Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

What do you make of the BHP Billiton situation of capping exec pay and reducing salaries under the new CEO?

Not sure, I am not really watching the markket that closely at the moment, I sold 90% of the shares I had to buy my place. BHP is one of the few I did keep though, and intend to do so for a while, I think it will be helpful but the only thing that will really turn them right around is resources prices going back up.

As it stands you're ineligible for the first home owners grant if you buy an investment property? So many variables to think of

There is no first home owners grant unless you are buying a brand newie, but there is a stamp duty exemption which will save you around 10,000 or so. You have to live in the building for a period of one year starting within one year of buying it.

Housing is no sure bet either. Im not a fan of buying and counting on the market going up. If you have the time to buy places with development potential then you can get some high returns with little work but knowing the DA process and what you can put on a block/determining its potential value is going to be difficult unless you know what you're doing or if you're going to pay someone.

Lot of thinking to do eh Pete. Spend it on coke and hookers

This is true. My sister is a valuer. That helps! Lol

It doesn't come out too bad if you rent the place out plus growth. The sort of interest you pay though does freak me out (150% on a 25 year loan st 9%!), plus there is the commitment aspect of it, if I bought one in the next year and then lost site work I'd be in a spot of bother

So what you're saying is spend it on real estate agents lol

[massive disclaimer: I have nothing against real estate agents, I'm sure they're really nice people. The centre of my joke is based on this recent article http://m.propertyobserver.com.au/industry-news/real-estate-agent-glenn-farah-disqualified-until-2021/2012100857041 ] phew!

I would rather spend my money on real estate agents than fkn lawyers! :P

Actually scrap that, Real Estate agents are pretty awful, for some one that requires very little in the way of education they tend to think they are the pinnacle of society and intellect.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
