good post.

The last sentence is something that a lot here do not consider.
Rental yield may be lower than historical standards, but deposit returns are lower still.

SO. If you have cash and it is going backwards in a bank and providing little to no income to live off. What do you do?
Realistically for most Aussies you have two choices. Shares and Property.
IMO Australians as a whole lean more towards property than shares due to lower volatility and the old saying "safe as houses" (regardless of whether this holds true or not)

If you think interest rates are going back to 7.5% again anytime soon, think again.
There a hundreds of posts here saying the same after GFC, yet here we are, lowest rates in history.

So if that is correct, then where does all the cash go?

Agree...

"Realistically for most Aussies you have two choices. Shares and Property."

Also Realistic you have two choices with Property...

Rent or Buy...

Everyone needs a roof over there head...

Property cash...I don't see it...

A small correction maybe...

All we are doing is moving chess pieces around the board...!...Owning to renting....renting to owning..

Demand is still high due to population growth...

As always the above is IMHO...
