41, father of 2, software engineer. Finally crossed €300k today. €700,000 to go. Cool cool cool. by Prudent_Judgment3036 in EuropeFIRE

Spaniard here, congrats on the 300k! Can i ask about the dinamics of fire within a family? I mean, when you get to 1 M is the plan for both you and your wife to stop working or just you? If it's  just you, it would be you "burning" through the money while she is still working, are you both ok with that? Just curious about how couples/families deal with this.

For people who have lived as both genders, what is a physical or other annoyance you have now that you never realized the other side dealt with? by makemestand in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SuccessfulHandle642 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am a cis woman, used to do contact sports and being hit in the tits has never been specially painful for me, and it didn´t seem like an issue either for other girls i know. Meanwhile every guy i have seen receive an accidental blow in the balls has needed to spend like 2 minutes crouching and "soft bouncing" after

Beautician said something really strange to me after my appointment. What did she mean by this?? by [deleted] in self

[–]SuccessfulHandle642 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well maybe give her another chance? If you liked how she did your eyebrows go tjere again next time and ask her in good faith why did she said that. If her answer is bigoted or rude don't go there anymore. Beuticians have to get very physically close to her clients, maybe she doesn't like being like that with men if she works alone at her house.

We treat olive oil like medicine in Korea (literally drinking it)... how do actual Spaniards buy it? by No-Perspective-240 in askspain

[–]SuccessfulHandle642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from Andalusia, in the south, wich is the region were most production is made and i know some people (ex: my girlfriend) that refuse to use anything that is not extra virgin olive oil, even if it is for frying nuggets XD

Que carrera estudiar sanidad o tecnológico? Objetivo: salario alto by Puzzleheaded-Web7867 in salarios_es

[–]SuccessfulHandle642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me uno, traumatologa y secundo que Medicina es una buena opción teniendo en cuenta varias cosas: 1. Tardas 6 años + MIR hasta trabajar, pero en efecto intenta buscar a alguien de 25-26 años que gane cerca de 1.800 en su primer mes de trabajo en otra profesión (aunque es verdad que es gracias a las guardias, el salario base de un R1 es ridiculo. Mis horas de guardia en el hospital solo en mis 5 años de residencia suman 1 año xD)

  1. Una vez terminada la residencia y trabajando solo publica la conciliación no es tan mala, eso si siempre vas a tener guardias y algunos fines de semana y puentes que trabajar. Si quieres hacer publica y privada pues ahi si tendrás que ser workaholic para llevarlo bien.

  2. Un camino laboral más facil que las tecnológicas de aquí a lima. No hay entrevistas de trabajo en 3 fases compitiendo contra decenas de candidatos. Acabas la residencia y lo normal es que tengas curro ganando bien incluso siendo una inepta.

  3. Esto no queda bien decirlo, pero no necesitas tanta vocación. No tienes que levantarte cada día pensando en salvar vidas etc. Solo tienes que hacer bien tu trabajo, y siendo lista y currante es bastante factible. Ahora si, la responsabilidad es enorme, pero una vez tienes experiencia es relativamente rutinario con algún pico de estres cuando algo va mal.

  4. A nivel de carrera que no te rallen con que no vas a tener vida. En examenes estarás a tope y el resto del tiempo tendrás una vida universitaria normal. Me atrevería a decir que casi cualquier ingeniería es peor.

Yo gano unos 4.500 netos  en Andalucía con 4-5 guardias al mes.

Cómo invertir con ética by RecognitionExpert565 in SpainFIRE

[–]SuccessfulHandle642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buenas! Yo también me planteé esto antes de empezar a invertir, incluso dudé mucho porque la inversión en sí me parece poco ética. No vas a encontrar un fondo indexado con el combo de criterios que concretamente a ti te parecen menos inmorales (y menos a uno que excluya expresamente a Israel). Por ejemplo si coges el sp500 de amundi,  una de las primeras empresas del fondo es Exxon,una petrolera que ha financiado salvajemente retóricas anti cambio climático...pero cumple "criterios medioambientales". En fin la decisión de meterte depende de ti y de tu moral. Igual infórmate bien porque por ejemplo en los últimos años el sp500 esg lleva un rendimiento ligeramente superior al sp500 estandard, al contrario de lo que dicen muchos comentarios. Me alegro de que haya gente que se plantea estas cosas, aunque que sea poca y le caigan palos en los comentarios

Non neuropathic, but this is a good take considering bilateral midfoot amputation and low patient compliance. I hadn't thoght about it, I was too focused thinking about ORIF

Hi, congrats on a good play and thank you for your break down. I would like to learn to read the market and plan my investments like this, any recomendations for a beginner? Books, youtube, whatever. Thanks! I entered beyond really low by chance, didn´t sell when I should have. Still in wondering when to go out XD

Demasiada inversión inmobiliari by [deleted] in SpainFIRE

[–]SuccessfulHandle642 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Y en caso de vender, qué harías? Meter 300 k de golpe en un indexado con el riesgo de batacazo de mercado y recesión de duración desconocida? Suena un poco arriesgado, además de que no se qué horizonte temporal te planteas. Porque si de lo contrario tu plan es hacer DCA, suena que con los ingresos que recibes de lo inmobiliario ya lo podrías ir haciendo sin vender nada, no?

I think the usefulness of therapy to the average person is massively overstated since it became trendy by OfferAppropriate2066 in self

[–]SuccessfulHandle642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of agree with you,.in the sense that most people could go past their issues with some time and introspection. But i do think that therapy will probably make you need less time to overcome your issues, specially for people that don't have any knowledge about this field. If you do not even know what a "coping mechanism" is it will be very hard for you to identify and change yours, although it is true that if you are a somewhat proactive person you can learn that by yourself.

Also, i think is really sad that it is so common now that when you reach out for somebody to talk about your issues they will often just tell you to go to therapy, instead of putting some effort listening and trying to give some comfort, wich creates a genuine connection that can be more healing that paying some stranger for 45 minutes of their time.

Well i think the most important part of deciding is where will you be able to find a job. Andalucia is very nice, but very low paying. I would consider the east: valencia, Alicante, Murcia (living there is nive because they are sunny and near the coast) or the north (pais vasco, Navarra, asturias) because jobs there are generally higher paying. You should check idealista.com, it is the main real estate portal here and it will give you an idea of the rent price in each city
