  1. you really need to get the MSM involved in this otherwise it’s a pointless ‘preaching to the converted’ affair.

    Seeing that property mafia has bought Ch Nein(9) and Ch Spruik(7) your best bet is to try and get 4corners(2) or SBS to turn up.

  2. A friend recently told me his family bought a block of apartments in West End, Qld, 30 years ago for $500,000. He reckons they had to pour a lot of cash into the investment, and Negative gearing is not as lucrative as it is cracked up to be!
