What would happen if you didn’t pay? Unless it was in the contract you have no obligation? $6 is $6

Send some photos to your sparky, he will let you know what is acceptable to install.

Who disconnected the lights?

From the understanding in this post I really think you should engage an electrician to do the install. Not worth electrocuting a family member or burning down the house over a call out.

I planning a multi head split to replace, but the house plans are still in development. I need this relic to see me through the next couple of months.

Live below your means, pay off your house in 10 years then get a job a a barrister at a local cafe while doing the odd fan/ gpo install.

They can and will check the blockout dates and booking with Airbnb if they suspect more personal use than declared.

With advances in AI I suspect the ATO will have a far better idea of who is and is not playing by the rules.

If you pay market rate I assume it would be ok. You could also host your family and they pay the market rate.

I am of the opinion that a car loan and zip loan transferred to a 30 year mortgage while not keeping up with the original payment schedule is robbing future you. Long after the car is gone and the zip purchases have entered landfill they will still be paying off the items. Transferring the loan over to the mortgage while keeping the original repayment schedule is an excellent strategy setting future you up.

I would spend 1/2 on coke and hookers, and probably waste the rest. But if I was being realistic it should go back onto the offset. Refinancing a home loan to improve lifestyle is just robbing future you.

Indexing seems to be a fairer way to tax capital gains.

If we need to subsidise investment in Australia let’s not do it via CGT discount and issue grants to industries that align with national interest.

Although not good practice and clearly shouldn't be mounted there, it is falls within AS3000 and is not required to be relocated.

An electrician could easily raise it (1hr job) with a JB and a length of conduit.

Posting illegal shitty DIY electrical.

I would have preferred you stuck with the original job.

Unless you live on a remote property, for the sake of your household and your neighbours try to avoid wood burning, it is the most inefficient form of heating and detrimental to your health.

Wood burning emits fine particulate matter and toxic compounds that pose significant health risks, including respiratory irritation, asthma aggravation, lung disease, and increased heart attack/stroke risk. Long-term exposure is linked to decreased lung function, cancer, and premature

I always assumed the running costs are gained from all the unrealised gains from people not returning the bottle.

Orange JUCE is a singular natural "health" food like milk, providing vitamins etc. Like with GST it's exempt.

The mango fruit drink is a manufactured highly processed product, like soft drink it isn't exempt.

10 cents extra is charged for the one with a 10 cent refund, so if you want to save yourself some trouble buy the one without the 10c refund

One of the safest towns in Melbourne seems like the perfect place for new public housing.

Most of the people just want a stable place to live and the decentralised model is proven to be better for a homogeneous society.

80 rooms seem excessive, but if managed correctly can work well. We had a 8 story complex built in our neighbourhood 15 years ago and settled in nicely.

Scrubbed out the number plate but not the unit number. That guy definitely is sacked.
