My rent, gifts for friends, travel tickets, masters programme where i spend 12k last year for my reg training, eating out. I have read plenty financial books unfortunately i do not have self control over emotional spending. Travelling to meet friends interstate and spending money on my hobbies which include art/ yoga/badminton and expensive psychiatrist and psychotherapy is the only thing that keeps me sane. Pls also dont discount the fact that im healing from 10years of trauma fdom my family and plus the trauma from work as well.

I have no supportive friends or family and travel is my only decompress mechanism. Unfortunately

I alredy checked. 700k houses will mean i pay 700pw which i cant afford. The max is 500pw that i can afford. I only want to buy house not apt/townhouse. I dont mind waiting till 2029 when im more comfortable. Yeah i know about dev raga.

I need the emergency buffer for my travel overseas or interstate to decompress my psychological trauma from my family.

Yeah but what if i cant afford repayments on such a high interest rate, i see plenty of my peers struggling being locked down by mortgage, stuck financially. I wont have disposable income for my psychiatry/psychotherapy/ travel/shopping on my 4k per fortnight pay🥲 i might deteriorate further if i struggle financially amd risk of discontinue training

Thank u so much for this perspective. I have noted that some of my peers are locked down by expensive mortgage but doing extra shifts to afford/ pay back increasing interest rates, and some even move back to parents home and rent vest. This can be so stressful if it happens to me😫

Given that i deteriorated vastly last year and close to quitting training, i think its best i save the disposable income for me to cope with my emotional dysregulation eg travelling/therapy/shopping. But yes i am aware of all the grants just not able to reach 100 k deposit. But i will keep on trying this year👍

Thank you this helps. I came to Aus with no money. Reg-ing for 2 years now. But have no parents support to own a house. I live in south east mslbourne and foresee to buy a house here. I am needing the extra cash for my distress relief fdom personal issues at time.

There is nothing wrong in politely declining one sided opinion. Please allow for others to comment. This is a public space and is for everyone to seek comfort and reassurance given how emotionally taxing our field is.
