    INTRO 
    You are quite welcome, Verena. I'm on LinkedIn or Xing as Christopher Penningroth or Chris Penningroth; those are good places to connect for business in any case.

    What corporation to choose living in Germany?

    QUESTION 
    I'm not sure why they make it so complicated to take nearly all of your income, but they figure it out, don't they? @theag is right on the money. A good Steuerberater is worth his weight in gold. @Marco L: As you go farther down the road, expect to have to register with the Allgemeine...

    INTRO 
    Grüß Gott, Verena! My wife is a commercial real estate attorney in Munich, I wonder if she's worked with any of your firms? I live in an area that is rapidly tearing down old bungalows and constructing multifamily (i.e. space-limited) condominiums. I can walk out my door and see at least four...

    Starting a book business? Any advise is appreciated

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Hi @SudeepRaj! I couldn't find any information quickly regarding average salaries in tier 2 cities (I'm not sure how to translate Rs ___ lakhs per annum into a number I can understand). It looks like there are universities in tier 2 cities, and if the work-from-home or work-from-anywhere trend...

    Any good self-management books?

    BOOKS 
    Either Today Matters or Make Today Count (both by John C. Maxwell), if you must read something that will help you focus. @luminis_ and @Andy Black and @ZCP are right. I particularly liked @luminis_'s detailed advice.

    How to deal with wanting to do so many things at the same time ?

    MINDSET 
    It is completely normal to feel this way. Consider allocating a sensible amount of time to this, and keep an eye out for someone that not only has good character but is supportive of the entrepreneurial lifestyle and your business in particular. Is this likely to support any of your short-...

    Grüß Gott, Aishwarya! I'm new to the forum. I am not from Germany but I spend a great deal of time in Bavaria. How is your startup going?

    It's a classic for a reason: How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. Emotional Intelligence by David Goleman (I'm about a third of the way through it). Is there a specific area in the field that interests you?

    I've Read The Great Rat-Race Escape!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I just finished reading Unscripted: The Great Rat Race Escape (TGRRE, as everyone seems to be abbreviating). Pro(s): I thought the interspersion of the story with lessons fleshed out from TMF and Unscripted was unique for works of this nature and effective, as the story was a sort of...

    Why you should buy a home as early as possible.

    GOLD! ASSERTION 
    Shack, @MitchC! [That's pilot-speak for "You scored a direct hit on the target"] I agree in large part with @Guest-5ty5s4 here. Monopoly was alright when the kids were too young to understand rudimentary financial statements, but once they were old enough I introduced Cashflow to them. It's...

    I know ferries have enabled this for decades, but it still astounds me that humans can move themselves by car or rail from one island to another. Whether it's UK-Continent via the 'Chunnel,' or Denmark-Sweden via the bridges and tunnels, or the Seikan Tunnel that connects Honshu-Hokkaido; what...

    This might be one way to deal with this particular problem. TL; DR: The legislature must be reconstructed at nearly all levels of government. Legislative processes are breaking down at every level. Part of this can be traced back to the modern professional bureaucracy movement that in many...

    Hello from Germany and the plan, to get REALLY rich

    INTRO 
    Grüß Gott aus Bayern, buy_the_dip. I have the opposite problem, my German needs to improve. I took over a year of immersive German classes at a local Sprachschule but never really practiced writing. My comprehension is acceptable, speaking is okay (although accented), and writing is atrocious...

    Buying, improving, and selling apps. Thoughts?

    IDEA 
    It's great to think in terms of value that your customers will appreciate. If you can find an app with a subscription base that is no longer being updated; or one that is no longer updating versions for older mobile operating systems (pre- iOS 16 or -Android 12), this might work. The app...
