    Hi Leigh,

    You’re a Superstar! [:D] That site is fantastic!
    I also encourage forum members to get icq from
    http://www.icq.com it’s free and you can control settings so that you are not disturbed in the ‘Just Over Broke’ times’ [;)]. Some of you have found me on icq (I just joined after APIM) and I’m very pleased to chat with you.

    Cheers
    Sooshie [:)]
    icq#313541953 Authorization required, so let me know you’re from PI forum otherwise…let’s just say, I don’t think the ‘Greek hot lover’ was from this forum [;)]

    Hi Everyone [:D]

    I’ve had some sleep!!! [8D]
    Firstly, If I made some posts that didn’t make sense last night… uumm well, just say that you should be glad I was posting rather than driving [;)]!
    Rouvelee, thank you and I’m sure we will get another chance to meet and say ‘Hello’. [:)]
    Hi Alex, I’m glad I finally met the other sushi03 [;)]. I’m hoping you might all meet ‘sooshiesbruzza’ very shortly.
    Nessie…it’s FATE
    I will ask you about fate or luck in my next post, but I want to go and cuddle my son (who’s currently letting his little push’n’go Thomas run under my hands as I type this[:P])
    Be back shortly…

    Cheers

    Hi there Andrew and Becky,

    I’m scratching my head here a little, ’cause I hoped I wouldn’t come across harsh, but your point has been taken.
    People did better than an average job [^]. They did super! [:)]
    It WAS a game and also, many people came up to me and couldn’t stop laughing (Paul!!!) because they thought my acting was very [:0)] funny. I did break role sometimes…and had a giggle [:D].
    I probably would have been really nervous asking questions in that time frame and the aim of this game was not to be polite [;)] but to win. That’s cool.
    With regards to this wrap. I’ve thought about it and I totally agree with everyone’s advice on walking away from it. Equivicatorially (have I just made up this word [?][:D])on one hand, I know it’s risky, as well as being an emotional wrap rather than a business wrap [8)], yet on the other hand, I looked through Steve’s wrap kit and other products and they met every criteria. I have done the due diligence aswell. I also believe that they should get a chance.
    Anyway, it’s done (or in the process). I look foward not backwards.

    Cheers
    Sooshie [:)]
    (Hope this makes sense…I’m really tired)[|)]

    Hi everyone,

    Thank you all for sharing [^] Scott, I was very impressed with your creativity! I’m looking foward to catching up [8D]
    Today has been a roller coaster for me. It started off low (my friend having a CT scan ? tumor of brain – she’s already gone through it once!) then I was looking through http://www.realestate.com.au and found some positive cash flow property… SOLD… never mind I will keep looking.. Then I spoke to an agent that knew about cash flow property (AWESOME!!!) I’ll be talking to him again. I was elated again, until my brother came over and told me he’s been retrenched [:(][B)]. He wants to know about what we do… So he’s talking on the phone with a Pete now. I’m not really wonderful at explaining things to my family [:P]. They believe I’m wasting my talents by NOT working in the hospital system…
    I’m re-elating myself by looking at more cashflow positive properties at the realestate.com site. I also found something up Stu’s alley!
    Got to go
    Cheers

    Hi Andrew,

    It was lovely to catch up with you and chat vis a vis. I understood where you where coming from when we discussed jobs. Although you are miles ahead of me, you helped me to see that I could reach that place. Thank you!
    Courage based from love – That’s you Andrew!

    I’m glad you got home safely. I hope the tupperware shape-O’s were put to good use! Mine was played with instantly! Although, I did have to ply Phillip’s finger out of the smallest hole [:P]. He was very brave and didn’t cry. [:)]

    Cheers

    Hi there and welcome to the forum…

    Congratulations on your first post, your first step to financial freedom!
    I have heard about NZ aswell, like most investors, they won’t all come out screaming where they look for properties or waving their money around. Investors are everywhere. Many would say that if they can still find property that meets their criteria around their local area, which they know best, why move? When I go fishing, If I find a fishing spot where the fish are biting, I wouldn’t leave till I’ve got my quota, then I’d think of moving!
    I’d like to hear more about your research. Thank you for the link!

