Australia is beautiful and cleaner…but really, the cost of living is there is absolutely ridiculous.

I’d rather forgo the “kindness” of Aussies for a cheaper way of life in the US right now.MOVED FROM LAS VEGAS TO AUSTRALIA ABOUT 15 MONTHS AGO ! - AND I’M BORED AS HELL !!!! - I LIVE NOW IN CAIRNS.

THE PEOPLE SMELL LIKE CAMBELL’S SOUP BECAUSE IT’S SO FRIGGIN HUMID !

THE PRICES FOR CARS AND MOTORCYCLES ARE DOUBLE !

FOOD IS 3 TIMES THE PRICE !

A PAIR A SNEAKERS COST $300 SAME PAIR IN THE USA ONLY ABOUT $65

INTERNET IS 10 TIMES SLOWER AND ABOUT $100 DOLLARS A MONTH

TELEPHONE IS LIKE $300 IN THE STATES YOU CAN GET A PLAN THROUGH CABLE FOR ONLY $20 MONTH UNLIMMITED CALLING ANYTIME IN THE USA !

I DON’T THINK I NEED TO GO ON —- DO I ?

AUSTRALIA IS A RIP OFF BECAUSE YOU PAY 3 TIMES WHAT YOU’D PAY IN THE STATES AND MOST TIMES IT IS LOWER QUALITY !

CAIRNS ALSO IS HUMID AS HELL 6 MONTHS OF THE YEAR AND RAINS ALMOST EVERYDAY IN THE WET SEASON WHICH LASTS 3 MONTHS !

IF YOU WANT TO BE BROKE - BORED AND SMELL LIKE BO….. BOOK A FLIGHT TO CAIRNS !

OH DID I MENTION A NEW HOUSE AND LAND IS ABOUT ON AVERAGE $650.000.00 SAME HOUSE IN VEGAS ONLY $275.00

Thanks

now now then, let Smurtaza have his/her say. Very little constructive criticism so how about a few replies in support or confirmation of him/her being completely wrong. Some eg's please. Or does this also reflect other areas in Aus as well (Perth / Melbourne). Don't personally agree with a negative response being shot down, it's always good to hear 2 sides.

I go on the BBC 606 sports forums and there are particular individuals on there referred to as WUMs, wind up merchants who have nothing better to do but post vitriol and/or complete nonsense on opposing teams forum. I'm wondering if this is just a bored no hoper with nothing else to occupy his mind.
