Interest rate rises and punting

[dotcumdotinyou]

I know for a fact that all the bin companies in Sydney metro are searching for drivers, all you need is a HR license which costs about $1800 to get which may seem high but the pay is more than $30 per hour and overtime is abundant.

This won't last long though as our border opens this opportunity will go to Indians whose HR licenses are recognized in Australia

It was 18-19% under Keating and people still survived paying mortgages.

On the other hand Keating's "recession we had to have" brought truck loads of new girls" into the industry. I can remember $90/hour, nude from the start, with loads of extras included at no additional cost.The main competition was girls competing for clients. Good times - But they didn't last!

Take the AL payout and start your new job in 2 months win win

I've done that several times. Always nice for a payout but also just so burnt out. There's a reason why we have annual leave. Holidays are important for the mind.

Definitely Eshays before the term.

I almost got rolled for my Fila shirt my this writer called Metro at West Ryde station back in the late 80s when it was the hood. No more housing commission these days.

Haha, Metro is still acting like a dick to people these days

Definitely cutting down punting to minimum in the present economic climate with pandemic, Ukraine war, interest rate hike, inflation, recession etc.

I don't own a car, don't travel, don't drink, smoke or gamble. I used to be able to save part of my earnings.

Punting is my biggest expenses. If I punt recklessly I would not be able retire comfortably.

By punting I only make mamasans and MLs richer. And myself poorer. They are driving expensive cars and live in expensive apartments.

Increasingly I start to realize punting is for the wealthy class of people and not for people like me who have to sweat for every dollar I earn.

Having being poor I know the value of money.

At least when you reach 18 you can legally drink

I nearly got rolled in the early 90's for my Air Jordan IV's in Melbourne...

The IVs will always be my favourites.IMG_20220707_210142.jpg

Quality shoes right there. Them and the V's.
Really loved my Reebok graphlite pumps as well.

We are fortunate enough to have a few weeks annual leave in Australia. I heard workers are only entitled to one week in the US.
