Oh my – here we are, knee-deep in electioneering ahead of next week’s Federal Election, and half-truths and untruths are flying thick and fast. Do share some of yours too as you see/hear them.

I rather like someone’s suggestion “That parties found to be telling blatant lies during an election campaign should be brought to justice!” I can’t see…[Read more]

As the clanging bell of “Climate change” becomes more and more strident, the more I believe we all need to take a cold shower and re-look at some facts.

One fact I recall (about the time that we were fighting “chlorofluorocarbons in aerosols, and the hole in the ozone layer”) was that the icy poles on Mars were observed to be melting (or had…[Read more]

Hi Paul,
Thank you for sharing that. They will fit into one of these two categories:-

Yeah, about 8 years too late !! Reviving old posts to spam us is not appreciated, Dean. This “local cleaning service” just happens to be your own. No surprise there I guess, but obviously disingenuous, so I doubt anyone will be calling you.

Give us a break mate !!

Hi ALJO,
That sounds pretty awful. One would hope someone could direct your steps if you talked to a Technical type within Telstra…..

But wait, I hear wireless can be just as quick these days – maybe look at the capability of receiving Internet via a Mobile phone at that place and forget the ADSL altogether. Especially as (once NBN…[Read more]

I appreciated his work so much that I immediately shelled out a few dollars to purchase his book, titled “Mirrors and Mazes”. I can’t wait for it to arrive.

Woohoo – it’s here !! And now that I am able, let me state a few more thoughts from this book that might turn a few hypothesese on their heads – like this one:-

Absolutely with you re “Caring for the environment” Jason. I’m sure we can be doing lots better in that regard too – i.e. don’t clear timbered areas to build homes. Leave the trees there and build homes where there are no (or few) trees. Don’t be in a rush to knock down old homes – the wood therein has captured a bunch of carbon, so fix it up…[Read more]

Hi SBH,
Back to my earlier comment of mine:-

it sounds like I am asking more questions than I am answering, but that is purely to start you thinking around the whole subject, rather than just concentrating on “do I sell this or not”? There are many good reasons why you should and/or shouldn’t. Becoming more aware of ALL your available optio…

Landlord Insurance perhaps? Of course, you might be thinking of some kind of Body Corp Insurance (i.e. to insure the common areas as well as the individual units).

I am quite unfamiliar as I’ve only ever owned private homes – perhaps someone else can come up with a better answer….

Hi SBH,
Re the “Rentvesting”, you might want to use the Search feature (click on Forums, then “Search”). One result I found from doing that led to this topic:-

That might prove useful to you.

You also ask this:-
