FTA-TV First Dates - Part 5 - Back to the Repeats

[Bucking Bronco]

How can one watch season 2 & 3?

 

[Shell]

Just watched The Fifth Plane.

United Airlines are an utter disgrace.

 

[Shell]

Seems pretty clear United 23 was the fifth plane. Luckily those boxcutters went on the wrong plane.

It was interesting, but I'm not entirely convinced. Too much is only suss in hindsight.

eg. Some people on grounded flights would have innocently had boxcutters, pocketknives, etc. While they're stuck on the tarmac they call home and hear about the other planes, panic, and dump them another seat pocket on their way out.

Oh come on

• man dressed in a burqa
• man sweating profusely on a cold plane
• man yelling carrying on he doesnt need to eat just leave
• man asks "did they get the White House" as they disembark the plane

 

[Shell]

End of the day, even tho they/we dont know- it was probably a better thing that plane did not get the chance to take off > did get a chance to take off.

1/4 investment property owners have sold up. So there goes a massive chunk of the governments land tax

You know who they're going to come after next- owner occupiers

 

[Shell]

This State is legit stuffed.

Happy national chocolate milkshake day!

Chocolate is OK but vanilla is where it's at

 

[Shell]

Ugh that posts makes me feel like urgently going to the toilet.

 

[Shell]

Q. say I put my apartment up for rent- but move into my parents holiday house + get a new job in that area. No proper rental agreement etc... is my apartment classified as my "second" home/investment property and would I have to pay tax on it.

Even tho its the only thing I own?

 

[Shell]

It's something I'm just thinking about atm... maybe a few years down the line. Get someone else to pay off my mortgage + bonus live near the beach.

 

[Shell]

Practically rent free. Would pay the bills and general upkeep of the house.

Yeah, once it's not your primary residence you get slugged with more taxes

 

[Shell]

**** that idea then.

 

[Shell]

If you are not on a high enough income (like me) you should be able to do that.

Absolute bullshit

 

[Shell]

I would just leave it empty then. Disconnect the water and electric + Go away for a year rent free living down the beach. And could go back whenever I wanted.

 

[Shell]

^^^ see how that helps the renters out in this economy? **** all helps them.

Residents at the West Footscray block dread receiving their quarterly strata fees, which has spiralled to be about $10,000 a year, more than people’s mortgages in some cases, and is expected to take 15 years to pay off due to the many defects.

A strata levy dated 2015 for a two-bed, two-bath apartment required $1134 to be paid per quarter. But by 2018 in the same period, this had climbed to $1729. The most recent levy, sent out on August 1, amounts to $2926.50, to pay down the substantial debt residents have taken on to fix the defects that have been identified by independent building reports.

News.com.au has spoken to 11 apartment owners who are facing financial ruin as a result of the sudden increase in strata levy. Some have had to move back in with their parents and still aren’t breaking even. Others are more than $10,000 behind in payments. One person says they are suicidal.


My god. Pretty much your worst nightmare re. body corp.

You're an ideas man

 

[Shell]

That is actually brilliant.

Burn it down, get money, start again (this time to code, dickheads)

 

[Kram]

So many pubs in the WA wheatbelt burnt down in the 90s.

Definitely was some Jewish stock taking going on, just way too many for it to be simply bad luck.

Looking at that article it seriously looks like the only way out for those people
