When you say outright you have, for example 450k for a 500k apartment? If that is the case then you just need to get a mortgage for the difference and be done with it. With that much of a deposit I didn’t think they would see it as much of a risk, but who knows. A mortgage will be much lower interest than a personal loan. Also have you factored in all of the extras… legals, stamp duty, etc etc.

And I’ll send you my words

From the corners of my room

And though I write them by the light of day

Please read them by the light of the moon

The Universe, she’s wounded

But she’s still got infinity ahead of her

She’s still got you and me

And everybody says that she’s beautiful

He’s a great artist, some serious poetry and music skills

Yah all good questions and good responses. Suspend is great for this handheld, but as @[email protected] mentions linux isn’t great at suspend out of the box and having a very configurable embedded system like the steamdeck lumps it in this basket.

I got one of amazon.com.au in June. The price was pretty much the same as the direct conversion from USD, and it got delivered the next day. Obv a 3rd party seller but have been super happy with the purchase.

hows your balance, need some topup action?

I do like me a Wendy’s burger

I think a lot of the ‘customer owned’ banks are usually good, they can be regional based as well. IE for Newcastle area Greater Bank and Newcastle Permanent Buildng Society both have lots of branches and good customer support for local. I used to like StGeorge until Westpac took them over, went downhill after that

Thanks, at least with no contract and fees laws now it makes it easier to keep em honest. Guess I’ll find out in coming days / weeks.

Yeah I’m keeping an eye out for that, wondering if the company I switched to (Red Energy) is gonna jack their prices to make them above my previous (momentum). Suprisingly they havent sent out a welcome pack yet, usually it’s pretty quick to lock you in, so I’m wondering if they are in the midst of price jacking
