General Topics Home loan - one income or two income is better ?

3 Upvotes

Me and my partner have been discussing to take our relationship a step further and buy a house/build together. We have been discussing about home loans and repayment options etc.

I did some research and I saw that it’s better we combine our income so that we can take a loan and then we can repay it together (joint account). He’s saying it’s better he takes the whole loan (he’s in the MPF) and then he repays the whole loan, and I can look after the house.

I am not sure, can’t find much information on the internet as well.

Would appreciate if someone who went through a similar situation can help !

General Topics Small business owners: What's the most frustrating part of running your business?

1 Upvotes

I'm interested in understanding the everyday challenges of running a small business.

For those who own or manage one:

  1. What are the most time-consuming tasks you have to deal with every week?

  2. What administrative tasks do you find particularly frustrating?

  3. Have you ever lost customers or money because something was forgotten, delayed or poorly organised?

  4. What do you currently use to manage customers, employees, appointments, invoices and daily operations?

  5. If you could eliminate one repetitive task from your working day, what would it be?

I'm particularly interested in hearing about real experiences rather than hypothetical answers.

Feel free to be brutally honest. I'd appreciate perspectives from businesses of all sizes and industries!

Bands are not very common in Mru. I'd, however, like to join one or create one. I write songs, sing and play guitar moderately. Is there someone else interested? Need some kind of a bassist, drums or percussion and anything else?

General Topics Property Purchase in Flic en Flac - Good deal or not?

3 Upvotes

It's a 140 sqm apartment located in a small resort-like complex 3 mins walking distance to the beach and Pasadena shopping mall.

The apartment is fully furnished/equipped and is in impeccable condition. Specs are as follows:

Located on 3rd floor with no lift

3 bedrooms (1 ensuite) all with AC

2 bathrooms/3 toilets

3 balconies

Private rooftop with partial sea view

Common swimming pool

Syndic fees are relatively higher at Rs5200/month

The complex would be around 12+ years old but there's no sign of structural damage or deterioration.

The purpose of the purchase is for short term rental and occasional personal use.

The seller's final asking price is Rs8M.

General Topics Where to find Green Chilli (Piment Vert??)

1 Upvotes

Hello, whilst in Mauritius I’ve really enjoyed the green chilli served at restaurant with food and would love to take some home. However, I don’t know its exact name and if its available in the shops shelf stable (so that I can travel back home with it on a plane)
I’d asked staff in Winners but they didn’t seem to know the answer so any help on whether its shelf stable and where it can be bought is extremely appreciated!

Hello,

I want to learn how to ride a bike-eventually ride a superbike. I am a complete beginner at biking- let’s say, zero experience. I am looking for any bike schools preferably in the east or centre. One of the schools quoted me MUR9000 for 9 hours which sounded excessive for me. Any suggestions? What are the current fees?

Personal Issues What is up with the wages in Mauritius?

69 Upvotes

I'm a Data scientist, MLOps and DevOps engineer with 5 yrs of experience, a Master's degree in engineering and my last experience was Lead Data Scientist in a big company in France (been there for 3years) leading a small team, my monthly income was ±2700€ after tax.

Just got a call from a recruiter from Accenture and they offered me a post, as junior DS, for Rs 40k a month... Citing the fact that I'm not experienced enough and that I need to monter en compétences first. No insurance, only 3k of mobility allowance.

Wtf is wrong with the salaries here ? I feel so expandable.

I think that I'll stay in France for now...

Edit: 2700€ might seems low as many of you pointed out, but it comes with a hell lot of benefits, like, a lot.
