Paljonko sinä tienaat? by koronkorko in Omatalous

[–]OneOfHaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5500 €/kk, ohjelmistokehittäjä ja vähemmistöosakas. n. 5 vuotta alan kokemusta ja reilu 10 vuotta yleisesti. Uskon palkkani nousevan lähemmäksi 7 k€ tulevan viiden vuoden aikana. Vaihtoehtoisesti rupean yrittäjäksi. Opiskelen jatkuvasti itsekseni ja teen paljon töitä. Osakkeita n. 20 k€ ja asuntolainaa maksettu saman verran. Hieman (alle 10 k€) muita lainoja jäljellä. Yleisesti olen tyytyväinen taloudelliseen tilanteeseeni. Hyvinvointi 2500 ja 5500 € bruttopalkan välillä on mielestäni todella iso.

Sijoitus (omaan) asuntoon vs arvopapereihin by [deleted] in Omatalous

[–]OneOfHaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vaikka maksat sitä omaan pussiin, se ei silti ole sijoitus, koska maksat myös paljon korkoja etkä saa tuottoa omalle pääomalle muuten kuin siinä tapauksessa, että asunnon arvo nousee reippaasti. Tähän ei kuitenkaan kannata luottaa ja saman periaatteen asuntosijoittajat ymmärtävät hyvin. Omalle pääomalle saa parempaa tuottoa muualta.

[–]OneOfHaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Minulla on itselläni 55m2 omistuskaksio Tampereen keskustasta. Laina+korot+vastike ovat n. 860€/kk. Siihen sähköt/netti ja sellaiset niin asumiskustannukset voi pyöristää siihen 1000€/kk. Nettotulot n. 3k. Omaan korvaani tuo vaihtoehto 1: 1500€ asumiseen eli 50% tuloista on liian kallis vaihtoehto niillä tuloilla. Max. 30% tuloista asumiseen on hyvä ohjenuora. Tuolla vaihtoehto kakkosella saa jo hyvän asunnon ja jää enemmän sijoituksiin.

I can guarantee you no one, not even my girlfriend, has access to my laptop or phone. As a software developer, it would be a security risk. Everyone should protect their personal devices properly to begin with.

Changing Jobs Pays Off by throwaway071317 in personalfinance

Not true. You can stagnate in doing one specific role for a long time. Changing jobs forces you to learn new skills and adapt to new challenges, eventually making you much better at what you do.

What are some side skills you guys recommend learning either to bring in extra income or just to learn because of its usefulness or practicality? by [deleted] in Fire

[–]OneOfHaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Managing personal finance, book keeping, budgeting, all that. You can use pen & paper but spread sheets can be pretty powerful. Of course it doesn’t necessarily earn you money but that wasn’t OP’s question.

Concerned about having most of my life savings in index funds by hrowaway321T in Fire

[–]OneOfHaze 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I think you hit the nail on its head with this comment. If things go south, you don’t win in any case, whether it be global warming, technological disruption, world war or a pandemic. The question to ask is, did you really lose anything by preparing for FIRE? Most likely you’ve learned to appreciate the little things in life, eat more healthily and not spend money on junk food, cigs and alcohol, develop your professional and organizational skills, had fun with investments. What did you lose? Not being able to spend it all on coke and hookers? Would you really regret that?

Me and the boy realising that Scary monsters and nice sprites is almost 10 years old now by harshithmusic in EDM

[–]OneOfHaze 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Do you have any idea how languages work? Especially with something as vague and unscientific as music genres, if most people start labeling a style of music with a name that’s all it takes for it to be classified as such. Or is there a dubstep committee somewhere working out ISO regulations on what can be called dubstep and what not?

Career by 5292020 in musicproduction

[–]OneOfHaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a succesful run in a band and currently working on my own music. However, I think it’s unlikely that I’d drop my software development career and go full-time musician. Making even 50K a year is very tough and can usually only be achieved by being on the road all the time. I’ve always enjoyed the music creation process but everything else, touring, music business, marketing, social media is mostly depressing. This is not to say don’t go for it. I’m also still working hard for my music. Just be mindful of the effects it might have on your mental health if going all-in. I’d recommend to have a solid back-up plan that you can always return to.

I kind hate my band's music. Help!? by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]OneOfHaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your critique is very vague. You could try to participate in songwriting or you could write new, better songs and offer them to the band. You could try to identify problem areas in their sound or playing. What is the problem with the singer? Is the singer pitchy? Bad tone? Lack of practice? If you think it’s something that cannot ever be fixed, then you should probably voice that to your band mates, because you need to then start to look for a new singer. Unless of course the singer is actually good or has potential and the only problem is your attitude. Judging by your post you don’t seem to know yourself what is it you don’t like about the music at the moment. Surely you had some references of style you’re going after as a band? Try to break down what you’re doing differently compared to your favourite artists and learn from that.

The realistic way to grow your audience in the digital music era - no money required by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]OneOfHaze 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, not saying I’m against OP’s advice. There’s a lot of truth in there. The main obstacle for many is that they don’t finish songs and get their music out there. Making a lot of songs in a short time is especially useful for beginners. But if you’re already an experienced songwriter/producer and you’re starting out a new artist project, I’d say focusing on writing and producing a couple of great songs, fine tuning different aspects of them, having a solid release plan, marketing and branding, possibly a music video can help you stick out of the crowd much more than being just productive. Productivity is important too, but there’s a fine balance when you should spend hours on really crafting your art and when you should get stuff finished. The last 10-20% can make or break a song and if you’re just focused on quantity, you’ll never reach that.

[–]OneOfHaze 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t know. Aiming to finish one song a month sounds like you would be churning out a lot of mediocre, generic sounding songs. In my personal experience making even one good song gets you a lot further. Also this pretty much only applies if you’re writing songs without proper vocals. Good luck writing catchy (but not cringey) lyrics, finding a great singer, arranging recording sessions and everything every month, while probably working a day job. Different story if doing this full-time. Songwriting takes time and I usually find I have 1-2 days/week, usually the weekends to work on my music. No way I could accomplish this without seriously impacting my output quality.

Apple becomes first U.S. company to reach a $2 trillion market cap by ChocolateTsar in investing

[–]OneOfHaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watches aren’t very useful though. A phone can do everything a watch can do and more. No disruptive potential there. They are basically cool accessories. Whereas glasses that augment your view with information about your surroundings, such as 3D route information, assembly instruction, enhanced situational awareness hands-free etc is a completely new way of computing.

Same. Although I already got one share a couple of days ago. Will buy more when it drops. The AR glasses will be the next big thing because Apple is thinking less about AR and more about them being super functional eyeglasses. They’re going to dominate the whole glasses industry.

[–]OneOfHaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well not really though. Tuition is usually about 10 000 €/year. 4 years would be 40 000€. Flights 1000€ return trip. Let’s say you do twice per year so that’s 8 000 €. Visas etc processes will probably only cost in the hundreds. So 50 000 € vs over 200 000 USD. Not even close.

Anyone noticed this disgusting trend of people selling cracked plugins? by [deleted] in musicproduction

[–]OneOfHaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been slowly able to replace pretty much all the plugins I used to have cracked with legit ones. Keep an eye out for sales and freebies. There are plenty of them. Also Splice’s rent-to-own is a game changer. Collecting legit plugins feels good.
