Bentheim Gw tau Jerman tuh emang meticulous banget, tapi gw nggak sangka bakal se- meticulous itu. Kira-kira bulan Maret gw apply Schengen via Jerman. Kenapa via Jerman? Karena Belanda nggak ada slot heheheee. Rencana perginya bulan April kalau nggak salah waktu itu. Karena suami ada libur tapi cuma pendek banget, dan dia pengen banget pulang ke sana, yaudah lah coba aja. Dapet antrian, mana bayarnya 700ribu pula 😅 lalu pergilah gw submit semua dokumen gw. Gw bukan yang pertama kali mengajukan Schengen, jadi gw udah "tau" harus submit apa aja. Karena sebagai orang yang menikah dengan warga EU, kami berhak untuk tidak menunjukkan buku tabungan (yg penting tabungan pasangan yang EU yg ditampilkan), dll. Dengan ina inu, eh ternyata diminta surat kerja lah, kalau freelancer harus kasih tau bukti kerjaan juga. Gw rasa ribet ya karena nggak formal kerjanya, jadi ya udah gw tulis ibu rumah tangga. Itu juga masih harus bikin surat pernyataan siapa yg membiayai biaya hidup gw kala

I saw so many questions of Indonesians want to know about buying stock in the US market. I never thought about it until I am involved in "taking care" of it as a part of my work.
It's not technically mine lol, it's my boss. But, that way I learned a lot about the US and Canadian markets. What we bought for the first time was Disney. DIS.NYSE. It's on NYSE, which means it is in the US market.
So, my boss is Canadian. I didn't know that he can buy stocks in the US market that easily. What a perk of being a non-Indonesian 😅 Long story short, we got our first stock. Then we buy other stocks.
Funny to see how the banking sector most of the time is so stable.
After a few months, they're having ups and downs. We have them working great but why is it seen red in our portfolio? The culprit is the currency exchange. We lost a lot in currency. We use Sharesight to check on them easily because we have them all from different markets.
It's only from Canadian Dollar to USD (and vice versa). But the loss we usually have on average is 0,5-1% of the total stocks and funds we have. It seems just a little, not even 1% but when we buy stocks we need to calculate the broker fees and everything including the currency exchange. I mean, we invest to gain some, right? Not to lose more 😑
DIS is in the US market. We bought it in the Canadian Dollar. The currency loss is around 6%
Look at the capital gain we got from Pinterest. But also the currency loss we have.
Now let's imagine if we buy US stocks with our IDR money? How much loss we're going to get? 😅 There's no way it can survive lol. Well.. it might survive but it's gonna be a lot more expensive, knowing that how unstable IDR to USD is.
So, if you have a lot of money to invest in the global market, keep in mind that you might also lose some currency along the way. That way, you have to figure out something to minimize the loss.
Have fun! 🙌
