lady at teller pushing me to raise my cc limit to 9k.

nigga wat da f*k, i cant think of any reason as to why 9k limit would be a good idea for a 21yrol student living at home

Banking advisor hitting her KPI's is technically a reason

thats bad mayne. i feel sorry and not sorry for the one potato who takes it, and uses it all thinking that they can just continue their spending habits and keep paying minimum payment. lmfao

Always trying to get me to up mine to 21k. kunce are dreaming

I'm still coming to grips with the whole mortgage thing, only been about 4 months but so much more stress to keep a job, toys or mods forget that! 2 incomes would be so much easier (I don't earn dat dere average wastelander 6figs) had to compromise for unit brah.

Least I got in early, that way when I get married and divorced she can take half ;)

All depends... if you are paid weekly/fortnightly and have a mortgage with a 100% offset account and pay your card in FULL monthly you actually save money by using the CC

But this is quite unlikely for a 21yo student lol

I use my CC for everything, earns points on money I would've been spending anyway

never paid a cent in interest on it so win win for me

Yup. If you are properly responsible they can actually be a money saving tool that generates rewards.

not much work around Victoria at the moment... only positions advertised at the moment seem to be in QLD, WA or NT. Port Hedland/Pilbara can go ead. and so can a 28:7 roster. (unless it was Dezz wage x2 or round abouts)

I would expect them to buy a dive like Leroy had

huh?

also, thats pretty stiff about the fine. least they were reasonable when challenging the fine. the cozzers probably know you'll get let off, but if they retracted a fine they're trying to issue it would make em look pretty stoopid.

Credit account linked to mortgage that for interest purposes is considered to be part of the mortgage balance

yeah me still no capish

i just signed up for cc cause its free for me, use it for all my personal bills/fines/interweb spendings. always pay in full every month. my idea is that this is showing the banks i can control my financials.

Is this something banks actually look at later on (when i get to actual borrowing), or am i just wasting my time with a cc.

Gives me practice to budget anyways

Ok

First thing to remember is that interest is calculated DAILY, then charged periodically (usually monthly)

Say you have a mortgage of $100k, get paid $5k a month (net) as ~$1150 per week.

Your pay goes into your offset account (normal bank account) and just sits there as you are using your credit card for everything.

While the money is in the offset account your interest is calculated on the loan balance minus the offset balance each day. So if you have $5k in there your interest is charged on $95k despite the borrowings of $100k.

The credit card is interest free for 30 days which allows you to have more days with the balance sitting in your transactional account offsetting the mortgage balance.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
