This is happening at a time when I'm trying to get my 14yo to put a little more effort back into things like schoolwork. He's gotten a little lazy this year. But there's a lot of examples around right now of Why Bother? Just gotta point out all the other examples of why you should, but feels like you are up against sometimes. |

So, do I buy that $4 chewing gum to have minty fresh breath, or do I keep it to save for that emergency car repair that will cost at least $300? Ever noticed all those small loan adverts lately? Tempting isn't it? H Having been on benefits for over 12 months because of a medical problem, same benefits as able bodied bludgers, who I might ad get everything given to them, I speak from experience that you can live on ($700/fortnight/$350/week), but need to make sacrifices. No steak dinners, car/no car depending on personal savings, no luxuries like beer and a bbq snag in bread on the weekend, dental visits etc. Oh, and that credit card, good luck with that one!

I feel you’re on the nail there; no fat for contingencies, no long term savings, no super input, plus general wear-and-tear is underfunded.

TF100: Not currently if you’re on Newstart, no.
The DSP from memory reflects if you are living alone or sharing. |

Nor I, if I'm on the dole, I wouldn't need a car ? don't drink booze either. I would have a half price rail line out the front of my house. Entertainment, I guess I could sit and look at my Louisville all day as garden art.
