  Bonza is a new Australian start-up airline with big plans to carve its own niche out of the Australian domestic aviation market when it launches in the second quarter of 2022. Operating a small fleet of Boeing 737-MAX 8s with 186 Economy seats each, Bonza won't be competing with Qantas and Virgin for business travellers. Instead, it plans to stimulate demand for leisure travel on new routes that aren't already being serviced to their full potential.

(Full reply below) (61:38-74:04) Jeff recaps an interview with Attorney General Mark Brnovich and his lawsuit against the Biden Administrations vaccine mandate. FMC Comments Regarding Bed Capacity.  Below are Dr. Feuquay's responses in red to your questions: The Mayor cited data from the county that shows zero bed capacity but your portal shows capacity. At FMC, we are consistently busy day-to-day. Even if we are at a zero percent capacity for one minute in time, we have plans in place to ensure that patients needing care are never turned away. The county's data source only shows a snap shot of our real-time data. Our internal team updates the hospital's information to the county every 4 hours. When the county posts that data, it is not always an accurate portrayal of what is happening in real time. When the mayor tweeted we were at 0% capacity, FMC only stayed at 0% capacity for a minuscule moment in time. This is due to daily discharges and moving patients between units based on the care that they need.   Is there capacity? Yes. If no capacity, is this a staffing or a bed issue? We have adequate staffing for the number of beds in use. Any details you can provide would be great. We are maintaining what we need to do based on our plans we've established. We are busy, but we have the capacity to take care of you. Do not forgo care, but please understand that things may not work as fast as they would say two years ago because we are so busy. But you will be safe and you will be able to receive care at FMC. We are not at a point where NAH is rationing care and we have not been there during this pandemic.

Some Australians may have to wait until early next year for their second shot of a COVID-19 vaccine due to supply problems, despite the government hoping to be finished by the end of October.

2020 didn't exactly turn out the way I or anyone expected at the beginning of the year. Just as the bushfires were receding, we started to learn about this virus in China that eventually made its way to our shores. The pandemic caused massive health issues in Australia and around the world. Many countries, including ours, have had two waves of Coronavirus. It kept many of us confined to our homes, it shut down major parts of our economy, and many major economies have seen falls of the GDP of 10% to 20%. Australia did pretty well, comparatively, but we also saw a surge in our unemployment, and we saw inflation plunge. But we got through it much faster than most expected, and while we're officially out of the recession, we're not out of the woods just yet. So today, I'd like to discuss some lessons from last year and see how they're going to affect our economy and property markets this year with leading commentator Pete Wargent. Some lessons from last year that will affect this year: The world economy is going to look very different moving forward. There's going to be a bumpy and slow recovery in Europe and the United States There will be a lot more trade tensions in the years ahead The pandemic increased tensions in China There are a lot of challenges still to go in the U.S. They will probably have a bumpy recovery In Australia, the Reserve Bank has stated they won't increase the cash rate for at least three years. The cash rate has a direct impact on mortgages, so this is important for property Established and first home buyers are back in the market Immigration has taken a hit, with mixed results Some Australians are returning home An oversupply of new apartments is less likely to be an issue Technology is being embraced faster and is making people more productive Debt is cheaper than it's ever been Changes to stamp duty will impact our property markets Strategic investors were protected from the ups and downs of 2020 by: Owning the best assets Having financial buffers in places Setting up the right ownership structures Having insurance Obtaining holistic advice We discuss why people want to hear negative forecasts You need recessions and downturns to test resilience Predictions for 2021: 8% to 12% price increases for Sydney and Melbourne The increase will affect houses more than units Brisbane will see 6% to 10% or more Perth might experience a rebound as well Links and Resources: Metropole's Strategic Property Plan – to help both beginning and experienced investors Pete Wargent Next Level Wealth Pete Wargent's new book Low Rates High Returns Shownotes plus more here: Here's what the next 12 months have in store for our economy and property with Pete Wargent Some of our favourite quotes from the show: “I think one of the effects of COVID is that inflation around the world is going to remain weak.” – Michael Yardney “There isn't the large construction pipeline with lots of new dwellings coming there, so I can't see an oversupply looming in our big cities.” –  Michael Yardney “I slept much better because I actually had set myself up by expecting the worst, and being prepared for the worst, I guess, but looking forward to the best.” – Michael Yardney PLEASE LEAVE US A REVIEW Reviews are hugely important to me because they help new people discover this podcast.

Some Australians stranded overseas have described the restrictions on their return home as "a slap in the face", after movie stars and politicians were granted travel exemptions - while they've been left destitute abroad for months.

Labor was right. Some Australians do negative gear up to six properties ... they just happen to be on the Labor front bench. It's not illegal, but it is hypocritical.

Some Australians take radical steps to reconcile their sexuality or sexual identity with their religious beliefs. But what are the impacts of purported conversion therapies on individuals and communities?

Welcome to Finance & Fury. Today we’re back talking again about property…and more specifically, buying property overseas. Some Australians have given up on the dream of buying property in Australia due to Australia’s high property prices. An increasing number of Australians, including Millennials, are investing abroad with the United States as the most popular destination. They’re priced out of the market here, and are looking to other areas and other countries for options. Property prices are still 32.4% higher compared to five years ago. There has been a 29% increase in Australian residents purchasing properties abroad.   Pros Cheaper house prices, which makes it easier to get into property based around the deposit requirements Better yields on property overseas Australia ranges from 2% - 5% Philippines from 6.13% A.E. from 5.19% Costa Rica from 7.48% Indonesia from 8.61% Provides diversification outside of the Australian market   Risks Finding the right property, knowing the area that the property is located, knowing the market and where that market is going. What Country? Where in the country? What type of property? It is typically best to see the property you are going to be buying Political and government risk Currency movements Buy a property for $300k overseas – if the Australian dollar appreciates by 5% compared to the US, you lose $15,000 in value Reduced or additional returns depending on whether the AUD appreciates or depreciates against the property’s domestic currency (i.e. The USD if the property is purchased in the US) Differences in tax In the US there are tax incentives to purchase the property that you live in, compared to Australia Double Taxation Agreement (DTA) – Most western countries have DTAs so that your income is not taxed by the two countries. This avoids the potential scenario of double taxation on your rental income if you were to rent the property out. Legislation changes – Overseas government or domestic making changes For example, QLD put an absentee tax on land if it is over $350k Banking legislation and interest rate changes Difficulty in Management The biggest challenges faced when purchasing a property overseas is not only finding a suitable property manager to protect your interests, but also understanding and monitoring the market. Distance and language barriers Example – If someone stops paying rent, the laws may be different and it may be hard to get action on it    As always thanks for listening!
