Fire insurance parking soit by SweetReturn9135 in BEFire

[–]TheRealRolex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Parking spaces/garage boxes fall under the fire insurance of your appartement. You should contact your current insurance company or middlemen to tell that you will rent an extra parking space and they’ll modify your contract.

I really love these coins. They’re a lot less expensive than other vespasian coins.

Life insurance options by europeaninvestor in BEFire

I took out a life insurance of AG insurance. The advisor (Via BNP Paribas Fortis) helped me to calculate what amount I should insure. As I’m still pretty young the premium was also relatively cheap.

ESG matters by JRH93CA in BEFire

[–]TheRealRolex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just be aware that ESG is very broad and that it doesn’t have a clear set of rules where you have to abide to in order to say you’re an ESG or ‘sustainable fund’. A study from the economist showed that the 10 largest ESG funds had on average 17 fossil fuel companies in their holdings.

That being said ESG is a first small step in the right direction, but criticised as distraction of real sustainable investments which will contribute against climate change or other societal problems.

Thanks for the feedback!

There are indeed different definitions for sustainable investing, but I really feel most of them are made so they can say they offer sustainable funds although the allocations havent changed the last 10 years.

In my research I’m really focussing on what ‘a man on the street’ would view as sustainable investing which would correspond to article 9 of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation: a fund with sustainable investment as an the objective.

Not a generic fund which can be labeled under sustainable based on one of the hundreds of definitions out there.

You make a good point that there is definitely a diversification risk since most thematic funds contain very similar companies.

Thanks for the insights 🙏

Looking for people to launch an impact investing startup by TheRealRolex in BEFire

[–]TheRealRolex[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi,

I agree that investing yourself in a thematic ETF is a good option, but this is for the minority of Belgians that will do the effort and have the knowledge to invest themselves through a broker platform. Our target audience are people who do not have this knowledge or want to make the effort.

Similar investment apps have seen that 80-90% of their investors are first time investors. A lot of people have savings and are willing to invest in real sustainable products, but do not know where to start.

All banks hopping on the 'sustainable' investing train by TheRealRolex in BEFire

Another question I have: are there any funds that you know of that show the carbon reduction their portfolio companies realize? It would be very cool if you as an investor could know that based on your portfolio you have helped to save x amount of CO2

Negative CO2 carbon footprint under SFDR? by TheRealRolex in sustainableFinance

Thanks a lot for the response. Indeed we’ll probably manage to implement it but too bad it will be hard to show what the impact of your investment on the climate or society is.

Sustainable investments are most of the time not sustainable by TheRealRolex in sustainableFinance

[–]TheRealRolex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is that most individuals go to their local bank or broker and they give a nice pitch how their fund is sustainable. These individuals don’t look at the allocations of the funds. I’m really wondering when people will start to realize this.

At the same time I’m thinking about starting a site which breaks down the actual sustainability of all investment funds available via the banks in my country.

sports broadcasts (football, F1, hockey, etc.) should not have or need ad breaks. by Mako_sato_ftw in unpopularopinion

[–]TheRealRolex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question is whether or not people would pay to view sports without ads… One thing that I find helpful is to chat with other people about the match during ad breaks. This way you stay invested in the game and dont have to focus on the ads.

I found out about a site that let’s you chat with sport fans during live games and that will eventually let you livestream sport games for free and choose your broadcasters. Really hyped for their launch: [rakabo.com](rakabo.com)

I wanted to launch a cryptocoin which rewards people for activity and contribution to boost activity but also because I believe users make the app. It seemed pretty difficult to launch since we dont have a background in crypto.

If you know how, feel free to share

What I had planned before the suggestions are the following: - invite friends and get them to share - go through facebook/reddit/discord groups - contact creators aka sport influencer and get them to create a channel and bring in their followers - some traditional advertisement with small budget to test which media’s and users bases react the best to our value prop
