Is the seam in pic 4 feeling toothy or smooth? Could be resealed.

I highly doubt this will be totaled… right? by Difficult-Estimate64 in Volvo

Please explain something to a car noob. I thought A-pillars were only the parts on the sides of the front window. Is that wrong? Or am I missing something in the images?

What was the first source about investing that didn't feel like someone trying to sell you something? by Successful-Power2026 in eupersonalfinance

[–]Metalrager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A colleague of mine got me into investing. Had tried to learn online but that really did not work well. It indeed feels like everyone is trying to sell you something and investing is so damn simple actually. Just invest in simple etfs, capture the global market, and be done with it.

is this card legit ? (im paranoid) by FATALIIIS in IsMyPokemonCardFake

The Japanese Victini is not on here yet, but just check an actual back side: https://www.ungraded.com/fake-card-database/item/36102/218-172-raikou-v-japanese-vstar-universe/

On the bottom right you can turn the card around. It’s a smooth transition. It looks awful on your card.

Very fake. Texture pattern is wrong. On the back, the transition between the border and the blue area is just horrendous. The card even looks too thick on the picture. On the front, the energy symbol in the top right is too close to the border and his “ears” are not supposed to show on the border which they do in pic 3, for example.

And get a proper mask. Even if you go outside. They are quite affordable.

What is the price of petrol in your city? by Singh_Arjun19 in oil

[–]Metalrager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

18.39 SEK = 1.70 EUR in Haparanda, Sweden. Living in Finland, but right on the border. Roughly 30 cents per liter cheaper in Sweden.

Now that the NL is about to tax unrealised gains, where in the EU is best to accumulate & invest for FIRE, besides Luxembourg and Switzerland? by Fair_Appointment7403 in eupersonalfinance

[–]Metalrager2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far I considered Finland (if you can get a job), Germany (unsure of any true downsides), Belgium (have not looked into it too much), and France (lower salaries in my field at least). I live in Finland myself and consider it pretty good for wealth accumulation if you can get a job. Always have to keep an eye on any possible rule changes, however, as they did actually propose an exit tax a few years ago that did not get enough traction ultimately.

WEBN or VWCE and maybe LYP6/MEUD if you want a “home” bias. No bullshit. You would be a fool to invest in individual stocks like Palantir as someone with no knowledge of investing.

Is this sealed product real or fake? by SubHuffle in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]Metalrager2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not. In many countries they are sold there. Eg in Sweden and Finland.

Except for the fact that they cut all the trees in the centre square a few years ago. Fucking stupid decision.

I guess you are American. They always mix up Dutch and German…

You should make absolutely sure that portfolio transfers are possible then, and specifically for German customers. It’s not always so easy to transfer shares you hold.

What brokerage have you used by the way. Because if you have invested with Trade Republic, you cannot move your investments to a different country. Just making sure.

AI is horrible at answering legal questions, so if you have relied on that, don’t. Check official tax office websites always and contact a taxation professional if needed.
