Otto Juote asked whether it was true that the abolition of inheritance tax failed in the government because the National Coalition Party and the Swedish People's Party did not agree to the conditions set by the Finns Party regarding cuts to development aid and tightening immigration policies. #perintövero #politiikka #Suomi (translated)

Antti Sallinen said he returned from Stockholm in the morning and had originally taken the day off before a long shift the next day. However, he mentioned that he went to work the night shift to cover an unexpected absence.

Lucia-pulla mentioned having visited the Puhos shopping center a couple of years earlier to check out the place, not for shopping or errands. She described the building as rundown, untidy, and even abandoned-looking, although according to her, there were businesses and life there. The visit had felt depressing and unpleasant to her. She also wrote about feeling out of place and how the women dressed in cloaks reminded her of a dystopia. #Suomi #Puhos #matkustus (translated)

Jari Parantainen wrote that John Cleese had announced that he couldn't wait to be arrested. He described the British police as being faced with a difficult decision and asked whether he could speak unpleasant truths about Islam according to his characterization. #JohnCleese #Brittipolitiikka #Islam (translated)

Mikko Vuorenpää wrote that the content of Timo R. Steward's column demonstrated, in his opinion, that the title was accurate. Vuorenpää described Steward as having been dismissed from the Finnish Institute of International Affairs. https://t.co/AuGi2gxNWq #Ulkopolitiikka #Suomi #Kolumnit (translated)

Jouko S. criticized Sofia Virta after she reported asking at the police station how domestic violence was visible in the area. Virta had stated that the police responded it was not visible. Jouko S. sarcastically asked whether the police should have lied for Virta to be satisfied with the answer. He interpreted Virta's reasoning to mean that the existence of domestic violence would be better than its absence, and he criticized the Greens. #lähisuhdeväkivalta #poliisi #yhteiskunta (translated)

Mats Uotila viewed that Defense Minister Häkkänen had not acted wrongly by strengthening Finland's defense and stated that it was the minister's most important task. He criticized the SDP, which he claimed organized a worthless spectacle in Parliament this week and was willing to undermine crucial security cooperation in pursuit of gaining popularity points. Uotila reminded that the SDP had previously supported the acquisition of David's sling during the previous government term. He mentioned that the party had voted against Häkkänen's trust in Parliament due to his visit to Israel. According to Uotila, the purpose of the trip was to ensure spare parts and maintenance for the air defense system ordered by the SDP from Israel. Uotila wrote that not all necessary defense materials could be obtained from Europe and believed that Finland's security should be prioritized. In his view, the SDP did not seem willing to do so. #SuomenPuolustus #turvallisuus #politiikka (translated)

Kimmo Matikainen wrote that in political discussion, the demand that education should not be cut should be abandoned, in his opinion. He argued that Finland is accepting students with their families from poor developing countries to ensure the funding of educational institutions, even though, according to him, the decrease in the number of young people would support the closing of schools. #koulutus #politiikka #kehitysmahot (translated)

Henri Vanhanen wrote that Ukraine had announced the use of its own FP-7 ballistic missile in battle for the first time. According to him, President Volodymyr Zelensky had reported on the first combat use and stated that the next phase would be production. Vanhanen noted that the missile manufacturer, Fire Point, claimed the FP-7 had a range of about 200 kilometers, a warhead weight of 150 kilograms, and a speed of up to 1,500 meters per second. He stated that the missile could target command posts, air defense systems, air bases, and ammunition depots, for example. Vanhanen pointed out that there had been no information on the first launch about what it struck or whether the missile hit its target. He wrote that the military significance of the system would depend on whether the missiles could be produced sufficiently, affordably, and accurately. According to him, approximately seven months had passed since the first known test launch. Vanhanen mentioned that Fire Point was also developing the FP-9 missile, which aimed for a range of over 800 kilometers and a warhead of up to 800 kilograms. He emphasized that the FP-9 was not yet an operational weapon. According to Vanhanen, the significance of the FP-7 would ultimately depend on whether it could be put into production. https://t.co/MWd1JlMbu8 #Ukraina #ohjukset #sota (translated)

