No skin off my nose mate and happy for yours to do likewise.
No shortage of nothin in the modern age ... except time ... enjoy it. Yep, 300 billion of the taxpayers dosh was doled out to the real estate industry.
Looks like you got yours by clippin the mortgage ticket as it passed from sucker to predator.
good grief you can't even get a couple of small facts right.

Throw away thought I guess - But the boomers that have squat to contribute will dig their toes in and refuse to go. Whereas those what's got a bit going for them will be out of there like the proverbial. Knowing they can come back in one way or another if they really need/want to - Least that's how voluntary redundancies have always worked - IME - With this phase being a bit like voluntary redundancies across the board - At this time at least ...
With that being about boomers who earn more than ?0K pa maybe? (60? 70? 80?) - With boomers earning less than that (with them not being the upper echelon pretty obviously) being damn happy to go regardless 'n leave their shitty jobs behind. To the youngies. Is my punt ...
I'm not sure what your getting @ bud, I think its the shear numbers of boomers that are the problem!
I know what u are saying however there aint any point to your post!

Are u talking about mining?
The boomers on a year on year basis are about the same size as both Gen X and Gen Y.
The real difference in the size of the different generations is due to the time frame for each generation, it's not so much a difference in birth rates. Gen X and Gen Y already outnumber the boomers.

Huh!
Are u Genuine!
Shear numbers 'staying on or retiring @ once'' is the point.
No pal I did well in food distribution, being a mortgage broker is what I do now to keep me out of trouble, and it's a worthwhile occupation that lets me help people instead of destroying lives like you and your mate David Collyer.
I've done more work truck driving, heavy lifting and forklift work than you will ever do with your hairdressing business and useless app building. No I made the unfortunate error of working for my money, but I see that what I should have done was steal it of someone else legally.
You spend the majority of your time in forums Peter. 'My mad mate David"? You are on drugs Peter.
I have passive app income and have had Microsoft invest into my company. Also beauty, not a hairdresser and I sold it, without a broker, as one of Australia's leading salons.
Also clear that you do not understand the demographics well. 5.2 million boomers. 4.1 million born here and 1.1 million from immigration. Regardless of how you would like to classify the cohorts, the boomers are the largest cohort and the pig in the snake is very real.

Yes I do spend a bit of time blogging that's for sure, but I see others here and at MB blogging all day, but hey that's their business. I don't see how that affects what I am doing or have done in the past.

Paul divide the number by the years that the generation covered and you will find that the boomers are not as large as the following generation or it's about the same.
We have gone through this before and when we did the math you had to agree with me - do you want to do the numbers again?
Please stop making up your facts.

Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
