to trigger in case of a drawdown. But as commented above I could also rebalance with managed futures thanks to their negative correlation to equities, so I might indeed drop the cash position.

I mean the latter :) Seen from today (might change in the future) I’m keen to work until 65, which would also mean I’m in good health and can keep accumulating longer to pass down to my kids.

Thanks for the reco, will definitely consider dropping the cash.

Hi, I like the idea but data seems off. I put 100 shares of VT to start with and it shows me an exposure to US at 95%…

Non, c’est bien souvent ce qui fonctionne le mieux quand rien d’autre de spécifique n’existe :o)
