It is nice to see Government spending on mental health has contributed to internet access. I am not sure if they had to save for that though or just increased taxes.

WTF?

Of course people want something they can't get.

I think if I be patient for 2000000000 years, I'll finally get that Porsche I dream of. I might break every bone in my body changing gear but it will be worth it.

? Bold ? sounds like a lot of tax being paid that could be better worked for a better return. Not here to argue or really worry about it, the owner wrote how he was disapointed with his return, my reply was try a new accountant and get some alternate advice on setting things up to work more in your favour, from being in a similar situation i have probably pulled 10K plus back for the last 5 years. Nothing smart / bold or funny about my reply that i saw.

IMO, better to get a decent financial planner and your accountant to work in concert. eg..Macquarie Bank has some excellent products to decrease marginal tax rates. FWIW, that recommendation came from the planner that I use who's a Westpac affiliate

Steve
no commercial interests etc etc
