  1. $3660 a month for a cabin in an Alice Springs caravan park. https://bookings12.rmscloud.com/Rates/Index/12368/1?A=03/01/2024&D=03/31/2024&Dn=20240103214303&Rt=3&Ad=2&Mp=0&M=0&Y=0&Z=0#!/rooms Units in Alice Springs range from $230 a week upwards, with most being over $300 per week. . https://bookings12.rmscloud.com/Rates/Index/12368/1?A=03/01/2024&D=03/31/2024&Dn=20240103214303&Rt=3&Ad=2&Mp=0&M=0&Y=0&Z=0#!/rooms
  2. Even if you can somehow collect a decent prize, in Australia, you lose your pension. https://www.news.com.au/finance/money/wealth/so-much-for-being-lucky-lotto-winner-loses-access-to-pension-after-winning-60000/news-story/c9420aa637b92be4ed66cea149d33893#:~:text=A widower who won %2460%2C000,dollars in a Lotto draw.
  3. As another member mentioned, pre-nup agreements are legally binding in Australia. There were also other ways to minimize your exposure. Like so many guys in Thailand, people take short cuts, or think it's marriage forever.
  4. Parking Officers now drive around in cars that have number plate recognition cameras that log the time and date and location of the vehicle. They keep driving around and the computer does the work and the owner of the car gets a fine in the mail. No marking tyres and writing fines and leaving them under the wiper blade. No interaction with drivers, no arguments, no violence, no corruption etc. https://insidelocalgovernment.com.au/newcastle-trials-new-parking-technology/#:~:text=The Council says the plate,or which are parked illegally.
  5. i doubt she was interviewed by police. https://www.theguardian.com/news/2017/nov/05/revealed-queen-private-estate-invested-offshore-paradise-papers People who are paid to recoup the taxpayer's money are not all bad. This guy, and his crew, were real crooks, and his father was the Deputy Commissioner of the ATO. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-08-22/adam-cranston-jason-onley-sentencing-plutus-payroll-tax-fraud/102757978
  6. Websites can't blacklist residential homes in the country you want to VPN to, and you are tunneling into to someone's home, for a small pay for what you use price. As decentralized VPN's gain in popularity, the days of geo blocking and IP Address blacklisting will be a thing of the past.
  7. I know it's doable, but given many sports and movie streaming website have blacklisted VPN IP Address, it would not be difficult for NZ Lotto to question you over your use of a VPN, and should they dig a little further, they may find you are out of the country when placing the bet, not to mention, gambling is illegal in Thailand, so, should you win something big, maybe they will not pay out.
  8. Google "decentralized vpn's" and see the future of vpn's.
  9. Any concerns? https://mylotto.co.nz/faqs#:~:text=If you normally live overseas,not a New Zealand resident. Lotto NZ does not hold a licence in any other country to offer online gambling, and offering online gambling services in some jurisdictions is a crime that can attract significant fines. We are aware that countries could make law changes at any point, and we do not have a team of people able to monitor changes in different country’s gambling legislation, so to ensure Lotto NZ does not inadvertently breach another country’s laws we made the decision to ‘geo-block’ all play anywhere outside New Zealand. If players are ever back in New Zealand, they are most welcome to play our games online or in-store, and they can still access their MyLotto account from overseas to withdraw any funds from it.
  10. It would depend on an unknown quantity, that being, your life expectancy, as to the viability of doing the 2 years. Also, as you point out, a few years from now, they may, and most likely will, raise the retirement age, as all the boomer kids move closer to retirement age, and we are all living longer, and the government wants to lower the bill every fortnight.
  11. So how is it many of the low class English teachers in South East Asia manage to do it? I personally know of two cases.
  12. You may find this interesting. Operation Wickenby. Not only Paul Hogan, but some big Australian sport names mentioned in the investigation also.
  13. Have you worked out which pension you are on yet? Is it the veteran's pension, or the aged pension? Big difference between the two.
  14. I note the decision was in 2003. Over 20 years ago. Whilst it's positive news, is the information in your link still relevant?
  15. I think the Opera browser also has a built in ad blocker, which is something many websites don't like also.
  16. Yes, good advice. You can always get the app from a 3rd Party website. I've used apkpure in the past and never had a problem.
  17. Some may argue a better quality of life than working for the man, and the tax man, for the best years of your life. Housing Commission areas, now known as Department of Housing I believe. Basically, slums. Single mother pensioners living with the father / boyfriend who's on the dole, who shouldn't be living there. Based on how many kids there are, they can bring in more welfare a fortnight into the house than someone who works. Not skewed at all. The "hand up" has become a "hand out" and many have chosen it as a lifestyle.
  18. We are not talking about people who have worked and accumulated assets. We are talking about people who have never worked, except for maybe some cash on the side, then reach retirement age, and can retire with a Thai girl, probably half their age. If you haven't accumulated any assets, there's no need for a pre-nup.
  19. Ever heard of Asia girls / families paying westerners to sign papers for PR / Citizenship. I'll bet that deal is quite attractive for someone on Centerlink, not to mention some bedroom action thrown in as well.
  20. They get subsidized housing. Are you saying the A Current Affairs video clip is fake?
  21. Wake up. You can even support your drug addiction on welfare, all the way to the aged pension. And there's still plenty of cash work around. You have no idea.
  22. And the funny thing is, these guys can't lose anything to divorce from the "my girl is different" because they own nothing and have nothing to take, unlike guys who have worked and have accumulated assets.
