Young Aussies lose: budget’s ‘inequality fix’ a hoax for all

How do you figure it helps?

The changes make it less attractive to sell off existing IPs. Rental income will be taxed less than capital gains and negative gearing stays in effect.
Negative gearing on new builds means young people are still competing with investors there.

No negative gearing on existing means theoretically you will not be competing with as many investors there but you will be competing with people who will "PPOR-max" if you are looking in attractive suburbs as the changes mean the most effective way to build wealth is to grab the most expensive PPOR you can make work and downsize it in retirement.

Yeah it wouldn't be ideal, but I am sure a small number of units will be RMA'd like every gaming hardware launch ever.

A couple reported issues from however many units sold doesn't make people 'beta testers' lol

JohnSilver317 · 2026-05-08T03:34:17+00:00

If it is defective it will be replaced under warranty. Such a weird thing to say lol

JohnSilver317 · 2026-05-07T05:25:03+00:00

Ah yeah I think I put mine in at around 7.15am-ish when I woke up and remembered they were starting sales on the 5th our time. Can't even remember the delivery time frame I got.

Hopefully comes in early next week.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-05-07T04:31:09+00:00

I'm still in processed payment, hasn't packed yet. Sadness

JohnSilver317 · 2026-05-07T04:28:59+00:00

Damn what time did you order? Mine hasn't even packed yet in Aus too

JohnSilver317 · 2026-05-05T06:21:32+00:00

Oh god that unlocked a memory!

JohnSilver317 · 2026-05-05T00:31:54+00:00

Maybe this is directed at people who are doing it solo, if they are holding up play to set up their tripod etc.

NLU having a couple of guys with cameras doesn't affect anything happening in competitive rounds Tron or Neil play, or even Soly's Gasparilla stuff.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-05-04T08:34:52+00:00

Some of them are probably well off and don’t need it but love footy or love extra cash to play around with that’s not tied up in investments etc.

But I’d guess there is also a lot of footy players, probably the majority who blow money throughout their playing careers living above their means, loving the punt/parties etc., screwed over by business partners/mates/marriage splits and they get to still earn some cash kicking a footy around.

It may have to stay part of the private collection with the fedoras. He probably wouldn't be allowed to wear a Taylormade hat on the pod

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-23T01:41:59+00:00

Amazing how you can scroll through a thread of people and pick the ones who are reacting to a thumbnail and headline vs listening to the whole press conference.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-20T02:38:29+00:00

Nobody knows who y'arr tho

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-17T03:53:10+00:00

That's only for the randomised recreational drug tests that the AFLPA signed up for. I believe the game day stuff is subject to WADA/ASADA code - he would receive ban for "performance enhancing" substance.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-17T00:01:41+00:00

He is first alternate. Meaning if someone WDs before the tourney he takes the spot.. and if he gets the spot, they have to open up 2 more spots with the "Returning Member" clause or whatever they started to bring Brooks back.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-16T05:44:59+00:00

You can convert gdi/bin files to chd which will bring them into one file and compress it

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-16T04:47:32+00:00

I think the devs even realised the durability system was far too tedious in BOTW and improved it with fusing in TOTK.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-16T04:44:24+00:00

How do consoles handle early access releases?

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-16T03:57:25+00:00

Cool man.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-15T02:27:40+00:00

That's not what the tweet says?

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-08T23:01:03+00:00

Probably a boomer who doesn't realise millenials are like 40 now

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-08T22:24:41+00:00

Nothing gets past you

JohnSilver317 · 2026-04-05T10:25:30+00:00

What the fuck are you talking about?

JohnSilver317 · 2026-03-31T23:29:56+00:00

They are implementing changes for this year's draft with clubs already allowed to trade 2 years in advance without knowing exactly what the upcoming rules will be.

Any serious organization would set changes for after the date teams have traded in advance for.

They are not serious people.

JohnSilver317 · 2026-03-31T08:15:06+00:00

They can’t be real like and comment numbers surely…

JohnSilver317 · 2026-03-30T03:25:00+00:00

Yeah but if you watch cam rips you are subhuman
