- self_awareness 3y agoUnless your money doesn't come from your "salary", and you declare "the salary" to be $1 a year. Then you pay nothing for double parking even if you're firthy rich.
- Ekaros 3y agoAlso dividends and unearned income are calculated into the income which of the fines are calculated from. So unless you spend money you got from selling stuff year or two back you still have to pay.
- Technotroll 3y agoIs that really true, though? As far as I know it's based on disposable income after tax and necesary living expenses. Meanwhile if it's a businessman without a stated income that year, the court may still base the fine on net worth, assets and investments. I would love it if a Finish person could expand upon this, though.
