    Hey Wilko,

    Thanks for that bit of information I have already applied for a vacation job at the Melbourne Office, so thanks again.

    This is great to see so many Chemical Engineers on this forum, and lets not forget Mel who was a process & Environmental Engineer isn’t it great!

    Hey aaronj,

    Sorry for being nosy but what sort of payments to you want from Centrelink, I recieve YA and it doesn’t pay for everything.

    Centrelink demands on
    a) your age if you under 25 then conditions apply -i.e. the still classifry you under your parents income (if you don’t meet certain conditions),
    b) your financial situation,
    c) your assets (I know with YA if you have more than $2000 (I think) in your bank account when applying the are likely to postpone the payments for a period of time and tell you to live off savings – if this is the case could be an idea to hide the money.)

    I hope this helps – they are three major things I have learnt with my dealings.

    Okay everyone,

    Steve’s book about how he changed his life and got out of the rat race (yes I have played cashflow by Rk (Rich dad)) was motivational, and it detailed not just in words (because not everyone can stand words) but in numbers as well.

    It doesn’t matter how many properties he has now at all, his story is about how they (Steve and Dave) decided that the didn’t like being part of the rat race and that they wanted the opportunity to work the hours that they wanted.

    I brought the book for my dad (Father’s day) and I started reading it and I couldn’t put it down.

    Thanks Steve for sharing you journey with us and we shouldn’t say that he titled it wrong, he did it in todays society in Australia.[:)]
