Are there any tradies out there who are getting plenty of work at the moment?

I have a few tradie mates doing different trades and every single one of them is struggling at the moment, so I am a bit curious.

I'm a tradie and struggling BIG time mate!!!

It ain't good

I'm not the only one either

Just stumbled across this article which provides some advice on when not paying your bills can start to affect your credit rating.
I was trying to find out the answer to "how long can a provider take to bill you and still require payment". I have been waiting for a bill for over 2 months and it hasn't arrived yet so Im wondering if it doesn't come in 6 or 12 months if I would still be legally required to pay it? I rang them after 3 weeks and asked for the bill and they said it would come in due course. Slightly off topic but the article might be of interest to some....and of course, the answer to my dilemma would be of interest to me as I still dont know!

Quite the contrary; having had the snip is completely pertinent to WCP's economic situation.

Should he ever find himself a few bob short, he would not be able to supplement his centrelink allowance with a trip to the sperm donation clinic.

Would they know they're getting blanks by the time I left with my moolah!!

the clinic will know pretty much straight away if there are no tadpoles in the ejaculate.

Me full-time with good - above good income with fully maintained company vehicle and wife part time with good income.

Quite a large motgage, sold an investment property early this year to fund upgrades ( kitchen / bathroom ) in current house, bought Mrs.Boon newish car.

I'd say I'm above comfortable but not smashing it. Stuck our necks out to buy large property 2 years ago.
