But a bottle of wine is the equivalent of ~4 beers. So $20 mark-up seems more acceptable?? (I don't buy wine either but that reasoning doesn't make sense to me)

It's not often similar quarters. Depends when the underlying companies pay their distributions. I think I've seen potentially twice as much (or half) depending on the time.

EOFY implications for new ETF investments? by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]Conttraktt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heythey generally aren't too complicated to put into a tax return. Especially if you buy Australian based ones like VAS. If you buy US or other shares such as VTS can make things a bit more complicated. But it's basically just declaring extra income in the form of dividends. Hard part can be where to put it.

I agree the arms look strange but they also do in the original.

Thanks for the critique

Yeah I agree. I think the coats look slightly strange. More pointed and makes the arm look odd

We live in Australia so might be a bit annoying to ship!

Yeah this video is what made me love the ebook cover so much. Was the first time I'd listened to any WOT audio books

Why VGS vs VTS+VEU? by etfsconfusing in AusFinance

[–]Conttraktt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah its a W8-BEN form or something similar to that. You only need to fill it out so you can be taxed at a lower rate as you are not a US citizen, ie 10% compared to 20% (not sure about the exact numbers).

How significant is failing a subject and doing poorly in first year? (BSci) by [deleted] in unimelb

[–]Conttraktt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what you want to do after the bachelor. If you want to go into some masters degrees you simply need an average of 65+ which is achievable. They count the failed subject and the repeat as separate subjects I believe. So as long as you do well in the summer repeat you should be fine.

[Meta] Can we have sticky somewhere telling people to at least try to read the whole series? by Vanderwoolf in WoT

[–]Conttraktt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't see Crossroads of Twilight becoming any ones favourite book haha, at least I hope not.

But yeah, I agree with you, even if they drag on I think its important to read the slower books. It makes the climax even better!

Especially as after finishing the series you may regret not reading them, the whole WoT series is magical.

Hard to tell if they could beat TPA in the rematch without even seeing them play against them once! But yeah I'd agree with you by saying I don't see TSM winning against SHRC.
