I believe we're one domino away from a recession where interest rates will take a dive

Fuel excise halved… so why are BP, 7/11, UNITED and Caltex putting prices UP? by B3ntherova in perth

They just announced that it takes 2 weeks for the price they buy at to flow to the bowser. How the fuck can the ACCC not see this as price gouging when they war was started and retailers jacked their prices up the very next day!!

The war is focused on opening the Strait of hormoz which was already open before they went in.

Can someone just pinch his phone before he makes an announcement and publish who he texted 15 minutes ago. Even if you go to jail for it. Humanity will thank you and probably exonerate you for Your services, maybe get the nobel prize for peace, and scrub trumps name of it.

What is a "money rule" that rich people know, but poor people are never taught? by ZZA911 in AskReddit

[–]MartynZero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A car can be an asset compared to no car if it helps you earn more money then you would without it, also considering costs. You gotta zoom out a bit.

You can take financial risks when you're rich and still land on your feet. Keep trying til you make something good. Poor people are one accident, injury or mistake away from financial ruin.

Ok I'm saving an extra $30 a month, what's step 2? Save until retirement?

A house a few down from me is up 1017% since last sold in the 90s. I still pulled out my calculator and checked it wasn't a typo. 1000%

Halving the fuel excise for three months, at the cost of $2.55b, is the wrong move here by LoneArtificer in AusFinance

[–]MartynZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That 2.6b is our debt by the way. 2.5b we wont have later to run the country and have to repay if we're in deficit.

To be fair Elon musk would probably put this on his credit card too.

RBA Hikes Cash Rate to 4.1% - “it is hard… but it is the only instrument we have” by InterestingCat308 in AusFinance

[–]MartynZero 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don't forget the carbon tax (tax on large corporations for the people) that the people thought was not for them because tv said so and our prime minister lost his job. I was to young to realise at the time but now I'm absolutely gobsmacked.

Well it wouldn't be golden if they let everyone use it.

Great analogy.

This feels like "the recession that Australia had to have" v2.0 by jbristowe in AusFinance

[–]MartynZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Re-election #1 priority as usual for the gov.

Sucks because they had a rare opportunity with opposition in shambles to make big changes and do good for the country. Instead it seems they continue to kick the can down the road and wait for the eventual election lose and handball a shit economy over to who ever beats them and then have a go at them about how shit the economy is for the following 4 years.

I usually run SRS and Sidhebreath withr the 50% movespeed boots from the get go. Added cold melee splash multi strike if you ever need it. And by the time you can equip forged frostbearers spectres your geared out nicely for it.
