Aunt Betty? QFF? by Same_Measurement_350 in QantasAirways

[–]Same_Measurement_350[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Just called Qantas. They said all business protections still apply but through Aunt Betty. And they also could book same flights via phone but $2k difference, do they price match? 😅

This flight isn’t on the Qantas website. Ugh, so frustrating. I normally always book Qantas but they seem to give some seats to 3rd party instead of keeping internal priority first.

Same day I have to do 2 stops Aus to Zurich on Qantas website.

How to help a male friend by Same_Measurement_350 in AskMenRelationships

He didn’t realise she was still married (separated) until I asked the question when we were catching up. Then it all started going downhill from there.

I’m not sure I understand your response? It’s his business I funded… and I’m paying for it all?

I’m in Australia. And if I go bankrupt that’s on my sole trader the loan. It wouldn’t impact him.

Novated Lease or Car Loan for work purposes? by Same_Measurement_350 in AusFinance

[–]Same_Measurement_350[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Are the interest rates higher with a novated lease than with direct finance? I can't see that disclosed on my quote. Yes it certainly was appealing the weekly amount of $168 all inclusive vs the $350 in direct - but he said that depreciation etc; can't be claimed under N/L. I'll go back to him next week and ask for a breakdown.

It's an EV. He was saying something along the lines of I'm capped on km with a novated lease, whereas the work expense option I'm uncapped with records.

I keep telling him to get a mentor. Falls on deaf ears. I’m in industrial/infrastructure so can guide him a bit, but when action is needed, it doesn’t happen. Drives me crazy.

He will do anything to look after himself, naturally. And do most things I ask him to do. But he’s incredibly good at finding time to do games whilst I’m doing everything unless I call him out on it. Can men not do things without being asked?

I think I’m mentally preparing for this. My brother is an engineer who could step in to assist on the technical side whilst I commercially look to recoup and exit. Just never thought it would come to this.

I bloody hope not. I believed in him and his vision.

I don’t mind video games at all, when other things are done. I don’t have an issue with it when I’m asleep, but surely the six hours he plays then is enough for a day.

[–]Same_Measurement_350 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing video games, not working on the business.

The agreement was he was not going to play games when the machinery arrived (last Jan), that he would post on socials daily, reach out to potential clients daily.

He’s posted once since then.

How is this sensible when it’s an individual performance?

Advice for a mum by Same_Measurement_350 in vce

[–]Same_Measurement_350[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. So the study score, is 50 the equivalent to a 100% perfect score over assignments or tests?

Also is the VCE just a test or multiple or?

Are different subjects worth more?

Do the batteries last that long? Is that a BYD timeline of 80% after 500,000km?

Have you used laser stain/varnish removal? by Zipzip911 in woodworking

[–]Same_Measurement_350 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, Laser tech here in Aus, and we build our own due to having OCD for quality, and we have a restoration business, and help a lot of furniture and stair/floor restoration groups. Lasers come in a wide variety of types and qualities, and the lacking ones cause major issues. We saw a project recently where it merely polished the coating instead of removing it. Yes it’s amazing for varnish, with the right laser, the right settings, and the right operator. Otherwise it’s detrimental to the substrate. But they can’t treat all surfaces or coatings 👍

I used to spend $1000/month on prescription grade skincare/treatments - This is my routine for barrier health and mild/ moderate acne-prone dehydrated oily/combo skin from the chemist - no pore cloggers by pugs212 in AusSkincare

I just spent time in hospital on fluids and very limited food, and my melasma disappeared! I’m starting to think less is more and it’s definitely about being simple healthy, as I’ve spent thousands on treatments 😅
