This post is more about using psychology to improve our mind. So what has this got to do with Finance and gettting wealth? Everything.
A healthy mind is what is required to generate wealth. A mind that is bogged down, like a sinking ship struggles to survive, let alone achieve anything extraordinary. So the post here is a collection of notes that was taken during a course called "Change Your Thinking" which is based on Cognitive Training.
---------------------------
Brain constantly produce thoughts. Can have different interpretation or meanings. Eg what have you been up to? Why do people have different interpretation. Prior events may influence this. Personality, culture context (family values), lessons learnt early in life, our perception of people, how safe our environment felt when young.
Challenge our beliefs, not enough to just understand. Changed the way we think, then that will change the way we feel.
Thoughts - When anxious thoughts are faster.
CBT: counselling, stress management,
Change way we think, Changing the way we feel, change way we behave
- Include cognitive strategies, behavioural strategies, mindfulness strategies.
- aim to reframe ways of thinking: upsetting emotions, unhelpful behaviour.
Adaptive behaviour- will help us achieve goal.
Maladaptive- do things that are not helpful
Cognition - way we think, thoughts, beliefs, perception. Beliefs can influence thoughts.
emotions - anxious, angry, can lead to threat focused thoughts, lead to negative thoughts depression.
behaviour

Emotions - help us to survive, motivate behaviour, pleasant /unpleasant, adaptive /maladaptive
Temperanment- is the biological part of our personality, gene . Cannot change.
Can learn to react and think differently.

Line of Credit and Tax Consequences
I'm starting to look into this loan option known as the Line of Credit (LoC).
So far I found these websites
http://www.pwafinancial.com. au/index.php/resources/latest- news/122-deductible-interest. html
It gives a clear warning about using a LoC, originally for a property investment, then later use part of it for other investments. The tricky part is that any repayment may actually reduce the tax deductibility of the interest payments. Examples are given in the article.
So far I found these websites
http://www.pwafinancial.com.
This is the official Australian tax ruling of how LoC are to be treated and implications for deductibility of interest on the loan.
More to come.....

Budget 2015: Age pension eligibility criteria tightened in 'sustainable' overhaul
http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2015-05-07/budget-government-to-outline-changes-to-age-pension/6450946
Excerpt:
Excerpt:
At the moment, couples can own $1.15 million in assets on top of their family home to qualify for the part pension.
That threshold will now be reduced to $823,000 for couples meaning about 91,000 people will no longer qualify for the benefit, while another 235,000 will have their pension reduced.
But the bulk of retirees will either see no changes to their pensions, or will receive a small boost.
