They also mentioned Gosford in NSW in the video. Is anyone here familiar with Gosford?
Gosford is lovely, we used to go there regularly for swim carnivals with the kids when they were growing up.
I do not know much about the current real estate market there as I have been away from the East coast too long. However, all of the central coast took great strides from the 90s and there are many lovely trendy places to holiday there. We always used to say we would retire there when we lived in Sydney :)
Definition of a doom and gloomer from 1993
The last camp is made up of the doom-and-gloomers. Their slogan is "it's the end of the world as we know it". Right now they are convinced that debt is the evil responsible for all our economic woes and must be eliminated at all cost. Many doom-and-gloomers believe that unprecedented debt levels mean that we are on the precipice of a worse crisis than the Great Depression. The doom-and-gloomers hang on the latest series of negative economic data.

50/50 should be very workable.

Agreed. Every day would be a pain, but 50/50 would make it doable for sure.

Back when I was doing my trade in the late 80's early 90's I used to have no option but travel up to 100klm each way daily......unpaid.

Jobs weren't as easy to come by then and apparently we were made of sterner stuff than the softcocks of today.
Seems like your the softcock. Had no option but to drive a 100km each way? Why didn't you move to where you were working. That's what I did.

Perhaps you didn't want to be away from mummy :lol

I moved away from mummy's skirts into share accommodation at 16 and got to work via 3 different forms of public transport , how about you?

The reason I couldn't move "again" in this instance was low wages at the time and reduced savings due to several weeks between jobs so I could not afford bond and rent for a place of my own
I imagine you probably would have run crying back to mummy for assistance in this instance but I did not.

Plus I had legal obligations to my landlord and the girls and guy that I shared and co/signed with.

Just as well I didn't move off by myself as this firm also went bust 18 mths later as well.
Next job was in the opposite direction to this one

Sweet. Good luck.
How remote do you want to go.
My place is 1 hour from a number of major towns, and 2.3 hours from Sydney, but look to expanding my rural holdings with something very special about 2 hrs from a middle size regional town, and about 7 hours to a capital city. Closest little village about 1 hr away.

Isolated, with fresh water catchment draining onto the property totally enclosed in a national park.

Some large size pasture improved paddocks on floodplain and 20 yo regrowth and Old growth.

First holding on that watercourse.

Very nice.
I have not got a specific area in mind at this point.

Within 30 minutes drive of a reasonable sized town, ie One with a hospital and other facilities without being too big like a capital city.
There are some people who seem angry and continuously look for conflict.
Walk away, the battle they are fighting isn't with you, it's with themselves.

The first lesson of economics is scarcity: There is not enough of anything to satisfy all who want it.
The first lesson of politics is to disregard the first lesson of economics. ~ Thomas Sowell.

Signing legal documents at 16? Sounds like bullshit to me. More likely some little old lady took you in as a boarder :lol

I signed legal documents at 16 to buy my first car. All in my name and with my own money.

It's not that unusual.

So you haven't got anything so you make some shit up as usual. :re:

FYI there is nothing in the act saying what minimum age is to sign a lease, especially in the 80's.
If you have something, please show us
Bet you don't. :re:

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.

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.
