    it is unfair to deleted other people posted without any reason and not ever saying a words.

    Wake up Richmond!

    Ok, sure, But all it seems you are doing now, is making many many posts, which are off topic…

    Many of us could ask why ?? To get your # of posts / member rating upgraded ??

    The more appropriate path of action would be to make 1 posting here, followed by a Private message……..

    Rugbyfan,

    A very good point…. I guess this is never gonna stop is it ??

    A localising of content perhaps ?? to scare us all ??

    I’d say we are down on the list as far as priorities go…. Britain, and Saudi’s are bigger fish methinks……

    We all agree that 9/11 was a bad thing… but sheesh… has it gotten better or worse since then ? and why ???

    Then we take one step back. what caused 9/11 ?? Not enough space on the web for that debate…………..

    Intolerance of others…………….. and their beliefs….

    God/allah/whoever help us all….

    WAF,

    I think you need to remember which part of the forum you are in…. this is the OPINIONATED area… where we come and talk about all sorts of things, yell, scream, kick, argue like hell, but at the end of it all, we still talk to each other about our main passion….. PROPERTY INVESTING !!!!

    e.g. Pisces and I were arguing here on the forum, but at the same time, I was sharing some bank info thru email….

    Take it all with a pinch of salt mate….. this IS the area where we go for it !!

    CHAN$…. you POST IT NOTE you…… trying to bump yr post count up……….

    Cheers,

    Pisces

    Think you also are taking things out of context here……

    1. Enjoying this ? the debate or the attacking ?? [confused2]

    2. Media being lilywhite – only one I have seen mentioning this so far is you….. ??? [eh]

    Step back, and look at what everyone is saying.

    Yes, SOME media outlets are sensationalist…. but not all….

    Just as there are good and bad “apples” in ALL industries…..

    By tarring people with the same brush, you are no better than some of our other overzealous forum members. And I hope you aren’t…

    Please balance your comments.. We all have differing opionions. Yours aren’t “the gospel” requiring strict adherance………..

    Calm down, accept others views… You don’t have to agree with them, but carpet bombing them ain’t gonna work…..

    Oh Brother….. !!

    Calm down folks….. lets try and discuss the issues rationally…..

    And, please no attacks against each other…

    This IS a topic that should be talked about, but without the anger….

    PEACE GUYS <=> Calm down…………….

    Pisces,

    The media put out the stories they think will get the most ratings…..

    And yes they do tend to bend the truth on many occassions….

    I guess the hard part is trying to get some balance in it all.

    In Singapore, the Media is owned by a government investment corp…. Whilst they always say, we are not govt controlled….anyone with a brain knows better…..

    I get my news from the web thanks very much….. I don’t need to have my news sanitised like the rest of the sheep…..

    How do we get balance…. well that’s one for all of us to think about I guess….

    Pisces. We all respect everyone’s opinions, but you need to calm down a little… Many of us have experienced things 1st hand…. and we all have a contribution to make….

    Cheers

    Go Overseas !!!

    Depending on where you go, tax rates can be very low compared to Aust. Meaning your saving capacity is greatly increased !!!

    I’m based in Singapore, and paid 9% income tax last year [exhappy] Hong Kong is about the same as well….

    If you want to work overseas, try to get a job before you come over…. makes life easier….

    GO FOR IT !!!!! [cowboy2]

    Gatsby and others…

    Your point is right….. If ya gonna quible about $1000 education, then, don’t bother, as you ain’t gonna make it in this investment line…

    I’m from IT, where on many occassions I have spent 3-4k for a 3 day course…. was it worth it… ? Hell yes…..

    Now I wish I was in a location that Steve was presenting in…. $ 1k is peanuts….[lmao]

    Put it this way… I spent a few $$ on Rick’s wrap pack ( Sorry Steve, didn’t know you had a pack at the time…. ) It cost me a decent amount….Have I made a return on that….. YOU BET [cap]

    Whilst I do my homework on a course or seminar, I fail to see the loss in a $1k seminar….. 15k Seminar – FISHY….. but 1k….. folks… GET REAL……

    REAP seems to be more on the side of analysis about the property that may be purchased……

    I suppose if you already have your way of looking at a deal, and, the 11 second rules etc etc. then maybe it won’t add much more…..

    I’d love to know the answer to this one as well, as It looks like a good package…. just not sure it’s for me…..

    I think we find society brainwashes us to :

    1) get good grades in School
    2) get a good job and work hard
    3) retire…..

    Thanks but NO THANKS…. I hope most people at PI forums realise this, and is why we are all here sharing our ideas etc…..

    The Tall Poppy Syndrome is alive in well in most countries…. but, as I once heard in a seminar…. If you are not well off and are bitter, you should be asking yourself, what am I going to DO about it…. .sadly most still sit and complain……

    the rest of us…. are on our way…..

    EVERYONE interested.

    OK, I have got more info from Jamie….

    I suggest you visit http://www.responsetoasicallegations.com.au/

    If you think ASIC is above board, then we are all in for a shock……

    Seems the tall poppy syndrome is alive and well in Australia…..

    Jake,

    you know, I’m a bit confused now.. There was a posting titled 21st Century academy…

    In there I mentioned, I had heard it had gone bust…..

    I then had a direct email from Jamie McIntyre saying that was not the case….

    Then obviously I saw the ASIC advise pages…..

    I have emailed a copy to Jamie, and asked him to clarify his position here….

    Cheers

    Steve,

    All I can say is. BE CAREFUL, DO YOUR HOMEWORK….

    It used to be that Foreigners could not own a property there, unless jointly with a local.. This may have changed…..

    Bali is still suffering the effects of the bombing, so, be wary on any renter figures you are provided…… check everything out for yourself…

    Cheers
