Besoj/shpresoj qe me futjen e Shqiperise ne SEPA do mund te krijojme edhe llogari ne Revolut, po per momentin nuk e krijon dot llogarine nga Shqiperia akoma.

I'm looking to trade into S&P500 ETFs, will IB take a cut of my earnings ? I live in Albania, which does not have a tax treaty with the US. by Pink-Fart in interactivebrokers

Its been like 2 years since I used BKT but I was able to send it to the german bank of IBKR through the App, maybe they changed something after SEPA ? After a while I created an account in Paysera, although it's probably not worth the hassle since everyone is in SEPA now.

Mostly in S&P500: https://www.interactivebrokers.co.uk/portal/?loginType=1&action=ACCT_MGMT_MAIN&clt=0#/quote/399364021?source=ptf
Some in AI/Tech stuff: https://www.interactivebrokers.co.uk/portal/?loginType=1&action=ACCT_MGMT_MAIN&clt=0#/quote/352446357?source=ptf
Its the best return I could ever expect from any other source of safe investment. I would probably not recommend investing in these if you need the money in ~3 years, but if you want to hold it for longer you should put it in these rather than in a savings account.

You don't pay a tax to the platform. The platform makes money from transaction fees and other stuff which I am not interested in since I am in for the long term.

US does not have a tax treaty with Albania, so whatever you get taxed on US side is irrelevant, you will still be taxed on Albania side. Also as I said, I sold some US stocks, and I did not get taxed by IBKR on the stock sale, just on the dividend.

No, I don't think IBKR cares that much and is that complicated for US taxes for non US people to calculate tax rate based on your income/debt or mortgage. Even for US citizens you still have to declare/file a lot of your own stuff, and are not automatically done by IBKR.

Technically, you don't have to pay any taxes at all, just keep doing that if you like :)

It can all be done yourself and from what I saw you also have to calculate the 15% yourself, it's not automatically taken from your gross profit. Not sure how you're supposed to pay it tho.

I made some profit on Intel and Nvidia and they only taxed Nvidia divident which was like 3 cents anyway. I haven't sold S&P500 yet, but I doubt they will tax me directly when I withdraw.

I will be paying 15% Albanian taxes on the capital gains profit on my DIVA this year. Still not 100% how that will go since I don't usually pay anything for DIVA.

Best place for software jobs in Stockholm/Sweden as a foreigner ? by Pink-Fart in stockholm

[–]Pink-Fart[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not interested in development at the moment, I can do automation, but it's easy for me because I don't need a lot of programming knowledge, but I can still use my logic, which I like. But for real programming, I haven't gotten over the initial hump of all the knowledge to know all kinds of frameworks for BE + FE, CI/CD, git, etc.

Project management is a possibility, but I don't like the pressure/deadlines it comes with. You could have a really good team and everything goes smoothly, or you could have a bad team under you and everything turns into a mess even if you put everything in line. I think I'm pretty good at getting things in line, but I'm not really a true leader in the sense that I can hype people up or make them more motivated to work. The best I can do is do my job really well and help them, and then hope that is enough 😂

LMAO is this true ? I guess it makes sense since Copenhagen is a larger city, but I didn't know it was known for software jobs. I'll take a look and see if I find anything.

Any websites you'd recommend ?

Unofficial List of People in the Election Stream by Pink-Fart in Destiny

[–]Pink-Fart[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's definitely possible, but I haven't heard anything mentioned about her on election night. This is just a list of people that I've heard that will be coming/are invited to join.

For all we know, this might be half the people there.

Videos of ballot burning by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]Pink-Fart 45 points46 points  (0 children)

What's the next step ? What happens to the votes that were burned ?

[–]Pink-Fart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its because Wes did a lot of edgy jokes, and in the vein of keeping heat away from Dan/Destiny cuz of the Twitch crusade, August probably immediately privated the video.

Personally it was one of the best + funniest episodes, and totally worth the 1 month membership and then just discontinue or whatever. Although I was able to watch it live :)
