Hi guys,

Planning my return to Switzerland after a few years abroad and trying to figure out how fast I can catch up with the 3a Pillar contributions. Anyone dealt with this yet?

Cheers

Heyooo, what’s your go-to thai restaurant/hawker ?

Share your best pick !

Dear SwissPersonalFinance community,

I'm considering building a native mobile app that does ONE thing: log your recurring stock/ETF DCA investments, track a streak of consistent months, send you a reminder before you miss one. No gamification layer, no accounts to link. Just a simple, no-nonsense way to stay on track.

A few questions for anyone who does stock/ETF DCA:

1. Is staying consistent actually a problem for you, or is that a non-issue once you set up auto-invest? (Knowing not all brokers have that auto-invest feature).
2. Would a mobile-only app (not web) actually change anything for you vs. a spreadsheet or existing tracker?
3. Would you want it simple like this, or does it need at least some portfolio view (P/L, allocation) to be worth opening regularly?
4. Is this a "nice to have" or would you actually pay a small monthly/yearly fee for it?

Currently trying to figure out if this is worth building or if I'm solving a problem that doesn't really exist. Honest takes welcome, including "just use a spreadsheet, lol"

Thanks for your feedback - cheers :)

Hi guys, coming to KL for a month at the end of this week. I’m looking to get an haircut when I arrive. Do you have any recommendation on where to cut my “European man hair” 😂 ?

Cheers and thanks

Hi everyone,

I'm passionate about vintage watches. Do you know any good shop/neighborhoods around Seoul ?

Hi everyone,

I have 4–5 years of experience in Commercial Operations and, more recently, as a Commercial Analyst. I am currently taking a gap year, and during this time I've realized that I would like to transition into a Key Account Manager role when I return to my home country.

My background is strong in data analysis, commercial performance monitoring, and cross-functional collaboration. I also have solid interpersonal skills and speak multiple languages, including fluency (C2-C1 level) in the two main languages used in my country (+english).

For those who have made a similar transition or who work in Key Account Management:

• What skills are most important to develop? I have time this year to work on that.
• Are there any diplomas, certifications, or training programs that would strengthen my profile?
• Which parts of my current experience would be most valuable when applying for KAM positions?
• What experience or competencies do hiring managers typically look for that I may need to develop before making the move?

I'd appreciate any advice or insights from your experience.

Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone,

I'll be 3 full days (+ 1 evening) in beautiful Chongqinq. What would you recommend me doing/focusing on ? I love food, walking around cities and all sport in general!

Is 1 day in Wulong worth the time ?

Thanks :)

Hi everyone,

New to the thread, but some years into investing : )

I understand that for Swiss investors, US-domiciled ETFs can offer an interesting tax advantage, mainly because the 15% US withholding tax can be reclaimed through the DA-1.

That said, is there any tax difference between US-domiciled distributing and accumulating ETFs? Or from a Swiss tax perspective, are they treated essentially the same?

Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughts !

Cheers

Hi there,

Does anyone know if the Daegu Chimek (지맥) festival requires ticket to be bought in advance ?

Or can we just show up there without anything?

Could not find the info anywhere …

Thanks :))
