Yes, but shares fell by 50%, enough to send any company into a tail spin. Shareholders would be screaming blue murder.

Yes, great isn't it. No incentive to save in this country.

More and more BS and Red tape. I often wonder how much the administration of all these ridiculous rules and regulations cost the taxpayer, compared to how much it actually saves. On my recent trip to Bali my girlfriend and I were discussing that it is no wonder so many pensioners move you Bali...

$300,000 invested, as they said, wipes out your whole pension rise so you are helping to support yourself but you actually end up no better off than those who have no funds. This government certainly doesn't encourage people to save for their old age, you might as well not bother.

The exact reason why I went ahead without the state subsidy. Their whole system is a complete shamozzle. For a $1300 subsidy you are letting Synergy hijack your stored energy whenever they feel the need, irregardless of whether or not you may require that stored power yourself. What a rort.

I have a 20kw battery backup on order. I qualified for the $5,000 federal subsidy but decided to give applying for the WA state govt subsidy a miss after the solar company explained to me the fact that for the $1300 subsidy offered you had to sign a contract with Synergy allowing them to draw...

Totally agree, it has nothing backing it. Depending on others to keep buying. If that's not a Ponzi scheme then I don't know what is.

👍

They did say he had mental health problems, so perhaps he qualified on those grounds. Though once again it is still really hard to get. My ex suffered from bipolar disorder and had many radical ideas, definitely thought that the law didn’t apply to him. He would go manic on occasions and I...

Thank you, just banked my second $500. I really have to stick at it now or I'll never live it down, lol.

Really?? I guess there's no accounting for taste.

It's a double edged sword. The disability pension is hard to get, if you're grnuine.You have to jump through so many hoops It's ridiculous My daughter was born with a disability and I was paid what was called a handicapped child allowance in those days. What should have been an easy matter...

I prefer to have mine scrapped out. Since moving to the country my Dr cuts them out which means stitches. I have lost count also. I said 50 but it's probably more. I've been lucky in as far as all have been BCCs only had one SCC.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. I've been very naughty this last 12 months. I've got more clothes than anyone possibly needs. Two wardrobes and I can't shut the doors My girlfriend and I had a good talk to ourselves while we were on holiday and made the $500/ft plan so here goes.

I never use toilets on transport. I always make sure I go before I leave. Was surprised on my recent return from Bali to see about 6 people lining up for the toilet straight after takeoff.

A few years ago I was having a discussion with my husband on ways to decrease expenses (mainly aimed at him and his cigarettes). I pointed out that I spent nowhere near that amount on myself which seemed a bit unfair.The outcome was that we would both have $50 each a fortnight to do with as we...

On further reflection, this lady would be wiser to hang onto her home, where she has been happily living for 14 years. Why does she need to sell her home to fund her treatment. You can get excellent cancer treatment in public hospitals for free.

Possibly my mum had a lot and also my brother. Guess it's not just the sun we need to worry about.

What a terrible situation for this woman to be in. I don’t understand the rules and regulations regarding caravan parks. For years many people lived permanently in caravan parks. Who were they hurting. Then the powers that be decided this was no longer allowed and in most caravan parks you...

Exactly, for heaven's sake. I have never sun-baked in my life but have had over 50 basal cell carcinomas removed, starting in my early 30s and have three more being removed this Friday. I can understand on my face and my arms , shoulders etc because I did a lot of horse riding but my legs...
