Context pls

Extended cliffs:

- pulled over on way to work a month ago

- area is Knox / Scoresby / I'm fked

- recognise officer from hwy patrol TV show

- also recognise she's pulled me over / fined before

- oh fk x 3

- your car is unregistered

- what?

- you sound surprised to hear this

- gooby pls I always pay it and I haven't seen a letter from VicRoads saying it's due

- bad luck, my partner and I were discussing it and we always remember to pay our registrations on time

- letmetellyouwhythatisbullshit.jpg sorry officer but I have 3 sets of registrations and have always depended on the letters to tell me

- bad luck here is $738 fine for rego being 6 days overdue, incidentally the cost of rego, also I can't let you drive any further unless you pay rego on the spot with a smart phone = enjoy $1500 worth of fees

- pay rego while she watches

- is it really necessary to give me a huge fine given it's pretty obvious I wasn't avoiding paying rego

- bad luck we knox hwy patrol / is really dolan, take it up with civic compliance

- call VicRoads ask wtf happened to my letter

- VicRoads say we sent it out like 2 weeks ago dude

- never got it...what about a reminder notice?

- not til 2 weeks after it's due dude

- thanks I guess

- write long winded letter explaining situation to civic compliance, acknowledging fault but pleading for situation to be taken into account

- official warning issued

- Birds does dance

- Birds unsure to be grateful of warning or ungrateful of fine that was result of system fail in the first place

The average wage is $53k p/a?

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

The ABS says the average individual wage in Australia in November 2013 was $57,980 before tax

close

Finally, something I'm above average at in life.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Average wage is 75k

dont get confused with median

fwiw

I used median in the first example as I feel it represents the poorer people more accurately but then used average in the second as i CBF looking for the 1975 median fig when average shows up on the first result

average is 75K for Full time workers.

of all workers it;s 57 and change.

and we were dissing maccas employees so assumed it was all employees not full time.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

I can.

Houses ARE selling. People ARE buying them. Let the market do its thing

at unsustainable interest rates....

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

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.

No. It was an expensive house then too. My point is the comparison (then to now)

[alr33x]

What was the multiple of wage tho to prove point ?

Fair call. I used average full time as the comparison

I would be happy letting the market do it's thing - and to a degree I do believe in free market - but the Chinese, my god the Chinese...

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Yeah basically. Just to illustrate how the same house has become unaffordable on average wage. Obviously good capital gains in Brighton but it was a premium suburb back then too

[alr33x]

Based on the average it cost your mum 5.7 times the average wage. I don't think it's changed all the drastically factoring dual income and interest rates

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

There is no duel income...

[HEKT1K]

at unsustainable interest rates....

Shhh you work for a bank lol

So much fuss over house prices.. as the baby boomers die off and bequeath their estates to the gen Y flogs, order will be restored

[dezz]

Need to get myself a dual income

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]
