    Kickstarting experience/expertise

    Hi, so i have a (patented) product that after some iteration feels ready to hit the market. However, being it fairly innovative for a not much innovation-friendly sector could turn into a disaster if someone without experience (like me) attempts it. I have been considering crowdfunding, but i...

    Closing (or selling) nominee structured company

    How to proceed in this case, when the company is, on paper, not even yours? I suppose a notarized signed document by the nominee acknowledging the end of the business relationship might be enough? Or is it even simpler than that and an email might do?

    Skrill personal account instead of Revolut/Wise?

    How does Skrill personal compare to Revolut/Wise/Bunq/N26 and all the rest of the gang? I see it's free and they write they offer free money transfer, as well as a free card. I assume this one is an EMI and as such no ECB deposit protection, right? Is Paysafe group trustworthy so that even with...

    How to store money in the years of negative interests?

    We live in a paradox these days: it's more convenient to keep cash under the mattress than in a bank. So, either you are a private or you are a corporation with a decent amount of liquidity, where to store such money so that they are safe (banks and EMIs seem to explode every second day lately)...

    Electronic shopping and keeping under the radar

    Gov's current trend is to limit as much as possible, and possibly soon prevent anonymous purchases. Anonymous cards are now hard to find, expensive and very limited. So let's say Bob wants to avoid that tax authority of country(es) X (and Y) become aware of his shopping. Meaning - what hes...
