And it's 466 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 4: not often, especially if we're not good at saving or 467 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 4: we're not good at investing, we are presented with a 468 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 4: lump sum opportunity to get ourselves ahead. So for me personally, 469 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 4: I would just whack it into my investment. Like, but 470 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 4: I already have a setup, tried, true strategy, Like I'm 471 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 4: when it comes to money, if you dug under the covers, 472 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 4: kind of boring, Like I'm not a massive spender on 473 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 4: clothes and stuff. I don't know if people even pay 474 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 4: attention to that anymore. Like I feel like I wear 475 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 4: the same jumper, are the same jeans on rotation every 476 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 4: single week. It actually really annoys our video wayit to 477 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 4: Brook because she's like, Victoria, you wear the same thing 478 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 4: over and over again, so it looks like we recorded 479 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 4: everything within the same day. 480 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 5: That's un lucky for you. That's so lucky for you. 481 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 4: That looks a lot like not a me problem. My 482 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 4: hair might be different because I didn't wush it one day. 483 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,159 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, Anyway, for me, it's about putting future you 484 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 4: in the best possible position. And if you are ridiculously 485 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 4: excited about getting your tax return, I get it. But 486 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 4: that's probably because you don't have access to a lot 487 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 4: of funds right now. Like when it's five hundred dollars 488 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 4: but you've already got one hundred thousand dollars invested, you're 489 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 4: kind of like, Okay, cool, I'm going to do the 490 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 4: right thing. But when you get five hundred dollars and 491 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 4: you don't have five hundred dollars in your account, you 492 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 4: just see endless possibility. I do want you to seriously consider. 493 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 4: Have I got an emergency fund set up? Could I 494 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 4: top that up? What could that look like? Have I 495 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 4: got some bills due that I could take some pressure off, 496 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 4: like future me for because as much as like an 497 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 4: air wrap or a pilarate's reform or or anything good, like, 498 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 4: I get it, I want that stuff too. Is fun. 499 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 4: I can almost promise you that, oh, five hundred dollars 500 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 4: maybe I'll put two hundred and fifty dollars on credit 501 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 4: to my energy company so that I don't get bit 502 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 4: in the butt next time that comes around. And future 503 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 4: is going to be like, oh, that was so good 504 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 4: when your bill does come and it's fifteen dollars. So 505 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 4: for me, I think it's about driving home what is 506 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 4: important to you. I know you set everything up, but 507 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,239 Speaker 4: could you, you know, turbo charge your investment a little bit, 508 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 4: or turbo charge your savings account. I hate the fact 509 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 4: that we're in the middle of a cost of living crisis. 510 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 4: We're going to need that money at some point. Yeah, 511 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 4: it's not free money. 512 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 513 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 6: And on the government co contribution thing, am I right 514 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 6: in remembering that that is mainly targeted at low income earners, 515 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 6: So check that you qualify before you put the money in. 516 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 517 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 4: I would go to the ATO website and just check 518 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 4: what's going on. I mean, you want a turbo charge 519 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 4: your suberannuation. I'm all about that because if you contributed 520 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 4: it today as well next tax return, you can claim 521 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 4: that contribution on tax again, which that you're just like 522 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 4: taxi taxi taxi can work for you. But I also 523 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 4: so I think, how can you get ahead. How can 524 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 4: you put future you in the best possible position. 525 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 5: I get it. 526 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 4: Get a little treat. Yeah, like I'm a sweet trearee. 527 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 4: You are never going to catch me going, oh my god, 528 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 4: I can do the fire. I could do financial independence, 529 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 4: retire early and save all my money. That's not for me, 530 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 4: but I am about Let's create a secure financial house 531 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 4: that you can live in comfortably. 532 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, let's do that. Yeah, put future you in the 533 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 5: driver's seat. 534 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 8: Cool. 535 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 5: I love you. 536 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 3: She'll think you're so cool and that's why you're where 537 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 3: you are today. 538 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 4: Exactly right, crying and I don't have a reformer. H yeah, 539 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 4: yeahsolutely absolutely all right. So our DM this week. Hi, 540 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 4: she's on the money. My fine works from home and 541 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 4: I'm on the road all the time. We split bills 542 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 4: like power and internet fifty to fifty. But he can 543 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 4: claim part of that back on his tax return. 544 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 5: Well I can't. 545 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 4: I'm not sure if it really makes a big difference, 546 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 4: but it's been on my mind because our last power 547 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 4: was huge. He's getting a really big tax return surprise coincidence, 548 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 4: and I've got an unexpected bill from a payroll error. 549 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 4: I agreed to fifty to fifty when I moved in, 550 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 4: so I've never had an issue with it, but now 551 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 4: I'm wondering if I'm kind of subsidizing his work. 552 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 5: From home costs. 