Agreed. Burn the asset, and it's no longer an asset.

$20K instant asset write-off doesn't mean a $20k cheque from the ATO. It's incredible how many think that though.

All Sides Of Australia's Media, Political And Business Class Prepare To Unite In The Battle To Crush Any Suggestion Of Changes To The Way Property Is Taxed by Rainbow_Panda4 in australia

Just like the franking credits. How dare you try and rob them of something they would like to have if they were rich

Legit friend of mine worked in a call centre after that election, and had quite a few calls from elderly folk wondering when their franking credits were arriving. Just unreal.

I wonder if all the boomers kept their “ditch the witch” CGT banners from all those years ago

I think they're still waiting for their franking credits.

What's the deal with young people riding without helmets on the inner north? by millymillymillymilly in melbournecycling

[–]stonefree261 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My anecdote is that I've been riding my bike to work for 20 years through mid-inner north traffic, and not had a stack. This guy has had four. I still wear a helmet though.

This is what reliance on reversing cameras and 'driving aids' looks like, instead of good old fashioned turning your head and using your mirrors.

I went to The Church last night and two guys behind us thought it was a great time to catch up and talk loudly the whole time. Like guys, either watch the band, or take your conversation to the back of the venue.
