    I believe you failed to mention why Woodbridge and Logan Central are so affordable. What's the point of buying a home if it's only going to be vandalised and broken into. Those suburbs are so cheap because they are plagued with crime.

    If you live in Sydney definitely not. My wife and I are on double that each and barely made it after saving all my wage for 5 years.
  • So if, you have a 70k salary in brisbane, and then you move to chinchilla...that 70k salary becomes a lot less im gonna guess. Sure seems like some major miss management on a macro level that have brought us to this point.
  • @markyburgs
    there are..... but they are either in undesirable areas or in the absolute sticks....
  • @gothops2632
    Hey mate, what's your ethnic background, if you don't mind me asking?
  • @AA.AA.399
    My 2 year old daughter always said: Oh No No No No😂😂😂
  • hmm, so if i get some plastic surgeries to help me attract a partner to buy a home with me then it would be a good investment
  • @prancer4743
    No no no next this is 2024 not year 2000🫣😳👀🇦🇺 next
  • I am going to call you out on your BS! If you are earning $70K, you are probably not living further out of the cities, in the more affordable areas. Houses ‘in the sticks’ are cheaper because they aren’t close to essential amenities. E.g. schools, medical, shops etc. Jobs ‘in the sticks’ are usually part time/ casual and are usually lowered paid. (Unless you are a Doctor or nurse). So younger people move to the cities to get a job, but housing is more expensive. The best way to beat this crap, is to start a YouTube channel like this one!
