Yeah it's like 30% of my portfolio.
Will sell most when I hit green. Will keep some because hodl

Speaking of hodl and parabolic, Ive been back in the green on Bitcoin the last few days. Obviously everything else except Litecoin has tanked.
Now not really sure what to do... First big whale sell off hit this morning. But it gains momentum just so quickly

I'm interested to see what comes of the farm out announcements. They're tight lipped about who and incremental updates for every signature they get on each piece of paper is just annoying, but shouldn't be too long now that they announce the terms of the farmout and that should give  a bit of a short term lift. Might be your opportunity to exit before any other big projects.

Awful as it is, US conflict with Iran is the best thing for US oil share prices...

Did you dump your bit coin before it popped?

Nup, I'm still in the green though. And it's still up for the week.
I'm not concerned about crypto, lots of wheels spinning behind closed doors. Shit will change the world one way or the other, but whether current crypto will be worth anything, who knows.

Basically we don't give a shit about assets with home lending. You could have $5 or $5mil to your name and it won't affect the outcome. Assessment is made based on taxable recurring income as this is what we need to demonstrate to APRA.

If you own a business it's slightly different in that we use EBITDA less tax... So you pick up depreciation and interest expensed but still essentially the same thing.

Started to look at houses to buy with the other half, the realization is real that you need to spend like 800k to get something remotely decent around the Wantirna / Bayswater / Rowville / Scoresby areas. 

650-700 will get you a very average (to put it politely) house in Boronia scattered with cats during the open for inspection LOL

I guess not much has changed since I got my little Clayton unit back in 2014 

Waiting for the banks to tell us to f**k off anyway though. ?

Leigh drive 5-10 minutes further than Rowville and look for a large sized older joint or decent sized new joint in Hallam/Endeavour or Narre for the same money.

Fountain Gate is going to do to Narre what Eastland did for Ringwood...already happening.

Yeah considering it, Furntree Gully seems okay for the $ too

Hard to find a place that ticks most of the boxes in general too, still early days tho. 

Also amazing how fast you can save $$ when living back with the parents, even though its really annoying.

Don't know them feels, mine charged rent at basically market rate.
This.
Think I would struggle to share a multi room air bnb with my mum for one night, let alone move back "home" ("home" has changed twice since I moved out)

    • Why are people so insistent on making dirty water?!
    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
