Yes @drron we are with Bankwest and recently Mrscove’s credit card got hacked again. The AI bot was as useful as cough on a bull. Hello StGeorge and HSBC for some transactions.

I was late to the CSL party so we paid about $250 for 800 shares. RFK JR is not helping CSL. Have been working with the accountant to finalise one of our share accounts for the fiscal fiend. We are close to getting that one done. The ATO are now checking the capital gain on the sale of our...

Just saw a Penfolds advert for their 707 at $800 a bottle for 2022 release. I will stay with MossWood and Cullens Diana and will save about $650 a bottle.

RFK JR is hurting CSL with his anti vax ideology. We are old enough to remember all the nasties that were around before vaccines were developed. Trump has picked a dumb cough for a health role.

Yes that was a big day for most of us. We had a long lunch so all I did was get some AN3PI before the price moved up. These go ex dividend on December 5th which isn’t too far away. That is an ANZ Bank hybrid that finishes in March,2028.

Franked dividends are a favourite for baby boomers especially.

I had to look up ganglion to see it wasn’t the clap. Once I knew that it was a cyst I felt around my hands and yes there are a couple that exist that were not there 25 years ago. Just part of the fun of getting older.

REITS have been affected badly by the stalled higher interest rates. Our current government is not helping the interest rate story that is crushing folks with large home mortgages.

I read financial reports so I was happy with IPH’s latest numbers. Have taken up DigiCo issue and True North copper placement. Have just lodged a proxy for GDA’s AGM. Good Drinks need a rev up on making profits. We do have quite a range of stocks and bonds and I still enjoy the thrill of the chase.

I like the business that IPH are in and I bought because they were cheap. If you rely on charts you never get to buy stocks near their low point. Buy low and sell high tends to work for us if we ever need to sell. I had my tax accountants query our investment in Waterco when they were very...

We bought some IPH this week as they moved down to a new low. They should go ok in the IP and trademark areas. It might take a while but I am a patient investor.

Does it come with parking? It seems you can make more out of parking slots than selling and servicing rooms. We own a bit of the Novotel Sydney Airport which is the old Hilton and it has recovered from the bad times of Covid.

This is our busiest week unfortunately so I cannot come tonight. Stay safe @QF WP and try to give us a bit more notice.

Now I cannot do Tuesday night as work has changed the date of our dinner.

Hello @QF WP we have a heavy schedule this week so let’s see if others are around. That would be @JohnM , @Daver6 and of course others in WA.

We have used Arguscarhire trawler site for quite a few years. Recently we tried Sixt to get a vehicle. They let us drive a BMW sedan instead of a Toyota Camry and we had some issues with some of the quirky controls. Had to get our parking concierge at Cove to explain some of them. My sons often...

The biggest cost is the insurance so make sure you take up what you need. I haven’t tried Costco but we are business members at Costco.

Now CBA is on a PE of 27 which is quite ridiculous but that doesn’t mean it will fall $50 tomorrow. I looked at PEXA and UNI but was not convinced that I should buy either. We have chunks of bank hybrids as our back up cash as we can get the funds back in a couple of days.

Wesfarmers paid close to 10 billion too much for Coles under Goyder's watch so that hurt Wesfarmers for a while. Wesfarmers managed to get out of Coles after Goyder was gone.

Yes @prozac I agree that Goyder at Woodside is a complete dud. Now a chap at our local cafe says all the Goyder family are duds but I don't know Tim.
