OK good ideas

hit a sore note did we, were they your cousins? :D Yep I lost my job recently but I have been looking hard and as I wrote in another post both of my jobs were taken by your fellow Chinese countrymen, some young Chinese students working for cheap rates. As for the 50% subsidy thing, I think...

wearing a burqa would be an ideal way to go under cover for criminal activities. For example a guy could walk into a bank and scope it out for a job in full disguise. Or a Petrol station, ATM etc. On the other hand I don't like the idea of taking away freedom of rights. I had to laugh at the...

ha, well I actually meant painting on canvas but yeah if my property needed painting then I would enjoy that too.

I have pretty screwed up ideas on all this, for example I applied for 2 jobs recently but both of the jobs went to young Chinese students as they were faster and accepted cheap rates. Now I think I'm useless and too old to get a job anymore. I hate Australia day and flag waving patriotism, I...

Nice stats. I guess investors should be looking around the suburbs at the top of the 2nd page for best growth prospects to invest.

It's funny how you troll me and come up with lies about Australians in the Philippines not allowing non Australians into bars. I pointed out to you that is not the case and I gave an example of that. On top of that another poster offered you $50 if you can name one bar but of course you didn't...

I actually lived in Bondi for a few years, I never liked it really. it was too pretentious and stuck up as in if your not young (under 35) and cool people don't even look at you. On the other hand I liked Paddington, even if it had a lot more money, it was just nice and relaxed there.

I travel a lot and I go to the Philippines regularly. I have never ever seen an Aussie only bar there where non Aussies where not allowed in or welcomed. In fact it's the opposite, I know of Aussie owned bars in Cebu and Koreans regularly came in, they were the minority in the rock bar but they...

I was in western Sydney once and I was verbally abused by a bogan girl and she even spat on me. All I wanted to do was get past her on the escalator. She told me to go back to my own country, I yelled out that I was born here you stupid bogan #### and she much have been so raciest that she even...

My friend has an apartment in Georgetown, Newcastle. The prices of units in same block are rising quite well she said and she gets very good rent money too. I think Chinese investors are looking there now with the Sydney market starting to look risky. There is also huge city beatification...

If had to bet on the Sydney house prices I would say they will keep rising but around the middle of next year there will be a huge fall or correction. That is based on a number of things I have heard recently.

I was not purposely saving but I started making great money all of a sudden and I thought I better do something with it so I looked into property. A month later after researching I applied for an advance on a loan so I could look around. I was approved and the rest is history.

I guess the Sydney and Melbourne prices will at some point come to a stand still and go down to be corrected. Would it be possible that outer smaller cities from Sydney and Melbourne would see more rises where investors look at other options, especially the Chinese that they will be reading all...

ah well, yeah this was what I was thinking but I was optimistic that it might have meant I would get it towards the purchase cost. I was thinking I could pick up cheap land, 1 per year, lay a few bricks and sit on them but as the saying goes if it looks to be good to be true it is. :D
