Re: Anyone Quitting Aus due to High Cost of Living

I'm struggling with the philosophy that when you become something you have to relinquish the right to have an opinion on it.

I don't think many people could uphold that remit.

Re: Anyone Quitting Aus due to High Cost of Living

The median is about $55k for full time workers but if you include everyone working it drops to about $44k.

So actually 50% of those in employment in Australia earn less than $44k gross.

Re: Anyone Quitting Aus due to High Cost of Living

I agree.

The 2.04 figure is from 504 data points.
One data point at the end of each calendar month for 42 years.

Using the same method the past:
20 years = 2.27
10 years = 2.23
5 years =...

Re: Anyone Quitting Aus due to High Cost of Living

Correct.

The 42 years from July 1969 to June 2011 = 2.04

The last 5 years is also 1.99

Of course the current trend will gradually lower it.

Re: Anyone Quitting Aus due to High Cost of Living

That is a personal statement but multiple posters who don't know you or your circumstances say you are wrong.

Sorry mate. You obviously don't know your own life. :rolleyes:

I don't think the family members that lost family to crocs up that way in the last couple of years would agree with the guide.

Re: Anyone Quitting Aus due to High Cost of Living
