Ok, but only the window and plumbing were really neccesary to bring it up to a rentable state. The other stuff I did to make it more attractive.

Congrats Guru, now you definately need to change your picture on the members page. We want to see her not you!

I gave up on Monopoly a long time ago.

Maybe a few could come up from Victoria too.

Not so confident anymore Muppet?

Tri Nations tries scored:

Wallabies – 5 (4 against)

S.A. – 6 (5 against)

N.Z. – 2 (4 against)

Can’t keep winning if you can’t score tries.

Wallabies by 6

Westan if that happens, you could dam the Balclutha River and make a harbour as well.

Now that could be some exxy property!

I knolw you were only joking but on reflection, isn’t it sad in todays society that a statement like that can get you into a lot of trouble.

Even the mention of the word bomb if you happen to be in an airport or plane, can get you into some serious trouble.

OK, but I what about the interest on both your loans (IP and PPor – I am assuming you had two loans anyway).

I am talking pure profit here. There was no borrowing for the $10,000.

And don’t forget unfranked and fully franked dividends.

OK, the company my wife works for was listed in 1995. The listed price was initially $1.00 but fell to $.80 within a few days.

The shares went to $10.00, were split and are now $5.11 (as of 20…[Read more]

Westpac rose 2% yesterday. That’s 2% in one day. How many houses do that?

Sure you need to be following the market closely to get in before this sort of thing occurs but if you started off in the morning with $100,000 in WBC yesterday you ended up $2000 richer by close of trade.

I know your in New Zealand mate, so I won’t be too hard on you but it’s 2004 not 1994.

I guess the mice have taken a break from turning their little wheel and your electric calender is not powering up properly.

Yes its a simplistic example.

Let me make the following points. This is what I was trying to get accross.

1. You can leverage more in property hence $100k in the example.

Why is that? We have some shares negatively geared that are no deposit 100% borrowed funds. That’s pretty highly leveraged I think!

I agree Pelican

Anyone who can walk away from not just one but two separate backflips at more than 200km/hr and then continue racing must have huge brass ones!

Here is an example. You buy a $100,000 property with a $10,000 Deposit. Its worth $105,000 at the end of the first year. This is a modest return of 5%. This means your $10,000 has generated $5,000 in the twelve months.

Lets compare this to shares. You invested your $10,000 into blue chip shares and managed funds.…[Read more]
