UK, Ireland / Getting a UK state pension in Poland [37]

Have you lived and worked in the UK for at least three years? You could get a UK state pension for a very reasonable amount even though you live in Poland.

You need 35 years of payments to get the full amount. That amount is £221.20 / 1,111zl per week, so 57.772zl per year. To get that you can pay only Class 2 voluntary contributions and those £179 / 895zl per year. Yes, those numbers are correct. For paying thirty-five times 895zl, you get 1,111zl per week for life from your 67th birthday. So it takes 28 weeks to get back what you paid in, after that you're in the money. Live to 80 and you get back 751,036zl for the 31,325zl you paid in!

Not much of a nest egg if one bad day in the market wipes you completely out.

Would need to be a really bad day on the market to wipe this out with the way it's spread.

Tomorrow I will be buying NTRA @ $115.25.

Jim the self-confessed rapist and nun-puncher is really betting against the market with that tip!

Tomorrow when the market opens, I will buy some SOLV.
...
It closed Friday @ $60.59.

How does mystic Jim the self-confessed rapist and nun-puncher do it?! All you have to do to make money is the opposite of what he says! $60.59 when he tipped it, now at $57.71. If you'd shorted 500 shares at $60.59, you'd have made a little over $1,500, which is nearly a quarter of the amount it'll cost Jim to fix his roof. Hoot !

claimed he was only eating rice and beans 2 weeks ago

The last time Jim the self-confessed rapist and nun-puncher had enough money for rice and beans was when Marge had her big win on the slot machine last summer. That $100 would have had them eating like kings (by their standard
S) for two entire weeks if Jim hadn't been banged up a few days later. Although I suppose that was a double win for Marge.

It isn't gambling if you don't actually buy any stocks. For example the self-confessed rapist and nun-puncher has so much fin boasting about the winnings that he didn't make, because he has no money to invest, as shown by the value of his shack continuing to fall while the values of his neighbours properties record double-digit grown, because they can afford to maintain their properties and he can't.

It would cost more to file paperwork than PLN1000, but thanks for the idea.

Admin: I just checked with a former co-worker who used to get 1.5% donations for her kid. Apparently there are organisations that specialise in assisting with this kind of thing. Essentially you operate under their paperwork umbrella and they take a cut of what you receive. How much of a cut I do not know. Thanks for the info.

I personally wouldn't be OK with donating any money in any way to this forum.

Your choice. I'd be fine with kicking in PLN 1,000 to a public welfare organisation each year. Just need admin to file the paperwork. It would cost more to file paperwork than PLN1000, but thanks for the idea.

That's where a public welfare organisation comes in: you donate 1.5% of the income tax you paid in Poland. More specifically, the government takes 1.5% of the income tax you paid and sends it to the organisation you nominate on your tax return.

it's just Lazarus' suggestion.

A suggestion that the admin can follow and will get him at least one ninth of the way to his goal (and that's in the unlikely event that I'm the only person who throws in their 1.5%).

our admin/owner than having to rely every month on our chaotic band of misfits

He doesn't. He just sets up as a Polish public welfare organisation and gets annual donations Q1 of each year. The PF members in Warsaw alone would cover half of his annual target.

Real Estate / Anyone converted a shed/garage into a home and can shed some light if this is possible? [4]

Let me get this straight: you want to fund the cost of a house being built (in effect the cost of converting a shed will be pretty much the same as just building a pre-fab kit house) but you will have zero ownership of that house, correct? It won't take long before your Polish family decide that there's no point a house sitting empty for 10 months of the year when cousin Janusz and his wife and three kids are all squeezed into a 40 meter apartment.

I'll donate later.

Would you be OK with donating 1.5% of the income tax you pay in Poland?

I reckon that all admin needs to do is set up a Polish public welfare organisation and run PF through that. Could easily argue that the site exists to discuss Poland and Poland-related topics in English and thus is of benefit to Polish public welfare. Then the members in Poland can all donate 1.5% of the income tax they pay. That would easily cover the PLN 9k admin has set as the goal.

Question: does the sale cover only the rights to the websites going or does it also include indemnification against claims that may be raised in the future about existing or deleted past posts?

It is natural that any owner of any forum has an access to such data.

It's natural that they'd have such data that's collected after the sale, but transfers of data of EU persons would raise GDPR questions.

Eventually, it always comes back to eating.

Interesting to see that even prisons in Florida know how good pierogi are:
Popular pierogi are healthful treats
...
Promoters say the little dumpling is making new friends among vegetarians, Iron Man triathletes and even prison inmates as a healthful and convenient food.

This is certain to be good news for anybody facing a long stretch in a Florida jail.

Off-Topic / Moderators on PF are breaking the law: not only they can reported for it, but fines apply [96]

And where were you?

