Let’s speculate! When will the next stimulus come? I am ready to get more “stimulated.” [image]

[image] afterspivak: Meanwhile that ridiculous LY has not even approved the 2026 budget yet! They constantly claim there is no money for defence, libraries, and other basic public needs. But somehow there is money for this—a complete joke. To be honest, I’m not particularly worried about whet…

[image] comfy123: To be honest, I’m not particularly worried about whether Taiwan spends more on defence, libraries, or something else… I’m living in Australia now, so it’s not really my concern I still strongly believe that they should exclude TW nationals and APRC holders who aren’t tax res…

[image] qwert_zuiop: I still strongly believe that they should exclude TW nationals and APRC holders who aren’t tax residents of Taiwan (i.e. not staying in TW and not paying taxes) and rather include ARC holders who do pay taxes… Or just increase the tax exemptions / special deductions etc… …

[image] comfy123: I’m in Australia U workin to get another passport?

[image] ppp: U workin to get another passport? No, I think it’s time to settle down now. I’ve always had my Australian passport. Taiwan was a great chapter of my life, but Australia is home and where I’ll be staying long term, therefore no need to get another passport.

[image] comfy123: I’ll be staying long term, therefore no need to get another passport So how many passports did u end up with? And is having 2 passports enough??? Or does a person need to get more for more freedom?

[image] comfy123: I don’t live in Taiwan, I don’t pay tax in Taiwan, and I’m still eligible for the NT$10,000. From my perspective, that’s excellent policy. Taiwan should give more. It has 600billion usd. Just give 1 billion usd per yr divide it among everyone

[image] afterspivak: a complete joke I’m so glad I’m not paying taxes in Taiwan anymore. Much better to have a job where there’s no tax at all.

Look I don’t mind paying taxes for useful public services. But when those services are cut, and instead the money is used to support freeloaders living abroad, I am less impressed. Guy

[image] ppp: So how many passports did u end up with? And is having 2 passports enough??? Or does a person need to get more for more freedom? Four in total. An Australian passport, a New Zealand passport, a Taiwanese passport, and a European one. At this point I don’t think I need any more…

When will be the next 10,000NTD stimulus?
