    we shall see. I’m in Auckland and have a large holding in OCA and properties.
    You've hit the nail on the head mate. This is like living in the trenches in the Vietnam war...just waiting for the next bomb to drop. When are the case numbers really going to go exponential ? When will I or my loved ones catch Covid ? Which of my favorite local business's will fail next ? Will some of my friends go broke ? What direction will this Government lurch in when they next make up policy on the fly ?

    I guess its easy for others that see no pain and feel no pain to wonder what all the fuss is about.

    But without the deaths - think about it.

    Its early days. The woeful level of ICU capacity that the Govt tried to spin has gone up has actually gone backwards according to leading specialists reports published last week and is now of third world standards. Hospitals will get overrun as sure as night follows day and then the bombing will really start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ds6mvK4olQ4

    Looking through to the other side of this unfolding apocalypse the upshot of all this is that once the widespread carnage is over elderly people will crave the security of living in a care suite or an apartment knowing they can move to a care suite when necessary with the security of knowing they'll be looked after and OCA sales will go gangbusters and at record high prices, (if our new CEO is smart enough to put the prices up).

    The outlook for the retirement housing sector is very good indeed.

    Beagle, you are clearly very stressed and anxious right now. Which is understandable. Maybe it's time to take a break again, so you don't fall back into the pattern of taking your stress and frustration out on others. You took exception to my civil request to leave the Cindy bashing out of every thread in this forum, but your reaction both publicly and via rep vote/PM, was excessive. I have tried to explain again, to you, why I asked what I did, but you refuse to even try to understand.

    You need to vent. I get that. But as I said before, there are already at least two appropriate threads for you to do that - one is a thread about Labour, and the other is the covid thread. I stand by my initial post and request that you simply use those threads to vent your frustration about the government. I fully appreciate that political decisions are relevant to OCA, but the Cindy bashing rants are not. You are not the only one here who is stressed. Maybe not for the same reasons as you, but stressed all the same. Everyone's stress is legitimate.

    Clearly, you see me as being callous and lacking empathy for the current situation for those of you in Auckland. You are wrong about that. I feel for you and I hope things change for you all, very soon. But you cannot use the situation as an excuse for your behaviour in these forums, or the way you react to people.

    All I am really asking is can we all please stay on topic so we can enjoy discussing OCA without all the emotional distractions. Pretty simple really.

    Welcome to the internet JAK. A bit of advice, if you dont like what you read on ST or facebook or Instagram etc etc just keep scrolling. You have gone and posted a novel completely unrelated to OCA. Doing exactly what you dont want lol

    Agreed, it’s a forum, people can walk down any path they want, main focus is on the OCA share. The government has a huge effect on these companies so it can all be relèvent in different forms.

    I brought some at $1.43 so be ready for it to dive.

    JAK - let me give you a piece of advice love that took me about a full decade on here to learn.

    Anyone can say thank you for the nuggets of gold other highly experienced investors share on here that help them make a lot of money. Words are cheap. The real way to express thanks is to show respect and give people a very wide degree of latitude with their posts all the time respecting that the nuggets of gold do not always come dressed up with pretty little bows and wrappers to your liking.

    When you start dictating terms on what you think posters should or shouldn't post in any particular thread, you've lost the plot. Sometimes being quiet is the hardest thing. Yesterday you said you were going to take a break from this thread. I think that's a very good idea for you. Nothing material is going to happen between now and 29 November. Have a nice day
