Poles pay highest taxes

Methodology The claim that Polish taxpayers give about 38% of their income to the government is partially confirmed. OECD data indicates that the tax wedge for a single person earning the average wage in Poland was 35% in 2025. A more comprehensive report by the Warsaw Enterprise Institute (WEI) from July 2025 (based on 2024 data) estimates that the real tax burden for an average Pole, including direct, indirect, and local taxes, is around 43% of gross income. The 38% figure therefore falls between these two indicators, making it plausible depending on the methodology used. However, the assertion that this is a 'record since the transformation' is not unequivocally confirmed by available sources. Although the WEI report indicates an increase in the burden from 37% in 2017 to 43% in 2024, and for individuals earning 167% of the average wage, the burden is the highest since 2006, there is no consistent historical data covering the entire period since 1989 to confirm that the current level is an absolute record for all taxpayers.

Polish Generational Bull Market to 2040s

"This great generational bull market will last somewhere until the mid-2040s, meaning we still have about 20 years of very strong growth in the Polish market. We will catch up to Western countries, we will catch up to France, Germany, Great Britain, and later also the United States in the development of the capital market in particular. "

The Polish stock market faces about 20 years of strong growth, catching up with Western markets in capital development, representing a long-term generational bull market.

Quantum Company Valuation

"And imagine that soon, more or less almost at the same time as this company is spun off from Creotech Creotech Quantum, a quantum competitor in Finland will debut and will also have a dual listing in New York, in the United States, and note, at a valuation of 1.8 billion dollars. Although they have 35 million dollars in revenue. But Creotech Quantum has about 3 million in revenue, and plans to have 100 million zlotys in annual revenue, right? So 100 million zlotys annually, that would already be about 27 million dollars annually, not much less than this Finnish competitor. I wrote about this on Twitter, which is valued at 1.8 billion dollars, so even from such a proportion, this quantum company should be valued at 500, 600 million. "

Kreotech Kwantum, with planned revenues of $27 million, should be valued at $500-600 million, comparing it to a Finnish competitor valued at $1.8 billion with $35 million in revenues.

War and its Impact on Prices

"I think that if the war continues, if these negotiations do not succeed this week, and if the war continues until the end of April and there are some further escalations related to these military actions. We will witness further bombings of critical infrastructure. Both in the Gulf countries, maybe in Israel, in Iran, above all, it is also said that there may be a problem with helium supplies from Qatar. This is one of the largest producers. It affects the production of fiber optics and semiconductors, so Iran knows where to attack strategically. Well, I think that if the war continues, I wouldn't even be surprised by levels of 50 PLN. 50, maybe even towards ATH in some panic, but that's a very, very good performance. This rate is definitely on fire. "

Continued war and escalation of military actions could lead to critical infrastructure bombings, helium supply issues, and price increases.
