    Balance between work and investment

    I haven't even got my first IP yet and have found it rather time consuming just getting my structures and loan facilities in place. Must admit it's the research and self-education that take most of the time. Fortunately I generally have plenty of free time at work and reasonably flexable hours...

    Trump & Kiyosaki

    Must admit I'd seen the game on ebay a few times but they were selling like hotcakes and i always got done by one of those last second bidders and their ebay bidding software :( So is it good fun, money well spent and how long or times played before you were able to escape the rat race???

    Trump & Kiyosaki

    I've read a few Kiyosaki books and while it's true the info is not totally relevant to Australia the values and principals as a general are fantastic. They are good to revisit whenever you may doubt yourself from where you want to go in a financial sense. I also enjoyed a couple of John R...

    Managed Funds

    Enjoyed the read. Will past it on. Fortunately he doesn't have debt problems, YET to discover Credit Cards or take much notice of Harvey Norman ads!!! Still got a couple of mates who could really do with having a read of this thread. Probably won't change anything but you can only try :)

    Managed Funds

    Thanks for the reply's so far. Food for thought as usual. Must admit I could do with showing him a little of what I've done over the years. From a simplicity point of view I will look to get him onto something like the Dragon Direct and see where it takes him.

    Managed Funds

    Cheers The Y-man. I'd certainly put him in the "Move Towards" group. As i said in the previous reply, I'm just trying to develop a plan he will buy into. Simply, just leaving money in his savings account and trying to built it doesn't work for him and from all the stuff I've been reading...

    Managed Funds

    After all he's only 19, so he's not totally inclined to be thinking about the future too much. Must admit I wasn't at that age but I didn't have a decent income either :) Anyhow if I can present a good plan to him I'm sure he would be into it. I'm not talking about huge sums each week, maybe...

    Managed Funds

    Hey guys, just looking for some feedback. I couldn't find any existing threads so I'll ask with this one. I'm attempting to get my younger brother he's 19 on a path other than pay in one hand and by the end of the week, nothing left. I was looking at something along the lines of a managed...

    I lost my wallet

    I'm starting to feel a little guilty after reading this thread. I remember as a kid finding $50 in the city it was just blowning around on the footpath I picked it up looked around and there was no one in site. I thought all my Christmas's had come at once. Couldn't say I thought about handing...

    Are ur investments safe?

    Yep. I remember a year or so back my sister and her hubby were cleaning their house to move out as they had bought somewhere else so they were converting it to an IP. Anyhow they needed a quick feed put some chips in the over but a plastic bread board stuck to the bottom of the tray and in the...

    Internet cabling for a new house. Which type?

    If as the orginal question quotes the IT infrastructure was to be installed during the house build process and the price is right fair enough. But from the IT future proofing point of view I have to agree with WinstonWolfe. Could be money down the drain before you know it. I still remember 10...

    What's your wealth score

    Woohoo, score of 459 and the average is 456... So I'm just average, like I didn't already know that :D Still at least it's something different to filling out the crossword at the back of the tv guide on a sunday morning. Personal Assets = cars, home furniture, electronic equipment I...
