    I totally disagree with people who call themselves millionaires by holding title on 1million of property.

    if their net worth is $1,000,000+ then they are a millionaire.
    ie assets – liabilities

    Yeah,

    Apparently they didnt get a strong show at the last NZ seminars.

    The reviews that are around – on here in the archive and on somersoft are all positive from what i have found previously.

    Maybe they should learn from richma$$$tery [:P]
    and start the next big thing.

    business marketing.
    : latest email i got from them was for a free business marketing report & $70 gift (discount off $400 “inside secrets of marketing” )

    yep – one and the same.

    Looks like they were ‘almost forced’ to divest their mortgage broking business – as a conflict of interest.

    Im definately PRO c/cards

    Australia seems to be very with its c/limits (compared to NZ)

    Choose the right card:

    avoid cards without interest free days
    ie theyll charge u interest from day 1 of making a purchase

    of the other 2 options
    you have to weigh up your spending habits.

    1: Rewards Scheme (but annual fee $30 – 80)

    2: No annual Fee, but no points scheme

    Generally you have to spend ~$11,000 to gain $100 rewards. so if youre not going to spend at least that, its probably be better to be on the no fees card.

    Im sure theres others, but I’m using Virgin Money
    and its got a curved card too! – pick your colour and all [;)]

    Surely you would be paying interest on 150K, not 50k (assuming a 100% loan)?

    And yay for the ING rate rise. didnt even know.

    From the point of view of a kiwi recently emmigrated to these warm shores of australia.

    Initially very few poeple picked up my accent.

    Then something happened.
    The only way to describe it is that:

    the occasional aussie that did pick it, attempted to make fun of it. So i preempted it by forming the aussie stereo type accent that the above promotes.

    Then it was funny for me to get lots of aussies going – aha! youre a kiwi. When really I was laughing to myself that they have no idea.

    I do love aussie tho. The only problem being I can never seem to find a cup!

    World Cup
    Bledisloe
    Tri Nations
    Netball WC……..

    I think from memory is was 60% of the capital gain. + their initial 30% investment

    Just think of those cheap renovations you could do when the bank has to cough up 30% of the costs. (hmmm how likely is that?)

    Damn cool!

    Is there somewhere I can go to read up on whats required etc??

    While compulsory super is great for those who just plod along in their jobs til 65.. i just think that money can be invested now – in a much better way.

    even tho Ive only just started my aussie super, I could see it paying for itself in 2 years.

    OK,

    So (Im new to the Aussie super scheme)

    Can I:
    Create a DIY superfund.
    Leverage my companies contributions (9% of my earnings) that get paid into it, and use them to buy IP?

    Or in fact, have the DIY superfund become an investor in a business that I am setting up?

    I guess it depends how prudish your company is.

    fetish is always a good one.

    or toned down – naughty or nice.
    etc
    ..

    Rick,

    So you would transfer the title on the car to their name.

    and then register a financial interest in it (ie money owed on it)?

    if not… then how?

    Do wrappers fix the interest rate? or do they always opt for floating? (if so why)

    the wrappee’s interest rate is linked to the wrappers interest rate +margin?

    So wouldnt it be in the best interests of the wrapper to go for a 5yr fixed interest rate mortgage.

    this would result in the wrappee having a fixed interest rate, and then at the 5yr point, hopefully the wrappee can refinance etc.
