Crazy with the current! We pay only 25 CHF in a month here in Switzerland for our 2 room flat. In the Philippines it was 5x higher. Seems the same in Australia. Interesting channel. New subscriber 😊

@user-pd7op1pu6l 3 месяца назад

I'd say with a current exchange rate of nearly $2 to the £1, cost of living is comparable to the UK with the exception of rego (which we don't have) and schooling (although trips here are extra also). Energy in Aus is far lower than the UK. This is based on my experience. This just shows how inflated everything has become in the UK, but sadly wages haven't kept up.

@TheBAMFamalam 3 месяца назад

It’s quite frightening to hear how much the cost of living has gone up in the UK 😢

@user-pd7op1pu6l 3 месяца назад

Yeah it is frightening. We're thinking of starting the process to move next year. Just got my gas and electric bill. 4 bed home and it's £850 for three months! 😢 Thanks for all your videos. They're so helpful and honest

Another great video. Thanks Bam Famalam. I would first like to say how helpful your weekly video's are. We live in Ireland and would think the costs over in Australia are around 5-10 cheaper. Would I be correct in saying that your monthly bills would be around 3-4k depending on personal circumstances, excluding mortgage payments, entertainment and unforseen expenses. I think a very worthwhile point to mention is the income tax rates are significantly less than in Ireland (not sure about the Uk). I'll give you an example. In Ireland, 61k per annum (Euros) income, you would pay €17,180 in income tax or €28,690 in the Australian dollar equivent. In Australia, 100k income per year (61K in Euros), you tax bill would be $22,967 or €13,961. That's a saving of $5,723 dollars per year. Which is quite a big difference. We'll be coming out for a recce in the next few months. Looking around Hope island and now with your influence, the sunshine coast 😊. Would love to meet up for coffee when we come out. Thank you once again for the fantastic vid's and infectious enthusiasm regarding Australia.

@markcrowther2355 3 месяца назад

Very comparable to Vancouver Island, Canada except food would be around 2 grand here, phones are super cheap there holy.. ours are like 90$ each phone. Fuel is over two bucks here. Only challenge is for our kids, they have zero chance of home ownership...which fits the WEF plan. We are putting a 2 bed suite in our place so as they have something. Homelessness is a massive issue here as young are just giving up. Is the dream lost there? Looks like it is to me for your kids. Worlds screwed if you ask me.

@TheBAMFamalam 3 месяца назад

I certainly think that home ownership is going to be far more difficult for our children… to get onto the market would be a much bigger step, they really have to think outside of the box now, move to different areas or somehow make a fortune xx

@budawang77 2 месяца назад

Yes, we need to make some major changes to make housing more affordable in Australia and Canada. It will be painful for existing home owners but much better in the long run.

@Ipswichhammer 2 месяца назад

Your videos are great 😊. A few things I’d like to know is 1. Can you recommend an agency to deal with the PR process or did you do it all yourselves? 2. Before anyone even thinks about applying for a PR visa how much 💰would you recommend saving for the process and then having enough to live off when finally out in Australia? ( this will be for a family of 4 ) 3. When it’s spring/summer time here the pollen count is very high in Ipswich 🇬🇧which is annoying. What’s it like in Queensland compared to the UK ?

Great video. I think it would have been useful to cover 1) Average monthly mortgage cost for those $1m-1.5m houses you showed (with a 15-20% deposit for example) and 2) Typical childcare costs...as for most families it's necessary for both parents to work due to the cost of housing. Honestly for young families everything else pales in comparison to the cost of those two items.

OMG the price of your Rego I think it sounds like it’s gone up. But definitely love the price of your fuel your petrol price is very cheap. Try paying $ 3.00 a litre for 91 and Diesel is $2.60 a litre and then with Diesel you have Road users Charges which is $800 for 10’000 kms. It’s $15 a tray of eggs between $7 for a 3 litre bottle of milk. Well rent is very expensive. The water price is about the same. This is here in Auckland New Zealand

Very similar to Canada. Housing here is ridiculously expensive and getting worse. Tax breaks for investment properties, planning and building laws and (to a lesser extent) high immigration are to blame. It's a global problem, but Canada and Australia have screwed up their housing markets the worst.
