Conference calls are soul killing.

The corporate world is soul killing. I stay away.

That board needs squares with-
"I don't have a question, more of a comment, really."
and
"We know you're all busy, so we'll try to make this quick."
Narrator: They did not make it quick. -

Scum…..
At 112 years old, the oldest person in the USA, and the oldest living American WW2 veteran, has become a victim of identity theft, and his bank accounts have been emptied....

There aren't many details but Bank of America restored his funds:
Mr. Overton lives very close to me but I haven't had a chance to ever meet him yet. He's a bit of a local celebrity, he still smokes cigars and drinks whiskey regularly based on the last interview I read.

i'm not sure how i feel about this. shifting the onus to retailers is pretty much the same as shifting the blame. i'm all for local retailers as they're the bread and butter of the industry and i'm known to prefer that personal touch shopping in physical stores but there's gotta be a better way around this whole issue..

Rental inspections suck.
Firstly, it's quite intrusive having someone come into your home to poke around.
Secondly, the agency gave me a time window of between 9:30 am and 5 pm, and asked me to be around if possible. Couldn't you be a bit more specific?
Tell them to go fk themselves. That’s a 9 hour window.

I probably should, but as a tenant in Australia you have very few rights.
I'd like to buy somewhere, but Melbourne (where I currently live) and Sydney (where I'm considering moving to for work) are up there with London or Silicon Valley for housing costs. For example, a two bedroom wreck in a desirable part of town sold for $1.9 million (about $1.4 million US) at the weekend.

@Graeme The Situation is not Funny at all but the Link is hilarious, to go to such great lengths to take Photographs of that Shite Hole is really funny to me. If the Price wasnt that insane that would actually be a great House, I love those patio Houses, they can, if done right, be a Gem in the middle of the City for you own. In Frankfurt and Offenbach are in some Parts of the Town 20 or 30 of them clusterd up, some are really great design wise.

@Steffen the sales agents go to great lengths to photograph houses in Australia. The Guardian published a story about it.
Sometimes it doesn't work. This million dollar dump in Sydney looks more like a horror movie than a dream home.
I agree that the place I posted could be fantastic with a lot of money and a good architect, and the price was a bit of a one-off. The suburb it's in, Middle Park, is probably the most expensive part of Melbourne on a per square metre basis. Plus there are a lot of downsizing retirees whose big homes are now worth $2 or $3 million, want something more central, and are willing to pay over the odds to secure it.

The Article is hilarious @Graeme , here in Germany the quality of the property usually matches the quality of the Photo, that goes that far that some cheap Rentals don´t even have Photos or at max one of the Door
That is correct and that is what brakes these propertys for people who are not insane, a view Million to buy and another view to revamp is a bit hefty, I usually tell my Customers that they should go for either or, that works most times. Cheap Bulding expensive renovation is of course better for us because of the way we get paid as architects in germany.
