Eco-friendly in the desert and away from oceans... A sure way to have low fix and variable costs. Is this a remake of Ghost towns in China?

During my last flights, I always got 3 points seatbelts. Surprisingly, my 4yo was not allowed to buckle it during landing and takeoff.

This argument does not make sense. 1) +87% of the Swedish population live in urban area. ( https://www.scb.se/en/finding-statistics/statistics-by-subje... ) 2) Switzerland which is higher density has almost the sam

Actually it was the historical excuse. But today with 3DS2, etc. the fraud/complains rates are very very small. (I have had zero in years.)

CC processing business is hold by 2 American companies. When they warn you (through your CC acquirer), you have zero negotiation power. Comply or die. You can use proxies if you are a small company. But at onlyFans' level, the solution

If she were 70, it would not be a conversation topic (she would have been vaccinated as the benefits would considerably outweigh the probability of risks short, medium and long term). But as she is young, there is a big question mark. And a

My wife has a "light" autoimmune condition. She is very sensitive to this topic. She was strongly recommended by several doctors to not be vaccinated. Not because of the short term possible effects but because of the unknown possi

I wonder if returning to a more human/intimate offices size (vs open spaces) would not solve a big part of the frustrations about productivity. (Only because I remember my first offices +20 years ago).

Tripadvisor beats them all: I have been using it since its beginning (amazing product and amazing competitive advantage over other travelers). Today, it is a hall of fame of all the direct marketing tricks, black hat seo technics, anti-patt

Agree. Unfortunately today a Foundation is mainly a optimisation structure. Most of the countries have usually other structures (in their fiscal code) to encourage people to help.

It is a tool, you are right. But not the solution so it should not be so heavily encourage. What should be encourage: a better distribution of the profits in the value production chain. At amazon, Wallmart, all the employees should be obsce

Forget it. Tax offices are chasing the big fishes so they have all the tools to catch and bother the small inexperienced ones. Also running these structure is actually very expensive and complex. Normal citizen have only 2 possibilities: ca

Buffett always complains that he did not pay enough tax. He could simply wire 50% of his fortune to the IRS. His secretary had no choice. (End of sarcasm) They should donate to a foundation. They should not have link with it (direct or ind

If IP and shell companies infuriate you. I invite you to investigate why all billionaires have foundations or its cousin structures and "give" their wealth to it... Clue: tax and inheritance (tax) avoidance. Bill, Buffett, etc. ar

Let's simply say that for most foundations its only real purpose is to lower someone's tax bill and the most efficient way to transmit assets to one's kids. The name of this financial structure is so misleading. Honestly I fi

Many countries have exceptions to encourage entrepreneurship like the one you are mentioning. Issues are borderline capital gain strategies to avoid revenue gain.

Let's tax capital gain same as revenue and change the tax regulation for foundations (my wife is in this business and her blood is boiling with what she sees) and let's see how Bezos, Buffet, Gates, etc. will react...

Pump and dump friendly. Money laundry friendly. For sure this new scam will have powerful forces to drive its marketed attractivity to the roof.

If you are dealing with common goods, it is easy to detect if buy or sell prices are not standard. Also, IRS can detect easily if a company needs investigation when ratios do not match its industry. With art, buy and sell prices have no com

We also though so. The General Prosecutors of several Cantons politely made us understood that we were wrong (in case of criminal offense ). All our competitors provide the data without obstruction. We also now comply.

In Switzerland, a policeman investigating a criminal offense (délit penal), can simply request all the data about someone without the need of an explicit Juge order... How is it that great?

Comparing covid and pre-covid figures and being surprised is... surprising... Let's compare the figures in 10 years. For Swiss people old like me, we still remember the exact same misleading articles when Switzerland said NO to Europe
