I agree with most of this. The too hot comment is interesting though. Being a Melbournian originally but living in Sydney now, I can tell you...
I'm originally from Melbourne, so perhaps my views are out of date now, but I do have lots of friends in the Thornbury, Northcote, Preston,...
It was actually the strata agent who sent the letter after receiving a complaint, which instructs the owner of the shopping bags to remove them on...
I live in a strata property that contains 4-5 buildings each with 5-8 units. Inside each building is a small little foyer. Packages will be...
Boomers can probably have claim to being frustrated at paying super (relatively) high interest rates, but most of Gen X probably only paid these...
I truly feel for millenials if 5.5% interest ratings in 2024 comes anywhere close to being true. I believe it was the Economist that had a good...
