    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    TheEnd, I am disappointed with your responses, you are showing to me that you are unwilling to do anything until you get what you believe you are entitled to and until then you are going to do nothing outside of the system to help yourself but complain about a government system that you believe...

    Mexican Libertad or US American Eagle ?

    A 1kg Libertad is at the top of my want list! Thanks guys! I must be blind cause I have never seen them for sale here, or at least at Bullion Bourse. I could be blind... where can I find 1/2oz Libertads?

    Mexican Libertad or US American Eagle ?

    House, Was the premium on the 1kg Libertad as ridiculous as what APMEX is listing? As for the quality of the Libertad vs the ASE... I have been buying ASE's for years and have been planning to add Libertads to the mix, but only recently bought a handful of Libertads. I have always liked the...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    This is my last piece of advice to TheEnd... Stop looking for a job and start looking for work. And I never once condoned doing anything illegal, that never ends well.

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    No... because I am not a betting man, and if I misjudged you, I apologise. But again I fail to see you offering a solution to the problem, which I have tried to do, although my delivery may have been less than tactful. Here is what I have learned from your posts - There is a theme to this...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    I just cannot let this alone... This is exactly why this nation is in wallowing in entitlement. So because some government bureaucrat or union official proclaims that I am entitled to $XX.XX per hour, unless I get that stated sum, I will not work and instead expect the taxpayer to pay my...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    TheEnd, I am so far from being an asshole... I have just given you an example of how I would actually bend over backwards to help you, but I am expecting you to work and work hard for that opportunity... and if you proved yourself, I would do my best to ensure you succeeded. Not by giving you...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    In a previous post, TheEnd mentioned the he had been offered a job for $23hr by Toyota Australia and was hoping that in time he would be able to make $26hr. But either way, if TheEnd is really looking for work then $25hr is a fair offer considering he is using my tools, on my premises, on my...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    TheEnd, Apology more than accepted. I am one of those 'poor guys' that does not have a trade certificate... please do not feel sorry for me as I am doing quite well. And so can other 'poor guys' if they want to. If they don't, I could care less, they are not my problem or yours. Sorry to be...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    TheEnd, I am going to be brutal, but you are not trying hard enough... diesel mechanic! You are a diesel mechanic... I am sure there a few tradies, farmers, truckies, heavy equipment operators that you know or could learn to know that you would give you some work. If you came to me and said...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    Unlike most of the immigrants of today, from 'poor countries' or the Commonwealth, being from the USA meant that I had no benefits(Medicare, etc) for 12 months, I could not work for 12 months, my wife and children(all Australian citizens) could not receive any benefits for 6 months, and I had to...

    Centrelink system does'nt work.

    No malice intended... but I have never had a problem making money... good money... with no high school education, no trade, no degree, no profession... and I am a very disadvantaged immigrant since I am from the USA, I had to pay nearly $6000 for the privilege to live here with my wife and...

    Mexican Libertad or US American Eagle ?

    I really wanted to like the Libertad, but I was disappointed in the ones that I bought. Not near the quality of the ASE or Perth Mint. Maybe I just got a bum lot. 1kg Libertad would make a gorgeous paperweight! I agree that is the nice feature of the Libertad, but I have ever only seen the...

    US Silver Eagles or Canada Maple

    Just my opinion... I built my initial stack on silver Maples because it was the best value for money in a denominated legal tender coin. Also splurged and bought a tube of ASE's just to have some in my collection. At this point, I have liquidated most of my Maples, just sick of seeing them. My...
