Loki556 on Margin Loan Rate 6.856% p.a. (up to A$50,000) for Retail Investors @ Interactive Brokers

No worries, so I guess you have to demonstrate the full amount borrowed is invested in an income producing asset?

Dumb question, but hypothetically if you wanted to go low risk on this, is there a way to borrow $50k as above, buy $10k of an ETF, then…

El-Rhi on NAB Rate Cut - Owner Occupied 4 Year Fix @ 1.98% + $2,000 Lender Rebate + Azura Rebate up to $1,000 Per Security

Yes but this year they now have a TFF at 0.1%. Rates can still go lower (right now this what is funding the sign up bonuses etc).…

brettd commented on NAB Rate Cut - Owner Occupied 4 Year Fix @ 1.98% + $2,000 Lender Rebate + Azura Rebate up to $1,000 Per Security
Not bad for NAB considering they can borrow from the RBA at 0.25% for 3 year fixed term (and probably less soon...)

How often did you replace your cabin air filter? Was it a HEPA one?

Cheers this is what I thought, big enough fan and pre filter and who cares about pressure drop.

endolphin on [AMA] Tonight I'm Flying Emirates First Class to Europe Thanks to Ozb QFF Points, with Wi-Fi All The Way

It's a risk to monetise the points like that so I wouldn't count the $2300. Flying 1st class for $650, why not?

Does the Pioneer AVH-Z2250BT work with Apple Wireless Carplay or require the USB connection?
