Just to add: mate of mine told me when he needed 2 dental implants he got several quotations here in Hamburg, all near 5k. Eventually he went somewhere else in the middle of nowhere (still Germany) to a random no-name guy his wife knew. This must have been few years ago. Job done for 700eur. I would...

You can trust my recommendations!
Jameda? Not sure...

Ditto dentist, but that need not be so central. General dentist: Hansekrone, in Bahrenfeld, near DESY: https://www.hansekrone-hamburg.de/ I've been going there regularly over several years and I find them extremely professional. They also speak better than enough English. And if you need a Kieforth...

But what I'd love to understand, is why does he do this?
I'd be tempted to say he's just stupid. But I don't think he is, stupid. Evil yes, not stupid.

I would love to understand the psychology driving him. There is a field of study called "Game theory". It is the study of mathematical models of strategic interactions. There are zero-sum games and non-zero-sum games . The psychology driving him is seeing every relation as a zero-sum-game...

Yes!
I would love to understand the psychology driving him. Sometimes I think he just get pleasure by making others suffer.

Shame on me. I instructed the workshops to do all repairs necessary for passing the TUV (my car failed it last week). it really sucks that I use it so little, and yet certain fix costs are simply fix, they do not scale with usage. Next time around, in 2yr time, I will try to have more gut. For the r...

If I stay for a while without a car, perhaps some months or some years, and get one sometime later, what will happen to my years of insurance no-claims? Will they expire and the next insurance become more expensive, or will they still count? https://www.friday.de/magazin/schadenfreiheitsklasse-verf...

Thanks everyone

Thank you Can the buyer on their own, with the contract signed and payment made, do both things at once, deregister the auto from me, and register it on their name? This would be my favourite, it would save me half a day of hassle. Alternative would be that, after contract signed and payment made, w...

I decided to sell my old and crappy car Some questions: When should I deregister the auto if I sell it privat? If BEFORE the sale, the buyer cannot do a probefahrt. Well, they could, with a temporary number plate and insurance, but they probably don't like the hassle of arranging those. Of course if...

Thank you very much for kindly offering sofa or whatever, but no thank you.
Much appreciated though.

My crappy car failed the TUV. Not a surprise actually. But I didn't expect the cost estimate to get it sorted, to be as high as the current 2k eur bill. I drive 3k km/yr and seriously thinking of staying without car. Although for the few trips I do use it, it is really nice to have.... Who else here...

Today I'm happy because I came to work with the road bicycle and plan a little trip to the hills after work.
My 1st day with this "summer" bicycle since the winter months, instead of the all-year MTB or the commuter.
I have a handful of obsessions and cycling is one of them.

Have fun everyone!
I'd love to join but no, I'm far.

I'm scared of Trump.
In fact, I'm ever more scared of Trump than I am of Putin.

Guy at work voted AfD.
He moved to Germany in 1990 when he escaped his native Afghanistan.
What to make of it????????????????
