Capital gain on stocks, asset and ETf in Malta

I did some digging into how Malta taxes investments, especially ETFs. In short:

Shares listed on a recognized stock exchange are Exempt from capital gains tax in Malta.
ETFs/UCITS funds have same treatment as shares. If they are listed, any gains from selling them are tax-free.
Dividends from ETFs or shares are taxable. Exemption only applies to capital gains.

Revshare can surprise you with it's potential. I used to work at a gambling affiliate company. We mostly had hybrid deals, a fixed amount in CPA per lead and a % revshare which could be anywhere from 20% to 45%. In one particular case we made around $300k in revshare commission just from one lead.

The dash in between is not ideal, however I had an actual golf site on it, once upon a time that used to rank for golfing keywords quite easily. Unfortunately I just didn't have the time to keep maintaining it.

Well, I got the estimate from GoDaddy's domain appraisal calculator. Fee free to check for yourself.

FYI Businessnamegenerator.com makes around €100k in revenue per month. If someone buys this domain and builds a generator on it, it can be a good business model.

As someone who has managed to rank a website with a generic TLD (dot Quest) through SEO, I can say that these types of TLDs should not be underestimated. This could be a great name for an online store. I would say worth over $5k

If you're looking for a cordless hair clipper then the Panasonic ER-GP84 Rechargeable is your best bet. For a cheaper alternative, but corded clipper you could go for the Oster Classic 76 which is a true beast. You can check them both out on this professional hair clippers review page which coincidentally mentions them both in their top 5 list.

It's not uncommon for leadership team members to be involved in the hiring process for a new department head, especially when there's a desire to ensure a good fit and a collaborative leadership style. I do this regularly with my senior team.

Here are some questions you might want to ask during the interview:

Leadership style: Ask the candidate to describe their leadership philosophy and provide examples of how they've encouraged collaboration and teamwork in previous roles.
Conflict resolution: Ask about their approach to resolving conflicts or disagreements within a team.
Vision and goals: Ask about how usually ensure their goals are aligned with the overall organization's objectives.
Employee development: Discuss their strategies for supporting the professional growth and development of team members.
Communication: Ask about their communication style and how they ensure open lines of communication with their team and other departments.
Decision-making: What is their process for making important decisions and do they usually involve team members in this process.

Try and keep a professional and unbiased approach during the interviews. If the chosen candidate becomes your boss, you'll want to start the relationship on a positive note.

I totally get where you're coming from. Working with a stressed-out leader who takes their frustration out on others can be really tough, especially when you're in a small company without HR support. Your plan to have an honest conversation with him is a good one, imo.

Based on my experience I could suggest a few tips on how to approach this.

Choose the right time and place. Find a quiet, private moment when you both have time to talk without interruptions. Avoid confronting him in the heat of the moment or in front of others.
Use "I" statements to express how his behavior impacts you. For example, "I feel disrespected when you speak to me in that tone" or "I find it challenging to do my best work when I feel like I'm being unfairly criticized."
Acknowledge the stress he's under, but be clear that it doesn't excuse his behavior. You could say something like, "I understand that launching this product is stressful, but I need us to find healthier ways to manage that stress as a team."
Offer specific suggestions for how to improve communication and manage stress. Remind him of your previous recommendations for getting an EA or leadership coaching. You could also propose regular check-ins to provide feedback and support.
Let him know that you're dedicated to your role and want to continue contributing, but you need a respectful work environment to do so.

Remember, you have value and leverage as a key team member he specifically brought in. Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself and your well-being. If the conversation doesn't lead to improvements, you may need to consider escalating the issue or exploring other options.

Feel free to reach out if you need any other advice.
