    Exactly the situation many here claim to STACK FOR.

    Have to say .... when your currency is worth less than the medium you wipe your arse with ... what do you expect!

    free gold for signing up at Bitgold!

    Is this offer still on? Looking at the website it doesn't mention anything on the main page about the free gold for signing up (and the referral system). Is it referral only for the free gold? If so, can someone please PM me their referral link and you'll get another 0.5g from my sign-up?

    Exactly the situation many here claim to STACK FOR.

    I'm in agreement with those who maintain that this is the exact scenario why you stack in the first place - wealth preservation when there is no confidence in the local currency. Having said that, I think it also raises an interesting question in regards to bars vs coins. Part of people's...

    Cars as an investment

    I don't suppose your mate would like to try and help me liberate one of those Chargers from the cowcocky? There'd be a nice commission in it for him ;) I'd love one as a daily driver ...

    China puts the pedal to the solar panel

    Thanks for that fridge link .... funny thing is, as soon as you see it and he mentions the way it works with nature (physics), its like an ohh duh moment. While I think I'd have a hard time convincing the wife to have one as our main fridge for aesthetic (conforming?) reasons, I reckon I'll...

    Automation & Mechinisation + Google's Artificial Intelligence

    For better or worse the sci-fi age is coming/here. I expect Google to big players and really expand into the robotics and AI industry. Robotics for the consumer market is a large and hugely profitable gap/opportunity now and into the future with not much really around other than a Roomba...

    Abbott's little time bomb

    Not sure what you mean by me trying to see the differences, I was merely musing at the similarities of others not wanting refugees coming to the country as it would be detrimental to its current inhabitants, when the current inhabitants came to this country to the detriment of its then current /...

    Abbott's little time bomb

    I don't think they considered the success of a society/country by what was built (theirs or ours since), but rather its people's happiness and a harmony with the land.

    Abbott's little time bomb

    ^^ You mean inhabitants whose ancestors were considered a threat and whose presence was detrimental to the existing and (ab) original inhabitants? Whilst I generally agree that our borders should be much more closed (despite being an immigrant myself), the way you put it really doesn't sound...

    Phillipines elections

    Aussie elections aren't bad - they're just mundane.

    Privatise Water?

    Doesn't that happen already? If you install a water tank, you get a rebate from the gubmint, then they charge you ongoing for the water you collect. (Personally I didn't claim my rebate or notify that I had installed one) Also on my bush property, where there is no house and no services for...

    Bailout of Cyprus to cost depositors 10% immediately

    I have little faith that people in most Western countries would take any meaningful action, whether it be 10%, 20% or 50% of their savings that are stolen. Particularly true for Australia where we just seem to bend over and take it ... and say thanks afterwards. Try doing that in the Middle...

    dominoes

    Dodgy cars are the only thing I can think of - Renault, Peugeot, Citroen Although I would also expect them to feature prominently on the list of countries manufacturing white flags.

    What if We Couldn't Write to You Anymore

    Agreed. How is that determined anyway? What does "reasonably likely" equate to? Is it a 1 in 10 or a 1 in 100 chance of causing offense? And what is the acceptable limit? It's ridiculous to say the least. How do the people entrusted to look after this country even come up with this crap???

    What if We Couldn't Write to You Anymore

    This really pisses me off .... my pet hate you could say. I'm sick of having my liberties stripped from me, of the state telling me what is safe or not, and as if the whole discrimination sympathy stuff wasn't bad enough already, they want to broaden it. Soon the only safe topic of...

    For stackers with iPhones

    Just tried it - thanks! May actually use that app now. Only thing is the charts don't seem to load properly on mine.
