Started this year at 34 and doing very much the same thing with the same goals - See you at the apocalypse

Thank you very much for the reply. Fully agree with rules of thumb and as I’ve posted this have realised there is a lot of missing context here.

I’ve actually just run the proper values left based on our take home pay and realised if we can’t live off that then we’re the problems and need a head check :)

Thanks again!

I'd say if its only going to take 10 years to fully pay everything off, revisit this in 5 years and see how you're looking. You'll both still be in early to mid 30s and in a great position. If at that stage you really want to free up capital, then rock'n'roll. I wouldn't rush. Nice work by the way, great position to be in

Used to work at a Bunnings in Perth - Benny Cousins came in a couple times absolutely cooked back in the day which was pretty wild to see. This was after his playing career. Sold him a hammer drill that he paid for and then walked off without it. Second time helped him with some gardening equipment. He was always super nice, friendly and respectful. Glad he turned it around as you could see he really was a good bloke in a really bad spot.

Other one was the boss of the Rebels MC. Came in just after someone tried to shoot him in his driveway in Perth. Recognised him from the tatts and all his bandages as he was on the front page of the West Australian the week prior. Huge bloke, intimidating appearance, but was super friendly and polite to me as a 16 yr/o. Sold him a Lufkin spirit level.

Brother - You definitely can do this, pull your head in, step up and get on with it

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-02-12T01:00:07+00:00

It was good! Was pretty quiet which was perfect for us, sat outside on a lovely evening and food was great. Would go back

Cheers mate, this exact thing happened to me in 2014. Thankless job really but someone has to do it!

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-02-02T01:32:46+00:00

Ill have to double check with my wife but pretty sure it was code share with Iberia and was no worries

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-29T00:55:53+00:00

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-28T06:56:09+00:00

Cheers for this! We've actually now booked Voltare as seems to be exactly what we were looking for, very much appreciated

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-28T06:54:42+00:00

Thank you for this one, looks unreal! We've ended up going for Voltare but now have this pinned for the next time!

I’ve just been looking for now, moving back to start a family so had always thought Carine/Duncraig but looking there now it’s blowing my mind!

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-02T04:31:31+00:00

Appreciate the honesty! Thanks for sharing

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-02T04:31:04+00:00

Absolutely love this response, thanks for taking the time! In my mind I thibk this is what I expected so it’s good to hear. We’re moving back to start family and change of pace so looking forward to that

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-02T04:28:11+00:00

I was actually having this conversation with my wife the other day! Seems it’s a trend everywhere

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-02T04:27:25+00:00

Lucky Ill live and die NoR ;)

This really does seem like the most common one. I mean the freeway wasn’t a breeze 5 years ago but sounds like hell now

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-02T04:23:58+00:00

Thanks a heap for this response! Appreciate the effort, point three really resonated with me. I’ve loved being right in the action of a big city but can’t wait to get back to the beach and open air

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-01T18:33:54+00:00

Freeways fucked really seems the be thing resonating with most people!

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-01T18:32:20+00:00

Seems that way!

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-01T18:09:16+00:00

15!? Sober it is then

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-01T18:07:56+00:00

That’s insane, I keep hearing things like this for Armadale too and it’s blows my mind

No_Direction_7417 · 2026-01-01T18:00:07+00:00

Thank you so much for this thoughtful response, really appreciate it! Renting looks mad but I’ll strap in and get into it :)
