Guest gail.crease Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Hi everyone Medicals arrived in Oz on 14th December so just waiting for the magic email now Thought this may be useful. I was given the following cost of living comparisons from a recruitment agent at Michael Page. It would be interesting if anyone already in Oz agrees or disagrees with it. To maintain a similar standard of living: If you Earn … £ in the UK You will need to earn ….$ in Australia £25,000 $44,200 £30,000 $53,000 £35,000 $62,000 £40,000 $70,500 £45,000 $79,400 £50,000 $88,200 £55,000 $97,000 £60,000 $105,880 £65,000 $114,700 £70,000 $123,500 £75,000 $132,300 £80,000 $141,200 £85,000 $150,000 £90,000 $158,800 £95,000 $167,600 £100,000 $176,500 Hope it helps anyone planning a move.

calNgary Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 I guess it depends on individual circumstances too ,we are fortunate to be able to live mortgage free here which is a hell of a saving every month we also find its much cheaper to occupy the kids with activities and days out again a saving on the uk ,fuel is also alot cheaper,so unlike in the uk with hubby working 6 days and me working 6 evenings we are managing with hubby working 5 days here and i will shortly be looking for a part time job not necessarily because we need the money but so i get out and meet people.The guidlines are great but dont let them worry you as they did me before i left the uk ,,, Take Care Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
