Macrobusiness labels contributors as FREELOADERS if they don't pay for a subscription; David Llewellyn-Smith and Leith van Onselen grow desperate for funds

Piss off trolls! Look, I'm under a lot of stress. You're right that the money we make from blogging barely pays the bills and after five years my wife is starting to get the shits. She wants me to go out and get a proper job instead of relying on her income to tide us over. Leith is in the same situation. Sometimes I think he goes to his kickboxing classes because it's better than the hiding he gets from his wife for being such a loser.
Why doesn't blogging pay more? We get up every day, log on in our PJs, and copy/paste articles from other websites. Not everyone can do a job like that, so why can't people see the value in what we do and pay us more money for it? Google advertising revenue has dropped off a cliff so we're desperate for paying subscribers. How can I keep a roof over my head if f***ing freeloaders run rampant around my website?
If you want to read the articles we copy from other sites then you should pay us for the privilege, it's as simple as that!
Ah, ya an evil f*** Shady ... - - - Deep down I've always luvved tha Irish ... Even tha Ulstermens - LOL
But still reckons ya Micks has got tha best theme songs:
After blogging for some years, it's pretty obvious that the bears are gradually all either buying houses, or they have given up.
It's just the really simple ones left.
A person who purchased property in any capital city in Australia prior to 2011 really has nothing to worry about in the event of a housing collapse. Those in Sydney and Melbourne are almost immune to any impact after the past three years.
Only the true die hard believers in Armageddon remain. Even most of those people heart isn't in it anymore.
Then of course there is you mate Simon. But he has always been a little special.
My only hope for my three boys is that they turn out nothing at all like Chris.
Oh so its the they were wrong up until now so that means they will be wrong forever......
Wheres your convincing argument for all that future economic growth required to pay off all that Record Debt........
Oh don't have one?
LOL.......
"They only have to be wrong for 10 years to make a mess of their finances, and they have.
You don't seem to get it. Prices might correct 10% or 15% but in the long run, for someone buying to live in a house for 30 or 40 years it just doesn't matter, and almost all of the risk is to the upside.
Oh so its the they were wrong up until now so that means they will be wrong forever......
A person who listened to Keen and stuck to the rental market in Sydney in 2008 is not 9 years older and significantly poorer. Even if house prices fall 50% in the next week they will still be worse off. Not only will prices still be higher than they were in 2008, but they have pissed 9 years of rent up against the wall.
You, and only you, are stupid enough to believe that the renter is "winning"

Careful, he will hit you with his ..... Hmmm, what does he have.......
Take risks - if you win you will become wealthy, if you lose you will become wise

“so you are saying the boom will last forever BWHAHAHAHAHAHA"
That's your argument........You Just have nothing to support it.
I know it upsets you when you have to provide a rational response to a difficult question....
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.
