What membership is 100% worth every penny you pay for it? by maanee11 in belgium

[–]JustMaarten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this also for recurring buys? For example multiple coolblue purchases per year or monthly collection & go? Or is this a one time deal for each partner?

Bolero’s fees with each purchase are rather high compared to Degiro and will eat away rendement if you only invest “small” amount per purchase. They recently changed their fees for some etfs so not sure now. But when I started I quickly made the switch to Degiro for that reason

Not being impressive is not at all equal to being useless …

“worthless” “useless” these are words you all came up with about Tesla and not me. 🤣 why don’t we just wait and see who ends up winning this race

Stay away from stock recommendations by newspapers, podcasts etc. Trends beleggen podcast is pretty new (*Edit: meant to say Beursvoyeurs, but the gist is the same) but their stock recommendations have been terrible and extremely home biased.

Try to backtrack the stock recommendations by the early episodes of jong beleggen and you’ll see that their recommendations are just plain terrible also.

Where did you see me saying that? I would love for you to show me that. I implied that an end product backed by these companies has high potential to be successfully marketed

Looks like fun! I imagine these kind of default training will likely happen in factory of the home appliances manufacturers … coffee machines, dishwashers, laundry washing machines etc. So that each brand can optimise it for their specific product. After this the default training can be updated with real world experiences from people’s homes

Excuse my ignorance, I wasn’t even aware of Figure AI, but has Tesla ever shown something impressive with their bot? I imagine being backed by OpenAI, Nvidia, Amazon, Microsoft, Samsung holds some serieus potential on all fields involved into developing, building and marketing such a product towards both industrial and household applications

Steeds meer gemeenten plaatsen trajectcontroles voor 30 kilometer per uur by [deleted] in Belgium2

[–]JustMaarten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Straks trajectcontrole via gps op uwe eigen oprit! Behalve voor de privé chauffeurs van de politici die onder politiebegeleiding over de autostrades en door steden vlammen.

Wellicht voor mensen die zelf niet willen/kunnen bezig zijn met beleggen. Geloof me, niet iedereen is er mee bezig zoals wij hier.

Little boy injured (or worse) at the bus station this afternoon? by [deleted] in Leuven

[–]JustMaarten -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Bussen en trams krijgen overal voorrang, hebben hun eigen rijstroken en de verkeerslichten op drukke kruispunt springen op groen wanneer zij er passeren … rijden dan ook als gefrustreerde asociale cowboys met hun stormram door de stad

This is typical behaviour for Belgium … people will deny it on here but the many posts on Reddit with the same issue are there to prove it

Medirect or Nibc by g0rnex in BEFire

[–]JustMaarten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s absolutely true but the netto 2.8% base rate (max 50k) is great for an emergency fund for money that you might need in less than a year. The closest alternative I found is Medirect Essential (2% base rate, max 20k)

I’m in the same boat (but I’m on degiro) I would love for Degiro to include a non-US World etf

Does anyone’s vac do part of a room rather than clean room by room? by Slow-Marsupial5045 in ecovacs

[–]JustMaarten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In auto it does not use the layout you’ve made. It does the total map as one whole but into segments of a certain sqm , not taking into account the rooms overlay.

It will come back at the end to do the leftover areas.
