So my decision is that I would like to invest in UK as here in Aus everything is so expensive and there are things like stamp duty and substantial capital gains tax etc. 

@Nathan YarnellYou have been given terrible advice and running your business in that manner is a good way to lose your shirt.

I think if my first deal was a BRRRR I would have lost my shirt haha.

He really liked using the automatic paper folder I had and begged to do it, so I taught him to run my client invoices through the folder, put it in the envelope so the address was in the window and put the stamp on. 

In fact, some of their "advice" is counter to what my expert electricians/HVAC guys tell me is the right thing to do, but their stamp of approval is what can save you from an expensive lawsuit!

I'm thinking of doing a custom t-shirt, home depot gift card, and a bottle of liquor. 

I tried to get some .gov assistance, they gave me a food stamp card of $25/month. 

Based on the number of people that lost their shirt back in 2008/2009, my guess is that the majority of people were doing the things you described and it didn't work out so well for them last time.

Up..End.I wouldn't get those inspirational words on a t-shirt, you're going to lose it when the market tanks. 

Between stamp duty and capital gains tax here in Australia it destroys property liquidity and that makes it actually harder for people to get into the housing market - be they young (first home), upsizing (growing families) or down sizing (elderly).You need to not impede volume and liquidity, we’re living the other side.
