Re: Dear fandom friends
Yeah, when you put it like that she kind of is the best option, isn't she? I mean, it's not like it matters much since they won't have any actual power, so it would probably be a collection in the end with the actual power in some kind of EU type combined parlament.Our roads are starting to suck too, though I know nothing of your roads.
Yup, if you can make the grant stretch (few can) you can get your higher education 100% state sponsored apart from supplies here (most people work on the side or take up loans, since rent alone (at least in the biggest cities, where most of education is centered) can take up most or all of the grant if you're unlucky).
That is quite a lot of money. Kinda puts it into perspective! And yeah, it sounds likely that we'd have to pay more...
We're mostly just told to take it seriously, although we do "only" get our grant for however long the education is supposed to take, with only a few delays allowed.
Re: Dear fandom friends
yeah probably, and I assume we all want to keep our own Royal families, because we are a bit protective of them, even if we tend to complain a lot about them wasting our moneyOh, ours is based on our individual fortune so as long as you don't have a lot of money (I think it is a couple of hundred thousand NOK in fortune) you get a full student loan. We don't really have a lot of choices, either full live outside of home, full live at home (but you have to pay it all back) and only scholarships) so I guess it is quite different?
We get 90.000 a year over 10 months for a maximum of 7 years and if you are more than two years behind they stop it until you catch up.
Re: Dear fandom friends
I've always been a bit split - I think it's awesome the amount of cultural value and "advertising" effect (so to speak) they have, I think it sucks how much money they use, and in the end I'm mainly just completely uninterested in their personal lives and think the media is too crazy obsessed with them for my tastes.Oh, our is based on income too, though yeah, it's more to do with giving us a small amount if we live at home, and a larger amount if we live on our own.
Our total amount varies a lot (most of my friends have similar backgrounds and get strangely varying amounts, for unknown reasons). I don't actually know if they stop it if you're behind, but I'd assume so.
Re: Dear fandom friends
Yeah, our royal family, especially the prince and his family are doing a lot of good things in the world, including charity and so on. I don't care about what they do, but the fact that our used to be princess, she got married and lost her title, is apparently talking to Angels and opened an Talking To Angels School, is probably annoying me more than it should.Your income or your parents?
We apply for it and we get the same amount no matter what, except those whom don't want the loan part, whom gets less, but that is a personal choice not a choice the state makes for you. The only difference is the amount you have to pay back.
Re: Dear fandom friends
Oh yeah, I remember hearing about that and not being sure what's going on with that.Bit of both. If you live at home, it depends on your parents' income. I'm not entirely sure how it works once you move out (it shouldn't depend on your parents' income anymore, but I think it does a bit? I really ought to know, but the system is confusing). In either case, if your own income is too high your taxes are raised (which also affects the grant, as we pay taxes of those too. I don't know why, they could just make the grants lower and avoid the paperwork, but the entire Danish tax system is nothing if not immensely confusing).
Sounds like a less complicated system, tbh. Our system ends up being more get random amount that no one can explain to you.
I think I need to go to bed now, before I fall asleep on my computer... It's been fun talking to you tonight! And thank you for the kittens, kittens are always wonderful
we should make kittens a part of our viking conquest somehow.Re: Dear fandom friends
You pay tax on money from the state? WTF? That is even worse than the Norwegian tax system! You deserve a medal!
Good night, it is always fun talking to you D_A! (I had actually gone to bed between replies, but I couldn't sleep...). I had to share the Kittens with someone, and well I was already talking to you!
we should have kittens in our Joint Scandinavian Flag!(I love how we managed to go from age of consent to world domination in one comment thread!)
Re: Dear fandom friends
:) I'm always glad to see kittens!
I now have the urge to photoshop kittens onto a flag.(It is kind of awesome!)
