Each one is putting a little into my pocket each week and have had very good capital growth. So where is that wrong? I have a long term strategy and so far it is working very well, I am happy. Each to his own!

The desktop has SP1 and all security updates, no probs. The laptop will not accept SP1 (get error “AssocIsDangerous”, and continually loops from boot to shutdown!!). It has all security updates and Ezrent installed without a hitch.

Gee, you sure have a lot of posts in such a short time!! This and positive gearing has me rather perplexed. People that are neutral geared I assume they mean the rent covers all outgoings including interest, council rates etc. Now as I understand it back in 1985, the Worlds Greatest Treasurer, disallowed interest on borrowed money to…[Read more]

A lot of “mum & dad” investors I know, who have become a bit disillusioned with other forms of investing have used the equity in their home to purchase one or more IP’s in the hope that it may help them in their retirement. All I know rely on negative gearing to make it worthwhile! Most have…[Read more]

Have 4 IP’s now plus our PPOR. Would love to increase my collection but have run out of equity in our PPOR!! Not enough IP equity yet to borrow against them.If I could get the finance I would keep going. It just amazes me how people do keep going! Tell me the secret.
