A majority of people use credit cards as a tool to make purchases such as airfares, accommodation, concert tickets, and general online or over the phone payments. However for consumers who let the promise of perks drive them to overspend, a rewards credit card can end up costing them significantly.

The banks don’t want the government to go ahead with their plans to raise the bankruptcy threshold from $2,000 to $10,000. The Australian Bankers Association claims that by raising it to $10,000 it will encourage Australians to run up bad debts.
What this change will mean is that companies that debtors owe money to will not be able to ‘chase’ their payments from the debtor until they have accumulated at least $10,000 of debt.
The proposed new law also would increase the “stay period” from 7 to 28 days, which would force creditors to wait a month before being able to take action to recover the debts owed to them.

Frightening new statistics suggest rent prices are set to rise by up to 50% over the next four years. A new study from Australian Property Monitors (APM) has suggested these figures are very real predictions for the immediate future.
“This is not good news for renters … we advise renters to lock in their current arrangements for as long as they can,” APM general manager Michael McNamara cautioned recently. These alarming predictions may suggest that renting will match that of mortgage repayments.
For those unable to afford a mortgage and have alternately turned to renting, it provides a very worrying picture for the next five years. This can only serve to put increasing pressure on living arrangements, with young people moving out of home feeling the brunt of the rising costs. […]