    Cheers and Welcome

    Hi Regina,

    It was lovely to meet you to! [:)] Thank you for sharing with us. Brave woman! I wish you every success from here on end!
    I, like you, have made many mistakes, both personally and with property. I have a young family and to think that my mistakes caused hardship in their lives – HURTS – BIG TIME. [:(]
    BUT!!! If only one thing I’ve posted to date, can help someone, I’d do it gladly, over and over. At the end of the day, we are human (although do Ihave a story to tell you all!)and if we can’t live with each other, then what?

    Lovely meeting you

    Cheers

    Hi!

    Is this guy for real??? [:O] Sydney isn’t far. For the $200 it costs to fly you down to Melbourne, I’d give you work anyday… I’ll introduce you to my hubby..he’s a perfectionist when it comes to renovating, but he does it old school, so it lasts…and lasts…and lasts… [:0)]
    I also have a spare room with ensuite… [;)]

    Hi there,

    What is the motivation for these people to say that property prices are slowing or falling or whatever else they say?
    Interest rates are still very low, FHOG is still applicable, so why would anyone want to take the confidence of buyers/investors away and turn them to other investing sources?
    What’s happening with shares? Perhaps they need a cash injection…??? MAJOR help needed there, so how do they promote shares/stocks etc? By trying to make investors loose confidence in their current investing stratergies.
    Professional investors know that you can make money no matter what market you invest your money in at any time. Risk mitigation and diversification.
    The motives to shake the housing industry is WHAT??? Ask yourselves.
    I could be way off mark, but as Michael said, there are many people at this site making money and will continue to do so no matter what cycle the property machine goes into.
    It all goes in cycles. Hop on at any time [:D]

    Cheers

    Hi neologism,

    Do either you or your brother have a full/part time job? If you both live with parents, could you sell one car and share the other? The saving on rego and general maintenance on a vehicle (a real money pit) might help you save up to buy without needing anyone else’s help. I promise you girls can walk! [:D]
    Your savings seem great. At $500 p/w you could have $26K in one year! This 70K property, you could you buy it with 1k deposit down, long settlement, do a tidy up or little reno, and rent it out or sell it once you’ve improved the property?
    At some stage you could revalue it and use the capital growth to leverage with and purchase another property.
    Is this property likely to experience capital growth?

    Cheers

    Hi Nessie, Hi all!

    Been scratching my real estate itch too … I will give feedback as I think it would be a good teaching tool. Nessie, ask me a question…you know once I start..it’s hard to stop me [:D][;)]

    I have a question too. What is the difference between LUCK and FATE? It’s not a trick question people…

    Cheers
    Sooshie [:)] (YES I have an ICQ number… 313541953) As you can all appreciate..I am a busy lady…so send me a message with your forum alias and I will authorize you. Looking foward to keeping in touch. [:D]

    Hi Fullout,

    I always like to start at the magazines for information… just to knowledge myself up. My background is far removed from tax etc.. I find the personal investor magazine helpful as it is written for the lay person.
    http://www.personalinvestor.com.au/

    This month has a special on tax with regards to different investing stratergies. It’s basic, but a good place to start.
    The ‘useful links’ post has some links that Terryw and willi, AD et al has shared with us.

    Everyone here has given you excellent advice… I’m going to act on it aswell [:D]

    Cheers

    Hi ALL!

    I’d like to know if anyone wanted feedback about the role I played in the game at the seminar? I was peturbed to hear how Lizzie (by the way, welcome to the forum [:)]) felt by ‘the game’, so I want to know if it would help, if I shared my thoughts and responses about how I perceived my role and how you all responded to this role?
    I have the permission from Grizzly Bear (aka Dave) to post feedback about the role…so if you are interested let me know.

    By the way Jason, last night I posted Stuart’s link in the ‘useful links’ post, but here it comes again…
