Hi,
I also have all three products mentioned, and I wouldn’t want to recommend any of them over the others – they’re all excellent products, and for very different purposes!
Sorry to not give you a simple answer!

Thanks heaps to everyone who’s contributed here, especially to Don and Liz and to Redwing.
For several yrs now I’ve thought “I should sit down and write down my goals” but then I never do it. And look – I’m now exactly where I was several yrs ago (well – I’m talking financially only here! I have done one or two things in the meantime!).
My wife and I are now just starting to make a move in property investing, so I figure that this is the second best time to do some goal setting (the best time was several yrs ago!).
So thanks again guys – I look forward to using the info you have provided to help us!
Regards,
Adam
PS. Happy new year to all of you! I hope that ’06 brings you much happiness and success!

I don’t personally have any experience in this area, but there is a great website based out of Dalby in Qld that might answer some of your questions and seems like a good starting point. It is http://www.dalbyremovalhomes.com.au
Another is based out of Loganholme and is http://www.drakehomes.com.au
Enjoy and Good Luck!

Interesting article – thanks.

Hi Mabbot,
The above comments are all excellent. My two bob’s worth:
– for the moment concentrate on the wedding. Two reasons – it is a heck of a lot for one person to plan on their own (and if you work together it will make it that much more special for YOU on the day! There’s no rule set in stone saying that it is ONLY the bride’s day!), and secondly if you show interest and excitement in this (her “thing”), then down the track she may be more likely to show interest and excitement in PI (your “thing”).
– At some stage after the wedding and honeymoon (or maybe even during the honeymoon, if you decide to have one!), both of you should read “The Wealthy Barber”. It is a very readable book, written like a novel, about what anyone and everyone can do now to be wealthy in the yrs to come. This was the book that fired my wife up to read and research further. After this one, I’d suggest Rich Dad Poor Dad (to expand her reality), one of Steve’s (also because they’re very readable and not too daunting, but full of great inspiring stuff), and then some more of the Rich Dad series (perhaps Retire Young Retire Rich, and Real Estate Riches). I guarantee that once she’s read all, or even one or two, of these books, she’ll be firing on all cylinders, and chomping at the bit to get out there! That’s where my wife is now – so I can vouch for this path. It does work!
Best of luck with all this Mabbot. For now though, concentrate on that wedding! It will (hopefully!) be the only one you’ll ever have, so make it AWESOME!
Regards,
Adam

Go the Far Side!!! You’ve gotta love it!

Thanks Steve. New format looks good so far. Of course it’ll take us all a while to learn our way around the new layout, but that’s always the case with change and if we feared that then we’d never advance would we!
Onwards and upwards!

Hi jenwren,
Without knowing the details, and certainly without knowing much about property, I would still caution you about doing something that you feel may have “moral issues”. Sure, you may get a “win” in the short term, but I think one of the most important things in your life is how you feel about yourself. Will you feel good about whatever it is you’re attempting to do here? If so, go ahead and do it. If not I would advise against doing it, no matter what the financial incentive.
My two bob’s worth – I’m certainly not trying to persuade you one way or the other. As I said, I don’t know the details of the deal.
Best of luck with it!

Thanks Derek – I didn’t know about this! I’ll certainly give it a go.
Delboy, JTW and Richard – did you know about these meetings? What do you think? Maybe I’ll see you there!
Cheers,
Adam

Okay – I understand that I may be getting ahead of myself here (I tend to do this!), but I think this is a great opportunity, and perhaps if we just draw a line in the sand and make a date then some more people might come out of the woodwork…
So – how does either Mon 28 Nov or Wed 30 Nov at 7pm sound? Either at my brother’s office (see above) or at another venue agreed upon?
Any takers?
Adam

Hi again,
I just spoke to my brother, who owns a business in Kenmore (Bris western suburbs), and he would be happy for us to use his conference room for our meetings. It’s not so big – perhaps 20 people max – but I think it would suffice at least for the first few.
I would imagine that once monthly would be a good start, and Mon, Wed and Thu evenings are best for us.
Any other thoughts anyone?

Hi all,
My wife and I live in Spring Hill Brisbane. We’d be very keen to get together every month or so, especially if it is nearby (we don’t have a car!). However, we would certainly make an effort to get there if reqd. Delboy – do you have a venue in mind?
Adam B-C

No car – we had a 2000 Commodore VT, but it was costing an arm and a leg in loan payments and fuel, so got rid of it in 2003. Best move ever. We live walking distance from my wife’s work, and walking distance to the train to my work, and walking distance to downtown Bris. So all is good! The amount we save is just phenomenal! We do know though that it can’t last forever – when we have kids we will certainly get one. But one thing it taught us is that we will never get a big, new, expensive car again, and we will only ever pay cash in future too.

Everyone,
If anyone else has bought the Wrap Kit maybe you could put your comments here? There’s been no word from Nathan.
Cheers,

So come on Marisa – what happened?!? Any news?
Best of luck!

Thanks very much to all of you who replied. It’s at least a psychological comfort to know that others feel as I do and that I’m not being unreasonable.
I guess I was kind of hoping for someone to get on here and say “oh yes, according to xyz legislation, flyscreens must be installed if requested”(!). Oh well – it still could happen!
Thanks again,
AdamDon’t let life get in the way of living.
Nathan,
I’ve been considering purchasing the Wrap Kit, based partly on the understanding that you have access to Steve’s email for a year, but from your last 3 messages it seems that you actually don’t. Is this the case? Have you tried contacting Steve? What’s the story? How are you finding the Wrap Kit apart from this?
Cheers,

Hi everyone,
This is my first entry on the forum (I’ve been observing for a while!). Great forum and excellent resource for investors.
I agree with Ronny – this deal does sound too good to be true. Can you tell us more about it Doug? What do others think of it?
Cheers,
Adam
I’ve just moved this one to “Exclusively Property” because it gets more coverage there
