This thread is about the Aus OAP. As for me: I’m soon to (hopefully) obtain the OAP hence my appreciation for the useful information posted by members who have already obtained the OAP or who, like me, are hoping to soon obtain the OAP. I notice you dominate the posts on here. Most of them (your posts) are either disputed or ignored, as a number of members have black-listed you. So speaking of simple questions, are you on the OAP now or soon to be on the OAP, which one?

lol. Troll on! 🤣🤣 Please start a new thread about Medicare. TIA.

Here’s a mate of mine posting to his suburb’s FB group (he is one of the group’s admins) about the hospital care he received after a bad fall recently. The care was all covered free of charge in a Sydney public hospital courtesy of Medicare, yet you post that “Medicare is worthless” 🤣. Amazing. Hi all, **** here from admin here just letting all you know today marks a special blooming Friday for me, as I lie here in my hospital bed recovering at St George Hospital after receiving emergency surgery after sustaining a broken eye socket, two fractured cheek bones, fractured ribs and slight bleeding on the brain after a freak fall earlier in the week. I personally write this message wising to thank all the tireless attention and help received from all the doctors, nurses, paramedics, surgeons and whoever ever else I’ve forgotten to mention as I write this post in a groggy state after 3 hours surgery. THANK GOD, WE HAVE SUCH FANTASTIC STAFF at St George Hospital bending over backwards to get our health back on track to recovery after such life threatening injuries are thrown at us….

Agree and always take it when travelling abroad as the Essenso 2 in 1 is not available in the (western) homeland.

No more reading your 💩

Debit card maybe? Let’s you buy online just like a credit card.

The OP mentioned that he will probably be renting, hence my post supporting his intention to rent.

Rent never buy. Life is short and variety is the spice of it.

What about an unforeseen hospitalisation in which you were unable to fly back to Australia? You’re up for potentially millions of baht, correct?

No Bob or Sue in it.

If your flat was in Bondi you could sell your car spot for a million dollars! https://au.finance.yahoo.com/news/agent-justifies-hefty-1-million-price-tag-on-car-park-will-be-2-million-in-five-years-220013610.html

Think you would have been better off staying in Australia, owning your own house there and living on the pension? Think again.

Yes, you can claim the dole the moment you walk off the plane after living abroad, aged over 60 No, you don’t have to re-establish residency to get the dole. Dole payments maybe delayed if you have too much cash in the bank.

The 2 years in Australia could be very expensive indeed. Depends where he intends to stay in Aus and if he can get the dole or other benefits whilst there. Need more info.

Indeed volunteering is an option but they can't make you do that. Looking for a job and getting the dole is still available to you up until pension age.

Nice! Whilst on Newstart, do you know if they made him report in person every fortnight to his local Centrelink office for those 2 years?

Suggest you call the Centrelink International Office in Hobart on 131673 for a clear / specific answer on this point.

Ok, Mr “wonderfully refreshing” 🤣🤣

Fool? You’re the fool for wasting your money on an uncovered pond of un-swimmable hot water in the tropics …and even more foolish lying about it being “wonderfully refreshing”. Keep the lies coming fool boy. Its great entertainment!

“We” ? You mean that you are putting the health of others at risk out there in the unbearable tropical midday heat in sun-drenched hot water without a cover over it? Or is it just you stupid enough to endure that torture?

Given your failure to admit otherwise, it’s obvious your pool is unshaded. Sorry to hear that you have wasted your money on something unusable during tropical hot season daylight hours - which is often. Keep telling yourself how “wonderfully refreshing” it is during the hot season. We all believe you, DUDE! 🤣🙃

Boasting about having an unshaded, non-chilled, non-refreshing tub of hot water in an unbelievably-hot tropical summer? Amazing.

An unshaded, non-refrigerated hot tub. Yep, just perfect for a tropical hot season! 🤗🤭🙃

Agree. Thanks for the correction.
