To be honest, I’m extremely frustrated by the current cost of living in Australia.
Today, I received an email from my mortgage lender saying that my home loan interest rate has increased again—to 7.69%. After seeing the news, the first question that came to my mind was: How long can this continue?
On one hand, property prices are extremely high. On the other, mortgage interest rates have become a major financial burden for many people. In my case, my monthly home-loan-related costs have reached around $20,000. A large portion of that money is going toward interest.
The comparison becomes even more striking when you look at relatively lower mortgage rates in places such as China and Singapore. It makes you wonder why the cost of servicing a similar loan can be so much higher in Australia.
And the problem isn’t limited to mortgages.
I have already left Australia. However, my house has now been on the market for almost two months and still hasn’t sold. Even though the property is sitting empty, a huge amount of money continues to go out every month. In other words, whether you live in the property or not, the cost of the loan doesn’t stop.
That brings me to a very important lesson.
💰 A High Salary Doesn’t Necessarily Mean an Easy Life
When considering studying, working, or immigrating overseas, we usually look at one thing first:
How much is the salary?
But the more important questions should be:
How much is left after tax?
How much does housing or rent cost?
How much are mortgage interest payments?
What are the everyday living expenses?
And how much can you realistically save at the end of each month?
In Australia, salaries in many professions may look attractive on paper. However, once you factor in high housing costs, loan interest, taxes, and other living expenses, the actual financial picture can be very different.
So you shouldn’t make the decision to move to Australia simply because someone tells you, “The salaries here are very high.”
You need to look at the complete financial picture.
🌏 Do the Math Before Moving Overseas
If you’re considering studying or immigrating to Australia, Canada, Singapore, or another country, don’t look only at the potential salary.
Consider net income, taxes, housing costs, interest rates, healthcare, transportation, and everyday expenses together.
Because ultimately, the amount of money you have left in your bank account at the end of the month is what reflects your actual financial situation.
A high salary doesn’t necessarily mean high savings.
Real financial benefits come from finding the right balance between income and living costs.
