    For what? Store licenses? Servers? You can DM me with details, maybe I can help you lower those initial costs. It sounds way too much to be honest, unless it's something really platform specific, but I can't imagine what. You probably overdid it.

    A New Path to the Fastlane - App Development

    EXECUTION 
    I mean working with dates, especially timezones and DST is always and will always be giga trash in programming. Especially when you learn that our date and time system is so fragile and has so many exceptions that it will blow your mind. So don't get discouraged by that. Maybe try to publish it...

    Lord have mercy last 2 pages are a shit show. I wish I was a person who can keep quiet. I don't have the time right now to quote everyone correctly, but in "short": - Unless someone nukes us out, EU ain't going nowhere, if anything it's going to get more united. While the current makeup isn't...

    To be fair, Singapore has a rather unique story looking from outside in. I can't help but to find it both inspiring and interesting. It's definitely a place I will visit sometime this year when I finally get to SEA.

    Fastlane business worth it if can make decent salary in big tech/FAANG?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    People with way less money, in way worse situations and in a way worse countries found a way to at least make an attempt. If you are struggling with just making this decision, I don't think this thing is for you.

    It's got nothing to do with you, it's just one of those "can't-see-the-frame-because-you-are-in-the-picture" things. I fully understand what Panos Daras was saying, I know that feeling in my bones. I vividly remember cringing when I read your post in this thread how Croatians are hard working...

    I think that is to be expected. Foreigners see your country differently than we do. MTF also said pretty good things about certain things in Croatia, which I find hard to agree with. That has nothing to with the place itself, but my life outlook and experiences. It's the same thing if we went to...

    IBKR is generally considered the best from everywhere I researched, and I use it as well.

    Trump’s “Golden Visa” Plan – A Game Changer or a Gamble?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I don't think people like you are the target. It's for sure not for digital nomad people like me. I think they want people who are building something or with much bigger purse who want to park their assets. Out of those places only Singapore and UAE are maybe in the same conversation. I think...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    It seems like a good thing for America if you include other geopolitical stuff that is happening. It reads to me like US is running draft pick for the best everything again. I think that is the biggest point of this and other charades, to signal, yeah US is in business. Other countries have...

    How does the Economy Work? Economics Unleashed: Powering Your Business and the World

    CHAT 
    Gold is simply agreed upon store of economic value, it has no intrinsic value to us as humans by itself. Same thing as 1 USD or 1 Euro bill, or floating point number in bank database. If tomorrow we all believed that crypto or YuGiOh cards are more valuable as a store of economic value, it would...

    No offense my man, the reality is literally opposite to what you are saying. Dollar has value because for the last however many decades of Pax Americana nobody could challenge US military, and that gives it value. Will that or won't change is a political topic, and not fit for this forum. Fact...

    "95% of all new businesses fail!" Why it is utter BS.

    ASSERTION 
    I hate these glib useless statements so much. Not because data is wrong, but because it's an idiotic way to look at the statistics. One person can start many businesses. If you start 20 business you only need the last one to work to be worth it. And sure, that equals 95% business failure rate...

    Eastern Europe in the cultural sense is the line of countries, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia (where I am), maybe Slovenia, Montenegro, Albania & Greece.

    We are more similar to you Asians in world view than the "West". There is a concept of Guilt and Shame culture, and most geographically Eastern European countries fall closer to Shame culture on that scale. "Eastern Europe" isn't a geographical, but a cultural term. Main characteristic is shared...
