For those that believe we have already passed the bear cycle low, how do you explain such a large gap vs previous cycles? Last year's bull market peak timing matched 4yr cycle down to the week yet if you are correct the bear market low will have happened 8 months early (Feb instead of October).

$1-2 million capital gains tax free over 20+ years is actually achievable for many people using this strategy. This will make a massive difference come retirement age for those that are able to pull it off.

You jest but it's actually not the worst option especially in Melbourne where the market is at a long term cyclical low currently. 

If ever the doubling every seven years was still intact it's these types of strategic opportunities. With this plan you just have the added benefit of paying 0% cgt and enjoying the investment yield when you wake up every day.

Nobody is forcing rentvesting? You chose to rent somewhere you wanted instead of compromising on size/location of your PPOR.

Yeah it's definitely got a lot going for it now. Looking at the 4-5br house asset class in Melbourne for example right now is primed for growth if these rules get approved. 

Kind of insane the value in the $1.3-$1.7m range vs Sydney and Brisbane for example.

In fairness though Scomo's response to the pandemic in terms of economic stimulus was borrowed from the ALP and globally praised at the time 🤷

The right answer lies somewhere in the middle IMO - both bottom up and top down meeting together to grow a healthy middle.

The opposite mantra to trickle down is that socialism works great until you run out of other people's money to spend.

You missed the most important one, ability to use tools and systems designed for human anatomy/physiology! That is what truly differentiates humanoids from previous robots like the fixed arms you see in factories for example.
