I think walking around outside all day and not having to concentrate really hard sitting in front of a screen also helps a lot.

It depends. When I was around there, they had some trouble with solar panels. Talking to them, they had no clue at all about electricity (just like many first-world dwellers I guess - and probably not enough money to get somebody who has to

I think it's funny that if you used to go to these countries for your job, and if you used bribery money, you could deduct it as business expenses. The law was changed in 2002, where it was still legal in non-German context and not con

I think the problem with the pension system you propose is that money is not actually real. The money will have to be exchanged for goods (which usually don't store that long, so need to be produced fresh) and services (which don'

The next time you buy something over 100-200 dollars, try saying 'Can you give me a discount please?' with a smile. Be relaxed and expect to get a no from them (just a small confirmation, right?) and continue as usual. It's n

Old home appliances are basically free. If you don't care too much for recency and efficiency, you can just pick one up from a neighbor here. For example, the city website where you can register to get large trash items taken away link

It's still an advantage if you only overdose on purpose and not by accident too.

And it is so much better, because when I'm thinking about X anyway my though process is not hijacked in an uncomfortable way by ads about X, and so sometimes I actually look at them instead of using energy to disregard them and gasp

It's not fair game in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy at least, unless you're a person of public interest. I'm not sure how Facebook handles that. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recht_am_eigenen_Bi

Maybe what is said about the aviation industry regulation - it is written in blood [0] - will be true about the software industry regulation as well. [0] As in: Every rule was included because someone (nearly) died because of it not being t

Why would anyone pay significantly more than appraising price?

Either that or send it on to an interested party, or have a very close look yourself I guess. AFAIK there are people out there very interested in what you might have there.

I see, though $100 is not that little.. I like mailhero (mailhero.io) where you can give out unique email adresses (free, but maybe better not for important stuff) but of course it is not very hard to trace. (It works like this: You have on

Mhm, isn't that one of the recommendations for freelancing when you get an offer that you don't really want to do and you don't want to say 'no' to their face? Give them a price quote so ludicrously high they either

Good luck getting the police to do anything about your stolen bike. If you're lucky it will end up in the database of stolen bikes and if they come across a stolen bike by accident they might check that database. I haven't persona

From statistics and research, most people on longer-term support really want to work and can't for some reason (can't find a job due to qualification mismatch, illness or taking care of dependents, ..). From the data it does not s

Do you only have one email adress? I wouldn't give out the main one, but some of the others.. or just make a new account somewhere and forward it to your main, then delete it if it ever collects spam.

Y'know, that's what I like about the European social security systems (not all of them of course, but some). It's just that, security. You can be sure you will have healthcare, you will have housing and you will have food, an

I think there also should be a concept of 'personal inflation'. For example, if you consume a lot of electronics and only use little petrol or whatever is becoming more expensive that time, your personal exposure to inflation is l
