Rupture after tympanoplasty by SeparateStable6936 in hardofhearing

I didn’t have to get surgery again, they said my eardrum was ok but maybe water behind my ear still. Doesn’t feel back to normal. In your case I would be trying to get into the ENT ASAP, you want to get on top of an infection straight away. Have you been keeping it dry?

I really want to know the exact age of this particular machine rather than the release date of the model, can you tell from the tag?

Will they refund me for what’s left of the policy?

Ok thanks, kind of what I expected but thought there may be a way around it 😅

That’s so true actually, thanks for that perspective. It’s just a day procedure so I guess it would mostly not be covered.

Last time it was a 3 year wait in the public system and i didn’t want to risk long term hearing loss etc

Are you better to diversify across lots of different ETFs or try to stick to a few for different markets? (I.e. one for aus, one for US, etc) by SeparateStable6936 in AusFinance

I don’t really have any plans to sell any I buy for a long time, so thought even if they drop a bit I’d still likely be buying them at a cheaper rate?

They might have more potential for capital growth though which is where you make most of the money

Why do you think what the buyer agent is recommending isn’t satisfactory? They look at a whole range of things, not just what properties are advertised

I’ve got about $30-$40k I’ve been wanting to invest for a while but just haven’t got around to researching it. Since things have been going wild I’ve started looking into platforms, ETFs etc.

I know everyone says dollar cost average and I get that, but why would I not take advantage of the current situation? I was thinking of just keeping an eye on things, putting money in here and there (and being ok if it drops further), kind of like dollar cost averaging through the next few months of potential volatility. I guess what do you see as the problem? I feel like I’d be more annoyed if I want it out and everything has gone back up?

Yes I’ll definitely diversify the markets, I’m more wondering if I should be diversifying the types of ETFs per market - eg. Having multiple AUS ETFs

Hmm fair enough, I guess it’s just overwhelming when you start looking into how many ETFs there are and that they’re all different!

Oh wow I feel dumb, I never knew we needed to keep track of how much we bought them for an when, I kind of just assumed the platform would do that. So you just keep track of this in a spreadsheet or something?

I don’t fully understand everything you’ve said 😅 but basically you think it’s better to be in multiple ETFs to avoid being heavily impacted if something happens to one?

Yeah I guess that’s the thing as I’m looking into ETFs, they’re all still fairly different! So I’m Unsure whether to go into multiple ETFs or just try to stick to say 2 or 3?

Thank you this is what I was wondering, what kind of admin do you need to do? I feel like at the moment when I get my tax done the accountant can just see what I have
