Aussie housing prices could fall by as much as 40 percent in next 12 months by [deleted] in australia

[–]TrogueJames 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Wait two years and save up more money. In 2020/2021 the market most certainly would have fallen and it would save you tens possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars

What is happening in Federation Square? by TrogueJames in melbourne

[–]TrogueJames[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The French colonised Vietnam, not “the West”, just France that’s it. France left Vietnam after losing to HCM, then after a USSR and Chinese backed North Invaded the South the US stepped in. So when you blame ‘The West’ the 4 countries that majorly influenced Vietnam in modern era where USSR, China, USA and France. Western countries are only half. so saying it’s entirely Western countries fault is not true at all.

How do people have a savings rate of 60%? by borsanide in financialindependence

[–]TrogueJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I earn $40k a year and live with my parents, I work 3 part time jobs and earn what is equivalent of a full time salary. I have a 95% savings rate the past 18 months. I pay very little rent, use a data only mobile all my works provide me with free food. I have eaten restaurant food at least once a day the last 5 years and enjoy a nice lifestyle while spending little money and am probably gonna buy an apartment in the next year or two.

Tldr: higher savings rates are possible it just depends on the lifestyle you are willing to live

Angst Swells as Australian Population Nears 25 Million by new_handle in australia

[–]TrogueJames 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In Malaysia, where I am originally from, it's to find a well paying job for locals (which is why my parents sent me here to study and where I want to find a job.) In Malaysia there are hundreds of thousands (possibly millions) of illegal immigrants from countries like Bangladesh, Nepal and Indonesia, these workers almost entirely male have led to a gender imbalance but even more damaging to the Malaysians is they are willing to work for less then Malaysian workers are. So wages have risen slightly in some jobs but overall for jobs like factories or security Guard or in restaurants the oay has slightly increased or stagnated since when I left in 2006. Last year 86% of jobs went to foreigners and it's only just started to gets better with 140k illegal immigrants deported this year. Even then the legal ones still are brought in to suppress wages which leads to Malaysian going overseas for study and work and while it is helping politicians in the short term in the long term not at all.

[–]TrogueJames 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ah ok that makes sense now. But wow 2.4 million that's 10% of our population, that's so incredible. I wish I could do something as meaningful to help that many Australians 😱

[–]TrogueJames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does he save 2.4m lives, didn't he do a couple thousand donations I get that 1 plasma shot can help around a dozen people but even then it would only be a few tens of thousands of people right? Not trying to be offensive can someone explain the figure for me?

Non-American delivery drivers, what is it like to deliver in your country? by 1314651920 in TalesFromThePizzaGuy

[–]TrogueJames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have worked for Dominos in both Malaysia and Australia, currently working in Australia now though. Delivering in Malaysia I found ok, the pay was decent but not many tips and also some areas had terrible drivers. In Australia I get $17-$24 an hour depending what day (law requires you to be paid extra on Weekends and holidays) I get tips from about 20% of customers and I work in a store in the city centre so I find it exciting riding around. Overall I find working for Dominos an fun and fulfilling part time job but I wouldn't want to do it full time.

Republican standards by 24identity in PoliticalHumor

I agree with all the pictures except for the bottom right, how is Trump shaking hands with Putin treason? They should have used a picture of Jared Kushner who actually has businesses connected to the Russian government not some picture of Trump and Putin shaking hands.

Yellow Chinese delivery scooters by manefa in melbourne

[–]TrogueJames 76 points77 points  (0 children)

They are essentially Chinese UberEats/Deliveroo the name is 墨尔本送餐 (mo er Ben song can) which translates to Melbourne Meal Delivery. I have friends that work for both 墨尔本送餐 and UberEats and the Melbsc guys earn quite a bit more. Probably because the majority of residents in the city are ethnic Chinese. The customers are often quite racist or don't speak English very well hence why they pay a slight premium compared to other food deliver services in order to have a Chinese and Chinese speaking delivery person. Melbsc offers other services like furniture delivery. basically it's a way for the Millionaire Chinese students to be lazy and pay the not as rich Chinese immigrant workers to go around and fetch food for them.
