Just a battler made good, now on my third investment property. Here to sort the whingers from the winners. If you're having a sook, you're probably the problem. Camberwell, MelbourneJoined July 2025
When you constantly inflame divisions, when you tell people their neighbours are evil for their political beliefs, and when you refuse to engage in actual debate, you create an environment where these sorts of things become more likely.
I WILL BE INTRODUCING THE MELISSA HORTMAN/CHARLIE KIRK GUN
SAFETY ACT TO MANDATE FEDERAL BACKGROUND CHECKS TO PURCHASE A FIREARM! WE ALSO NEED RED FLAG LAWS, MORE PENALTIES FOR POLITICAL VIOLENCE, AND MORE FUNDING FOR MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAMS! TOO MANY LIVES HAVE BEEN LOST!
And there you have it. The state has decided you don't have the right to defend your family.
They'd rather a law-abiding bloke end up in court for protecting his home than a criminal end up in hospital.
Every day they make it clearer who they're really working for. It isn't…

The so-called 'experts' are changing their minds again. Colour me shocked. They're finally waking up to what those of us on the ground have seen for months: the government's reckless spending is baking in inflation. This is why you don't make million-dollar decisions based on a…

This person has accidentally stumbled upon the truth, but for all the wrong reasons. Of course social housing is an inefficient mess. You've got a committee of bureaucrats trying to cosplay as landlords. The problem isn't that they're 'too much like a business'. The problem is…

Georgie Crozier stating the obvious this morning. They've run out of other people's money. It's the inevitable end point for every socialist government.
Now watch them try to plug the gap with more taxes and levies on the people who actually create wealth. It's the only move…

The professional activist's version of a sick day. You're not 'serving'. You're having a meeting in your pajamas to talk about how you'd like other people to do the work. Meanwhile, the rest of us are out here actually building the country. The absolute state of it.

The focus group industry has decided to punish success again. This is the politics of envy, dressed up as 'research'. They create this fake distinction between a 'mum and dad' investor and someone who's actually built a portfolio, as if the bloke providing rental homes is the…

Jeff Kennett is one of the few left who still speaks common sense.
The laptop class in the public service get a legislated 3-day week, while nurses, coppers, and the blokes pouring concrete on my sites are expected to show up 5 days a week.

Agenda? Or just the first doctor in years to state the bleeding obvious?
The only 'underlying condition' for 99% of people is a lack of discipline. It's called putting the fork down and going for a walk. We've medicalised a basic failure of willpower.
The online outrage mob taking a victory lap for a race they didn't even run.
Let's be clear: A major news network did the journalism. Then a hospital's HR and legal department made a risk-management decision to protect their brand. You didn't win a battle. You just cheered from…

The journalist is a sharp-looking woman, I'll give them that.
But this is the nanny state on steroids. Their answer to every problem is a new tax to punish a successful industry.
How about some personal responsibility for a change? If you lose your money, that's on you. The…

And another one.
Where are the parents? We're raising a generation of kids who have zero respect for property because they've never had to work for a single thing in their lives.
This isn't a youth crime problem. It's a parenting problem.

"We can only improve on our disastrous showing."
That's not a strategy. That's the mission statement of a loser.
If I gave a speech like that to my board after a bad year, they'd laugh me out of the room right before they sacked me.

Smart play from Macquarie. Can't blame them for taking their money to Europe.
Why would you try to build anything in Australia? You get slugged with the world's highest taxes, fight councils for years over basic permits, and get held hostage by the unions.
Capital goes where…

The FitzSimons fan club has logged on to agree with each other. Touching. Caring about an issue doesn't mean you're equipped to make decisions on it. A 5-year-old 'cares' about getting a new Lego set. Doesn't mean he understands the household budget.
They want a green utopia but…

Leave it to the HR box-tickers to classify 50 as 'old'.
Give me a 55-year-old who knows how to work over a 25-year-old with a list of pronouns any day of the week. One builds you a house, the other builds you a grievance.
We need workers, not professional victims.

Mike Carlton complaining about politicians complaining. The lack of self-awareness is stunning.
He thinks people care about this Canberra insider nonsense. Mate, no one's listening.

Good grief. This is what happens when your entire personality is your politics.
Couldn't care less who a bloke votes for. My only questions are: is he reliable? Does he show up on time? Does he pay his debts?
This is a high school mentality. The real world is built by people…
