Mais non, maintenant je dois utiliser un langue d'une autre groupe :(

Bist du richtig in deinen kopf mein freund

How is he not dumb? I've seen his texts in private chats. That's not meant for the public. And god damn does he seem dumb

That's just because all the development happened in cities. It's easier to educate people when they live in a place with more funding.

In 2020 or so the income inequality in china was equal to that of USA. Meaning that rural places didn't have sufficient funding.

But now the gini is down to 0,36. Meaning that there's more widespread funding.

China seems to be willing. While the inequality in USA is by design to attract capital

Ghebt geen flauw idee wa ge over zevert manneke

Ah, well, you see, that's just silly. Thought we could have a fun little game here but you're a teenager

What would make someone one of the "best people" beside of course living in the same area as you do 🤪

Nobody knows bruv.

Lump sum investing wins from DCA 2 out of 3 times, and well bruv.. the market crashed 15%. I'mma keep it for my child in my wife's uterus. I don't need the money.

Do what fits your goals

Aight, of the 15% total crash, I'm 3,5% in it. Gonna put in the rest of my spare money next week and see the result.

That crash wiped out a year of gains, and I'm interested in the future. This is due to a few people in power, not because of tsunamis etc. So this can switch over in just a day.

Just cannot know when that day will be 👴🏻

They are welcome to come here. I wouldn't wanna live in a country with someone like Trump either.

"Bart De Wever was not a member of the Vlaams Blok. He was critical of the party and its successor, Vlaams Belang, and has stated that he resisted offers to join the Vlaams Blok. Instead, he began his political career with the Volksunie party and later became a founding member of the Nieuw-Vlaamse Alliantie (N-VA)."

What exactly do you mean with "VB to NVA".

If Bart de Wever was really into VB, then he would simply form a coalition with VB.

Aight. From r/Belgium2, which probably are major NVA voters. I'd gather that the main reasons would be: lower government spending (hello, Putin and Trump). Putting more people to work, by activating people that are long term sick while able to work. Activating people that are long term unemployed. Delaying retirement. Reducing taxes on working people so that the gap between working and not working becomes larger. Economic investments.

The majority of his voters are quite upset bout the capital gains tax that my vote has brought upon them. Since they view it as an extra tax on middle class. (It isn't, just sell 10k+index capital gains per year).

Nva also wants to reduce or even abolish inheritance tax. With a median net wealth of 250k euros PER ADULT. That is quite desirable. Within an aging population. Let's say every child gets about 350k euros in inheritance. If they are dummies and don't gift it properly then they pay 40k euros in inheritance taxes. (60k if it comes from one single parent, so let's say 40k).

It is mostly the middle class that votes for nva, for economic reasons, which is why they are so large.

I would like to see some dirt on them though. And any other Belgian political party. Always fun to see :)

They all probably are filling their own pockets one way or another, funny that le Pen fucked up big time for a mere 4-5 million euros of expense savings in 12 years time.

Tegenwoordig heeft bijna de helft van de populatie in Antwerpen een migratieachtergrond. De stad telt ten minste 166 verschillende nationaliteiten, wat de variatie weergeeft van de migrantengroepen in Antwerpen. De grootste groepen met een migratieachtergrond zijn afkomstig uit Marokko, Nederland, Turkije en Polen.

Achtergrond, niet gewoon eerste generatie. Trouwens, een kwart van de bevolking geboren buiten het land? Dat is bijna Zwitserland.

It's true that we're not actually importing people, we don't have to. They come themselves. Through family reunification mostly. Which is amazing, as they already have to have decent income and sufficient housing in order to do so. So yeah, probably the wrong word.

Okay.. maybe I'm just doing a bad job here and you can do it better than me. We both don't vote for Bart de Wever, our most popular politician.

What are the good things about him? Why does the majority of our region vote for him?

Also, I do view a median net wealth of 250k euros wealthy. You can move to Indonesia and live like those "elites". A house in Indonesia costs 25k euros. The cost of living is quite low, you can definitely cover it with passive income.

But, perhaps, they'll do a revolution and guillotine you. Who knows

Then don't buy a house, invest in the stock market. It has the same return on investment.

It's a lot more available, you don't pay interest to the bank. You have more job opportunities.

I'm not interested in buying a house. It just locks me down.

I'm not like my dad who worked the same job for 40 years. Times change

Job hopping every few years increases your income

I don't have a car. Never needed it, i've had 4 different jobs already.

It's the same as having a house, but far more liquid.

