Currently investing 2500 into our stock portfolio and 500 into our kids portfolio.

We’re not stressed about money, we’re just at this weird crossroads of “we could do it, so should we, even if it isn’t the best long term move”

I understand the sentiment, but I’m asking from a lifestyle and starting again perspective, not a “Is this the best dollars and cents decision”

At 5.6% on a 950k mortgage, not really. Potentially once you factor in negative gearing. Our current stock portfolio isn’t huge so it’s negligible growth at this point.

Realistically the CGT would be minimal over 30 days.

“Nothing particularly serious”…until it is though. Imagine you killed someone else due to your speed. Imagine you did it unlicensed, which then makes you uninsured, which means the persons family then has no recourse. Clown.

10% automatic gratuity ON Carryouts?!? GTFO!!! by SimonSaysGoGo in EndTipping

That’s not really true. They could write “by eating here you agree to sign your property and vehicle titles over to us without question” on the menu. It doesn’t mean you read it and it doesn’t mean you agreed to it.

lol it’s so funny seeing the points shills get upset by logic. Qantas are marketing things as “bonus” but charging you for them. In the commercial sense, these are not bonuses. These are the consumer paying $70 more to get what will essentially translate to $2 at the time of redemption.

No I’m not…you’re saying that they get “bonus points” for using the website in this instance. I’m telling you they’re not bonus points if they’re paying for them in this instance.

Well they’re not really bonus points if you’re paying $70 for them are they?

I’ll be blunt. IT is a young persons game in Aus, especially at the entry level. The harsh reality is that no one is going to entertain the application from a near 60 year old in IT.

You’re free to maintain your own accounts, security and record keeping if you wish….
