    You own your own home do you not, so should be OK.
    If you are buying in the curent market you would need to earn $100,000 plus to be able to maintain any form of lifestyle as well.
    And we all know you like your toys!!
    We survived on around $70k for the last few years. Have had a decent pay rise coming down here, but also paying $400pw to rent a house. Buying is out of the question a present as a decent house down here is $450,000 plus. What you get for $300,000k down her is a hovel and that is about all we can borrow at the moment.
    Also depends were you live, Perth can be cheaper, but can also be dearer.
    Country you pay a premium on everything.
    As said acompany car can add up to $20k to your salary depending on how much private use you are allowed and if you can use the same fuel in your private car.

    DirtyDawg, do you have a trade or qualification? Where's the job?

    59k + 9% super = 65k + car (20k) = 85k.

    If you're not a trady and its in Perth then ok, but if you are and its not, then its way too low.

    What an irrelevant self gratuitous question. You need to stop worrying about money and live each day as if it's your last. I'd think that most people reading this question as to how much you 'survive' on as being none of your business. And I'm not making any pontification as to what you should 'survive' on.
