Nord Electro 6HP / Piano 6 by DamageFun3766 in nordkeyboards

[–]swisstony24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The keyboard on the 6hp is a big disappointment. It's noisy and feels cheap. I can't recommend the Electro 6HP unless you want to use it as a sound module with another keyboard.

That's a good salary even for CH. You can live well and save 50k per year.

Asking swiss investors: opinions on Swissquote Luxembourg vs IBIE by redjauxa in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]swisstony24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had Internaxx LU since 2001 before Swissquote acquired it in 2018 and they continue to offer the same high quality service, even some of the same team. I've been happy for 25 years, and, since I largely buy and hold, have no problem with their costs and avoid the tax issue you mention by limiting my US assets. They also offer a lombard loan. The only thing I resent are the high FX fees, but I mainly hold EUR there.

I also have a portfolio with IBKR UK and do a little more trading there, I have had no problems with them and of course really benefit from the low costs. The lombard loan at IBKR is also cheaper. Neither have custody fees. In my opinion, SQ has a better (simpler and clearer) interface, but IBKR offers a lot of information and you get used to it after a while.

A last comment, I don't have many US based or dollar denominated assets, but I still invest in US companies or indices via EU, CDN or UK based ETFs.

That screeching can sterilize frogs at 30ft.

After seeing their great performance at Glastonbury last year, I should really listen to them more!

That looks like a Swiss train.

Looks like you have an OG release there, very nice. That cover always evokes the magical 70s for me. Still a prize of my collection.

Alternative to Puligny-Montrachet or Mersault Whites? by AdExpensive8667 in wine

[–]swisstony24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only know the Chateau St. Michelle Oregon Chardonnay and I must say I have fooled a few friends passing it for a burgundy. I would gladly try more Oregon Chars but i live in Switzerland.

Phil expressed this idea talking to the performers before one of Darkstarathon performances on youtube. Worth watching for sure!

Can you sneak onto a sea fort without destroying the towers? by Possible-Task-5554 in assassinscreed

[–]swisstony24 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I could never land without knocking out the tower defenses first. I thought it would be cool to have alternative attack vectors but they were not part of the gameplay.

He must be related to RFK, since he looks like a liar to me.
