NEWS: Norway plans to eliminate its main subsidy for electric vehicles over the next two years, the government said today adding thousands of dollars to the cost of new cars like Tesla's Model Y, the country's top-selling automobile.
"We have had a goal that all new passenger cars should be electric by 2025, and ... we can say that the goal has been achieved," Finance Minister Jens Stoltenberg said in a statement. "Therefore, the time is ripe to phase out the benefits."
For years, oil-rich Norway exempted EVs from all taxes applied to combustion-engine vehicles to speed up the transition, a policy that came at a cost of billions of dollars annually in lost revenue for the state.
In 2023, however, it introduced a 25% value-added tax on the portion of an EV's price over 500,000 crowns ($49,508), affecting mostly high-end models such as the BMW iX, Tesla X and Porsche Taycan, while shielding mass-market cars.
But in 2026, Norway plans to lower its EV tax exemption to 300,000 crowns, the government said in its proposal for next year's budget, and begin collecting VAT on all versions of the Model Y and similarly priced mid-market cars like Volkswagen's ID.4.

After spending 10 years thinking about Money & Bitcoin, here's the simplest explanation I can come up with:
Money is a technology to move Value across Space, Time, and Scale.
Value is the utility humans derive from Goods & Services.
Value is highly subjective, and it changes across Time and Space.
Unbeknownst to them, Economists have defined these functions as:
- Store of Value (Time)
- Medium of Exchange (Space)
- Unit of Account (Scale)
Throughout History, no monetary system has managed to satisfy all 3 functions of Money at once. This is where the idea of Backing Money and the necessity of separating Money and Currency come from.
This trade-off can be described as a Money Trilemma: you can optimize for 2, but not all 3.
Gold is great at Time & Scale, but not Space.
Fiat is great at Space & Scale, but not Time.
Until the invention of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is the first form of Money that successfully excels at all 3 functions simultaneously.
It achieves that by perfecting all the properties of Money, with no extra space for improvement:
Bitcoin is:
- Infinitely Divisible
- Instantly Portable
- Forever Durable
- Mathematically Finite (what is mistakenly called Scarcity)
- Perfectly Fungible
Bitcoin is the final Evolution of Money.
The World just hasn’t figured it out yet.

今天總算看完 《別把你的錢留到死 Die With Zero 》 ,
分享今天看完的最後一個段落,概括了整本書的精髓:
1. 計算自己何時會死
2. 得知自己何時該花大於存
3. 何時該積極執行人生時段清單
4. 人生利率只會愈來愈高,早買早享受、記憶股息複利成長
讀完書後,我的 2 個 Immediate Action:
1. 立刻去 livingto100計算我的預期壽命:
▌為什麼要知道自己的預期壽命?
作者在書中提到:
“如果你不知道自己什麼時候會死,你就沒辦法做出決定,那就永遠無法接近最佳化的狀態。”
我原先自認可以活到 80 歲(甚至覺得已高估),
沒想到使用 livingto100計算—這是一個基於工作、運動、睡眠、飲食、家族基因、健康報告,相對精確的壽命計算機)
答案竟然是......, 93歲,遠超我的預期。
這意味著 2 件事:
1. 我要比原先存更多的錢,才能避免老了沒錢花
2. 我的壽命遠超平均壽命,使用年金險對我更有利
就像作者所說的,有更精確的預期壽命,你才能更有計畫的安排財產歸零計畫。
2. 立刻下載 Countdown App:
▌知道自己的預期壽命後,還可以做什麼?
作者在書中提到:
“當我看到我還剩下多少個星期可活,就等於在提醒我,我還有多少個週末可過。看到還有多少年可活,就提醒我,我就只有這麼多個聖誕節可過了。”
把每天當最後一天活太不實際了,但如果有一個比較有參考性的數字,每天提醒我剩餘壽命,我或許會更積極地活個精彩。
我簡單搜尋了App Store,發現一款 App- Countdown (by Find Appiness LLC) 蠻符合我的需求的
這個 App 的優點是,只要付費 NT$ 120 即可讓我終身解鎖 Widgets ,每天手機桌面就會顯示:
1. 剩下幾週就是我的葬禮(3,287週)
2. 我還有幾個週末/幾個年可以過 (單位可以依個人調整 年/月/週/日,超讚)
我根據 1. livingto100 的預期壽命 93,設定一個 Countdown- Funeral 我的葬禮
我設在我的剩餘壽命- 62 年後,也就是 2087/07/19
.
《別把你的錢留到死 Die With Zero 》這本書確實經典,即便看多再多人的讀書心得,對自己的改變,都比不上自己一字一字深刻閱讀過。
接下來會陸陸續續把這本書的 Highlights, 整理到 Heptabase 白板上,跟幾本聊「金錢關係」的書交融概念,再分享我的觀點、行動計劃。
