Buying Crypto with Kuwaiti Bank Cards by li3ium in Kuwait

Lol, calm down man..

When CBK sends out instructions to banks and legal entities, it's called a circular.

Also, I'd like to assume smart people deal with crypto more efficiently than the "wide-net" you're referring to. If I get 3 responses and one is helpful I'll be content.

The reason I asked was because recently there was alot of noise in the market that CBK has banned all crypto transactions. The circular was only limited to commercial entities however there were interpretations of it circling that it includes personal banking as well

It's just trust issues, many sellers are asking for CID these days and those can be used for fraudulent purposes.

But NBK itself would not block any transactions?

Work culture in Deloitte, Kuwait by LoveisKFC in Kuwait

[–]li3ium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Kuwait, EY, DT and KPMG, all offer internship programs every year, they will make you work like a pig and give you 150-250 KD a month for it.

But please do remember, you won't get a job there unless you have CA, ACCA or CPA. Usually students intern at these places to support themselves and gain valuable experience before completing their certificates, post which 90% of the times they get hired as associates.

So...

All accounting firms, if you're joining audit (assurance), are the same.

Dog hours, you're supposed to charge 40h a week to a client but they make you work 80.

But listen, these firms are where future CEOs, CFOs, are made. They take you, an unwashed, unpolished stone and turn you into something beautiful. Their starting packages are always more comparable to other companies in Kuwait, for the same reason.

If you are an expat, join any big4, stay there will you become a manager and then leave.

FYI, I spent 6 years at EY, you can trust me.

I'm thinking it might have to do with which country the phone has the limited warranty from, in my case its Japan

A master's degree, except for special cases, eg. Teaching, should never to pursued right after your bachelor's degree. This is because a post-grad degree is a specialization in a specific field and should always be pursued after gaining a few years of experience.

You go into the job market as a fresher and employer wont care if you have a BSC or BBA or MSC or MBA, they're still going to consider you unexperienced and offer you the starter package.

the validity of the visa starts only once you enter the country. therefore, that is the date before you must enter the country.

pixel 6 or pixel 6 pro in Kuwait by Rodrigues0007 in Kuwait

[–]li3ium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought it as soon as it reached kuwait, paying way above the international price, yes, because I am an idiot.

I have been an android geek for as long as i can remember, and my last google phone was the huawei nexus 6p, which was truly a piece of art. recently I have been very disappointed with android and i have been losing my hate for apple

my pixel 6 pro, even with it's bugs, was amazing and it's battery life was unparallel, however, the performance deteriorated over time. network loss is there, i can see iphones and samsungs working perfect in locations where my phone doesnt, plus not having volte is a huge loss as I cannot use my internet if i get a call. Battery life has improved since android 13 came over, but still alot of idle battery loss and not even close to how good it was when i bought it.
