lost everything I invested and stupid me did it twice

I agree. I have been to your seminar. I think you are a brave man. I could never take the responsibility of handling other people's money as no matter how matter what...even when they understand all the risks involved, I would feel bad if I couldn't perform to their expectations. Your...

oops...how longs is this thread? guess I better stop now. I have no idea what's really going on! why isn't he paying rent? shouldn't he be grateful and pay them back? parents have to take action.

being generous...u never know..one small gesture could make a huge difference to someone's life. You never know. I don't do it because of anything I want in return. Maybe because I'm the oldest child and I only have 1 brother but I have always taken a motherly role Maybe because I want...

I only read the intro post....I guess there's a lot more involved and it's something that has happened over a long period of time. It's like her bro is still wrapped up in cotton wool. It's partly the mum's fault, maybe her parenting style..we don't know. Maybe secretly the mum loves that he's...

???? Not really...not ours anyway and there are people in our family a lot more better off than us. Rather than being resentful, if you love someone and they are doing well then shouldn't you be happy for them and be supportive? Maybe it's a cultural thing.

hmmmm...life is short and money is made to be spent and enjoyed! also, is it really worth confrontation over something so minor? it's only an iPad. If you want to talk about Apple products, well they are worth every cent. I can't live without it. Things I hate most is slow computers and...

RIP Steve what an amazing guy..56 is way too young but he lived to his fullest potential. We are huge Apple fans here. I owned the 1st generation iPhone I think 1 yr before it was even released in Oz. Let's see... 3 x iPhones, 2 x Macbook Pros, a x iPad and Apple Tv! Even non Apple fans...

investor - Parkinson is a great suburb! we built there on Mt Archer Rd and last year built a house in Calamvale on Benheim St, behind the Calamvale high school. Fantastic location, just walk across the road to school..yet school isn't visible from the house and down the road from woolies...

invstor - yeah it is a great area. I already live in Kuraby and we have lived in this area since I moved to Bris almost 10 yrs ago. I may have built nicer, bigger houses elsewhere but for me the area is more important. I never get emotional about properties but it's different since this is a...

learnt a new word today! it is a statistical outlier

that's pretty normal in bris lol it's a really nice suburb and that's one of the best culdesacs probably in the suburb.

thanks YPG - I forgot to mention we got it at $537.5k a lot of my friends are local and none of them can believe it. The neighbours who are turned up at the auction were shocked too.. They didn't seem too happy..maybe worried it will de-value their property.

Rolf I appreciate your reply! I know but we were clueless. We only came across the property today and they were starting auction within mins. We were still registering when they started and only because the opening bid was ridiculously low. Can I make appt with you? we need finance asap...

Has anyone had any experience in this? I am so confused right now. On one hand I got an amazing buy (will be my ppor) and on the other hand I am freaking out about auction terms! -on monday we have to pay 10% deposit and I can only get 5% -settlement unconditional 30 days So I...

I cant sit still. Really want to help..any businesses that need help to move things? can store things at my house etc I think ppl would want to save as much as possible from the flood. Wished we had a trailer.

does the estimate include the drop in from the exchange to every home or do we have to pay for this? If so, I can't see us using fibre because I could never go back to a fixed line. We all have laptops, there's no 'study' or even a 'desk'. Have not had a desktop in about 3yrs. It just gets...

just spray with round up. we used tarp which works well.

Yes we have all been bullied..though different extent but it's a good point to make. Bullying is rife in both public and private. In private schools, they are usually more willing to expel a student causing trouble rather than losing a handful of fee paying students that has done nothing wrong...

the reason why my dad sent us to Oz when we were lil was mainly because I really had no chance in malaysia...pretty dumb and lazy and I was 8y.o! In Asia, it's the norm to have tuition every single day and sometimes weekends. For every single subject and starting at well grade 1. Ifs...
