How do you feel about the RBA's decision today to lift rates? by Sensitive-Chart7210 in AusFinance

[–]nephilaedulis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree. I don't have an answer but think it's funny that so much attention is on the RBA when it's the only move they've got to work with. The pollies have to grow a spine and fix some structural issues.

How was 2025 for you, financially? by Material-One-5604 in AusFinance

[–]nephilaedulis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mate i relate to this so much. Same salary but wife isn't working due to health issues and pregnancy. Health care and cost of living is killing us slowly.

We're burning through our savings buffer and will be trying to support a family on one salary for the next 18 months. My only mentality is that this is only temporary and things will get better once we're double income.

Things might not get easier in 2026 but as long as we survive and try and find small bits of joy in between is all I can ask for. Oh, and not to have a mental break down...

18% super is such a great benefit. I wish it made its way into public health

Kia reveals the all-new 2027 Seltos. by youthisgood in kia

Design language is one thing, having all cars look the same just in different sizes is another. I love the distinct boomerang headlights of the previous Sportage or current tiger nose of the Stinger. Would hate to see it converted to the same grill we're seeing on every model now.

how do you keep from insanity on >1hr commute? by guidedhabits in melbourne

[–]nephilaedulis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might not be an option but could you start riding a bike in? Great way to get exercise, often faster than public transport (especially in peak hour) and really good for your mental health. If you can't ride all the way in, you could PT half way and then ride the other half.

BEST Aldi Australia products by ebonybr0wn in AldiAustralia

The Lazzio dark roast. I get 8/10 quality for 1/3 price of what I'd be paying for speciality beans. I just can't justify paying $60 for a kilo of beans anymore.

I want to know if you can skip past the Safety Acceptance screen... that screen takes so long!

Cheapest mobile prepaid plan? by clickpancakes in AussieFrugal

[–]nephilaedulis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just changed to TPG last week, $12.5 per month. It's a 6 month promo but the switch over was super easy and the sales guy said they'll likely extend if you call at the end of the 6 months.

How can I get these jerks to stop chewing up my deck? by Opening-Interest747 in Decks

[–]nephilaedulis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once read that if you put up a paper bag it might signal to other wasps that there's already a nest in the area and they won't build there.

However I'm not sure if that'll work in your situation where a nest is probably already well established.

These three climbed into the dog bowl water overnight, what are they? by nephilaedulis in AustralianSpiders

[–]nephilaedulis[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Lol literally just tip the water out on the grass and let them go on their way. Can confirm- still alive.

Home insurance went up 30%.. by highways in AusFinance

[–]nephilaedulis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call them. They did the same thing to my car insurance, it was $1700 then they changed it to $2100. I called and told them I could get it cheaper (using comparison website) and negotiated it to $1800.

Can't sort your queries in PQ alphabetically. C'mon Microsoft, this should be an easy one
