Well, no prices had never dropped significantly in the US ever, same goes with Australia generally speaking. I have been through many doubling of house prices and doubled my money five times at least. The price fluctuations in the US right now are not boring, many have lost all that they have...

It is a good thing to be prepared and not to be greedy or blinkered by the herd mentality. I don`t come here often anymore, and didn`t drop in to argue just to give my honest opinion, I dont have a crystal ball and timelines are always difficult but what I have said in the last 12 months or...

Prices will fall just as they have in the US and for many of the same reasons. Availability of credit globally, the internet and the general perception that owning real estate can lead anyone to riches has driven prices up, they must fall. I believe we will get all the answers to the...

Another thing, never plead for buyers and never look anxious no matter what you will get nothing but lowballed, buyers will start to look at all the reasons not to buy it.

It should sell fast if what I have heard is correct, in that melbourne homes are selling for more than asking price, or has this changed, I thought buyers were lining up down there?. My advise is if you really want to sell don`t muck around, drop it to 600k, sooner rather than later.

Are Jack Nicklaus and the others still at the top of thier game, if not why not?. Is there no area of thier life that they are disappointed with?. If these golfers have great lifes imo it is due to the fact that they do the things that work for them, which may all be completely different...

Sure they do, everyone seemed to buy into the OPM dream, stop work and watch the dollars roll in, I had a few years off so I am not complaining, but it is right back to work these days, you bet. That 300k unit is actually worth probably less than half that amount in reality, same with the car...

All true of course. Yes you can do extraordinary things, but......you can`t do everything........of course, this can be construed as a negative but it is as plain as the nose on our face. A great example is the fact that many overacheivers have terrible personal relationships due to a lack of...

Yep. It`s understandable too why people don`t want to hear it, or at least acknowledge it openly but I 100% agree with Schiff.

Rudd a talk show host?, you tell a joke!, the prime minister is intelligent and likable but he is about as animated as a fence post.

Yes they have been busy and because of it we have learned a heck of a lot in a short time, some of these issues had to be looked into, I honestly believe Rudd has been great for this country, he has a go!, admits he was wrong and has tried damn hard to follow his word which we all know is an...

I respect your opinion and can see why you could look at it that way but I actually think Rudd is the best pm we`ve had in years, it just happens that he came into power when the world financial mess finally reared its ugly head. I think Obama has had a hard run as well but I don`t see any...

Rudd knows what is coming and he wants out. Is mongo in the house?.

http://blog.mises.org/11080/chinese-ghost-town/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emzKAa9rKgU I think china is the largest ponzi scheme in the world. What would stop china using thier own printed dollars to stock gold and commodities, therefore rendering thier own dollar and other...

Costs of living are getting out of hand. Seems the more assets/cash someone has the more worried they are. Remove credit cards and spending would be down bigtime, people are living on credit more than ever what does this tell us?, there is a credit bubble in this country so huge it is a...
