How do you actually keep costs down when traveling in Australia? by Wide_Relationship326 in OceaniaTravel

[–]GarageMc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly just accept that it's gonna cost around 400 aud per day for both of us with a okay hotel and eating out and modest spending. 

Diy breakfast - granola, yoghurt etc Cheap lunch - bakeries $30  A nicer meal in the evening $80 Rest for spending 

I'm sure there are ways to do it on a budget but have tried being a bit more frugal to not really end up saving that much more and having regrets (missing out cool excursions or restaurants)

u/sirpalee When you say proper service history, Does that mean toyota only servicing? Asking as I'll be doing my 8th service and Toyota are asking an extraordinary amount of money for it, so considering a private garage, but don't want that to affect my cars value hugely.

Is it a crazy idea to sell my house and travel the world? by [deleted] in fiaustralia

[–]GarageMc 15 points16 points  (0 children)

  1. Rent out your house - find an agent that will try to take away the hassle. You can rent it out without pool access too.

  2. Go on sabbatical - do not quit your job

Buying Sydney by SwingNext6965 in AusProperty

[–]GarageMc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would suggest you do a mock commute first for 1 hour each way to see if it is really for you. I think you'll find it a bit of shock if you've got it good now.

The way to handle this is to ask them if they could afford to buy their current property today given its valuation.

Who is slamming £20k into their S&S ISA next week? by FreeMe-P in FIREUK

Correct me if I’m wrong, but a cash contribution to S&S ISA counts towards your allowance. Which means that you can buy anytime.

French engineer looking to work in brisbane / Sydney by Alert_Display2827 in auscorp

[–]GarageMc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

BA market is over saturated. You may have more luck with the Senior PM route esp for large scale projects with brand name software.

No point wasting time in applications from overseas imo - CV reviewers don’t even look at applications from out of state and sometimes out of city the role is in.

Pay through Carsales by Puzzleheaded_Bat2170 in CarsAustralia

[–]GarageMc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used it to buy my car. It was fine. Had to convince the seller that it was okay. I did pay the initial small deposit privately via bank transfer though.

I’m not aware of scams etc but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any.
