    Life is more than about money

    Assuming the Solar for your PPoR (or IP) was say: $5k; how many here would have easy access to that $5k and be happy to shell out for it as well?

    Life is more than about money

    Whilst the tradie and his Mum might appear free and happy to us here on SS - with all our burden of work and debt and bills and accounts etc to juggle each day... I think I'd rather be in my/our collective SS shoes as a life direction, thanks.