553 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 4: Do other people take this into account when splitting bills 554 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 4: with a partner or housemates or am I just overthinking this. 555 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 7: I'd be curious to know how often you're this person's 556 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 7: on the road, because it sounds like they're like a 557 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 7: lot of their job is kind of like they're often 558 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 7: not even home at all. 559 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 3: I would be a bit irritated that, Like, like. 560 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 7: If it was the other way around, if I was 561 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 7: working from home all the time and my partner was 562 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 7: not really and then we had a huge energy bill, 563 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 7: they wouldn't even have to use expend any mental energy 564 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 7: at all. I would be like, Wow, I'm home most 565 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 7: of the time. I'm going to figure this out so 566 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,679 Speaker 7: you don't have to be paying fifty to fifty. Also 567 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:57,679 Speaker 7: that the fact that you can get a little bit 568 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 7: back on tax so you can claim in on tax 569 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 7: would absolutely come to my mind, and I, like the 570 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 7: other person wouldn't need to think twice about it. I 571 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 7: would already be like, cool, this is the split because 572 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 7: I'm always home, You're never home. 573 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 3: You know, like it's so annoying that that's. 574 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 4: Not just like a default thing but just goes to 575 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 4: logic and putting the other person in the best possible suction, because. 576 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 7: Then you're you feel awkward and you've got to like 577 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 7: maybe you will have a fight, maybe you won't, maybe 578 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 7: they'll get angry maybe, and so it's just like anxiety inducing, 579 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 7: you know what I mean. So that sucks, and I'm 580 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 7: really sorry. But with that, it's probably pretty clear where 581 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 7: I sit on this. I think absolutely really like it 582 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 7: should be about and I think this is the right 583 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 7: word equity. 584 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 4: No. 585 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 7: Yes, And if you're home far less, like if you're 586 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 7: home every evening, then maybe like from five pm onward, 587 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 7: maybe it kind of all comes out in the wash. 588 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 7: But still you still shouldn't be paying as much. But 589 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 7: if you're like on the road a lot and you're 590 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 7: barely home except for on the weekends or something like that, 591 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 7: then it's a no brainer. It's a no brainer that 592 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 7: your partner should be paying like seventy percent depending on 593 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 7: figure out how how often your home. If it's thirty 594 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 7: percent of the time, then you pay in thirty percent 595 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 7: of the energy, you know what I mean. 596 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't know. I feel like it's a 597 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 3: no brainer for me. You should definitely be paying less. 598 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, to play Devil's Advocate. Interestingly, energy off peak rates 599 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 6: are during the day, so it's actually cheaper to use 600 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 6: energy during the day than it is in the evenings. 601 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 6: Generally speaking, I would say, yeah, kind of like similar 602 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 6: to working out if you have a provider, or maybe 603 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 6: look at change into a provider. Some providers allow you 604 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 6: to track your hourly energy U see, which I think 605 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 6: that's a really good way to look at it, because 606 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 6: if I think about me working from home, the only 607 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 6: significant electrical cost is heating cooling, like when I'm not 608 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 6: using lights because it's daytime, so I don't actually need 609 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 6: to turn the lights on. 610 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 5: I will tell you, also pretty good with the heater 611 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 5: in the cooler anyway. 612 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 6: Well, I was gonna say, the way that we've kind 613 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 6: of worked it out is we'll turn the heater on 614 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 6: in the morning when we're both home. As soon as 615 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 6: it hits like eighteen degrees, like a comfortable temperature. We 616 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 6: then it to like our holding temperature, which is like 617 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 6: thirteen four. 618 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 5: Would have left it on that anyway, correct, So. 619 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 6: Like we've kind of worked out and that was something 620 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 6: we had to kind of trial and error, Like we 621 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 6: went through a phase where our heating bill was astronomically high, 622 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 6: and absolutely I recognized, Okay, well, i'm home a lot 623 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 6: like does need to be on let's change that. But 624 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 6: I think looking at the breakdown actually would probably be 625 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 6: quite interesting because if I reflect on, like me being 626 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 6: at home, the electricity usage would actually be relatively minimal 627 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 6: outside of here and calling, which we've obviously now found 628 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 6: a middle ground on. Obviously, like me and my partner 629 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 6: are spoke about it. He's really happy for it to 630 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 6: be fifty to fifty, he says, up late when I 631 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 6: go to bed. So for us, it kind of does 632 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 6: come out in the wash, but it would be if 633 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 6: that's something that's on your mind, so you're stressing about, 634 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 6: I think, exactly as you said, finding a way to 635 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 6: quantify the difference in usage the difference in cost is 636 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 6: important because it may also be that you might discover, 637 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 6: oh well, actually in the evenings when we're both home 638 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 6: and peak usage is really high and we're running the 639 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,239 Speaker 6: TV and the dryer and cooking dinner and doing all 640 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 6: of those things. That accounts for a lot of our 641 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 6: electricity usage. And you don't realize it so, and it 642 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 6: could be the other way. It could be that the 643 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 6: daytime usage is absolutely eating up, in which case completely 644 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 6: agree equity is the way to go if that's what 645 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 6: you want, and that's very fair and valid. But I 646 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 6: think having an understanding of how it actually all breaks down, 647 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 6: because it isn't quite as black and white as whoeverres 648 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 6: grown is what the usage equals, it's just worth considering. 