The reunion thread

Oh ok, they're a lot more friendly about that your end then. I think atm here there's a lot of back-and-forthing about the benefit cap.
Taxes here are just so high to begin with, I'm pretty sure you're better off in the end!
 
Probably, though I don't tend to pay too much attention to the minutae here, it gets dealt with employer end.
 
It's mostly the same here, but I can still calculate the ratio of what my employer pays versus what I get at the end of the day. :ouin:
 
There's a high controversy here because most of the famous people go to Andorra and the main explanation they give is that they feel they're throwing money to the toilet when they pay taxes. Does that happen in France too?

You're stopping too early. The true ratio is what your company pays versus what another company receives with you using that pay, e.g. a full cycle of the money. Employer contributions -> Worker contributions -> Income tax -> VAT -> Corporate tax. Here you go. :mrgreen:

That's what a lot of people say here as well but I don't know if that's a reality.
 
Isn't it in the last one -at least 5 years ago- that we met that junkie girl who wouldn't stop speaking nonsense and wanted to knock me down?

That's cool that y'all have met up. It's still awesome that I met up with Hoodcom and intend to next year as well. As well as having his leftovers! :)


I've got a way to go yet but one thing that has been happening is that I've been losing weight because of the location of my workplace so I've been doing a lot of walking. Not so much hiking, but walking for more than 2 miles a weekday nonetheless. Since March I've gone from weighing over 70kg (which if you're under 150cm tall that's bad news), down to 64kg at the moment so I'm happy to have lost that so far.

That's awesome, I've been working on losing weight myself. Also got a treadmill for my parents, which I use for myself too.

Hopefully I can meet you guys too the next time I travel to the US. 8)
