And that’s the problem with the definition of profit over time. You may have more dollars in your wallet but if the dollars you had 20 years ago bought a dozen eggs and the dollars from the sale still only buy a dozen eggs 20 years later then are you actually any wealthier? Inflation…[Read more]

Not usually a good idea. The BSod, vinegar solution will neutralise the smell first. It’s better to complete the cleaning process without deodorisers as they simply mask any residual smells that might be there fooling you into thinking you’ve solved the problem.

Personally speaking I think that due to the unprecedented easing polices of the big boys there is Tsunami of inflation building up.

Not necessarily. The trillions in new money created over the last few years is still locked up in bank and central bank deposits. It exists only as digital money at this stage and hasn’t entered the…[Read more]

PS I’ve bought another $15k of silver shares (little miner in QLD) over the last 2 weeks.

It doesn’t cost to bring money with you other than bank transaction fees. If you decide to carry cash across a border you simply need to declare amounts over $10k.

If it’s an NZ investment property you need to talk to an accountant there
