    Buying In Indonesia

    Oh wow, you're well informed. I live there in my childhood during the 1998 riot and several years onwards. House were destroyed and the girls were raped and killed. Not a great memory (apart from not needing to go to school). It might be different now, but my memory on how Indonesian born...

    Airbnb and Strata

    Security risk will be my concern as well if owners within my building is doing a short term BnB list. Regular tenants are listed and accounted for by building manager, but even then we have things broken and stolen within common area. If people are changing every couple of days it'll be a lot...

    Neighbour abuse and defamation

    Some friends got this as well. I think the perpetrator must have been so bored and have a lot of time to care about other people's business.

    Medicare Levy

    I'd personally get one, especially when your income attract Medicare Surcharge. I use the insurance mainly on the extra - yearly no gap dental treatment, this year - glasses, the remedial massages, acupuncture and osteo (75% back) :p

    Buying In Indonesia

    The above are very important. I am not saying that it's impossible to make money there. However the culture, system, legality, ethics etc there are very different compared to how it is in Australia. Fail to understand the above and you will likely get in trouble.

    Neighbour abuse and defamation

    Keep all the defamatory emails. Keep log on all the abuse. Save money then go sue them :p I assume the aggrieved party didn't do anything wrong tho? Why do this person specifically target this unit owner?

    Clueless unsupportive mother

    I tell my parents every now and them, and their responses are similar, usually out of concern. So I just said, "Understand your concern, don't worry, I've got that covered" and repeat. No further details needed unless they ask :rolleyes:

    So what did you sacrifice?

    Uhm, not being able to see positive balance in my bank account? I don't drink I don't go to pubs I don't go partying I go holiday within means I eat out within means I choose area I can afford to live None of the above considered sacrifice though. Just common sense.

    Need to change this bathtub?

    Just a quick update. After a lot of consideration, we opt for resurface. There are just too little time to arrange a total rip out. Due to the condition of the tub, we will need to do reno on the bathroom in 1-2 year time or so when the tub gives out :( On the flip side, I have tenant...
