The question is no longer if Australia will adopt these technologies, but how it will scale them to protect the nation's financial stability. The economic benefits of modernization are now too large to ignore.
There'll be some idiosyncratic risk in there from folks who don't have good credit standards, but I don't think it's a systemic issue. Where it gets a little more concerning would be if the Middle East crisis goes on for a long time, and you see a convergence of the concerns on AI valuations.
Back in the post-WWII era, being middle class meant something clear and attainable- a steady job, a home you could afford on one income, being able to buy a new car, and the ability to raise a family without constant money stress.

To qualify for this designation, a business must have increased its dividend payments (in terms of dollar amounts and not necessarily yield percentages) for at least 25 years.

Gerry Cardinale has visited Milanello twice in quick succession (at least by his usual timescale), and more frequent trips could follow.

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon has issued a warning about hidden financial risks as signs of deeper cracks begin to emerge in the credit markets. Dimon cited recent bankruptcies like Tricolor and First Brands as potential signals of broader instability, likening the situation to seeing "one cockroach" and knowing there are more.

For my first two years as a content creator, I saw it as a fun side hustle to do while in university. I posted TikTok and Instagram videos about video editing and fashion, and later transitioned to beauty when I found it to be the most lucrative. But when I went full-time with content creation after graduating from my university in 2024, I realized it was only the "dream" life on paper.
