Box 3 is hét bewijs dat Nederland zijn eigen bevolking steeds verder uitknijpt. Het maakt niet uit of je jaren hebt gewerkt, gespaard of risico hebt genomen, zodra je iets hebt opgebouwd, word je gezien als een melkkoe die nog net iets harder kan worden leeggetrokken. 

De (r)overheid verzint een fictief rendement dat totaal losstaat van de werkelijkheid, en jij mag betalen alsof je rijker wordt terwijl je in werkelijkheid misschien verlies draait.

Dit alles past in een groter plaatje:
we leven in een tijdperk dat ik moderne slavernij noem.
Niet met kettingen, maar met regels, belastingen, druk, controles en een overheid die steeds dieper in je leven grijpt. Je mag werken, bijdragen, gehoorzamen, maar zodra je zelf iets weet op te bouwen, wordt het tegen je gebruikt.

En mensen zijn het zat.
Steeds meer Nederlanders vertrekken naar landen waar ze meer vrijheid, minder belastingdruk en meer zeggenschap ervaren. 

Ja, landen als Polen en Hongarije. En eerlijk? Ik begrijp dat inmiddels heel goed. We doen hier in Nederland graag alsof leiders zoals Orbán gevaarlijke extremisten zijn, maar voor veel gewone mensen is het simpel: ze zien daar wél betaalbaarheid, wél rust, wél ruimte om te leven. En dat zegt iets over hoe ver Nederland is afgedwaald.

Onder het mom van “bescherming” en “vooruitgang” worden burgers in de tang gehouden, terwijl de overheid miljarden laat verdwijnen in inefficiënte instanties, falend beleid en bureaucratie die niets oplevert. En Box 3 is slechts één van de vele voorbeelden.

Nederland staat op de rand van de afgrond, niet door haar inwoners, maar door een overheid die het contact met de realiteit volledig kwijt is. Het is tijd voor transparantie. Het is tijd voor beter bestuur.

En vooral: het is tijd om op te houden met het uitknijpen van een bevolking die al lang genoeg heeft gegeven.

I interact with (prospective) customers through executive meetings, discovery conversations, solution demonstrations, executive presentations and follow-up discussions. My primary role is to gain acceptance from the customer and solve the customer’s challenges.

I'm a father of two boys, and a husband to my amazing wife. When I don't work, I do like to work out, play tennis or spend time in the kitchen, making delicious food. 

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me, LinkedIn is a place to network:)

Founder CISA | Cyber Information Security Agency | Making Cyber Security Real | Ex-Gucci model | Content Creator

Rutger Olde Meule

Hiring security advisors: Globally. Remotely. Differently. (Read carefully) 🌍 💻 🤷‍♂️ 

Yes, I won a court case against one of the biggest cybersecurity companies in the world.
That moment changed everything. It showed me that the industry needs to change, big time.

The truth?
Most cybersecurity companies are broken.
They charge ridiculous prices because they hire layers of overpaid managers, directors, and VPs, and you, as a client, end up paying for that nonsense.

That’s not how I roll.

A year ago, I started CISA, a cybersecurity agency with a simple mission:
👉 No bullshit.
👉 No politics.
👉 No ego.
Just results and freedom.

We’re building a global movement of ethical hackers, security advisors, and digital warriors who care about impact, not titles.

At CISA:
I’m not your boss, you’re my boss.
You tell me what you need to make your career a success.
You decide where you want to grow, what you want to learn, and how you want to position yourself in this market.

I’ll help you get there.
I’ll show you how to build your personal brand, write powerful content, and grow your reputation in the cybersecurity world.

And here’s something most companies don’t do:
👉 I’m opening the doors for new talent to enter cybersecurity.
No degree? No problem.
No corporate experience? Don’t care.
If you have the mindset, the drive, and the skills, you belong here.

At CISA we don’t have time for endless meetings.
You don’t need permission for a holiday.
Work where you want, when you want, as long as your client is king.

CISA is not a company.
It’s a movement.
A community of people who believe the future of cybersecurity should be built on trust, freedom, and skill, not bureaucracy.

So here’s my challenge to you:
Drop a comment.
Tell me why I should want to work with you.
Sell yourself. Tell me your story.

Let’s change this industry, together.

Damir Z.

People love pointing fingers at Brexit: “Look, the UK didn’t benefit.” Really? Or maybe the UK is just still untangling the mess the EU created for them. That’s not Brexit’s fault, it’s the EU’s decades of terrible decisions.

Meanwhile, here in the Netherlands, people cheer that we “made the smart choice” by staying in and keeping the euro. Are you serious? Our currency used to be strong. Our standard of living used to make sense. Life today? Two to three times more expensive. Fear and control, that’s what the EU sold us.

We have some of the world’s best companies, ASML, our agricultural and water expertise, and yet we are trapped in a system that forces us to operate on the EU’s terms. Imagine selling our services in our own currency again. 

Imagine making decisions for OUR country, not Brussels.

Refugee crises, climate obsession, forced military spending, all dictated by the EU. And yet, people still vote to stay. Wake up. You’re voting to give away your own freedom.

The Netherlands can thrive again. We have the knowledge, the skills, and the economy. What we don’t have is the courage to say NO.
