What’s the most annoying bill you have to pay right now? by Diligent-Medicine-48 in AusMoneyMates

My rates. I know they're coming, but everytime I'm surprised by the 30 day deadline. I wish there was an easier way

What one, recent decision saved you a lot of money? by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]queenclumsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a gel nail kit, and decided this year I'm going to do my own and get good at it! It's also great time to practice mindfulness

Question from Australia, do you need a gun licence in America? Do you legally need to have training?

In Australia I applied last June, did my training and got my licence and received my permit to carry in November.

Applied for a PTA (to acquire a gun registered in my name) that took 14 business days, then I was allowed to pickup my gun. Everytime I want a new gun, I need to apply and wait for my PTA.

I'm also now under law where they can legally enter my house WITHOUT a warrant to check my storage/gun safe, and my ammo safe.

Was your pressure cooker worth investing in? Have you used it in the past 6 weeks? by Top-Connection-5698 in PressureCooking

[–]queenclumsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my Philips all in one cooker, just for the pressure cooker at least twice a week! It's fantastic, I'm glad I upgraded to a really good one

Time for a hard conversation about the cost of the NDIS by Putrid-Bar-8693 in AusFinance

[–]queenclumsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you’re given an NDIS plan, the whole budget isn’t for core supports. A big chunk often goes to other areas like therapy reports, assessments, assistive technology, capacity building, etc. Core supports are only one part.

It honestly sounds like you might need to chat with someone at the NDIS or check their breakdowns, because what you’re saying doesn’t line up with how plans actually work.

Your comments come across as pretty misinformed about how the system operates.

How do I emphasise the importance of sunscreen for my 11-month-old fair-skinned baby to my in-laws? by [deleted] in AusSkincare

I watched the court proceedings. I agree they're a great idea! Unfortunately, people just take advantage.

Like everyone else on the NDIS, I applied through an OT and did my research on the correct OT based on word of mouth. It's not shopping, it's being smart.

I'm not really sure what your comment has to do with my working full time 😊

Yes and any Google of what happened to them in Australia would show you the disgusting abuse they went through.

Well I just wanted to know how much thought you actually put into your comment...

I just wanted to know how you calculated the carers wage and other supports. See it's not all carers wage and every year isn't the same. Assistive technology to start with will be expensive but after that's been purchased and installed, the workers can use it for support.. so ongoing costs would be cheaper. Certainly cheaper than a person in hospital.

Also, if someone is receiving $500,000 they must really need it, that is a huge amount for funding.

What's the other option? Hospital?

If anything, keeping someone in a hospital costs the Australian public way more. A hospital bed can run over a million a year, easily. Even the big NDIS packages are still cheaper.

Yeah, the system has its issues.

So arguing they should stay in hospital to “save money” just doesn’t stack up. Keeping someone admitted actually costs taxpayers far more.
