Hi,

Good point about the refund policy. I’ve asked Alister to look into it, but the 14 day part is hard coded onto all products in the shop area and we need to change this asap.

The ‘No Hard Feelings’ refund applies.

Hi,

Welcome to the forums. It would be great if you could contribute your experience and knowledge as I’m sure you have plenty to share!

To answer your two questions:

Q1: Re: Socio-economic profile.

I doubt anyone can give you a definitive answer although I’m sure many people have an opinion.

It is true that some wrappers target those who…[Read more]

Indeed – the same could be said for vendor financing.

Hi,

Like everything, wraps included, you need to weigh up the risk vs. benefit.

It seems this is a higher-risk strategy that will suit people, but not all. TT ran with one perspective, but the counter argument could probably have been presented with as much enthusiasm on a different night. Who knows?

Get educated and make your own informed…[Read more]

Indeed – money cannot buy happiness.

But it can buy back time that you’d otherwise have to allocate to working in a job.

Comfort zones are detrimential to investing progress.

Several excellent points:

Hi,

Thanks for the responses so far. I’m delighted you enjoy the newsletters and hope that they prompt thinking through some of the important questions that need to be considered to be a property investing success.

Yes, I agree that purpose should actually come before plan.

I pay 0% CGT as there is no CGT to pay!

…you’ll then be paying 100% CGT?

No. You actually pay 0% CGT [wink]

Hi,

When you understand the tax consequences it’s not so bad.

CGT should almost never have been relevant for wraps as the 50% discount only applies if you owned the property for more than 12 months.

Fair comment, which is why the post has been removed.

Apologies that it took a few days to get to it.

Hi,

The firewall I use at home is Sygate Professional… I find it very good and it’s free (for home use) from http://www.tucows.com/

Do a search on firewalls and I think it is a few pages in.

Hi Jay,

The policy is this way as a previously more liberal approach was blatantly abused.

We feel this is fair. It gives the participant a chance to see what’s on offer and also sets a deadline for making a decision.

As for comments by others – if you feel the cost is too high then it’s simple… don’t come.

Have a great day.

Hi,

I’ve been to one of Ron’s seminars in the States and it was quite good.

Be careful though, as he has been marketing seminars where a representative of his speaks rather than the genuine article himself.

Oh, and expect plenty of sales pitch.

Hi,

Actually, my recollection was that stamp on all property purchases was going to be done away with once GST came in.

Oh well, a part concession 4 years down the track is better than a kick in the pants.

Hi,

It’s very simple… focus on the cash and not the profit.

As an investor I want to know how much in for how much back. ROI is based on profit which can be manipulated, cashflow is cashflow.

Those that can do,
Those that can’t gossip.

I’ve always said that I’ll be happy to be judged by the result of the MAP. Remember, we’re half way through so I encourage all (good and bad) to reserve final judgement until the end.

Still, I’ll write about the MAP in the next newsletter as this seems to be a hot topic of discussion.

Hi,

Just a point on this equity issue.

Remember that I advocate +ve cashflow investing, so I prize cashflow much more than equity (which is usually a factor of capital growth).

The short answer though is no, there is no $1m in equity… but there is enough cashflow for people to begin to get a taste for financial freedom.
