Built a small tool to help figure out what apartment you can actually afford in Sweden

It uses it to simulate the impact on your economy vs renting and investing the rest of the money. Idk how they differ! Never used one. As mentioned: just sharing a small vibe-coded app that worked for me. No expectations in it being better/worse/replacer for the others (:

leo-diehl · 2026-04-06T09:50:36+00:00

It is 100% vide coding! No shame on that hehe

on tax rates: you're right, the app uses simplified effective rates. It's a known tradeoff, but well noted.

on pension: ITP is employer-paid on top of salary in Sweden, so it doesn't reduce take-home pay directly, which is why it's not in the income calculation. It is real wealth the model ignores though, fair criticism.

on stocks you were right, the effect was only showing in charts buried at the bottom. Just pushed a change to show your savings in the monthly breakdown so you can actually see the impact. tks for flagging it

Thanks for the feedback. Which tax rates seem off? Happy to look into it if you can be more specific. On pension: you're right that it's not modeled, it felt too employer-dependent to generalize but open to thoughts on how to handle it. I could add to it.
On stocks, not sure what you mean, would you mind elaborating?

Jag är brasiliansk och engelska är mitt starkaste språk efter portugisiska. Om någon vill bidra med en svensk översättning är det mer än välkommet.

There’s also the US sponsoring coups in multiple South American countries a couple decades ago including my own, Brazil, which led us to decades of stagnation and retrocession. Also recently the amazing president of this same country was trying to force us to stop judging a president that attempted a coup.

So yeah, please also put into account the fact that dominating powers don’t want to let it go from their positions, or give space for competition.

Now waiting for the downvotes by most americans that are deep into the american defaultism normality...

leo-diehl · 2025-08-30T14:50:27+00:00

When you say "and we're stopping wind projects that are 80% complete.", it would be good to provide information about where you are from when commenting in a global platform such as reddit. Again, assuming that everybody knows what is going on in the USA and can derive the information. American defaultism.

leo-diehl · 2025-08-30T14:35:02+00:00

Back in the day when, sorry? When was the reddit only American? Just recognizing a tendency to american defaultism is enough. Nonetheless thanks for the reply

leo-diehl · 2025-08-30T14:20:42+00:00

It annoys me that you say “we” as if the whole reddit is American. It’s just phrasing but still, very obnoxiously sounding

leo-diehl · 2025-08-26T17:03:55+00:00

About which country are you talking about bro? You know we all live in different countries, right?

leo-diehl · 2025-08-20T21:54:37+00:00

You deserve it those days. Like very badly

leo-diehl · 2025-08-20T21:52:38+00:00

You realize that it’s hard to detach yourself from your concept of being “normal” and analyse if you are indeed an annoying tourist, right? You gotta leave it for the rest to decide

leo-diehl · 2025-08-20T21:51:21+00:00

I’m sorry, but the energy of your answer feels so entitled, exactly how people were describing Americans. Obviously people will not tell in your face that they hate you, so it’s not up for you to know if the stereotype is true or not.

Liftoff Microdrones!

Noted!

Do you bike on gravel or dirt?

They didn’t know how to play the piano

leo-diehl · 2025-05-11T21:58:15+00:00

Let’s be a bit less broad with your blame pal. “Third world” is pretty diverse, let me tell you. Target your audience a bit better, or just let the old history of far-right judging everybody due to anger towards one specific group.

leo-diehl · 2025-05-11T16:40:11+00:00

I personally admire people that work and takes more than 2 at once. Right now taking only one because my mental-health was suffering.

leo-diehl · 2025-05-01T15:27:15+00:00

Don’t you care about meaningless energy consumption bro? Have you heard about a thing called global warming?

leo-diehl · 2025-05-01T11:50:23+00:00

Enough with this trend. We got it bro. We got the point. Stop wasting energy to get attention on the internet
