I only just stumbled on to your blog - well done. I have read a few articles and it provides some interesting Australian - based financial comment. Having a look at this post, I was just wondering, what do you think the ideal gearing ratio should be for 30-somethings, or indeed for any person earning money. Anyway, keep blogging, I am now a subscriber ;)
