My Sporting Prowess

In 3 days time, I will be training and racing against Olympic class rowers in Brisbane for the ultimate honour and glory of my Uni.

Somehow it seams fitting that a massively indebted uni would send a 60kg male to race in the open division against some of the toughest competing in Australia (I am told that this event is only just ranked below the nationals)

I will be racing in the blue ribbon event - The men's Eight (Seat Four)

And the slightly less prestigious - Mixed Eight Novelty Event (Who knows were I will sit, my suggestion to put 24 people in the boat, with the two top rows sitting on the lower rows shoulders, so as to create the allusion that we were a Roman Trireme was unfortunately shot down)


Note: For those of you with a current copy of the NSWRA rule-book, you may have noticed that at my current weight, I could in fact qualify for the women's lightweight division. However I am a man, and are quite certain that I am going to be the smallest bloke in my race - but at least I have good fundamentals.

My Homework Details

Yes. I completed my homework. For those people with nothing better to do the question was:

*Are Australian household over indebted? How has is the federal governments fiscal stance related to private sector debt?

Please hand your answer on my desk, no latter than Monday.

CLUE: The answer is Yes - due to asset bubbles in the housing market because of low interest rates due to low and less variable inflation rates and increased competition in the banking sector. Federal Surpluses aggravate this. In order for the economy to continue to grow, if the gov does not spend any money than households must fuel this growth by investing themselves. This will be funded primarily by loans from overseas, which in turn will aggravate our current account further. The government in turn can not raise interest rates in fear of causing massive defaults across the economy.

My American tutor was quite surprised that no one in my class had a credit card. He said uni students were meant to be the ones in society with the greatest chance of earning large amounts of money latter in life, and so should be targeted by credit card companies.

In other homework news I got 100% for my ECON3220 MONEY & FINANCE tutorial. This is despite the fact that my tutor keeps giving me the evil eye. 'Fight the Machine!'

I am so SMART!

Yes.

Specifically for two reasons (and one small raisin):

* I found out how to add a post
-AND-
* I remembered the stupid username and password 'Cheesy Girl' gave me.

Now things are going to change around here... and I know just the guy to do it... THAT GUY!
