Just a quick farewell to you all. And to those who were curious about what I did , here’s the breakdown of my last couple of years, which was build on a base of about $140k to start with in around mid 2005.Part owner in an IT consulting company start up – Sold my share for $400,000 18 months ago net after CGT (60k CGT in to super).  Recently sold…[Read more]

BTH why didn't you pay out the $20k on one day and then pay the balance on the next?

I was under the impression that the final figure used to calculate the economic cost was based upon the amount owing minus any allowance for additional payments over the term. There are institutions that do this, but it seems not all. And I did…[Read more]

By all means have ambition, but it needs to be  tempered with an understanding of your limitations (financial, intelligence, disposition to things like risk, etc).  Some people will never make it so long as they have a hole in their ar$e and some are so hapless they jeopardise what limited prospects they have with dumb decisions.

There is a good chance there will be a dramatic decline in certain sectors of the market (although certainly not 40%), such as areas in the outer burbs where there is a greater chance of people losing their jobs as more of them are in the manufacturing sector, single income and other factors that lead to higher unemployment in the current climate.…[Read more]

And let's not forget that property prices are going to drop even more when there is a huge number of houses on the market because 40% of the population has died from Swine Flu ; )

So what strategy do you use? How's it going? Share with the forum your knowledge, for free!By the way, I'm not into seminars that are just there to sell their properties, just ones which are imparting knowledge on investing, and leaving the buying to us. You're knocking low-brow seminars?

Badger,  I wonder if you went to school and if you did, what for? If you have kids do you send them to school and if so, what for? To do a trade or become a professional, education is always part of the process.

I’m all for education, but I’d home-school if the only alternative was a school aimed at special needs kids who…[Read more]

First tine I've seen this post… Badger, you never replied to how much you've made in property… did you forget the question? And if you were making money from property, you could use educational seminars as a tax deduction, not have to pay from your own pocket. Thanks to books, seminars and mentoring, we make more in pr…[Read more]

Badger, I am not particulary fussed as to your opinion. Everything you have said in relation to the site is correct. Spot on.

 Badger, you are obviously a pleb, and have likely not held a job any higher than low/low-middle management.  

 Interesting comments, but perhaps I'll hone in on the one above.  I thought I would achieve this by way of comparison, Tim. I thought it would be a good idea to review your accomplishments in order to put your vie…[Read more]