You mean Jim the rapist couldn't make bail for five months? And that's why he didn't post here even once in that time? And didn't make any other post anywhere else on the internet in that time. He may well be facing a lot longer than five months, but we really should not comment on ongoing legal matters.
Have you noticed how he keeps claiming that 18 months is a suitable sentence for raping a child? Could that be because he's trying to convince himself that photographing naked children should draw a sentence no longer than a few months? And he's already served a few months.

Vee are asking ze questions!

In some cases the questions might include ones such as "Did you really think you'd get away with making child sexual abuse images by putting camera in those bathrooms?" and "Did your housemate, the registered sex offender and paedophile, help you decide how to distribute child sexual abuse images?".

You are so paranoid it's unbelievable!

Jim the rapist isn't paranoid, people actually are out to get him! They're called public prosecutors. They didn't get him for the rapes he committed in the 1970s, but they'll get him for his latest crimes. His disappearances without warning from here are caused by him being locked up awaiting trial.

they should have a standardised contract for workers and an HR Dept to enforce best practice.

They certainly don't. Just have a look at this article: wyborcza.biz/biznes/7,159911,30159220,praca-w-warsie-jak-w-zabce-byly-pracownik-ujawnia-jest-gorzej.html

I like the way that the dining cars are rented out (by the state) to one-person businesses.

Not a fan of that myself, results in lots of abuse of staff and PKP just shrugging its corporate shoulders at such stories when they're printed in the papers.

My God, you really are a complete fantasist!

You have to hope that he's just a fantasist: some of the things he talks about having done (e.g. raping teenagers after plying them with illegal narcotics and/or hard liquor, assault occasioning grievous bodily harm on nuns, "treating" pre-pubescent girls in the developing world, etc.) are so vile you really have to hope they are just his fantasies. But the fact he chooses to live with a registered paedophile very much suggests they aren't all fantasies.

Radovan Karadzic is fairly well known.
Ratko Mladic is too.
And of course Slobodan Milosevic.
I suppose there's Ċ½eljko Raznatovic too, but he was too much of a coward to use his real name.

That said, you'd be right if you said that Djokovic is the Serb most famous for sporting reasons.

this is you and Deepak all over, accusing others of doing exactly what you do

Once you know that, you can easily see what Jim the rapist has been up to. For example, he thinks that 18 months is a suitable sentence for raping a child. Why would he think that? Well, he himself served 18 months just after a certain 4-year-old child was interviewed about his actions. Remember his post?

Bam ! Straight to jail Daddy goes just on that one lie.

What he forgets is that his publicly available record shows he wasn't charged with or convicted of raping a child. Clearly he thinks he was punished for what he did and not what he was convicted of.

Off-Topic / thinking of writting a book about myself [219]

How would you know what IP someone has?

Same way that he 'knew' those teenagers he filled with hard liquor consented to sex with him: he knew no such thing but instead took advantage of the fact they couldn't fight him off and raped them. And then tried to boast about his actions here.

And the same way that he 'knows' a picture he keeps posting here is me: he doesn't and so instead keeps posting a photo of a retired British diplomat and claiming that that gentleman is a convicted rapist. I fear that isn't going to end well for Jim the rapist once said gentleman receives screenshots. You probably remember his fire-breathing wife, she's retired from practice now but I'm fairly sure she's still a member of the bar.

Yes I suppose coming from London and not some Northern shythole was a privilege.

Not meeting Jim the rapist in person is a privilege that many women wish they'd had, especially the ones he raped. Or did you miss Jim the rapist trying to make himself seem macho by claiming to be a serial rapist?

Even more amusing when he posts the photo of a retired senior British diplomat and claims that person has served 18 month in prison for raping a child. What could possibly go wrong? Especially when such error is pointed out by persists.

nothing he posts is true

Jim the rapist posts very little that is true. But his fantasies make crystal clear which a sick pervert he truly is, for example his fantasies about raping teenage girls. And they show what a vile coward he is, for example his fantasies about punching nuns. And his language and attitudes entirely support the conclusions one can draw from his fantasies, for example any female of any age who dresses in a manner he finds sexy is

putting the bait out there

But of course they're just

those tramps that say no but really mean yes

The only other explanation is that he is a rapist.

But Jim the rapist could actually be lying about committing those particular rapes and still be Jim the rapist if there are other rapes he actually did commit. His first wife certainly claimed he raped her, and his four-year-old daughter said he touched her "in the wrong place" (of course Jimmy claims that the DA knew the kid was lying) but he was only actually convicted of domestic abuse and child abuse.

instead of the story boosting his manliness as he hoped he was unsurprisingly faced with opprobrium.

Much like the time he tried to be macho by boasting about punching nuns.
