    pessimistic sods

    Bite your lip. Let them speak their mind as you do yours. But the moment they criticise you, just say enough to play your hand, don't let the conversation turn ugly, as if it does, people can get bitter quickly. Your end result will show who is right. :)

    Inner west: from where to where???

    I always understood as the Inner west going no longer than Leichhardt. But yes I've seen REAs claim Homebush, and Strathfield as the Inner west.

    Sydney property prices set to double

    No I don't believe in this. Terrible journalism and just something to annoy the general public with. Prices will not go up forever for every home.

    Timber Flooring

    Depending on the building, you are most likely to not be permitted to install solid timber floors, only floating timber floors at the most. Don't worry, these floating timber floors can come pre-finished so that you only need a wet mop to clean it, no harsh cleaning detergents as this can wear...

    Update: thought I'd share these pictures. Glad to finally have it done, 2 months since I started this thread. Just goes to show that laziness can really demotivate you. If anyone ever wants to do stenciling, good luck, because it is a great idea at the time but actually putting in the effort...

    Yup, we've been working on it on and off, more off than on lately because we've been lazy. :p I bought the stencils and its all DIY. Yeah we thought about that, however since there is very little space, that wall where the phone is, is occupied by the dining table. If I added the bench...

    Just a black feature wall :) All other walls are white. But it'll actually be a feature/stencil wall. You hope correct! :p 1) Yup he sure did, it's the brown wood beading as shown in the other, more close pics. 2) I didn't have to. He did everything without me specifying. Very...

    Thanks for the kind words from others. :) --- - Timber flooring was $4340, includes jatoba floating timber product and installation, plus removal of carpet. Painting was $2000 if I remember correctly. I wanted jarrah and it was only an extra $17 per sqm but it was solid timber and not...

    Yup, the bedroom feature wall which will have the stenciling is black. :) Depends on the by laws, walls nope but floors yes. The meeting was to be held on the 15th of April, but was delayed twice until towards the end of May.

    My apartment story - 2 months later...

    Hi everyone, I received keys to my CBD apartment in early April (purchased August last year - tenant contract ended) and began renovating (walls and floors). After waiting 2 months for body corporate to approve my request to change the floor coverings, this is the end result. What I learnt...

    On Socialising

    I have something similar. I used to always want to go out and have fun. But ever since I started my career my parents no longer paid for my recreational activities. Realising how much it cost, I have dumbed it down a bit and became more practical, more mature. I still go out and have fun...

    What did your Parents Teach you about Wealth?

    My parents taught me that earning money is not easy. Real life is complicated, and your job is the most important thing, it's your lifeline and is above your wife/gf. Save as much as you can now, and save your later years in life for pleasure. You are not supposed to be having fun at your...

    Nice Suburbs in Sydney around $700k

    Whoops, sorry! I didn't realise that you were after a house. Wahroonga isn't too bad, starting from $700k though. Frenchs Forest would be a nice choice.
