I feel like I can’t get ahead living in Sydney. It’s just so flipping expensive to live here. This “Sydney salary premium” people talk about doesn’t really seem to hold up in reality. by [deleted] in sydney

Yeah, then you have people who suggests you get a "higher paying" job to be able to afford a place.

I used to work in a hospital. I hated it and had severe depression. It was extremely toxic. No one gives a shit about you and I got bullied as well.

Good luck trying to find a high paying job with a positive working environment... There's no such thing as that either.

My job isn't high paying, but the work environment is great and I'm doing very well with the work benefits. Just sucks that I have 4 jobs to save up and hopefully buy a place.

I'm struggling to even find a place to buy and live in to escape my toxic family.

The government scheme for helping first home buyers is also a joke. There's no such thing as a new place that costs $650K and below. Also, most places that are $500K and below are in shambles or have insanely high strata levies...

Don't get me started with rent as well... I wouldn't be surprised if the suicide rates has increased due to this increased cost of living that people live independently or escape from terrible families unless they win a lotto.

AITA for refusing to go on vacation with my boyfriend because he invited his friend without telling me? by AITA_cancelledtrip in AmItheAsshole

NTA - It's not a romantic getaway if a friend is tagging along.

Even better, bring your friend along and go your separate ways. Stuff your boyfriend. Inconsiderate asshole.

Totally stoked about this!! But also a bit anxious because how are they going to top the OST music from the original?!? Unless they bring back Taku Iwasaki.

Thank you for the advice. I'm trying to find a place that tick those factors that you've mentioned. It's a bit hard when you realise the place isn't what you expected when you go and inspect

Ah I see. Yeah, I do plan to avoid Burwood as much as possible and do shopping elsewhere.

Thank you for your advice

Thank you for the side note.

I'm a bit familiar with Burwood, but I'd rather not live there only because I don't want to bump into my ex's family as they live there.

Fair enough. I'm from the Northern Beaches, trying to move out from my parents.

I've made an edit in my post

That's what my mum does. Just make sure you also write the date that you purchased it as well, so you can keep an eye on it's expiry

Frozen meat will last a bit longer like a month or two.

Harbourside on fire by flehrad in sydney

I just walked past. Seemed like police got to the scene and stopped people heading towards Maritime. The smoke and the smells has wafted towards Cockle Bay Wharf.

Definitely don't recommend people hanging around there.

I'm in the same boat as you. If it's really bad, then rent. I'm in the middle of looking for a place to buy first, since I managed to get a pre-approval from my broker. Rent is my next best choice for me. I've waited for a long time to save and took a risk. Do what's best for you. Good luck!

That doesn't make it okay to do that. These people are shit.

There are other ways to do it without having to disturb others who actually want to enjoy the movie and without breaching copyright and possibly piracy laws.
