This is how I reckon it should be done. These days we could get an alert to indicate come and collect your mail. Delivering to each house…

I knew a long-time bike rider why was learning to drive a car, and refused to head-check, claiming it was a dangerous distraction. I don't…

You're def doing it wrong. Get a driving lesson and find out what else you've been doing wrong.

Thanks. This is news to me, and certainly not what was taught when I learned to drive. (Hence I guess why people struggle to change.)

You sound like you rely on laws to keep you safe. Which is fine, because if you get caught being distracted by a conversation, you will get…

For learner drivers, I 'd say yes. For others, it's a good reminder that one day you could kill somebody if you allow yourself to be…

It sounds like your agent was negligent, you might want to lawyer up. Same happened to me. No agent, so all on me for trusting people.…

Of course they are. That's what they do. I was unemployed for 5 years, then sparsely employed for several more, but never on their books. I…

> I wasn't expecting a difference, but I'm suprised that I'm struggling to notice any change whatsoever What a strange thing to say. You…

Ouch your investment isn't in super? That's going to hurt when it would have been tax free when you retire.

This. The business is your retirement savings. ATO allows you to invest in your business rather than your business struggling while you…

I agree with DingoBilly. OP can be cautious and protect what he has, as it should be sufficient for him. But my plan is to be 100% in ETFs…

It might go against diversification "rules", but I figure stock markets tend to return a predictable return over a reasonably long period,…

I'd look into the CGT benefits in retirement of buying your ETFs in a SMSF. My plan (so far) is to have 100% in ETFs, and just sell down…

Yeah I was going to reply "try to get a loan and see if credit cards are debt". After decades of collecting points, my conclusion is it…

> It's not my belief Hold on, do you a) believe it; b) not believe it; or c) not think for yourself > they're the scientific and legal…

I disagree, but I'll tolerate your beliefs to the extent that you don't try to impose it upon me.

I remember my GM once saying "if you don't love being here you shouldn't be". Management figured the tragic restructure that offended…

Out of negs.

I totally get it. I had a friend who was told they had to add pronouns to their email footer, and didn't feel comfortable on it. I don't…

who mentioned being scared of anything? Should we call it pronounphobia? I'm so sick of everything being a phobia. Refusing to conform to…

I've always said if I was forced to say the acknowledgement, I would find it necessary to also acknowledge all the immigrants who have…

This is my attitude. It's probably obvious that I have refused to lead meetings when this is required. I don't straight out say why I won't…

I was just watching an early episode of Silicon Valley, where Jared thought it would be good if the best person for the job was a woman,…

I think one state said enough, it's over?? Surely it will end. Though those that don't support seem to be getting negged here so who knows.

I have 203 Steam games. I paid for a bundle once, a relative paid for a game for me once, and I bought 1 game to play with a colleague. So…

I don't see why. I avoid everything I don't agree with. Our office has so many morning teas, lunches, meetings and workshops on all sorts…

I'm pretty sure op refused (I think avoided is more what they mean) to attend "naming ceremonies", not chisel the name on the door or…

> You don’t believe in managing risk? I do indeed. I buy index-based ETFs. > The average person may, but if you put the work in you can…
