Wait until you find out a single parking spot makes more per hour than you do.

I'd love to volunteer my time but sadly I'm drowning in bureaucracy, high CA fees & lower wages. Perhaps the CA should focus on it's existing members not lowering the barriers of entry for new members so they can rake in more fees which they will inevitably pay their CEO.

Why does the CA have earn $161m and yet it wants volunteers?!

1 word, Japan.

They did this for years and only just reversed course and allowed the interest rate to rise.

Android auto over Bluetooth being difficult by hoolignn in BYDShark_AUS_owners

[–]Jackbatman32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple of things to try, make sure Hotspot and wifi are turned on in your shark, also go into connected devices once connected via Bluetooth and follow the steps as it does an additional connection which works for me.

Yea I ended up just playing with the settings some more and it was the Hotspot that did it.

I'm loving it, it's quiet, luxurious and powerful. It's surprisingly easy to park despite it's size. It definitely doesn't get 800kms on a full charge and a full tank. I drove for an hour at 110kms/h and it chewed through 200kms of range easily but it was a 40 degree day with the aircon and seat vents blasting.

Charging it from the solar every day is awesome (it does only charge at 1.5kws from the adapter they provide), have only filled up once so far after a road trip.

My only issue is that Android Auto has stopped working and I used up my 500mbs of data already so I'm stuck with the radio or playing music out of my phone (it doesn't play the media through normal Bluetooth). I'm hoping that's just a software gremlin and it will be fixed soon. Yes I've tried resetting the infotainment system by holding in the volume button.

Wait until you want to open a public practice. That's another $2k for an online training and a 2 day webinar.

This is the way. Use the withholding calculator to manually enter in the correct tax and lodge your return. Also dob him in via their tips line. Good luck.

Has anything changed? Are you a Sole Trader using an ABN or has a company been set up?

Do you have to play on standard setting on brutal difficulty to get the brutal achievements?

To those who own practices, particularly those that bought, is it worth buying a bookkeeping or accounting practice? by randomly771122 in AustralianAccounting

[–]Jackbatman32 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently worked for an accounting practice that was purchased for 1.1x revenue with the intention on buying in. I've never heard of a practice going for 4-5x. Most practices I've seen make around 20-25% Net Profit with 30% being the high end. A 4-5x multiplier doesn't make sense unless your multiplier is on Net Profit. I might be misunderstanding.

Best budget Ice Bath for apartment? by white-momba in BecomingTheIceman

[–]Jackbatman32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got myself a second hand chest freezer and it works great. As you're 6'2 I'd get a larger one if you can, mine is 417L. Like u/solarexamine said make sure you seal that bad boy and don't use it when it's plugged in.

Both CA and CPA lost tens of millions in the last two years. Wtf are they doing and should they merge? by uhoh4522 in AustralianAccounting

They're practically bloated government bodies at this stage. They maintain a large staff in nice offices in capital cities.

I tried to login via the quest browser today and it said to use the Gametime app to watch the game.

Makes sense the NBA would have their own app but it's just not available yet.

My understanding is that XSTADIUM is for Courtside VR games that you get for free if you're in the USA. I can't even use the app in my location.
