This is produced from my scratchy notes and quick numbers. This post is not financial advice. Do your own research. 🚀🌚 The Business Pureprofile is a … Continue reading Pureprofile (ASX:PPL) Analysis →
Simple Business Activity Statement (BAS) Form Calculator
I’ve found that if you have a small business that is registered for GST, and one that is new, you often don’t have your accounting package set up yet (e.g. Xero). With minimal transactions and no complex activities, sometimes it doesn’t make sense to pay for the accounting package until it is really needed. Then … Continue reading Simple Business Activity Statement (BAS) Form Calculator →
BoothCon 2020 Presentation: “You’re a tech business. Know your stuff”
In January 2020, I had the pleasure of presenting some (basic for some, not for others) tech knowledge for photo booth operators in Australia.

A quick review of full self driving cars and getting them made legal. My focus in on Victoria, Australia, but assume all countries and states will have similar issues.

Qantas Domestic Business Class Review
In December 2019, I decided to fly Qantas back from Sydney to Melbourne as the flight time suited better than my usual preference of carrier (Virgin Australia). Qantas had a conveniently timed 8.30pm departure, whilst Virgin only had 8pm or 10pm. So I booked Qantas. Before the flight, I thought why not blow a few … Continue reading Qantas Domestic Business Class Review →
Reboot: Probably More Than You Ever Wanted to Know about Starting a Global Business
My Rating: ★★★★★ Written by Jodie Fox, former founder of Shoes of Prey which was shut down in 2018. I’d been following Shoes of Prey since very early on. They launched in 2009, and I launched my first business in 2011, so they were probably the start-up of the time when reading startup news. I … Continue reading Reboot: Probably More Than You Ever Wanted to Know about Starting a Global Business →

Also great to get a feel for a bit more of the politics behind space and the big contractors who … Continue reading The Space Barons: Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and the Quest to Colonize the Cosmos →
