I got mine the other day.

I was trying to figure out the best way to put it to good use, but after tonight’s budget, they’ll be getting it back in tax soon anyway.

Either that or donate it to the Liberal Party campaign fund. : :hihi:

Got mine yesterday (finally).

It'll sort of wind up going towards my home deposit. When I say sort of, I mean that it's now put me over the line for paying the ~$4200 it costs me in cash to go to Uni each semester (barring textbooks, which are about another $500 again). So I get to stop saving for that, and start pouring every spare cent into the FHSA account again.

Lets see, you haven't been in the work force long enough to warrant the $900 -ie: you haven't paid enough tax- but you still want the handout!! C'MON!!

And judging by your spelling I think you should have stayed there a little longer.

Default Consider it stimulated My K-Rudd

To my surprise i scraped in for the $900 due to it being calculated on last years income for which i spent 6 months of it as a poor 4th year apprentice haha.

I thought to my-self how can i help Australia out and do a little something to help my-self out, make my time behind the wheel a little be easier, focus more on the road and surroundings and less on whether I'm within 2km/h of the speed limit.

So thanks to the friendly bunch at Strathfeild and the federal government's let's spend evry sent we have approach, I walked away with a Bell STi-XR radar detector .

Thanks K-Rudd, I'v never made a donation thou the WA "Let's set ridiculous speed limits then "hide in the bushes" Speed enforcement strategy and now never will.