649 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 6: I would say, it's a. 650 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 5: Really good pose, that's really fair. 651 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 4: I feel like I'm kind of on both sides, Like 652 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 4: if you're working from home more consistently, I would also 653 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 4: assume that your grocery bill is being impacted by this, 654 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 4: because maybe they're eating lunch at home or regularly. I'd 655 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 4: be like, Okay, how do we split this and what 656 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 4: is fair? I mean, for me personally, it's never been 657 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 4: something that I've had to discuss. I've never lived with 658 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 4: someone who worked from home, and if they did, it 659 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 4: was like an odd rarity because I had housemates all 660 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 4: prior to COVID and we weren't allowed to work from home. 661 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 4: And now my husband works from home a bit. I 662 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 4: work from home a bit, and it's just not something 663 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 4: I've really thought of. But I do think the equity 664 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 4: thing is the fairest because it's like, well, I don't know, 665 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 4: maybe your partner isn't as considerate as a jest in 666 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 4: this situation and does have the heater on twenty four 667 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 4: all day while you're out, all the lights are on, 668 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 4: like they leave the fridge open. Who knows at which 669 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 4: point I would probably be saying, Hey, how do I 670 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 4: have this conversation? I don't think any conversation is unwarranted, 671 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 4: but like I would be open to what their thoughts 672 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 4: are on that first, not going to them with a solution. 673 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 4: I'd be like, hey, do we need a solution for 674 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 4: this because this kind of seems crazy? Or blame the 675 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 4: Shees on the Money community and say, oh, someone in 676 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 4: the Shees on the Money community you was saying they 677 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 4: slip their bills like this. Differently, should we be relooking 678 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 4: at ours because you work from home and seeing what happens, 679 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 4: because I think that that can be a little less 680 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 4: confrontational because you're right back, Like if you get the 681 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 4: bill and then you have to have the conversation, that 682 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 4: can be quite confrontational, and they'll be like, oh, I 683 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 4: don't what the hell you said you. 684 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 5: Pay fifty cent? 685 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 4: While you're going back on that as opposed to an open, 686 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 4: honest conversation about. 687 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 5: Like, okay, times have changed. Yeah I saw this thing. 688 00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 5: Could this benefit us? 689 00:28:59,360 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 8: Yeah? 690 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, that's probably where I'm sitting. 691 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 6: What did everybody else say? 692 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 4: So obviously we all had thoughts and feelings, but we 693 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 4: first asked a few questions. First question was, what is 694 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,719 Speaker 4: the work from home situation in your house? Forty eight 695 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 4: percent of you said one or some of us work 696 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 4: from home, forty percent said none of us work from home, 697 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 4: and twelve percent said all of us work from home. 698 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 4: We then said what would you do in this situation? 699 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 4: Thirty six percent said, add the tax refund to the bills, kitty, Oh, 700 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 4: that's a good idea. Yeah, thirty two percent said it 701 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 4: just based on usage, and the other thirty two percent 702 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 4: said keep it fifty fifty. Now, we also went to 703 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 4: the community and said, guys, what is your two cents? 704 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 4: First person said he should only be claiming tax back 705 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 4: on the portion of bills he paid, not the full 706 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 4: bill anyway, which is true. Yeah, it's a good point. 707 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 4: Next person said, tell them to buy you something pretty. 708 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 6: I'm not mad about that as a solution, I'm going 709 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 6: to be really honest. 710 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 4: I put it in there because I was like, that's funny. 711 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 4: Next person said, these situations can turn into tit for tat. 712 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 4: For example, I'm not home on the weekends, though I 713 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 4: go to footy all day. Yeah, and I don't use 714 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 4: any power. 715 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 5: What about that? 716 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 4: So I think we need to just zoom out and 717 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 4: have a holistic view of these things before we start 718 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 4: a conversation. Next person said, Internet built same either way. 719 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 4: Electrocity would be hardly a little different overthinking, but it's 720 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 4: good to be aware. Next person said, I work from 721 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 4: home two or three out of three days. I try 722 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 4: not to add edy additional power minus my laptop because 723 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 4: that shit is no true. 724 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 7: Yeah. 725 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 4: Next person said if this was a housemate, I'd probably 726 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 4: have an issue, but with a partner, I think it 727 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 4: balances out. 728 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 5: And then another person said, equity is not equal. 729 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 4: Fifty to fifty only works if you are using and 730 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 4: earning exactly the same, Otherwise you need to split proportionally. 731 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 4: You've been in the comment section back it sounds a 732 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 4: little bit like me. And then the last one that 733 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 4: I'm going to leave you with is a really good 734 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 4: contribution and they said Finder dot com dot A, you 735 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,239 Speaker 4: actually has a really good breakdown of what worked from 736 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 4: home costs look like. 737 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 5: Have a look and go from there. 738 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 4: Oh lover, we've got a little resource, we've got a 739 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 4: little opinion.
