Expenditure/Revenue Recap 2022

Money is what people talk about! #recap2022

In the sense of getquin, which allows us all not only to track our own portfolios, but also to discuss money and investments.

First I want to talk about my income, then about my expenses and be as transparent as possible.

(For tracking I use Finanzguruwhich I use since May)

First my income:

In 2022 I have 55.222,26€ received.

My main source of income is my work in the white collar relationship, there I have 40.464,78€ received (December salary outstanding). The rest came from "rental income" of my girlfriend, tax office, profits (shares, sweepstakes, Ebay) and Co.

The income point is I think but not as interesting as the expenditure point:

My expenses:

In 2022 I have 58.218,25€ spent.

The biggest chunk with 19.334€ lies there with the Living. The rent is always deducted in full from my account, my girlfriend then transfers your part. In total, I / we have paid 9,463 € in rent, and moved in April together. The Deposit from 2.550€ I took over alone (Rheinmetall 7er lever of March runs) and the largest part of the furnishings with 5.686€.

The rest comes from electricity, parking and miscellaneous.

Next comes Invest with 10.046€.

There went 8.213€ to TradeRepublic, 1.148€ in Crypto, 380€ in gold/silver and my little old building society contract was allowed to settle with 300€ happy.

The third point is 7.349€
InsurancesThis includes private health insurance and pension insurance, which is why the amount is so gigantic.

The PKV takes since August 3.487€ and the RV
2.425€Thus remain occupational disability with 784 €, legal protection, accident and liability with a total of 651 €.

Let's move on to a nicer point: Shopping with 6.229€

This of course includes forever of small items.

The ones that stick out are a new cell phone from $AAPL , a lot of $AMZN (+0.88%) and $EBAY (+1.18%) clothing $YOU (+0.61%)
$ASC (-0.59%) and a lot of untitled stuff from $PYPL (+0.6%) and Klarna.

But also some gifts for friends and family.

Right after even better: Food with 3.624€

3.315€ went to supermarkets and discounters (I work in a grocery store, so I see a lot of great and tasty things every day) and 262€ to $HFG (+0.55%)

2.913€ are for travel have been spent.

Of course beautifully well-behaved with $ABNB (+0.97%) !

Likewise, a vacation is included, which I will make only in February 23, but is already paid 🎌.

Finances and taxes forms a small loan from my dad, which I paid him back and Donations for good causes with 2.765€.

The 2.428€ at leisure expenses include books, subscriptions to $NFLX (+0.87%)
$GOOGL (+0.8%)
$AAPL (+0.88%)
$AMZN (+0.88%) and $DIS (+0.18%) , ventures, sports, hobbies, hairdresser, cinema and Rock in the Park.

The last of the major items that remain are Restaurants with 1.266€. The most went real restaurants at home and abroad with 684€ and 582€ to fast food from $MCD (+0.64%)
$DPZ (+0.53%)
$SBUX (+0.44%)
$RBD and $YUM (+0.74%)

The rest are then still smaller other expenses.

So... Holy Moly, that took longer than expected 😂.

I think I just took over an hour for all the analyses and the written record, but I think that I have also learned something from it.

Overall, I think that the expenses were ok, especially for the circumstances this year.

Next year I will invest and travel more and spend less on the apartment.

Who has made it down to here I would like to thank upright ❤️

It gives me so much pleasure to talk with you, to write posts and to get to know other views!

Absolutely gigantic thank you to everyone who has liked and commented on my posts this year! ❤️❤️❤️

I think that was my last big post this year, in the next it goes on 😃

Stop stop! There was something else! I want to know how it was with you!

I am clear, not all want to write something like that in numbers but I would be interested in how the expenses and income of you look in percent!

What percentage of your expenses go into investing? How many for rent/house away?

And to anyone doing a post on this, feel free to link, would love to see it! 😃

(Especially what a donkey spends on his meadow or a panther in Bali!).

EU - Payments with cryptocurrencies should no longer be anonymous even from one cent, EU Parliament committees demand. Unlike the EU Commission, relevant committees of the EU Parliament do not want any exceptions to apply to the identification requirement for crypto transactions. The EU Commission had proposed an exemption limit of 1,000 euros. The background to all the considerations is a package of regulations proposed by the EU Commission last summer. Like the German Crypto Transfers Ordinance (KryptoTransferV), which Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) proposed while still Finance Minister at the time, the EU regulation essentially deals with crypto service providers. When buying and selling crypto-assets, they are supposed to collect the data of the persons involved, keep it and transfer it to an authority upon request. According to the expectations of the politicians, this should result in transparent traceability, which should take into account the state's interests in fighting crime.

Australia - The Rest Super retirement fund invests in cryptocurrencies for its 1.8 million members. The fund manages more than $46.8 billion in assets. The company's CIO, Andrew Lill said he sees digital assets as an "important part" of the portfolio, but it is still a very volatile asset class. As a result, investing in cryptocurrencies will initially make up a relatively small allocation, as part of the diversified portfolio, which can build over time.

South Korea - The South Korean Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) has determined that NFTs will be subject to taxation starting next year. After classifying NFTs as virtual assets, Korean lawmakers plan to levy taxes on them. Starting Jan. 1, 2022, taxes of 20 percent will be due on NFT sales that exceed 2.5 million won ($2,102). South Korea has recently taken many measures to regulate the crypto market in order to target money laundering. As the NFT market rapidly expands in South Korea and globally, the regulation vs. innovation debate remains contentious.

Tidying up the small items

Pizzahut & KFC in the depot?

Yum! Brands, Inc. was founded in 1997 and is the world's largest foodservice group.

The company includes Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, The Habit Burger Grill and Yum Restaurants International ltd.

But how did the company come into being in the first place? PepsiCo had a hand in this, as Pepsi had bought out KFC, Pizzahut and Taco Bell. By 1986, PepsiCo was then the largest restaurant operator in the world. In 1997, however, the company decided to focus more on its core business again and therefore floated the restaurant chains on the stock market under the new parent company Tricon Global Restaurants Inc. In 2002, the company was renamed Yum! Brands.

Today, the company has more than 45,000 restaurants in 130 countries. The group's main headquarters are in Louisville.

🤖 Robot deployment: Mastercard and Yum! Brands collaborated to develop a human-like robot named Pepper. In 2016, they began using Pepper in select Pizza Hut stores in Asia. The robot greets customers, takes orders, and handles the payment process.

Current share price: €106.25

Dividend: 1.60
