Simply? Wayne’s a lucky bloke if he has a lazy $225,000 sitting around that he can plonk into his loan!

Yes, tounge was planted somewhat firmly in cheek, ….but seriously he could possibly sell another IP and consolidate.

You could simply pay out half the loan and that would halve your interest bill making it cash flow neutral.

An early 80s road bike. It has only one speed and has only a front brake. It is very fast, efficient, low maintence and helps keep me fit. It cost about $250 dollars to build – most of the cost was in the tyres.

Faster than a car for most trips in metro Melbourne, and spanks most other bikes on the road.

I’m a member of this younger generation who have only seen the upside of things, but I actually think in a way we are actually doing it tough compared to the last few generations.

Sure.. luxuries are very very cheap compared to what they used to be just a few years ago, but guess what? The necessaties such as housing are more expensive.

In Victoria I understand that if you don’t register your bond with the RTBA you can be fined an amount comparable the the FHOG. Might want to think about that too…

I care..

Perhaps I am naiive, but I have always thought that a low cost of living was a good thing. I thought a low cost of living meant high wealth. Good for individuals and good for communites as a whole. I thought this was all fairly self evident.

So I was surpised to learn a few years ago, that not only there were people who thought rising…[Read more]

Wed, 14 Apr 2004 04:42:59 +0000

For what it’s worth…

use the ol compound interst formula:

p x i^n

p=principal
i=interest per year (or time period for which interest is calculated)
n=number of years

So in ten years the equivalent of 100k, assuming 2%pa change is:

100,000 x 1.02^10 = 121,899.44
