    dude, that would be like asking what colour someone should bet on a poker game ….

    there are so many things to consider… everyone is individual, different risk profiles, Return on investment expectations, cash burn situations….

    is the earth round or square???

    are for specific questions and you will get answers…

    HI mukta
    maybe if you asked something more specific you would get a more helpful answer….

    I have been working with my parter (in life) an in business for nearly 2 yrs (been together for 10yrs) and we daily disagree on things…

    You need to establish who is good with what and accept responsibility ( and let go of other things)….

    We use a business coach to help mediate our decisions….

    Feel free to fire off anything specific, but i always find these “topics” are personal and always debateable on both sides!

    thanks all!
    appreciate everyone’s input!!! will keep you up to date… so from what i am reading there – i am thinking that there is no real growth in brisbane in the next 2 years…….(in property)…

    besides saving for a deposit (which is quite logical) what do others think about staying low out of the market???

    Given that my business is my investment at the moment…. (where others might stay in jobs to get into realestate…. hope my point is making sense.)

    if i want to live in a house/unit close to work that would cost normally $4ook plus, and only get away with paying $300wk, rent, what things should i consider… (to me rental seems a lot cheaper in cash at the moment for my return…..)

    ps thanks again for your time…

    Jo
    PS = Jen, if you are in Brisvegas, would love to catch up for a coffee….
    PPS – thanks heaps eric! (congrats on staying sane!!, i do find it hard to “scratch myself!!”)

    Hi jb
    Thanks for your input, definetly inspiring! Definetly heard of RB, have read numerous books of his, and steve’s, and mr sugar’s and heaps others… love reading!!!!

    I think (after very short hindsight…, sorry gatsby!!) that some privacy is just what we need! My frustration that i find, is that few people i deal with socially (namely few family and friends who’s financial statements are irrelevnat-thanks gatsby for reinforcing this!), they don’t have their own business, they can’t appreciate/relate the sacrifices i deal with. Definetely can’t complain as i chose this road, just their conflicting views challenge my thinking… i am always been strong willed!!

    thanks again for all input and my 2cents worth is…

    life is just a game, decide what part you want to play, then just do it!!!!

    Cheers Jo.

    HI KDT
    sorry for the blunt approach… can now appreciate your standing….

    my approach is that business is always built apon good relationships with good people, which equals good people + frequent contact….

    i know a good person if you are in brisbane… follow your gut instinct, i always find that is what leads me to the right decision.

    cheers jo
    GO THE MAROONS!

    i am normally not this blunt, but… why bother asking for help… when the last person you ask for comments reads..”i will make it regardless…..

    food for thought..

    Hi Gatsby
    Wow, it’s amazing how a few words objectively can make you see things in a different light… IT’s definetly a decision between logic and emotion… logically staying with my parents, saving a deposit in the next 6-9months then being in “both markets” or being able to go home to your own kitchen/laundry etc, having more flexibility with work hours (work from home) and having friends over without the embarrasment of mum and dad….. I honestly feel that i have busted my gutts to get where i am and want to start being slightly selfish (and emotional) but can plainly see that staying here is “smart”?

    Would love to have some more views…..

    Hi
    This is my first post here, although I have been reading you guys for over a year. Although I haven’t started my PI career I have my own business that is now 15 months old, and I must say that the motivation to me is the same.

    I’ll often look at people older then me in the same dead end job, complaining about their life but never prepared to do anything about it.

    Whether you invest in property, set up a business, invest in shares – to me it’s all about becoming financially independent, being my own boss but also taking on challenges!! I never did like working for anyone else, it just didn’t feel right.

    It’s never easy, if you want big things you have to be prepared to bust your gutts continually, and take knock back after knock back…Accept right now that being out of your comfort zone is the best thing you could feel, as if you aren’t uncomfortable, then you aren’t growing.

    Life is just game, decide what part you want to play in it and just do it.

    Jo.
