    RSS Feed Format

    Hi Sim' I was wondering if there is a setting that you can apply to alter the header info in the RSS feeds that the forum supplies. Another that I subscribe to, has date of post and number of replies. This is handy when following updates to threads. See http://forums.aanet.com.au/rss.php?t=1...

    There was a thread the other day about helping your kids into property investment, giving them money etc. It got me thinking to one of the methods used quite a lot, and the tax implications.... If a parent was to loan their kids money (eg $100K from a LOC) to help out with the purchase of a...
