I didn't even know that report was actually initiated by the Bundesrechnungshof.. That's hilarious by itself.

Earthquake in Italy only a few days after all this fuss about stockpiling. Precautionary measures my rear end, they know something we don't. Probably related to fracking! Grenzen sofort dicht gegen ausländische Erdbeben!

Finanzgoons help! My local Postbank agent is pushing hard to sell me the PB Förder-Rente because "just think of all the savings you get through Riester" and such. But I'm only a dumb engineer and don't know poo poo about finances and all their illegible Randbedingungen. I know from some pages back that some here are way more into this topic, so any opinions on that?

Did he/she cold-call you? Just tell them you aren't interested. Postbank is particularly aggressive about trying to sell you extra poo poo. Otherwise I've been with them for like two years now and haven't ever had a problem, and once you make it clear to them that you don't want to be cold-called, they'll usually stop.

You could also make fart noises when you answer the phone, or you know, actually rip one loud enough.

Yes, I was cold-called and because I am dumb and naive, I went to an appointment and obvs the dude is now pushing even more. I tried checking the numbers with simple math. His offer is basically "pay 137€ monthly from now until Rente, then get lebenslang 342€ monthly" (provided all those weird market Zins percentages don't act funny in the meantime). So I multiply the 137€ with 'months until Rente' and get about 51k that I will pay in total. Lebenserwartung is about 77 years (says Wikipedia), so I probably get that extra Rente for 12 years, which is about 49k. So the only way to really profit from this is to live as long as possible, like at least another 10 years, to properly cash out. Which is a dumb plan because it also assumes that the market will be super stable for the next 30 years.

Lol, they're making GBS threads you big time. You didn't even calculate interest. Slap 1.5 or 2 % on top and look what you have after 30 years.

Drone posted:Just loving say "no". Ain't that hard. Sometimes those guys can be incredibly obnoxious. I had a case where I was dumb enough to agree to let my energy costs be compared and it ended with me first changing my gas supplier, then my power supplier. Sure, I saved some money, but a year later the same guys started pestering me again and just wouldn't take no for an answer. The guys even phoned me on Saturdays and late in the evening! First I just said no, then I started screaming at them. They still loving called me, just with different people at the phone every time! Then I just ignored them for a while, but they continued calling me, trying to get me to change energy suppliers again. It got so bad I started to just sigh and put the phone down when I noticed it was them again. For a while, I considered buying a new phone just because my old one can't display the numbers of callers, so I couldn't evade their calls most of the time. The only solution which stopped them for good was one I wasn't proud of: I started claiming I had no time right now, but maybe a couple days later? Then I would make a telephone appointment on a day where I was absolutely sure I wouldn't be at home. After the third try they got the message and the telephone terrorism stopped.

It's been my experience that Germans are terrified of receiving mail, like they have some kind of terrible magic enchantment on them. Or just block the number, probably the easier and more passive-aggressive thing to do.

Good news: Ye probably gonna live much longer than 77, since that's just the number extrapolated from past life expectancy increase. Biotech is off the hook right now, artificial organs and cancer treatments everywhere, death uncertain. If Renteneintrittsalter doesn't catch up with you, you have a tiny chance to make some money here. Still, probably better to invest in beanni babies or rare Ü-Eier Figuren.
