They are a product of their environment in the same way I was when I decided that thrash metal was real music back in the day.

Just as much as half of Australia thinks that they can become millionaires from buying a few cheap houses and renting them out to people they have priced out of the market.

Teenage kicks.

I'm a boomer, a home owner, a landlord, a capitalist, and someone who's not opposed to highish immigration per se Doubleview; So suspect the only things you and I might have in common are that we are both Aussies who drink! :)

kids? : “Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for their elders and love chatter in place of exercise; they no longer rise when elders enter the room; they contradict their parents, chatter before company; gobble up their food and tyrannize their teachers.” Socrates - Some decade around 420 BC maybe? LOL!

Contradict their parents?....You piece of scum all that criticism is likely a reflectance of what u despise in yourself.

You were supposed to appreciate the irony of the fact that Socrates was grizzling about kids back in his day mate ... LOL!

But look, if you reckon your mummy 'n daddy don't always hold your hand nicely like you'd always hope/wipe your bum nicely like you'd always hope, then take it up with your mummy 'n daddy.

'Cause I'm busy taking care of the younger members of my family ... :)

Ah yes, those were the days - Sepultura, Pantera, Deicide, Cannibal Corpse, Pungent Stench and many others I used to whip my long hair around to. Now those were some real musicians :D

Some small town gets overrun with miners and their property values go to the moon. Then they cash in equity and live it up, then realize they have to pay back the equity. Now they are pissed off and look around for something to bitch about. Bitch about the drunken miners! !

If only those miners would piss off!! One day the miners all piss off, their property values crash and they're back where they started from but with 100k more debt.
Shadow was hopelessly wrong about the Gold Bull Market.
What else is he wrong about?

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.

Forum Rules: The main forum may be used to discuss property, politics, economics and finance, precious metals, crypto currency, debt management, generational divides, climate change, sustainability, alternative energy, environmental topics, human rights or social justice issues, and other topics on a case by case basis. Topics unsuitable for the main forum may be discussed in the lounge. You agree you won't use this forum to post material that is illegal, private, defamatory, pornographic, excessively abusive or profane, threatening, or invasive of another forum member's privacy. Don't post NSFW content. Racist or ethnic slurs and homophobic comments aren't tolerated. Accusing forum members of serious crimes is not permitted. Accusations, attacks, abuse or threats, litigious or otherwise, directed against the forum or forum administrators aren't tolerated and will result in immediate suspension of your account for a number of days depending on the severity of the attack. No spamming or advertising in the main forum. Spamming includes repeating the same message over and over again within a short period of time. Don't post ALL CAPS thread titles. The Advertising and Promotion Subforum may be used to promote your Australian property related business or service. Active members of the forum who contribute regularly to main forum discussions may also include a link to their product or service in their signature block. Members are limited to one actively posting account each. A secondary account may be used solely for the purpose of maintaining a blog as long as that account no longer posts in threads.