Be an attractive human being and find a partner, we have an aging population. Go breed. Seriously, I am disgusted by people that can't form long lasting relationships.

Getting a house... Better done with bank's money, not your own money. Even when you can buy it outright, still better to get the bank to fund most of it.

Have fun living in the same spot for decades then

I'm quite aware that I'm sexist, I will raise my kid differently based on the gender.

No, not sarcasm. It's the opinion of every woman I've talked to ever since this case.

When me and my wife went to gynaecologist since she's pregnant, the funny surprise was that she had to insert basically a dildo camera into her genitals in order to see the fetus.

Leave that job to women. All the gynaecologists at the hospital were women anyways, everyone will prefer a female doctor for things like this.

Yes. Stop being poor, the tools are available.

Tax paid education. Tax paid healthcare. Unemployment benefits. Sick pay. Social housing. Good economy. Train is paid by the employer. E-bike leasing paid by your taxes. Child benefits. Daycare subsidies. High minimum wage. Difficult to get fired. Notice period when fired. Can't get fired when pregnant. Maternity leave. You can buy a social house from the government if you agree to live there for 20 years. Wages indexed to inflation. During economic crisis, the companies are pretty much forced to endure it temporarily instead of laying off workers temporarily. Buying first house is 3% tax while buying the 2nd+ house is 12% tax. During energy crisis, people got helped with energy bills. It's well funded to teach people Dutch for free, the VDAB areas look like it's for royalty, ...

Just stop being poor

Trump inauguration date: Tesla 426 USD per stock

He did a little oopsie

Come on bruv, they even literally say it's Israeli military

Yes, everything I am saying here is based on high social mobility, high median net wealth and high minimum wage. I like my capitalism in the hands of many.

1 FTE should always allow someone to save up a good amount of money. The minister in Flemish parlement I voted for is investing in social housing now. Relieving pressure on renters from private options. I do want both public and private options, government doesn't need monopoly like in Singapore.

i view these things as trampolines, not as crutches.

Like at my work, newbie comes from a home where neither parent could work. Father is blind/deaf and mother takes care of him. Idk how they did it, but they own a house. I'm completely fine with that, I prefer to work than to be blind/deaf, by a lot.

But I've also been talking to an older guy who has no money at all, 57 years old, lives in social housing and didn't work for more than 5 years because "his knees hurt". Not a fan of him. His daughter starts life with the basic package because he never really tried.

But I'm very happy that his daughter has all the opportunity. She's educated and can choose her own path. (She can't move out until his pension or he will lose a lot of his monthly income).

We have an aging population, so it's fine I guess. Money to raise a kid.

Like I'm a fan of immigration not for the first generation but the second generation. That's the real investment. Even though nowadays first gen immigrants will be quite better, as education in the world has been drastically improving.

What our prime minister did first, was limit unemployment benefits to 2 years and increase the unemployment benefits in the first year. That's good. It needs to be insurance, not an early retirement alongside your other passive incomes.

I don't want people to hate rich people, I want them to become rich. I want them to feel good in the country they grew up with. View people as equals socially.

Personally I can't imagine not growing as a person when working 38 hours a week. If you don't learn anything, please change job. They are wasting your time.

But my wife has that choice. She's working part time as cleaner while learning Dutch. Now she's pregnant and for the time being she will just continue working part time as cleaner. It's nearby our home so it's very convenient. She pays basically no taxes, it's pretty good for us financially. She has a law degree from her country of origin, so she can likely just get a career option if she so wishes. But she prefers to focus on being a mom. Her choice. We'll get 250 euros per month for the kid. I'll pay 50 euros fewer taxes every month. We'll get a free stroller and car seat. Giving birth will be 300 euros. They'll give us 1200 euros at birth.

Personally I cannot understand the desire to not grow qualifications. Learning things is fun. It's very boring to go week in week out without learning anything.

But yes there are people that don't care. My wife can choose what she prefers. Both are adequate options. Spending more time with our kid is valuable. Honestly I think our aging population is because people work too much. My grandmothers didn't work, my mom worked part time. My wife's sisters and mom don't work.

So it's definitely a complex thing.

I don't think someone needs a job in order to learn things either. But it's quite useful. I hope she gets an opportunity for a different job that also is easily manageable with a family while also learning more things.

The good thing about cleaning is that she gets a good workout out of it. 4 hours per week day, it's social. She sees dogs etc. People are nice. (Not the old ones that can't speak English and are more of the funny old racist generation)

Basically, a country needs to be designed in such a way that when you're poor at age 57, it's your own choice.
