    Australian interest rates will not come down in 2024.
    Unemployment is low , property prices are high , electricity prices are rising due to the costly transition , fuel prices are still high , driving costs and prices up.

    Interest rates went up at a record rate, the cost of living has double in 18 months and people have extended themselves to the max to even buy a place. Simply put life has become too expensive and it doesn't matter how much you earn. No substantial payrises in the last 10-12 years.. and on the horizon there are more mass redundancies, well being has been incinerated - yet people are told to 'just hang in there' .. yeah right.
    BTW this doesn't factor in the maintenance costs which is the real destroyer for owner/occupiers.. it keeps putting you further behind. Really horrible feeling.

    Australia is quickly resembling Japan in 1989 when the total valuation of residential property hit $5 Trillion what followed was 2 decades of stagnant growth and collapsed valuations . Australia last month hit $10 trillion for 11 million properties . GDP falling is a red flag signal

    God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables, slaves with white collars, advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of the history man, no purpose or place, we have no Great war, no Great depression, our great war is a spiritual war, our great depression is our lives, we've been all raised by television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars, but we won't and we're slowly learning that fact. and we're very very pissed off.

    When the main focus is on the price of credit (interest rates) in relation to a mandated depreciating (inflation) currency, the outcome is already predetermined - it’s only a question of when

    22:30: We're here with inflation? I'm still experiencing price rises everywhere. Not at the same level as previously, but just small stuff like a fruit salad at my local deli, going from $5 to $5.50. Modest 10% inflation here and there. Nothing major. And filing up with BP ultimate the other day at $2.53.
