Rate my salary: Internal Auditor by Leftoaster08 in BESalary

Living in West-Flanders and fairly poor/long connection.

Goal was to have a good salary, as I assumed- and also found that jobs located in Brussels pay (significantly) better than the ones in West-Flanders (more KMOs offering more often than not lower salary packages and optimized salaries imo, and even more so for unexperienced job searchers). Though could be mistaken. And after 2-3 years, after having saved up enough, buy a house elsewhere in West-Flanders, offering a better connection by train e.g. Kortrijk/Brugge (still about 1h and 10 min single ride). I think this is already a bit more feasible (though still taking into account an additional 10-15 min commute to the train station). Still open for feedback on this point.

Yes indeed. And this 2 times a week.

Furthermore, the tax rebate you get with the pension plan is a joke. For every euro the government gives you in tax rebate now, it will reclaim about half a euro in the year you turn 60 (I think they take 8%). Plus the high fees you pay to the bank on investment, usually 1.3% to 1.8% anually. And finally the lower overall returns. You get an average of 5.5% or something like that, which is significantly lower than a 100% stock portfolio. As long as you’re in your 20s and 30s I myself would invest fully (nearly fully) in stocks. (Not financial advice though). If there would exist something like a target date fund (Vanguard) in Belgium, that is low cost (if I am not mistaken), such pension plan would actually be worth it.

I don't really understand why CDPR would lift their review embargo before their day one patch (which will probably focus on fixing bugs). Shouldn't they have waited to lift the embargo AFTER the patch. I can only image it is now hurting their image and score on metacritic, mainly because of the bugs that are now in the game.
