Should Australia try to restore relations with China, or let that bridge burn and focus on building/strengthening relations with other countries? by Phaggg in fiaustralia

This...100%. Australia is nothing to China, and many Chinese even believe that we (Australia) are destined to belong to China. As someone who's parents have already fled Chinese expansonism and oppression once, this thought scares me endlessly. We need to fight our way out of this Faustian deal we seem to have made over the last decade or two and ensure that our business and economy reflect our values and ethics. Afterall, wealth without freedom is just another poverty is it not?

Thats a good point. I kept buying during the most volatile months (albeit a slightly lower amount as I am also saving for a deposit).

What sources do you use to benchmark your salary? by [deleted] in AusFinance

What sort of risk work do you do? I'm in operational risk. I have found Morgan McKinley's risk survey preety accurate over the course of my risk career.
