That was already an issue for the Greens. Now the SPD really wants to push ahead with it.

It's a good thing that I'm now looking more and more closely at emigrating to a cheaper and, above all, more investment-friendly country. I'm slowly getting fed up.

@ScorpionfromBW which countries are available and why? + what is your background - will you still be working?

••

@Aktienfox Georgia as an example. 5% tax on capital gains or interest as a non-resident. Interest on local currency around 10-12%. The lari has been relatively stable against the USD, at least in recent years. Relatively cheap life compared to Germany.

Background was now 530K in €. Of course, if you're looking for luxury, it's not enough. But with 1200-1500$ a month you can live very well even in Tbilisi

@Multibagger I'm already aware of that 😉 Vietnam too. However, I'm not sure if I could live in a tropical climate.

Since I can also speak Russian, and English relatively well, there are advantages to going to the former Soviet Union first. And it's not far to Europe either.

Let's see what work brings. My contract expires at the end of April, and if it's not extended, I'll have all the time in the world.

Because in my financial situation, I'm certainly not going to let myself be exploited by a loan club.

@sheepInvestment as if there are no doctors in other countries. Please.

You can get pretty good private health insurance for expats for €150-200 a month. In Germany, voluntary statutory health insurance costs a minimum contribution of €250-280 if you don't work and live off your capital.

A minimum income is used for this. Why is that? If I work part-time, as I do now, I only pay half the statutory health insurance contribution, in my case €130, and even if you add in the employer's contributions, you still don't reach the minimum contribution if you don't work. Where's the logic in that?

@Anderle Have you ever looked at how much money we really spend abroad? It's not much compared to the total budget

•

•

Anderlé MPoint@Anderle

6D

@Mathis_wlk In comparison to the budget, that may be completely correct. But for me as a taxpayer, around 520 million euros in child benefit transferred abroad every year is a lot of money. Especially when everything here is broken (schools, bridges, roads, the railroads) and nothing works anymore. At the same time, however, many things are becoming more expensive (at least subjectively). For example, the Deutschlandticket.
Something doesn't fit and you have to start making savings somewhere. But instead I'm supposed to work longer and pay more taxes ✌🏻

•

•

5D

@Anderle @Anderle, if certain conditions are met, e.g. taxable employment in Germany, people are entitled to child benefit. And this is not generous socialism from Germany, it is simply EU law. Incidentally, the amount corresponds to approx. 1% of the annual child benefit paid.

Austria tried indexing the child benefit in 2019, but this was scrapped by the EU.

This cannot and must not be the solution!!!

All of us here take certain (sometimes very high) risks when we buy shares/ETFs or similar and/or rent out real estate. If the final withholding tax (which is already very high) is added to this, it will soon be impossible to maintain or even improve your current standard of living in retirement.

@Tenbagger2024 I understand the resentment about higher taxes. However, the truth is that, starting in the 1990s, we have pursued an increasingly liberal policy towards the very, very, very wealthy. As a result, to my knowledge there is hardly any other industrialized country apart from the USA where wealth is as concentrated as in Germany. In terms of income, too, it now looks as if the top ten percent "earn" around 1/3.
If then the investment ratio of the state has also been stagnating for decades after adjusting for inflation, exports are collapsing as China is outstripping us because German companies prefer to sell existing technology instead of investing in new technology, the USA is now going "America first" and in this environment we want to cut the support needed by the poorest instead of investing in the state and reducing consumer costs (e.g. reducing VAT) in order to boost the domestic market in the current recession. Well, then the majority of this country will end up looking down the tube.

•

@SteelAnacott In short, I would like to say that it is not surprising that things are no longer working if I offer a very small part of the population the opportunity to accumulate the majority of capital over decades, do not invest in infrastructure and innovation and rest on a trade surplus - which also violates existing EU law to this extent - instead of strengthening the internal market.
Any third-semester economics student can confirm that a model with these parameters becomes problematic in tough economic times. Which is why I don't understand why the EU is now concluding that we are too expensive as a business location and that we need to reduce corporate taxes and production costs (which ultimately means wages). This will not stimulate the urgently needed demand on the domestic market. The wrong gears are being turned here.

In investor-speak: this portfolio was/is poorly balanced and extremely volatile and I fear the current measures will not improve this either.

••

4D

@SteelAnacott phew! I'll keep my fingers crossed that you're very successful at trading, maybe you'll be in the top 10%. Let's talk again about what you think then...😅 good luck 🍀 (I'm serious) Best wishes.

••

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

4D

@value_crafter_1628 That's the crux of the matter: you can hardly make it into the top 10% of this country by merit, but only by luck or - and this is the highest percentage - by birth into the right family. The vast majority of today's millionaires and billionaires in Germany have inherited their wealth, not built it up through work.
This segregation of population groups hinders progress and is even a threat to our democracy. Because a democracy thrives on the promise of social and financial advancement through achievement. However, we no longer live in a meritocracy but in an inheritance society.

And as far as I'm concerned. I have enough to live on and put something aside for later.
In Germany, we are very quick to complain about two things and to engage in a debate about fairness 1. taxes 2. state support for the poorest. However, we don't ask ourselves why it has come to this, for example, that the two richest families own as much as the poorer half of the population and whether this is fair and beneficial for our democracy - we seem to take this for granted to a large extent.

Always go after all the big capitalists... until they are gone at some point.
Such plans will then also affect all the small investors and private pensioners, because once again they will miss out, or it is the intention to grant generous tax-free allowances.
If everything is subject to double and triple taxes and levies, nobody will feel like making provisions, which the government claims to want to encourage.
