    A simple $20 Claude sub just helped me discover I'm eligible for about 20k AUD from my previous construction project contractor (huge multinational) incorrectly classifying my role to avoid paying into portable long service leave.

    Why does life insurance sound fishy?

    STORY 
    I got a level policy (same price every year - higher upfront) over stepped (increases as you age) about 12 years ago at age 32 when i had mortgage and investment property loans and didn't want my wife at the time to be saddled with issues if anything happened to me. My financial planner did make...

    Why does life insurance sound fishy?

    STORY 
    I have very good life insurance that was set up for me through my financial planner a long time ago. To be a financial planner in Australia is now quite difficult after a royal commission into things just like this. Is a good policy with a reputable insurance company set up by a qualified...

    Out of all the blue collar guys I work with, the guys with a background in carpentry are the handiest to have around.

    Wow.. he did it. Good for him. I've used A1 as a boring business example to so many people. Their eyes just gloss over lol. Tommy has a lot of great advice. And he used to often team up with some guy that was an expert on creating systems in home service that was amazing. And also..

    So often overlooked. I met a residential cleaning business owner at a conference that lived in and targeted super wealthy areas. Struggled to get staff willing to travel out there lol.

    It's just my feeling and nothing to go off but I feel like the liability potentially involved in a towing company would be really high. I actually have so many things I want to write about this venture of hers but honestly don't know where to start :rofl: I work with truck drivers a lot. I...

    Claude recommended a domain drop catching business that specialises in .com.au domains. Probably the worst site with the worst UX I've experienced in years. How can people get it so wrong in 2026! I feel like I'm in that final scene of Dr Strange where you are just put into a neverending loop.

    Well... this IS technically a "random" thread.. so here ya go :rofl: He has a pretty new channel that's starting to get a lot of traction. I actually really enjoy his content and tongue in cheek spin on conspiracies. Seriously though.. what is the deal with the wife of Anthropic's CEO :clench:

    Spending 3 minutes spinning up a free google website dedicated to flaming a friend that's attempting to roast you in a group chat is... just delicious.

    We never learned it at school in the 90's. Probably because it was assumed something so easy didn't need to be taught lol. I still think nothing has changed with the top academic students. But the middle part of the Bell curve is definitely dumber. Maybe social media brain rot. I have had 2...

    It's a shame because I think there is a real need for a union in some areas in construction projects. But they just take things waaay too far.

    It's a 20 billion construction megaproject, they are the same level as me, just a blue collar worker, about 20 of them in my department, so I can't fire them. It's actually a very heavy union site so they can't really be fired at all. Well they could if our supervisors cared enough to go through...

    Sometimes I like the idea of starting something with a partner. But in the long run i know I'd hate it. I follow this guys channel and numerous times he has talked about how bad partnerships can be. It's always stuck with me.

    One of my closest friends is a Doctor. GP. Great guy to socialise with, travel with etc but when it comes to anything medical, the arrogance is truly astounding. His wife and he always have a variety of pills on hand. And she's on lexipro (which imo she really doesn't need). Really made me...

    Wish I'd realised this 9 months ago before I made a big push that took a lot of energy... "Leading by example only works if people care about the example. If they are coasting, your high output isn't motivating them; it is simply masking their laziness and enabling the behavior." Being...
