If you earn less than $65k you should just give up an go on the dole. Once you take out tax, the cost of having a car commuting to work, tolls, fuel, insurances, clothing, washing, the odd coffee or cafe lunch whilst at work, the odd beer or dinner after work, you are probably left with $500 a week. So all that to only be $100-$200 better off than someone chilling on their ass doing nothing haha.
