Dear Mustachians,

I will use this post in order to show you my personnal situation and my plans in order to increase your saving rate.

DISCLAIMER : As I am a Swiss guy who worked in english during 4-5 years in Geneva, I was (sadly) able to write more or less correctly. Since I am teacher, I do not use english as much as before. I therefore apologize for bad english :slight_smile:

Optimal insurance deductible (franchise in french) is either 300 or 2500 !

And website to choose for your situation : https://franchises.frc.ch/

  • Car
    If you need a car, buy one with less than 120gCo2/km. With this, for example in Vaud, we get a 75% discount on the car tax. Personally, I have a Suzuki SX4-Cross which is a pretty good price/quality family 4x4 SUV (a real 4x4) and I pay around CHF 120 of tax per year.

    VIAC thanks to this website !

    Trying to cancel a Life insurance (grrrr):sweat:

  • TV and Music
    Zattoo free account : 30h of TV per month is perfect for me, I never reach them
    Netflix : Open an account with a VPN based in Turkey ! Price is ridiculously lower than Swiss based account. Do not worry, when you use your account in CH, you get the Swiss content.

Nah. I put a smiley for a reason. :slight_smile:

The qoqa site on the other hand…that’s imho bad. Or maybe it’s some kind of “1st world superoffers”… It reminds me the “Aktionen” you see on Zurich’s tram for Hugo Peters…
You mention the Sunrise offer on qoqa. That’s one of the few good offer I’ve seen on their site lately.

I agree, Qoqa is not the same as before…
