Anyone else remember that tv ad ?? Went something like: “One day you’re gunna get caught with your pants down…” [:0)]

“I want to be rich, and stupidly happy – so far i’ve only managed to achieve the stupid part…”

Found and re-sent it Phil, let me know back in this post if you don’t get it… []

Cheers,

“I want to be rich, and stupidly happy – so far i’ve only managed to achieve the stupid part…”

Hey Phil, was away for the weekend and just saw this post, sorry mate… []

Interestingly it seems 44 other stickybeaks had a look before i did regardless of the title !! []

I definetly responded, yep i remember the Corvette part… the “gorillaboy” is me. (Don’t ask – i thought it was funny at the time)

Will have to send it again, buggered if…[Read more]

Glenn, i’ve emailed you my mobile number… I’d have sent my home number but hey, you could be an axe murderer right ?? [] []

Cheers,
Paul…

“I want to be rich, and stupidly happy – so far i’ve only managed to achieve the stupid part…”

Big deal…

I don’t make what i’d call a huge wage but i’m still going to be in the top bracket before shift penalties or overtime – where’s the incentive to work harder for financial gain ??

No wonder i’m making my money work for me, rather than working for my money… old Mr. Kiyosaki has got one thing right… []

Having said that if any…[Read more]

Mel, maybe it’s just that old people whinge more ?? []

Here’s another sign of market trends – i had a couple of agents out yesterday afternoon, just to get a valuation ( a “guesstimate” perhaps ??) on my IP and all three claimed i’d still get top dollar but “the market has slowed dramatically in the last six to eight weeks…”

They claimed they…[Read more]

DId u go to any reno seminars? DO you do most of the handy work yourself?
Glenn[8D]

Glenn, i’ve never attended any sort of reno seminar or any seminar for that matter in my life.
As i said earlier to me it’s a personal thing. I renovate to a style i like without going all out on “luxuries” – neat, classy and…[Read more]

That wouldn’t be you by any chance Phil ?? []

Sent you an email btw, let me know if you didn’t get it… []

No worries Glenn – when you get that elusive first reno let me know and i’ll let you know who my kitchen guy is – he’s a legend !! []

There’s another line to that one… But it’s very crude so i won’t post it – unless you want to know what it is… []

Wow Pinky, i’m impressed !! So where did you cut and paste that from ?? []

It’s so sad because it’s true !!
I feel like i had the best life as a kid doing all the stupid things i did (i still remember the day at 5 years of a age that a broken ankle taught me i couldn’t fly despite my home made cape), kids thesedays can’t get by without mobile…[Read more]

I got 40 right – quite a few guesses along the way !! Am i the only one who thought it was way to American focused for us Aussies ??

And i started singing that bloody “Beleive it or not” in the shower… Grrrr !!” []

quote:My hat off to Paul. How could you do that massive renovation with only $23K? How many days (ave. 8 hr/day) did it take you to complete it? Did you use any trademan at all? If I have to do the same it would cost me close to $100K.

Believe it or not Huey i think i “wasted” about 2k during that renovation – just buying stuff that was…[Read more]

LOL !! That’s a good point… []

This is getting scary Mel !! []

So when is the special day ?? And do we really have to invite the whole forum ?? [?] []

Cheers,
Paul…

“The only thing you get from looking backwards is a sore neck…”

Glenn: I’ll probably get shouted down for this, but i wouldn’t rely on anyone elses opinions when renovating – to me it’s up to YOU to judge what you need to do and what to spend…

Having said that there are plenty of good tips that you can take on board…
Shop around and look for things like kitchen auctions, ex demo carpet, tiles that look…[Read more]

One of the best ways i found to improve the value of a property is to create nice neat gardens.…[Read more]