Reima Neva wrote that 39 members of the SDP parliamentary group had voted for the minister's loss of confidence. According to Neva, Häkkänen said that the vote required a thorough explanation and that the SDP's possible desire to change Finland's defense policies was a serious issue. https://t.co/Z21yregyYG #Suomi #politiikka #eduskunta (translated)

Is Representative Tuppurainen listening? I have some questions. When Representative Anna Kontula tried to break into Gaza, did any other leftist try to break into Israel as a counter? And if no one tried, is Finland's position in the UN Security Council in danger? #Suomi #YK #Politiikka (translated)

In every Ukrainian village and town, there is a striking board with the names of those who fell in Russia's invasion war, the men from that locality. The ages of the fallen vary greatly, with the youngest only 18-19 years old. Some were boys, brothers, spouses, fathers, and grandfathers. Even more striking. https://t.co/xexdQKuF9v #Ukraina #Sota #Muistaminen #UA #RU (translated)

Well, it's no wonder that the "anchor child" gets stressed. I had to get to the beachfront mansion in Manse, and they put me in a barrack in Isokyrö instead. Deep gratitude towards Finland manifests in strange ways. We need more of these upcoming fixers for the sustainability deficit, for example, 40,000 per year; otherwise, Finland won't cope. https://t.co/eVfhdnLeKg #Suomi #kestävyys #rantakartano (translated)

Since I opened my verbal archive, it seems appropriate to address the comments that this matter has gathered and Taija's response, which has also been linked to my original post. Firstly, the headline of the local news story is accurate. A proposed increase of that sum has been presented (note that the salary sum is not the same as salary). The proposal is Taija's own, as she states in her response. However, Taija's response notes that it also includes retroactively paid salaries. This is true as well, since the matter is ongoing and there may be retroactive salary payments. However, this detail does not make the headline incorrect in any way, but the reader might conclude from this that she is seeking a 68% increase in her salary, which is not true. The fact remains: that fair €54k is, in Taija's opinion, her money, meaning the headline is entirely correct in using the term "proposed for herself." In my post, I made a comparison: Keusote's financial difficulties and Taija's salary increase demands. The comparison is relevant. Keusote's financial difficulties have been known for a long time, even before Taija started her position in October 2024. For some reason, this matter has stirred strong feelings on both sides. Many have jumped to (wrong) conclusions too quickly, and many have passionately defended Taija. I rarely receive private messages about any post, but I received several regarding this post. They have shed light on the background of the issue, and I will not address them here in any way because they are private messages. However, I would like to collectively ask several of you, that when you have passionately been cutting public administration and state-owned companies' costs and criticized the significantly higher salaries of the public sector compared to the private sector, why does the issue become completely different when it involves a person familiar to us all? Were the salaries of the leaders and heads of the welfare areas not excessive now that it comes to Taija? #palkka #julkishallinto #hyvinvointi (translated)

Mitä helvettiä? Tämä on aikamoinen paljastus millainen moraali sinulla on @anttikaikkonen jos pitää paikkaansa ? Eikö sijaislapset ole olleet yhteinen päätös? Se on elinikäinen vastuu eikä siitä irtauduta ja heitetään kuin vanha rukkanen nurkkaa vaikka muuten tiet erkanevat. Nyt meni maku tähän kaveriin lopullisesti😑. https://t.co/YNfCTbO9LT #moraali #sijaislapset #vastuu

Sosiaaliturva ei enää riittänyt, niin perhe teki "radikaalin" ratkaisun ja muutti työn perässä toiselle paikkakunnalle. Ei työn perässä muuttaminen ole radikaalia, vaan ihan tavallista. Itse muutin aikoinaan työn ja opiskelun perässä toiselle mantereelle. https://t.co/avM5PdSlts https://t.co/PucOhcc5Pa #työ #muutto #perhe

