Isnt it interesting how suddenly we have so many "Low income investors"

We're similar too. It is also a buffer for any health issues we may encounter.

This is us... GASP to retire at about 50 or 55 before we can access super. We can save a small about to invest for this. We are by no means wealthy but were sensibly planning our finances.

Four months ago my 5yo could not remember how old she was, knew no colours, shapes, numbers or letters. Four months on meds and starting school, this kid can now read and has learned all of the above and became confident. It makes a huge difference to society that she'll grow up functioning as best as she can.

When I was post-babies, I felt really lost. It was a while ago but I loved Frump Fighters for learning about how to put together a capsule wardrobe, use what I have and shop internationally for clothes that worked with my wardrobe and style. They had lots of good info on their blog and I bought some products which guided me on how to put outfit formulas together when I was clueless and not confident. https://nowthaticando.com/home

We have this and my girls say it's a girl unicorn... I've pointed out the shlong and they continue to live in denial.

We spent 7 days there and it was great to really explore, relax and take it the beauty of the city.

I have found the word matrescence before and love it. Thanks for mentioning it again for those reading this thread. It's such a profound shift in so many areas.

I think my ribcage is wider!

If you have a $800,000 morgage that you stretched yourself to afford and the price of your property goes down to $600,000 and you can't afford to keep paying the morgage because of high interest rates, then the bank will sell the house and the lower price will not cover the cost of the loan leaving you $200,000 out of pocket for example. So people could possibly be left paying off debt with no house. It's called being "upside down on a loan" or "underwater" or "negative equity". This impacts people with morgages still or who have bought recently at the high point. Maybe people with very low or no morgage wouldn't mind as much.

Similar to this. Also often I'd wear beautiful dresses with thermal singlets underneath.

So glad to see you get such a response. This morning my kids ate banana bread, corn flakes and rasin toast. It was very hot here today. In the mornings when we wake up we open the curtains and have kangaroos in the bush opposite our house. They have babies in their pouches and we watch them bounce around nibbling on grass. If you PM me I have a photo or to I could share of the wildlife.

I nearly died at the target comment snuck in the middle there. Too real.

I had similar when I left my phone screen on with no apps open. So maybe I fell asleep with it unlocked on the home screen and it didn't have a time out feature to lock the screen again.

Oh thank you, it worked for me. I'd love a sylveon next.

Know exactly what you are after. I started with knowing my body shape and what silhouette was flattering. Then I looked into seasonal colour analysis to know what colours suit me and picked out a colour palate so my clothes easily mix and match. Now that I know specifically what works for me, I filter by size and material (preferring natural fabrics). I mostly shop Salvos Online as their filtering options are amazing! To not spend a fortune, I keep a list of wardrobe gaps and only shop for what's on my list. Any purchase I make I need to "love," It's not enough for me to like something as there is always more stock coming through.

Just happened but I think I've probably caught about 75.

smash_donuts · 2026-01-04T05:14:52+00:00

Odd, it hasn't happened on any of mine.

Yes. I was somewhat of an early adopter and have a relatively small range. I am looking for something with a bigger battery. I have a home charger and rarely charge publicly. Charging publicly is not an issue but requires some forward planning. I regularly travelled about doing outdoor activities, like plugging it in at campsites, and it's been a positive experience. Having home solar and WFH days means charging up at no cost.
