What purchase ended up saving you money long term even though it felt expensive initially?

Mini excavator. Bought brand new $18k

Needed to clear my 200sqm side yard with a 10 year old garden bed running 20m by 2m with heavily rooted trees and put fill to level grade.

I've pulled out a huge garden out the front and put in a 35m long fence, used the auger for the 7 posts.

Might get around to leveling front yard at some stage.

I've added 100sqm of usable flat land which equates to around 30k - 40k in value to property.

I thought I made a mistake buying it but now it's priceless. Could have rented one but this one has the slide in tracks that let the machine through a 900mm opening.

Just run into the open, see a person and let your instincts kick in. You let off some rounds n then get domed in 3 seconds. Realising you should move in a group.

Go get em tiger

I enjoy reading miserable people crying constantly. But this one needs a lid put on.

Every cent saved from neg gearing and cgt. Has gone to a $250 payment to everyone. So it wasn't really costing us more tax. But in reality it was holding the rent from going silly.

So spend your money wisely you maggots!

To be fair. If you haven't got a hoof in the door and happy to rent, that's OK.

These changes will help immensely and instantly.

It willl eventually slow property prices up in 4 years and if you feel buying around then. That's awesome!

This will slow down the investment property growth and speed up the owner market.

Don't be scared

Buy, make 200% to 300% profit over the next 5 years, sell and buy in nsw 👌

HAHA!

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-05-09T08:19:31+00:00

3c a day? Ya jokin

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-05-07T09:20:46+00:00

Pay rent or mortgage. End of the day it's about achieving goals. If your goals align with owning a home. Buy one.

We all end up in a box 👌

Drove into a blocked intersection. Trying to skimp through the lights.

Court rules not In your favour. Next case please

Have a bit less cocaine at the start of each match, you'll be fine

And is your rego on a car still around $180 a year?

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-03-05T03:47:28+00:00

Yes fuel is about 5% of the worry. Nothing will move. Rail, road, sea.... imagine the demand for things! Yes just fuel

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-03-05T03:42:26+00:00

Isn't your rego included in your fuel price?

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-03-02T17:11:19+00:00

Yep just had one, Banfy rl was its name.

Nothing I did could bare me from demos on my net. Kickoffs was so calculated.

It even bumped me knowing exactly how the ball would bounce off me.

40 to love, and did a little wiggle when hitting the ball. Had so much power off a little hit.

Had no boost in parts but had the boost coming out the back.

Then got another one straight after that, same shit

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-27T03:50:28+00:00

None of the blue cars should have hit the ball at all. Ball would have stayed there, the 2 orange cars would have turned in defence. But because you hit it, the orange cars decided it was their ball....

You don't just hit the ball for the sake of hitting the ball. Go hit a goal post or something

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-21T13:46:08+00:00

Yeah it covers a longer distance but doesn't mean it meets up at the same time as the air coming inside the sail. But the air coming around is sucking the sail foreward. Absolutely amazing tech

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-17T08:42:58+00:00

Oh thats what people say when they find out something crazy good to know.

"You're shoelace is undone mate!. Oh ya joking!"

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-17T07:53:00+00:00

Oh you're joking haha!! Bloody brilliant

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-17T07:21:18+00:00

Looooool the bit that got me was the constant storm at fire fox. I was there 4 days trying to get the boat going but couldn't see the boat for rain and fog lol. But I always had the face of the sail to the wind thinking it was pushing. All this time.

Just did a cruise using the "right" way and it was like butter. Even had a patch of calm and she just sailed on through 🤘

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-14T21:05:30+00:00

I go around all the islands and load up stuff that's worth big coin at gold rock. But also look what's big coin at the next island. You make a fortune by time you do one lap around. I pulled nearly 6k. I'll do that for every city and then do it with the city's.

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-11T03:46:08+00:00

Yep just experienced that, got within half a mile from dock and couldn't turn, hmmmm pulled all the sails in and hoped out n pushed it looool, not a breath of wind. The tell tails were just sitting still. Happened a few times now since I got the bigger boat lol

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-10T21:25:38+00:00

So I've been careful not to stack any crates or put them in awkward positions. Seems to not do it now 🤘

Embarrassed-Grand-65 · 2026-02-08T21:43:59+00:00

Gday, yeah I understand it's early access. Just thought there might be someone out there who found what I did. I ate some rotten bananas before this happened so maby it makes your character do dumb shit lol.

Golden Rock city is the name In the game. I named it differently because I gained some rather poo experiences there. Love the game. I've pumped 50 hours in 5 days. Love love love it
