Yeah I heard abt the income tax in oz and nz. 40+% is ridiculous.

Hardly spend on other stuff anyway. If i ever move to oz or nz u can be sure a ferrari is definitely on my to-buy list. Just a hobby anyway.

Having said that, i wun migrate just for cheaper cars.

Don't go by here say boy, even one is making aud$180k a yr with ZERO deducible the tax is ~31%.
If u make aud$250k a yr tax is ~36%
Aud$300k it's only ~37%
Aud$400k then u hit 39.8%

How many ppl making such $$ there.

The lugs of the watch is already sticking out off your wrist...watch is way too big for you....

Yes,it is big at 47mm but it sits very well on my wrist unlike my pam 104 which is 44mm keeps moving unless i buckle very tightly which is uncomfortable..

Millionaire also cannot buy rolls royce because the car costs more than 1mil. Unless preowned lah.
Road tax, petrol, maintenance....after buying the car these are recurring costs.

Actually if I own a rolls royce I will get a chauffeur. There is a limit where u can drive your own car - bentley flying spur and rolls royce shld be chauffeured in, IMHO.

And yacht is a long term goal for me lah.

Now mainly is cars, watches and vacation. Change cars every 2yrs on the average and 4 vacations per year. Expensive but the latter creates memories which are priceless :)
That's why you need photography to capture those memories. ..

Don't get a watch just because it is more expensive then the other. :s22:

Get a watch simply because you like them and it suits you is the best way to go. :D
