@Keg767 I agree it treats investment income differently to regular income. As the old system also did, with much direr consequences, for the last 27 years. So I’m not losing sleep over it.

[Dean Lombard @darkdirk]

@Keg767 You picked a totally weird edge case example that is extremely unlikely.
But the other issue with it is that you only pay CGT when you sell the asset, not every year. And the minimum rate is designed to stop people disposing of assets in a zero income year to avoid tax.

Another example of sloppy information provision on Melbourne’s PT network. This map is really useful; but it’s on the wrong side. “You” is on the opposite platform. If you were unfamiliar with this area, trying to follow the directions to the bus stops would just get you confused

@DrewPavlou They have witnesses, and the names of some of his other alleged victims.

Note the typo. So… these notifications are manually typed each time instead of assembled from prewritten chunks? That seems insanely inefficient
