We can't all have high paying jobs. Society simply doesn't work that way... Economics 101...

Must have been the subject Joe Hockey missed while he was busy protesting against uni fee increases

Granted and this is why we can't all be home owners

So what happens when these people that cant afford a house retire? They can't save enough to rent for the rest of their life on the pension....

You can't claim there is not a serious issue with housing affordability... it now costs a solid 10 times the median wage to get an average house... when our parents bought houses it was closer to 3

I'm not saying I have the solution, and neither do the ALP, but saying people should just earn more money as if that is something that is accessable to anyone and everyone was just stupid... especially when it came from someone that already had the public well offside and is perceived as being out of touch.

It also doesn't bode well to make comments regarding housing affordability that ostracise the poor when your own...sorry... "your wife's" mortgage is paid by the tax payer as "accommodation expenses"

Even more so when you had freshly called mothers claiming a far smaller amount "double dippers" whose activity (despite being specifically allowed) is "tantamount to fraud"

Does it really? From what I see is people over reaching because Dezz house wouldn't have cost that mine sure as heck didn't sure we don't live in blue chip suburbs but it's called compromise. So don't gimme that crap plenty of places to buy a house for $400k and a damn good one at that. Heck $600k will get you one of the best homes on the market!

So yes it is a problem however I think expectations have a lot to do with it.

400k is still ~7.5 times the median wage.

Shit is simply a LOT more expensive now.

The house I'm sitting in right now (mums) was bought for ~$40k in 1975 at ~5 times the average wage and is now worth $1m which is ~13.5 times the average wage.

well for starters not many singles buy property that's a reality and has been for last couple decades. Secondly when your mum bought I bet she didn't think it was 'cheap' or 'easy'

amen dezzmang.

Surely all these kunce on mega bucks aren't included in the range

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
