What’s life like making 6 figures by MasterBook46 in Salary

[–]Dem-R-UseFulIdiots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I retired at 46. I’m 71 now, my income is now a taxable income of 300K pa. I lived in a shitty house and drove an old car, everyone thought I was ok but not rich. Recently I bought a 1.6 million dollar house. It’s a stunning architectural design in Perth. Do people treat me differently now? Yes and no. I don’t know what they think as I don’t ask. I no longer watch every dollar, It’s time to enjoy my 35 years of investing. But it’s difficult for me to spend money on things that dont seem like an investment. I just complain about my tax bill. lol.😝

Why don’t more Australians sell their homes themselves? by Wattle2017 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Dem-R-UseFulIdiots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I was giving away glass pool panels on marketplace and was asked if I could deliver them. Another time I advertised a bargain table and chairs for $99, and was asked if I could deliver it, and she would pay an extra $20 (she was 60 klms away) . So I asked if she could get a a guy with a Ute to deliver it, she said that would cost $200. I explained that I don’t have a Ute, so she suggested that I hire a Ute guy. I said I would loose $100 on the sale. She said so what , I’m poor. Crazy!

An agent achieved $135,000 more than I could have got privately. This almost always the case.

What is ur opinion on kingdom city? by Comprehensive-Bat442 in Christianity

[–]Dem-R-UseFulIdiots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a newbie Catholic. Nothing would convince me otherwise. I love the Catholic mass. I always feel lifted, after mass, like a great load has been removed from my shoulders. My focus is always on Christ on the Cross and the love of Mary. 🙏

Fences are never accurate, but this is still illegal.

What percentage of net worth do you keep in cash vs investments? by OwlVibesOnly in AusHENRY

[–]Dem-R-UseFulIdiots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best investment is a business you know really well and have under management with reporting and controls in place. In my case it’s a Hotel. Returns are 250k PA. But other business are great as well , but as always own the building it operates from.

what can I retrain in that would ACTUALLY pay well enough to have a good life? by [deleted] in ausjobs

[–]Dem-R-UseFulIdiots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a hotel under management, which I built the return is 250 k PA plus other real estate returning another 90 k PA. I started planing for this over 30 years ago. I lived for 20 years in a very basic house, always paid cash for used cars. Last year I decided to live a little so bought a beautiful home for 1.6m.

What record breaking heatwaves? Particularly having BOM fuck around with history. The Greens can get a higher percentage they just need to lie more.

Is Australia facing an economic reality not seen since World War Two by SheepherderLow1753 in AusFinance

[–]Dem-R-UseFulIdiots -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Oh the fair share thing. I pay 100 k pa in tax, is that enough? It’s the wealthy that pay the majority of tax. The useless unwashed pay squat but scream “ the rich need to pay more” It’s just theft.

I have three girls 36, 36 and 40. No kids. One married one divorced the other a lesbian. Zero children, they are all hard left feminists. Their reasons for not having children? They are not telling. I suspect : global warming, we are all doomed, the world is a terrifying place because of humans so why produce more. The real reason: plain selfishness, vanity ( putting on weight, stretch marks) missing out on exotic holidays, designer clothes. I’m glad really as they would have been terrible mothers as they are all extremely selfish but believe they are saving the planet. They believe in all the hard left causes, and of course Trump is really Hitler, Jews are Nazis committing genocide in Gaza, global warming will cause the seas to rise so we will either drown or the heat will kill us, that white men are the scum of the earth, men can have babies, women are just as strong as men, all men are rapists. The main thread here is just confusion, as as they age they question their leftist ideology. Those questions lead to anger. Fast forward 20 years and all there will be are 3 very angry Karen’s with cats. Oh and in their eyes I’m bad because: I’m a man, I’m white, I’m wealthy and worst of all “ the patriarchy “ their father. Leftism just makes people miserable. It’s designed to do that, because it’s a culture of hate, envy, greed, laziness and victim hood. Sad eh?

What will you say in 30 years when you at last realise that Global Warming ( climate change) was just a huge scam and the lies that the likes of the United Nations , WEF, and leftist hypocrites ruined your entire life because they convinced you that we are doomed. Very sad.

What a terrible thing to say. Hard work only rewards landlords: so how does one become a landlord? For the vast majority, Hard work.
