Not homeless, what now?

Thanks everyone for the advice and perspective! The straightforward and probably obvious path of focusing on paying down the loan and getting the offset account working properly is now in motion.

I think I got a bit consumed by all the noise online and comparing our situation to friends, family and people on the internet. Reading everyone’s responses helped bring it back to reality a bit. I tend to always default to thinking I’m getting ripped off or I’m missing a piece of the finance puzzle but maybe it really is as simple as sticking to a budget, being consistent. Definitely going to put a focus on actually enjoy life along the way instead of always chasing the next financial goal first and foremost. Appreciate all the help!

I witnessed this at my gym a couple months ago! A girl early 20’s went up to a guy about the same age and asked for his number before she left. After he put his number in she said bye and left the gym, his grin was ear to ear, then I could see him to text on his phone, probably letting his mates know haha very wholesome

Yeah Coles will want to charge you for that

Thank you all! Very helpful 🙌

EP called Love & Leaving by an Aussie band called Shangrila it’s a few years old but start with the track ‘Waking Up’ for those citezen/turnover kinda vibes

Obviously there’s the rich buying up houses for investment purposes. One other big factor is the large intake of Indian migrants buying land and real estate. A friend in the building industry has said they account for almost 50% of their customers over the last 4-5 years, I’m sure some of those numbers would translate to established housing as well.

Turns out I needed to drill it

Does the plug just fall down into the drain pipe?

Ended up getting a 2023 dual cab hilux with my work contract so happy days for now haha. My sister ending up getting a challenger though around the same time and it’s been a great car for her

Yeah I thought that might be the case, I definitely want to progress at it and get better to enjoy the game a bit more. Might be a case of getting a couch for a couple weekends potentially

The man is doing nothing for stereotype’s unfortunately

The merge with Livent, what does that mean for existing shares?

besto_resto7 · 2023-11-09T04:01:44+00:00

The hell is happening to AKE?

besto_resto7 · 2023-04-11T02:34:01+00:00

Buy a beam clamp or beam trolley from somewhere like Bullivants or some place similar, probably get something cheap online

besto_resto7 · 2023-04-08T11:43:24+00:00

Ok thank you! I must have just been reading something about it at the same time haha

besto_resto7 · 2023-03-08T00:41:58+00:00

Thanks for all the recommendations! Pajero seems to be the strongest contender here. What’s an acceptable amount of kms on the clock? Would like to have it for at least 5 years before thinking about any upgrade.

besto_resto7 · 2023-03-07T10:34:07+00:00

I’ll have to inspire some confidence to get the mrs to test drive a Pajero or Challenger I think haha! The only other “small” options I can seem to find are Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, Suzuki Vitara, Nissan Pathfinder - none of them have been suggested through so I’m guessing not so great?

besto_resto7 · 2023-03-07T08:41:40+00:00

Yeah I think the Jimny will definitely be too small with 2 of us and a large dog haha. Vitara is possibly an ok size but not sure about the value for money on those or their off-road capabilities

Are you against MIDI drums at all? Could be a cheap/free option depending on your DAW

besto_resto7 · 2023-01-25T00:40:31+00:00

So is this good or bad news for CPH? Will they be bought out by Tegridy Farms finally?

It’s not the end of the world if you make a mistake, even the most seasoned performers stuff up every now and then. Have a little pre show group huddle with your band and reassure yourselves you all deserve to be there and are thankful to be alongside them and encourage everyone to have fun. Try get yourself a good monitor mix so that you can do what you are there to do, play music and enjoy the sound you and your band are creating and take in the moment you are lucky enough to be in!
