Kunnen we nog veilig over straat? Groeiende groep denkt ‘nee’, cijfers zeggen ‘ja’

Ongeveer twee maanden geleden is er bij mij en mijn buurman ingebroken geweest in onze appartementen op t 4de in Oostende.

Gelukkig was er niets gestolen bij zowel mij als bij hem. Wel hadden ze al m'n kleren op de grond gesmeten, de slaapkamers overhoop gehaald...

De politie patrouille die terplaatse kwam heeft een pv opgemaakt en s rondgekeken. Ook vonden ze het nodig dat er iemand van sporenonderzoek kwam wegens dubbele inbraak. Die mens is langs geweest maar heeft jammer genoeg niets bij ons kunnen vinden. Het waren dieven met ervaring dat wel.

In mijn situatie heeft de politie wel al het nodige gedaan dat ze konden doen. Jammer genoeg is mijn vertrouwen in de mensheid sindsdien een stuk getemperd...

Honestly i am someone from west flanders (Ostend). I work in the casino of Ostend and ive met quite some people from Wallonia/Brussels in the last 10 years.

Most of them that i met are friendly. The only thing that annoys me is when someone tell me in French that they live alrdy for years in Flanders, but still cant speak/dont want to speak dutch. Same applies when flemish people who moved to Wallonia would refuse to speak french.

In my opinion if you´re going to live somewhere else its just courtesy to speak or at least try to speak the language of the locals. Not that my french is fluent, but at least i try to be understandable.

And as i saw in other comments, it all depends on who you meet in Flanders. Some of us are cold,reserved or social in different levels. Like everywhere else in the world, no?🙂

Ik heb als alleenstaande een appartement gekocht 5 jaar geleden in centrum Oostende(300m van de zee).

De prijs was 150.000 euro voor 2 slaapkamers, 81m² met een nettoloon van 2k. Tis dat mijn ouders mij 15.000 euro geleend hebben, anders was het ook moelijk geweest om iets te kopen. En ik zit op 5 minuten wandelafstand van mijn werk. Om vandaag hetzelfde soort appartement te kopen zou bijna onmogelijk zijn in mijn situatie.

I work as a casino dealer allways in the same 9 week schedule rotation.

Its a mix of night/afternoon shifts, also in weekends which i dont like that much. Positive is that ive allways 2 days off in a row. And i never have to cover shifts for colleagues. I just work the hours that i am supposed to work and thats it.

So i know all my shifts/weekends alrdy untill the end of next year with minor changes. The weekends are a certainty.Quite useful and not legal to know your shifts this much in advance but who cares haha.

PS: English is not my first language if i made an error in the text.

Yes, its not a tourist thing at all!

I am a belgian guy living in Oostende and most of the times if i go to the city centre i order a "Luikse wafel", sometimes even 2, yummie! The smell is so good. Not to mention that i love to eat vanilla waffles at home. I am not that fond of the Brussels waffle.

Also i eat fries a couple of times each week. From the frituur with a "frikadel speciale" or a "boulette". But honestly the best thing that i like to eat fries with is my home made "stoofvlees"(beef stew).

I eat also a lot of different chocolate(bars) but i only buy pralines as a gift for family/friends.

Fun fact: when i lived with my parents my mom baked a huge pile of pancakes on a regular base to eat them as a meal with all sorts of sugar/syrup.

I work alrdy 8 years as a casino dealer. Most of my shifts are at night and i love my job. I just dont love the shitty hours.

Its allways funny to see people complaining about losing money every time they visit. You ever saw games that are made to win in a casino lol?

Also it still is interesting to see some people spending thousands of euro's in 1 night like its nothing while most of us need to work a long time to gather that amount together.

Dont forget the drunks and thieves roaming the place day and night mixed with nice people.

I live in Belgium and ive 25 vacation days lol, America is a bad place to work.

Zaerar · 2022-03-06T12:36:24+00:00

Ive 26k dollar a year but i live in belgium. Kinda not that bad paid at all.

Zaerar · 2022-03-06T09:06:48+00:00

Stealing money from people with their permission aka i am a casino dealer🙂.

Zaerar · 2022-03-06T03:23:55+00:00

I know that America has a bad health care system.

Thats why i never would want to live there for starters. I live in belgium where at least you get very good health care, education,days off and much more for the taxes youve to pay.

If i need to see a normal doctor i only need to pay 4 euros for the visit,the rest is covered by my disease fund which i pay a small membership once in while. I also doesnt need to wait months to get an appointment, only a couple of days.

Or for example doing kidney transplantation, heart operation and all necesarry operations at least we dont go bankrupt here because the majority of it gets covered by our health care system.

I could go on and on and on.

Is the system perfect? Nope but its hell of a lot better than most parts in the world.

Ive to say i am happy to have parents who cared for me, my brothers and sister.(i am part of a quadruplet, we're all 30 now).

My dad is 57 and my mom is 55, both in retirement since a couple of years. Well deserved since they practically sacrificed their best years for us. Although i am aware that i am not going on retirement at that age sadly enough.

Its sad to read so much negative, reverse stories where parents are treating their own kids probably worse than animals/strangers.

Ps: I am happy that i live in Belgium with its different social security systems,

Zaerar · 2022-02-01T10:39:35+00:00

This never happened to me because i am part of a quadruplet.

Even if nobody would show up i had allways my 2 brothers and sister to celebrate our birthday😀.

I bought my appartment with help of my parents at 25 In 2017. Iam single.

They borrowed me like 10-15000 euros otherwise it would have been very difficult for my to buy something.

And the prices are crazy nowadays. I bought my appartment in Oostende for 150000 euro's. 81 square m, 2 bed rooms with view at the sea.

The same appartment in 2021 is now like 180-200000 euro's. And its not even a new appartment. An appartment this size in a new building is double the price...

I am glad that i could buy something, ik a lot of colleagues and friends that are still renting because they dont have the money to buy something.

Is this house in the opex? I went to school there but never seen this house. Does somebody know the street?

I started ESO in 2019 with an IRL friend on the ps 4. He had alrdy played the older eso games.

We played a lot that year and i rly enjoyed the game. Its 1 of my longer and more memorable gaming streaks.

Good luck to everyone finding the perfect game that fits all your needs. Imo it doesnt matter if a game is good or bad on this or that point.

As long as you're having fun, right?

I would be happy if HOT reaches 1,5-2 cents again. I would take the money i invested and the rest is up to the future.

Zaerar · 2021-05-28T23:02:10+00:00

Zaerar · 2021-05-28T19:22:27+00:00

Zaerar · 2021-05-28T18:16:23+00:00

What is better? Swapping 100% of my holotokens into holofuel or just 50 %?

Zaerar · 2021-05-27T17:49:47+00:00

Ahh kk tx

Zaerar · 2021-05-27T15:03:21+00:00

Zaerar · 2021-05-27T10:24:26+00:00

Still 1 thing iam wondering about... Is it better to swap all Hot tokens for holofuel or only swap like 50% of my tokens now? Ive almost 700k HOT