Aloitan tänään salkunhoitajana Aristoi Capital Managementissä. Hoidan yhdessä salkunhoitaja Antti Bergholmin kanssa uutta Aristoi Arvonkasvattajat -rahastoa. Arvonkasvattajat sijoittaa yhtiöihin, jotka ovat pääoman allokaation mestareita. Toisin sanoen rahasto sijoittaa yhtiöihin, joilla on meidän todentama taito sijoittaa kassavirtansa kannattavasti takaisin oman liiketoiminnan kasvattamiseen tai yritysostoihin. Sijoitusfilosofia pohjautuu arvosijoittamiseen "ostamme 50 sentillä yhden euron" -hengessä. Matka sijoittamisen parissa tähän pisteeseen on ollut jälkikäteen katsoen luonteva. Aloitin sijoittamisen sattuman kautta 2009. Äitini oli lainannut kirjastosta pörssiaiheisia kirjoja. Sain juuri omat kirjani luettua ja katselin pöydällä lojuvia pörssikirjoja. Mitähän noista voisi oppia, mietin. Samalla tilille oli kertynyt hieman säästöjä töistä sekä ennakkoperintöä. Korot olivat nollassa, inflaatio mietitytti ja tuottoa oli saatava. Pian säästöjen töihin laittamisesta tulikin intohimoinen vapaa-ajan harrastus ja syventyvä opinahjo. Historia on toinen harrastukseni. Yliopistossa opiskelin taloushistoriaa, mikä on tuonut valtavasti lisäperspektiiviä sijoittamiseen ja nykypäivän ilmiöihin. Historia on hieno harrastus, mutta työkseni en sitä kuitenkaan aikonut tehdä. Miten sitten päästä sijoitusalalle töihin? Vaikka takana on tuhansien tuntien vapaa-ajalla tehtyä opiskelua, paperilla se ei riittänyt. Onneksi törmäsin @Inderes:iin Hain Inderesille alunperin analyytikoksi keväällä 2016, koska muita paikkoja ei ollut tarjolla. En sillä kertaa saanut paikkaa, mutta tj @mikaelrautanen sanoi että pysytään yhteydessä. Sitten jo Nordea-ajoilta kaverini @PetriGostowski (nyt pääanalyytikkona Inderesillä) pääsi analyytikoksi. Pian hän vinkkasi, että nyt Inderesillä haetaan jonkinlaista somettajaa. Tässä oli tilaisuuteni: hain paikkaa, ja sain sen. Olen käynyt lukuisilla videoilla läpi Inderesin yhteisörakentamisen vaiheita, joten en kertaa niitä tässä. Olen kiitollinen melkein 10 vuodesta Inderesillä: rakensimme hienon sijoittajayhteisön. Minulle annettiin vapaat kädet tehdä sisältöä, mistä nautin suuresti ja se toimi yleisöllekin. Työ yhteisönrakentajana oli melkein 100 %:sti myös intohimoinen harrastus. Viime vuosina tiedostin, että sijoittamisesta puhumisen ja vapaa-ajalla sijoittamisen lisäksi olisi hienoa tehdä sitä työkseen. Sijoittaminen kahmaisi leijonanosan vapaa-ajasta, mutta etenkin perheellisenä vapaa-ajan prioriteetit muuttuvat. 2023 keväällä Berkshire Hathawayn yhtiökokouksessa törmäsin Aristoin tiimiin ja perheemme ystävystyivät Aristoin sijoitusanalyytikon Nikolaos Vlassiksen kanssa. Kävimme usein syömässä ja keskustelemassa intohimoisesti osakkeista ja liiketoiminnoista. Tänä vuonna nousi esille ajatus uudesta rahastosta ja ajatus minusta Antin kanssa salkunhoitajana siihen. Pitkän harkinnan jälkeen rahasto eteni ja minä ilmoitin olevani käytettävissä salkunhoitajan työhön. 2009 alkaneella sijoitustaipaleellani alkaa nyt uusi jakso. #sijoittaminen #rahastot #arvosijoittaminen
