Thanks mate - was awaiting your reply as the one I fully trust
My recent kitchen reno had the insurance as an inclusive not a line item whereas this one doesn't - hence my question.

His latest email:


Does this process seem right?
I am okay with it.

If the invoice is going direct to you for payment will it be in your name? Does this raise any concerns about the builder perhaps being ineligible as described in suity's advice above? I don't know I'm just asking.

Speaking to a relative overseas last night and he asked me what the average wage is in Australia. I said about $70k. Is that correct? What is now considered good money in your opinion?

 

[Twizzle]

sounds about right but the cost of living has to be relevant as well

And another thing, one of my staff had his loan approved by the bank. He has a reasonable deposit and is married with no dependents. He told me that the bank has approved a mortgage of $1 million. I nearly fell off my chair.

That's a pretty hefty mortgage for a butler

Surely only those with a life expectancy akin to Yoda's would get a loan that hefty to give them enough time to pay it back?! "A shitload of money it is!"

Here I am freaking out about having to borrow ~300K!!

Radicalisation Awareness Kit: Government's new booklet for schools links green activism, 'alternative music' to terrorism

Environmentalists and teachers are up in arms over a new Federal Government anti-radicalisation kit that links green activism and "alternative music" to terrorism.
The Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Terrorism Michael Keenan launched the Radicalisation Awareness Kit in the form of a 32-page booklet on Monday.
Through a series of examples and fictitious case studies, the booklet aims to illustrate the circumstances which can lead young people to become radicalised.
But one surprising example cites the power of the alternative music scene and environmental activism in the radicalisation process.

The case study in the 'Violent Extremism' section tells the story of a girl called 'Karen' who becomes involved in the "alternative music scene, student politics and left-wing activism" when she leaves home.
'Karen' ends up sabotaging logging machinery and being arrested "on numerous occasions" while becoming "totally cut off from her family".

Sad to hear a Mike Gibson ended his own life at 75. Sadly suicide rate among men over 85 three times other age groups. Please keep occupied

I really think there are some things that the media should back off from and this is one of them.

The public dont need to know this imo.

Talking about the Black Dog is way better than ignoring it.

Yes pretending it didn't happen is always the best way to deal with a complex and dangerous issue.
