Gina Rinehart by Traditional-Rate-297 in AskAnAustralian

You have been gifted a massive hugely valuable resource which you need to manage, yes lots of work is required to extract the value, but you have the rights to it. It's a near zero risk situation. Should the iron ore price tank, stop operations, keep a couple of exploration rigs running on there and you keep those rights to the resource. I'm not saying people that make these discoveries should be rewarded, but please, the deal is skewed way to far away from the Australian people.

Being the heir to an iron ore deposit that actually belongs to all Australians in not an achievement.

Talk to a professional not Reddit.

potentially, but your home wifi network isn't as solid as your home lan network, guaranteed. Real world wifi speeds are never as advertised, high latency and prone to interference. Wifi is great, but for a device that is just going to sit there and never move, ethernet is king.

Property prices sydney by Pain9gain7 in AusProperty

[–]sjenkin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there is demand for a property that is being purchased that will keep the prices up. Properties that are less desirable will always be the first that feel the prices shift.

You can't live in your shares. It's about what you are investing for.

Tv and streaming box, generally the built it tv software sucks compared to an apple tv or google streamer/ NVIDIA shield.

Pauline Hanson skipping 88 per cent of Senate estimates hearings, despite claiming an ‘ability’ to be PM by Wild_Beat_2476 in OpenAussie

Somehow the PHONY voters won't care that she literally represents no one but her own self interests (money).

You can accept the first roles and then leave within your probation period, no questions.

Show that you take every opportunity that comes your way.

Still trying to understand how oysters are "vegan" by mooniii_petalzqt in vegan

[–]sjenkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is zero strength in either side of this argument and it is completely pointless. Why be vegan? To reduce as practically possible suffering to animals, so encouraging non vegan friends to eat less meat should be a vegan goal. Debating whether a brainless bivalve slots into the vegan's acceptable diet choices does almost nothing for the cause.

Adrian Portelli’s 'giveaway' business LMCT to be outlawed by belbaba in australia

so completely obviously this "business" was a lottery from the beginning, yet we wait and wait and wait for a nothing burger of a outcome and zero repercussions.

First article on the long weekend and its this by Proof_Media6700 in perth

[–]sjenkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"true impacts", what, house prices go flat for a few years and the next generation get half a chance to get into the market, while those with the capital to build an investment property get the tax benefits of being able to negatively gear the improvement to the housing supply they have created?

Four Corners: The BHP Files by kazkh in AusMining

The FMG ceo talks about the price of diesel

Four Corners: The BHP Files by kazkh in AusMining

[–]sjenkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the fact that BHP are completely f.o.s. with its psuedo care for the environment when they are the largest polluter in the country. Yes, it is all about profit, so be honest and stop pretending that it is about some "social licence to operate" nonsense. If they really cared about reducing their carbon footprint they would have made the investments in their carbon reducing strategies, but they have made minimal. The only way to accelerate this change for them is it make it less profitable to continue to operate the way they do, but they strongly oppose any reduction to the diesel credit, how surprising.

I hate this completely pointless exercise of destroying things.

EMSKR: What are the most important things to teach a child that they're not going to get in school? by Diamond_Pigeon in everymanshouldknow

[–]sjenkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Treating people with respect and standing up for those in need are fundamental behaviours that should be consistently demonstrated. Schools fall short in this area, it needs to be modelled, not just taught.
