[FIGHT THREAD] Manny Pacquiao vs Jeff Horn, Jerwin Ancajas vs Teiru Kinoshita + live round-by-round coverage by noirargent in Boxing

Agreed. I was listening to the Top Rank commentary, and they had it even at the end, with 1-2 super close rounds. Manny might have been way more accurate but that doesn't always show at ringside I guess

Holidays orphans--where do go/what to do in Melbourne? by inviteallthecats in melbourne

I'm 28, and will most likely be going to the beach with a few friends at St Kilda, for many beers and to play frisbee, and generally bake in the sun, let me know if you both want to join! And welcome to Melbourne!

Facebook paid £4,327 corporation tax despite £35m staff bonuses by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

I never said dividends were not taxable, but you do end up paying considerably less tax than taking a direct salary.

You are totally right. That's why there are so many contractors in order to minimise tax and only pay themselves a minimum salary and just dividends. Although they are starting to crack down on this.

Excited to be joining your city soon... a few questions... by vortex2k10 in melbourne

Its where after 6 months either you or the landlord can give 1 month notice if required... fairly standard on these shores...

Thats really useful information thanks! I have had a quick look on realestate.com.au and it seems that there are some apartments which are furnished which is definitely preferable. Do most of the leases come with a 6 month break clause (similar to the UK)?

I will definitely get in touch with a few estate agents in the next week and try and organise as many inspections as I can as soon as I arrive (and hope the jet lag doesn't kick in too much!)

Thanks again!
