3. Tripping over the $60k registration threshold and bringing land and buildings into the GST net when not necessary (28:38)
4. Placing a farm and a bach in the same GST registered entity, and then not realising that the bach is actually also in the GST net (45:03)

7. Registering for GST when your subdivision does not qualify as a taxable activity (1:05:42).
