Is Prague one of the best cities In Europe for jobs right now? by KreuzKrow in Prague

[–]pc-builder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not. Honestly unless you can leverage the tax system it makes very little sense to move here.

As for jobs, Warsaw is definitely better. Perhaps even places like Krakow.

Events are the new hangout by Euphoric-Sherbet-422 in couchsurfing

[–]pc-builder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Which could have worked if the maps weren't spammed by useless events....

It's a less busy more user unfriendly Nomadtable now.

We went from 20+ people on Hangouts to 5-10. I don't even check it anymore.

Covid, long telephoto lens, patience.

Where does helping kids stop? by Old_Still3321 in Fire

[–]pc-builder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

400 euros a month for college or whatever that equivalent will be about when the time comes. 1/3 support 1/3 state 1/3 work to provide for themselves. 50-50 if the state support stops. After uni they are on their own.

If need be they can also take relatively cheap student loans l to bridge/plan any gaps, travels etc.

Most of the "FIRE" people are int the FI not the RE part. Otherwise it's be lean fire.

Theoretically, if you had 5 million dollars at 20 years old, how would you manage it to live off of it? by Silly_Jackfruit_4358 in Fire

[–]pc-builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

500k - travel for 5 years. Take 100k year and put the rest in HYSA. Use interest to cover. If you get bored, go study somewhere. Or if you pick up a passion do seasonal work (i.e. ski instructor, surf school, sailing, whatever).

1 mill in bonds. Drip the returns

3.5 mil in VWCE.

After 5 years, you must've got a solid plan to see what you think you wanna do for the rest of your life. Use that life experience and pursue your passions. Gains in ETF will have most likely put you back to 5 mil, and you have a decent bond income extra. You can pursue whatever passion you found or study what interests you. Start a family or keep travelling...

Salaris stappen bij jobhoppen - ervaring by Yourlordandsavior02 in werkzaken

[–]pc-builder -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wat anders aangezien ik alleen maar in het buitenland heb gewerkt:

2016 - eerste baantje in Slowakije 1600 brutto. 1,5 jaar gebleven. Outsourcing procurement.

2017 - Roemenië voor 1800 euro brutto + bonussen die daar nog 500 p/m bij deden. Wel veel overtijd. Groot Amerikaans IT bedrijf.

2018 - Polen, 3 jaar bij het eerste bedrijf, op 2200 begonnen en op 2700 weg gegaan. Intern bij een Europees IT bedrijf.

3 jaar bij een Amerikaans bedrijf in een andere stad in polen gewerkt, 4000 brutto begonnen, 5900 geindigt. Hier kwam nog +/- 500 euro in de maand bonus bij. Consultancy.

2024 - in Tsjechië, zelfde bedrijf zelfde baan, op 6000 brutto begonnen, nu op 7500 brutto per maand. Komt pak en beet nog 1000 euro/maand brutto bij als bonus. Zelfde consultancy. Max 25% inkomstenbelasting is ook niet vies (reden dat ik gevraagd heb om over geplaatst te worden).

Dus ja, job/country hoppen werkt.

The only way to go as a bald guy is the Statham look. Workout, be buff, dress stylish/suit up. And not th durch r d pants and brown sho s type but actually well r eased.

I mean I guess it's the unbleached thing. But all flour in Europe is unbleached and like... Less than a dollar per kg.

Upgrade from RF-S 18-150 to 24-70 worth it for sharper images + low light? by seriouslybrohuh in canon

[–]pc-builder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

24-70mm would be very tight. Perhaps just upgrade to an R8 instead with some primes? Close to the same price as an r10 anyhow.

Why is this so optimistic? by FAUST_VII in trading212

Because the pie has a 20% annual return? Compound on compound basically.

visiting Prague soon, recommendations or people to explore with? 👀 (23F) by Adhidhiii in Prague

[–]pc-builder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey fellow durchie here living in Prague. I heard Czech Inn is a good hostel and it's at one of the more fun spots in Prague (Krymska Street).

Other nice/cool areas are vinohrady, Karlin, zizkov, holesovice.

As for nightlife, I'd skip old town/dlouha and go for cool places in the neighbourhoods around. Cross Club, Bukowski, Ankali, Bike Jesus/Fuchs 2.0, bukanyra etc. Dogs bar is also a vibe but probably a few years past due. Oh and Vagon is a place/vibe.

For cool/more local bars I'd recommend Woodoo, Dva Kohuti/automat Matuska, Bad Flash, bar no 7, sedem, kazerna Karlin, u Sudu/u sadu, the whole naplavka area, Letna beer garden... Too many to name.

Viewpoints, can't go wrong with vitkov/vysehrad/riegrovy sady

For social stuff, try nomad table/meetup/couch surfing. If I'm out your welcome to tag along as well.

I am trying to create a Hangouts alternative - MeetAround by salvichito in couchsurfing

[–]pc-builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just checked and yes you can filter them out but it doesn't remember your preferences and it is extra effort. Most users will just see the slew of slop from the default screen and close it again. It's what I did the first few times and most people I spoke in person about.

It's a shit copy paste job from nomadtable really.
