I went to an introductory workshop which was OK, but I balked at the $7-$9,000 cost of the rest. The emphasis is on action and learning strategies on all types of investment. I found it a bit too “in your face” for my liking.
Hi Soleil,
You might consider contacting the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman who can look at Telstra behaviours and cause them to retract inappropriate behaviour.
My recent experiences with ombudsmen in other areas has not been necessarily positive, but they are there to investigate complaints against Telstra so you never know.
A very simple, yet amazingly powerful tip I heard once was to adopt a “no coin transaction” principle.
How it works, is that you never make a transaction using coins, always notes, regardless of what it is. Any change you get, you put in your piggybank. Even if you need coin for a parking meter, never use coin from your pocket, buy something from a shop using a note, then use change from that.
Depending on how many transactions you do in a day, you can find yourself collecting coin at a rate of $10 to $50 a week without missing it.
I empty my change into my bedside drawer, and after three months, I found I had accumulated over $200 which I didn’t expect.
