why do some pple presume that pple on a pansion are living it up???this person could have worked all their life and not been able to save anything,is now disabled,on a pension.the rents in any major city in oz are ridiculous,and so ends must be scraped together. why not spend some time in another country, where if you can handle the heat you can live better.
tell me what person who has to struggle here wouldnt rather live well over there for a while?
it so bugs me that ppl are so quick to judge other ppl and how they choose to live,no matter how they the money is earned.its actually not whats earned it how its SPENT or borrowed upon............think about it...
i'd rather jumpup and own about pollies on thier junkets,lurks and perks,than the odd pensioner who wants to spend a bit of time in bali to make their dollar stretch further.
