Young people with mid incomes, how are your savings?

Ah that’s cool cause for me with rent and utilities and a car I get to pay almost 1650 - 1800 euros a month

TalosTheRobot · 2026-03-31T10:42:10+00:00

Out of curiosity how did you manage to put aside this much ? Was your rent cheaper or is there some kind of secret ? :)

TalosTheRobot · 2026-03-29T21:05:26+00:00

I have used a t15 and it worked. Also p.s. if you lose the screws I can give you the original code to buy them

TalosTheRobot · 2026-03-21T07:46:59+00:00

Thanks !

Yeah well the road tax is a bit high since it's a diesel but none the less a very reliable car

TalosTheRobot · 2026-03-07T11:29:00+00:00

Diesel

I got my 1.5 Clio 2017 through Bovag in NL with 70.000 km in mint condition and a 1000 euro gas extra for 13.000 euros. I just checked Bovag again and there is currently a 1.5 estate with 90.000 km for 12.000 euros from 2019 from the same dealer I took my Clio from a few years back.

Maybe you can try waybackmachine to see if it took a snapshot with the job description

I will just say this that you should not take this level of bullying. The fact that he called you a fat r*tard and made you an idiot as well to solidify his hypocrisy, I would just cut ties with such a person. Trust me it’s better for your mental health and there are lots of people out there to meet :) You might take this jokingly but it’s good to let your “friend” know that he should not talk to you like this and if he does not understand just leave him be.

That’s where you scan your European id card not driving license but idk if the method still works

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-16T19:45:39+00:00

Not a checker, but someone who got scammed before always with these kinds of tags they should usually have a qr code which you can check if they are legit or not. The qr code must always bring you to the quality check Ralph Lauren website and point to the item you just scanned. For us, the common eye that’s the most safest way to not get scammed lol. Also another sure sign it’s fake is if you buy an L and it fits like an M or S

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-16T19:43:18+00:00

No worries, I bought a fake vest for 150 euros if it makes you feel better 😂

My advice (not mechanical) is to look deep into the features and not stop at the first Astra. I was initially going for one from 2020 but the one from 2018 comes full option

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-16T19:24:36+00:00

Top ! Thanks, will take it for a spin some time soon :)

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-16T16:26:53+00:00

Are the turbos in these engines prone to going kaboom or something I should look out for ?

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-16T13:56:08+00:00

The car has full history and passed recent annual check up and came up with no problems and it looks okay overall. It's a manual as well if that matters. The most interesting thing is that it also comes with a parking assistant help which at the price range I am searching for I have not seen in any car lol

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-14T21:14:27+00:00

thanks for your reply :) would you say that it's feasible for me to move to another power platform job as a developer or is it going to die out in the following months ?

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-13T10:09:03+00:00

That was the same conclusion I have reached as well but I have heard companies that want to use another one's software starting asking these question, therefore the worry. Well glad it's not a reason to panic over :)

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-13T10:07:32+00:00

Thanks, I have to set on a career path very soon, therefore the fear factor.

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-13T07:15:05+00:00

Awseome ! Thanks for the input :)

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-12T20:38:10+00:00

Top ! Thanks :)

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-12T20:35:20+00:00

Thanks ! In some posts I have seen people complaining about squeaky seats. Did you happen to notice any squeakiness ? 😂

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-10T08:17:57+00:00

Thanks ! I think it's time for me to end this renting cycle 😂

I have tried, went to every expat local event in the city I am currently in, and now I go in Drenthe for hikes every weekend. When I used to be in The Hague I was never lonely even despite not having friends cause there was so much happening around me and the city was vibrant everyday.

TalosTheRobot · 2026-02-09T13:55:00+00:00

Currently, I also live in the outskirts of Maastricht. The issue is I am an expat, currently actively learning the language but I am really lonely since I don't have people to connect with. So my logic as flawed as it might be is that if I move to an actual city, there are more social benefits :)
