This is only the beginning, and it's only going to get way worse. Folks in these neighborhoods can't make ends meet on minimum wage. So there's no workers, and with rent going up because of the crazy real estate market, small businesses are shutting down left and right.

Nah, it ain't really the case. Folks can just decide if they wanna travel or if they wanna hustle in the boonies.
In Sydney, owning a property is expensive, even outside the city limits. Some people commute for hours to afford their own house, but still face difficulties with travel and payments.
This is what happens when you let "big business" take over - the crooks come in, making big promises and then going bankrupt. Tradespeople now work for these big corporations and are no longer capable of building a complete house on their own. It's nearly impossible for an individual to build their ... View More
This news is quite surprising! Let's have a little fun and shift the blame onto the parents. Wow, instead of blaming them, why not direct our attention to the real culprit - the G O V!
That's not proof, mate. Young blokes and sheilas still nab a property on their own, even if they ain't loaded, just in more affordable spots. Both me daughters, both being in their early 20's, done it. Can be done, mate, but reckon it ain't a walk in the park, gotta put in the hard yards, save up, a... View More
For the regular folks, it always required the hustlin' you laid out. But we copped our crib in '63, just two rooms though.

Aus society ain't how it used to be, not even 5 years ago.
This article is pretty ironic considering how the Murdoch press totally influenced voters to prioritize the wealthy. Aussies basically did this to themselves, and a prime example is when they rejected those reforms in 2016 and 2019 that would've made housing more affordable. But nope, voters decided... View More
Like Europe, the post-war generation lived beyond their means, depleting resources and forcing the next generation to bear the burden.
Some of my friends' young sons have purchased houses at the age of 25 through hard work, but they didn't expect to match their parents' level of home ownership.
Why is it that the American, British, Irish, and Canadian dream exists? Maybe it's because I'm thinking differently. Just saying.
My two badass daughters in their twenties will totally have their own homes by the time they're 45. Don't give up, just change your mindset!
All they desire is everything, but you must be willing to give up your luscious locks, manicured nails, daily java fix, and relaxing vacations. Having it all isn't possible, just consult the wiser generation.
Lmao, boomers. The numbers show that it's way tougher for us now than it was for them. It is what it is, but it would be awesome if those who got their houses for next to nothing would kindly stay out of the discussion. 😂
Too many people have invested into a bubble, so the economy cannot change without crashing.
I'll end up being a retiree without a home. Cheers, matey government.
The arvo you begin working is the arvo you start stashing. It mightn't be heaps at first, but as you earn more and amp it up, it'll obviously grow.

If you venture outside of the cities, you'll find that homes are reasonably priced and life is laid-back.
Did you seriously require a written report to figure that out? It just goes to show how clueless politicians are about the real-life situations!
No magic solutions mate, but tweaking negative gearing rules and cutting back on foreign investment would really make a difference.

Eliminate Airbnb and prohibit foreign investment.
Despite the unfortunate situation, where there is determination, there is a solution.
In a fun-loving atmosphere, people aspire for their dream home instead of compromising on what they can afford. Nowadays, it's all about one-upping our neighbors.
I've already staked my claim on a spot at Bondi beach for when I retire, so hands off!
What used to be the ultimate dream for Aussies is now just an impossible dream for working families 😢

I have repeatedly emphasized the same message for a considerable amount of time - if individuals choose not to partake in singing the national anthem, yet still reap the benefits of this amazing nation, they shouldn't anticipate excelling in our beloved sport.

He went all out at Freo every game. Good luck with what’s coming next. There’s always someone who can slide into that forward pocket position.
If he wants to return to Victoria, the club should be responsible for finding the best offer from any of the Melbourne clubs since he is already contracted. He shouldn't just choose one club.
He needs to bounce. He can believe what he wants, but I believe he's a racist jerk and needs to vanish.

I reckon it's bonza that the three generations have forged such a tight bond through their love for fitness. Lesley's message about its importance is fair dinkum.
Who are these ladies who just won't admit their age? What are they thinking? She's in great shape and has plenty of strength, but nobody is confusing her for a young chick, and that's totally fine.
All the ladies are looking pretty good and congrats to them...but someone definitely needs to visit a Specsavers!
It's bloody awesome to be fit and ripped, mate, no matter how you look. Absolute respect, no doubt.
So cool that they have a strong connection and share common interests - that's such a great thing!
Everyone looks healthy, except someone who needs to go to Specsavers.
That's awesome, they all seem like badass strong independent women to me. Their bond is fire.
Who are these women who insist on appearing younger? What are they thinking? She may be attractive and in great shape, but nobody is mistaking her for a youthful girl, and that's completely fine.
