Buy it at spot and get SonyPony to melt it down into one of his cool little 1 Oz bars!!!!

Yep, I agree look what they have just done with the diesel fuel rebate.

Ah got ya! I'm a twit, I thought you meant South Australia by S.A. not South Africa.

I agree there would be a black market for gold and silver but there would be a lot less trading than there is now. For example, without bullion dealers or public forums like this one how would you locate prospective buyers and sellers? If the items were illegal and only attractive to a small...

I don't think confiscation is likely but I'm not so sure it couldn't happen in Australia. Back in 1996 they virtually confiscated our firearms. Yes, only certain types were on the hit list but here, in QLD at least, the government of the time had almost no records of what private citizens...

At 4.57, does that say 1000 grams? If so, that's got to be the lightest bar of gold in history or the smallest set of hands I have ever seen.

I agree. I have got business loans from a bank in the past. It was not all that easy but doable. This was 2010-2014. I paid them all back with no missed payments. Recently I tried and failed to get another loan. It was like pulling teeth, even though it was a sure, sensible investment in...

Hyperinflation or not I think I feel the same as Ipv6Ready and Timmy, it's becoming an issue. Try handing a quote to a customer where 40% of your costs (at least) are diesel then within two weeks the fuel price has risen to pretty much the point you'll be doing the job for free. When you are...

I hear you, fuel has increased 100% in two years. This can not be a matter of supply and demand. Since when did IOR or Shell not enough have fuel for you to fill your trucks and machines up? Never. There is always plenty of fuel available, it just keeps costing more and more. A friend of...

“Police are appealing for anyone with information about the incident, or who may have seen the Kenworth truck and Krueger trailer while in transit, to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.” Am I the only one who thinks it’s hilarious asking if anyone saw a Kenworth and a Kruger trailer...

I would agree with that. Another thing to think about but is how much of the "spare cash" stays locally? Say the product in question costs $100.00 ex GST from the manufacturer including freight etc. The local business puts on a 30% mark up and sells for $130.00 + GST . That puts $30.00 into...

You are so right. So many industries have been destroyed by the "race to the bottom" and ultimately it will affect us all. One shining example is the transport industry. People always complain about freight, but the biggest problem with freight is its too cheap. It is difficult for an owner...

There's some good ideas here, but I'm not convinced shopping around for everything, fixing old broken things or planting garden saves any money in the long run. I like to step back an look at the big picture, not just how much money I make, how much did I save or how much tax I pay but rather...
