Any mention of the 'R' word can trigger anxiety. But not all definitions of recession are the same, and not being in one doesn't necessarily mean people aren't feeling economic pain. @leonora_risse explains. @UniCanberra https://t.co/I6MUvGGYqC

The result of 3.8% is what the Reserve Bank expected and it doesn't automatically mean your rates will rise. 🏠 💰 @UniCanberra https://t.co/5hvY8a0BnI
