I gave them advice which was honest about the state of the industry, the dubious quality of a lot of the advice being peddled out there, and to try help them avoid mistakes which waste...

You have read what your message board "bestie" has written elsewhere on this forum?

I have no interest in being involved in people's intimate and personal relationships. Not here and not in real life.

I'm talking about a composite of the members present.

You aren't the first, nor do I expect the last, who whines that this forum isn't the right-wing echo chamber they hoped for.

You must be out of your mind if you think I would want to...



You may well be right. There is more than one way to have a revolution.



Paying tax is not a business expense. But the fact...

So they can go live on the street? No doubt you would then stick the boot in and call them "homeless and lazy bums"...

By the same argument, you must be fine with 10% yearly rates increases and "value capture" taxes. Actually, I think we should make that 30% to keep things fair. Problem is with landlords like...
