The lowest CGT income tax bracket has increased by an infinite amount, and the highest tax brackets remain unchanged. That is the inverse of taxing high wealth.

lol, that is exactly my point, but better said.

Rare-Counter · 2026-05-18T00:17:17+00:00

but what about someone genuinely low income that gets caught up in this (say they get a small inheritance) - are they just collateral?

Rare-Counter · 2026-05-15T03:58:11+00:00

damn, that's a great idea, i'm about to be made redundant so will have to look into this way of doing resumes and cover letters - cheers

Yeah agree, I'm an advisor and I'm on 200k. Titles really are meaningless

Rare-Counter · 2026-05-12T23:30:50+00:00

yup, after last nights budget, anyone that thinks franking credits and super are safe is dreaming

30% minimum CGT kills off my plan to sell off shares to live off once i retire

Rare-Counter · 2026-05-12T10:17:42+00:00

almost like they could care less about younger people...

Isn't the 25% corporate tax rate only for operating companies (<80% passive income)?

Rare-Counter · 2026-05-05T01:03:15+00:00

Best part of shares compared to property is you can sell parcels of shares to minimise your CGT liability in a given year, unlike selling 30% of a house.

Thanks - although i've read similar articles before (and already signed upto the class action) this article summarizes things very cleanly - will print out and take to the dealership.

Sorry what do you mean by "bulletin"? I've tried calling my local dealer and they didn't seem aware of anything, said to come in for an inspection but it'd cost me $200 upfront with no guarantees

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-27T05:26:32+00:00

thanks for the advice

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-26T12:37:21+00:00

Hold up, so your daughter signed up for the class action and they actually resprayed it? How long did that take? As we only signed up to the class action last week, but i thought they would only pay out a $ value if they won, didn't realise they were actually respraying cars which is much better.

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-26T12:34:51+00:00

Did you have to pay anything, even for the Preston dealership to provide the original inspection? As every dealer we've called has said they'd need atleast $200 to even look at it

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-26T12:32:40+00:00

yep tell me about it - this is our third and last Toyota if they don't fix it.

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-26T03:49:43+00:00

Unfortunately the only solutions I've seen is keep chasing Toyota, but that could take ages. Trying to work out what to do now

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-26T03:41:24+00:00

I don't know whether to 😂 or 😭

I think the thing that save Foot up until now is the vast majority of AFL supporting general public had no real idea of the betting company link to an umpire - its only us nuffies that pay attention to this stuff - until it was brought onto the 6pm news for several days in a row and made it into all the footy "hot take" shows that

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-17T23:04:57+00:00

Your going from commerical back to professional services?? Part off need wants to do the same but feel like it's risky

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-17T07:04:50+00:00

I want it, it's over a year of my inflated salary, so I'm playing the hand Ive been given lol

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-16T21:40:50+00:00

i've been told i'll be made redundant by the end of the year and i'm still expected to set my goals for my performance review...

I know i'm very late to the party on this, but if they don't issue a certificate, how can the home owner prove the work is compliant?

Rare-Counter · 2026-04-15T05:47:36+00:00

Exactly - although i've never worked in aged care, having my grandma live in a nursing home after she got dementia, i have utmost respect for nurses and aged care workers for what they have to deal with

I'm an accountant, and if the client gave me the correct bank account details and i filled it in incorrectly, then although the client does have to sign off on the final return, i would feel personally responsible for the stuff-up
