  • My mate is applying to Amazon as warehouse worker. He has an IT degree.

    My coworker in the bookkeeping department has two degrees. Accountancy and IT. She can’t find an IT job.

    At the other side though, my brother, an experienced software developer, is earning quite a lot of money now.

    Basically, the industry is not investing in new blood.





  • Sorry for the autism :)

    Why is the bottom right picture done like that, it looks like these feminists just want to be more like men.

    Why am I saying this? Because that position of the arm is there to show a bulging contracted bicep. Women have a lot less muscle there, so it doesn’t make sense.

    Wouldn’t feminism be better when striving for things that women are naturally better at than men.

    We don’t need to do the same stuff, everyone can do what they want.

    But don’t make a fish climb a tree. Everyone should cultivate their own strengths and learn their own weaknesses.

    And for women, being physically strong will usually be less attainable. Obviously there are exceptions. When I was 65 kg I could deadlift 140 kg, so a lot of muscle isn’t actually needed for strength, but still you get what I’m saying.

    This type of stuff, as I was growing up, made me actually believe men and women were the same.

    After years of talking extensively to men and women, I can assure you that’s not the case.

    There should be no stereotyping, but we are indeed different and do not need to be the same.

  • Never been in USA, but working at McDonald’s here in Belgium while living at your parents, with 2000 euros net from a minimum wage job… Yeah after a year you can buy the house that I showed.

    I’m sure you can work while living with your parents.

    Having the 25k euros is only step one. Afterwards you need to build up capital for passive income when you are in Indonesia.

    The cost of living is very low. the median net worth in Indonesia is 5000 euros. So with your starting capital, you’ll be ahead of the curve.

    With your English, you have some niches you can do. Like working for English speaking companies. Local or from your computer.

    most people that do this, go to Bali. But if you want cheaper areas, the place I showed is also do-able.

    Bali is popular because more people there speak English. For Americans, the Philippines is popular because English is an official language.

    My wife’s indonesian so if she wants to, we’ll go there.

    likely not, because I prefer Belgium. But I’m also not complaining about the high housing prices here in Belgium. I know why they are high. It’s because people want to live here.

    Same reason why housing is more expensive in Bali… People want to live there.
