Why the hell would you do that? Even with a blown engine, I just don't understand?

Me either. Seems such a waste.

I'm not exactly a hunter, but a lot of people seemed to be shooting the grass.

I think its the bloke with the handgun.

How's the redneck with the semi auto rifle AND the auto pistol shoved down his ass crack.

So in financial news, the government thinks that a household income of $80k would keep you satisfied.

Discuss.

I personlly think its a crock of shiat. I think the minimum conbined household income (Husband and Wife/ Defacto, No Kids) would need is around the $150k mark.

This is mainly aimed at SydneySiders. I know country parts and places out of the way would not have as higher living vcots.

80K as an individual would be ok, but it's not affluent.... Fuckking retards.

[Adam]

Well I know as a single income earner 80k alone would be ok, but certainly not a combined income, I to would say around the $150k mark would be ideal

Can afford clean water and a new cardboard box every few weeks.

80K would allow for bills to be paid and buy the odd nice thing on occasion but you certainly wont be living a high life.
(that is unless you are me than no amount of money would allow you to be bill free and comfortable )

Shaz you're probably the richest person on here.. could you survive on 80K?

IS that cash in hand after tax??

[skillionaire]

THE GOVERNMENT CANNOT DETERMINE WHAT AMOUNT OF INCOME I DEEM SUFFICIENT TO MEET MY NEEDS. THIS IS MARXIST COMMUNISM BULLSHIT AND IT MUST BE STOPPED.

NOT JOKING.

BE WARNED PEOPLE - LOOK AT AMERICA UNDER OBAMANATION - BE WARNED.

STOP THIS NOW.

MY LIFE IS NOT A PROFIT SHARING AGREEMENT.

I AM NOT GREEDY FOR WANTING MORE THAN $80K/PA FOR MYSELF. LET ALONE THE WHOLE HOUSEHOLD - SHE SHOULD BE BANKING $80K> ON HER OWN.

My love for you is undying but this statement is not accurate. Apart from the initial investment cost of the house, everything else out here costs more than a major city. Me and Alisha eat better for cheaper when we are away, we buy higher quality items for less when we are away also.

[B4TT]

MMmmmm..... Do other people get really frustrated at not being able to earn more money quick enough? honest serious question.. are most people here relatively happy with what they earn (to a degree) or frustrated as skillionairerules that they can not seem to increase their incomes fast enough, does it play on your mind continuously? how to make it happen.

Odd, I find the exact opposite heading up the coast to the 'rents place. Raw ingrediants are fresher and of better quality and sometimes much cheaper than in Sydney, seafood and meat products especially!

Is where they live considered a tourist centre? The main reason the prices out here for us are so high is due to the area being a high tourist traffic zone - thereby meaning most people don't REALLY care if they pay an extra couple of dollars for something when they're on holiday.

Yup, very much so... it is a tourist based economy, Only a small town of about 5-6000 people.. this can over double during the tourist times.. which is annoying as **** when you live there trying to get around as the infrastructure doesn't really support the number of people who still turn up, and you can't move on the beaches due to the tourists.. gah! but they bring money in, Dad generally does ok from the tourists too who want their cars serviced before leaving to travel back to whatever city they generally come from.. tyres and stuff like that too.

It is however a very different type of tourist destination to what you guys have, this is literally X number of people rock up and stay a week or two, spend then leave.... next lot rock up.. repeat, you guys probably get more day visitors/people staying only a few days hey?
Not to mention that people up this way are not really out for a fine dinning/luxury experience.. its more about families hitting the beach.. so I guess the price thing would be dictated by that.. I see your point!

[skillionaire]

Understand. I think you're right, the style of the destination and the stay dictates peoples expectation on the pricing.
