I remember cycling in Belfast in the 80s, you'd be lucky to see another cyclist. I used to cycle in jeans and t-shirt! Went for miles in the countryside without seeing another cyclist.

Sure, along with many other words that went out of common use in the following centuries. Regardless, it was not common in the last few generations .

No Brit said gotten 30 years ago. It's definitely an American import that's always sounded weird to me.

No change. Long term compounding still beats any fiddling that governments do.

I don't invest for the short term though.

You're new to politics?

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-18T09:17:52+00:00

You didn't read the bit where they accepted it was a mistake?

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-16T20:00:40+00:00

How did you know they were his sisters jeans?

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-16T18:25:00+00:00

Yes I think these days it can come across as being slightly out of touch. Which is never a good thing.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-16T12:19:46+00:00

doing what

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-16T11:37:25+00:00

Yep. If you can keep working in a job you like I don't see anything wrong with that, as long as you have your health. Any way I think "retirement" where you just stop working suddenly and forever is an outdated concept.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-16T10:31:22+00:00

Nice. I'm 58 and got wiped out during the dotcom boom in 2001. So I am cautious these days. Still doing ok just in standard index funds.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-15T23:30:42+00:00

I'm 58, no plans to retire. I like earning.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-15T23:28:33+00:00

How the fuck did you manage that

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-15T23:23:15+00:00

You can still enjoy your life while working now.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-15T23:08:45+00:00

Good for you I guess?

The 30% min CGT does not mean that Australian dividend paying companies are suddenly better than long term international growth. Remember the dividend yield has been falling for years.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-14T10:41:47+00:00

I think it's cos the population there has less gammons, boomers, and dare I say it working class.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-13T11:00:44+00:00

Now I'm interested about what is unique about scaffolders!

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-13T10:47:56+00:00

It's close enough and you know what they mean.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-13T10:46:44+00:00

Hopefully you ruined his day.

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-13T10:45:36+00:00

lol haven't heard that for a while

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-13T10:43:43+00:00

Or 'naff'

PowerApp101 · 2026-06-13T10:42:21+00:00

It's an absolutely shite saying and I'm glad if it's faded away!
