    Freaky Deja Vu !

    I'm considering signing up with a website review service and one of the sites they gave as an example really freaked me out for about 60 seconds, the most stunned I've ever been. The site is called KingofWatersports.com Now I watch my fair share of porn, but this is actually about equipment...

    Anybody here an IP expert ? (not property related)

    Intellectual property, trademarks specifically. I've noticed many businesses in my industry have not registered their names as trademarks. Most only have a domain name and likely registered as a business name. To my knowledge, owning the trademark in the respective class gives the highest...

    No more property investing.

    If investing/trading in residential/commercial property was banned, what would you do? This is assuming you could only hold a single PPOR per household. What's your plan for financial freedom now?

    How to make 100k in your spare time.

    My repeated advice to all the posts relating to any type of limited cash flow/capital situation is always - increase your income. There's no shortage of money in the world, so why not go out and get it? I just had a snap decision yesterday that I'm going to start a fitness clothing range to...

    Guys, which way do you wear your belt?

    I just bought a new belt yesterday and the inside printing and little internal tag seem to suggest the belt should be worn in a clockwise direction. This seemed strange to me as I've always put my belts on in an anti-clockwise direction. Anyway, I put it on anti-clockwise and surprisingly it...

    Do you ever look back at old goals?

    Cleaning my desk this Easter Friday and came across some journals/notes/goals. Back in the day I was listening to Anthony Robins and other stuff just trying to get ahead. My financial goal from 01-01-2004 was to have a net worth of 300k by 01-01-2005. It would have been a tough goal at the time...

    How are maximum building heights determined?

    Just curious, for sloping blocks, how are maximum height levels determined? I'm guessing that it's any point from the natural slope of the land vertically. But what about blocks which have been highly excavated on quite steep sites? Would the benchmark levels be a straight slope from the...

    How much have you made?

    Threads and polls about how long it took to achieve financial involve too many variables to make any significant comparisons. How about a poll specifically on how much capital growth/equity growth you have achieved only via property transactions considering all costs involved, CG tax too if...

    Synthetic Turf - Feedback

    I'm considering this in a PPOR for two small areas of about 50sqm each. Anybody had this installed in recent times? Any good? I don't do mowing, so will this forever solve the problem of knee high grass and weeds? Even though it doesn't grow, does it still require ongoing maintenance to...

    Investing in shares for development projects.

    Does anybody have experience in purchasing shares in property development projects? We're the returns close to expected? Would you do it again? Why or why not? This is purely for a cash flow play, not looking to accumulate more property? Basically it's a way to get committed to larger...

Anybody willing to share a story of a positive outcome for an opportunity you were sceptical or over cautious about for a "too good to be true" situation, but went ahead anyway and came out well in front. Sometimes...

    Swimming Pools Suck! Help Please...

    Hi Guys, We bought a PPOR 12 months ago and have not learnt to use the pool equipment thoroughly yet, very time poor. We've only used it a few times in the past year. I'm a pretty handy and practical guy, but with no previous experience with pools, it's all very confusing to me. I am not a...

    Hi Guys, Just checking if a Certificate of Classification (Form 11) is the same as a Certificate of Occupancy, properties are in Brisbane. It's not something I do everyday, so a confirmation would be great. We had a Certificate of Classification issued today and just want to know if this...
