Something that is very easy to forget is that stock value is only very loosely tied to actual company value. Stock value is based on what people are prepared to pay for the stock, not what the company is worth.

Which IMO is a real problem in Tech companies If I look at more traditional industries, A coca-cola stock gives me ~ 0.50 US$ per quarter, so with an expected yield of 3% I am ready to buy a stock at US$ 66. and the current market value is US$ 68, if I do the same exercise for Airbus with 2 EUR of regular divident and 2 EUR of exceptional dividend and that I expect a 3% yield, I would pay 133 EUR for an airbus stock, for a market value of 166. A worse investment than Coca-cola, but still a decent one especially considering the raise of the military companies.

And then there is tech company giving no dividend and using stock buyback (How is that even legal) to keep the company value artificially high.

Main stuff to know IMO.

• Linux distribution came with app store long before it was cool, for 99% of the case should just use-them, no need to worry (at first) about how to install an app which doesn’t come from an official repository

• While you can choose among many Desktop environment, just take the one coming with the distro you choose and get used to it.

• Terminal is a pretty neat tool once you know-it, but so is a Torque-wrench for your car. You do not have to know how to use-it to use a PC.

Serious answer : I am not living there, have no idea how to compare, nor whether the court system works as a safeguard.

However, be clear with potential lovers (if any) that you’re not searching to get engaged yet. So people have clean expectation. Moreover, think about your mental well-being first and don’t destroy your health by over working.
