Wow, I echo the sentiments of everyone who has already posted here. I joined early in my investment journey, and learned plenty from the likes of Ruby, PhilH, Jamie, Sim, and met some very wonderful people. Got to meet Ian at one of the B.I.G get togethers, a lovely man. Spent many sleepless...

Thanks Chris for your updates and contributions. Jim

Thanks Chris, I will be in touch with you this week, I got Nick to set up my trust yet received the letter from YOU, don't know why this was the case ? Is it imperative that I get the deed amended BEFORE June 30 or as long as it is before I put my tax return in ? JIM

Meant to post this here but posted in another thread by mistake Some here are talking about MSG's deeds from a few years ago needing amended. I have one from 2004, am I up for changes so radical from the original that it will render my existing deed as unrecognizable or only a few amendments ...

Yep, Used Teo's on my VZ Commodore, fan-bloody-tastic !!!!!!!!! Got 75000 kms on them and have only just put a new set of Teo's on again. Would not use anything else. Highly recommend them. JIM

Get-togethers Hi guys, A few of us forum regulars tried to get regular Sunny Coast get-togethers happening in the early 2000's without much success. I would be keen to join you now and again for coffee and chat. Can't make it to this one due to work commitments, but do you normally have them...

Nambour I have been spruiking the positives of investing in Nambour for many years now. Here are just some posts where I threw Nambour into the mix as an option. HERE and HERE and HERE and HERE and HERE and HERE and HERE Good luck. JIM

Tragic News I just read in the paper that David was killed on Friday while competing in a long distance ride in the US. He was finishing the final leg of a ride completing 11000 kms in 11 days, when a deer jumped out in front of the bike. David died doing what he loved. Never met the guy but...

I invest in Nambour, only live half an hour up the road from there and definitely feel I made the right decision. It gets a tick in every box as far as I'm concerned. Great growth, great yield, great infrastructure. Schools, rail, hospitals, all of the above. Also invest in Kings Beach...

Hi TC, Great photos mate, we have recently gotten right into Kayaking with a passion. Got 4 of them, Wendy & I got one each and also 1 each for the kids. We have taken the kids on some tamer paddles on Borumba Dam but Wendy & I have recently done a couple of trips down the Mary River from Vic...

So, get an electrician in and get the certificate off him, not only will he check earthing etc, you'll have peace of mind knowing that the place is safer. Problem solved. Gee, I wish all problems were this easy, Now, to solve world hunger ;) JIM

With regards to Nambour, I have IP's in both Nambour & Kings Beach (Caloundra area), Both have performed extremely well for me over the past 6 years, I have been telling anyone who would listen for years now about Nambour as an ideal location for investment. As others have stated in this thread...

I've always stayed as boring old Jimmyjamjars, although most on here and the chat room call me JJJ or nasty stuff ;) JIM

My first IP, which I still own in Kings Beach, is in Upper Gay Terrace JIM

There's more than one cause of shingles, I let a lot of cr@p at work really get to me and it built up anger until a valve blew. Trouble was, when the sores first erupted on the surface, I took myself to the GP and was mis-diagnosed as a staph infection. They say that you minimise the chance of...

I got shingles of the face and eye in August last year, nearly lost the eyesight in my right eye as it grabbed hold of the Trigeminal nerve, absolute agony and wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, not that I have any enemies :D Got pumped full of IV Acyclovir, 3 vials a day for a week then a...

You would be surprised at just what banks will ask for in differing times. We took out a loan on our first home on the Gold Coast in 1990, it was a rough house in a good street. In the contract, the bank stipulated that we renovate the dwelling within a 6 month timeframe. Twas ANZ. We did and...

I can't speak for anyone else but I started to tune out when the D&G brigade invaded. I got so sick and tired of every new thread getting hijacked with sad sack doomsayers predicting the world was coming to an end etc. I tune in now and again but I think you will find that this is my first post...

Fran, I can understand your plight and feel for you. I know it probably feels, from some of the replies you've received so far, that you were being attacked, but, trust me, they are just giving you advice in your best interests. This is what I love best about the good ship SS, experience in all...
