How much is a decent middle class income in Australia? I'd say it's about $45,000 per year in the US.
Average is 90k, median salary is 80k
So higher relative income in Australia.
How much is 4 liters of milk and 4 liters of petrol in Australia? 4 liters because that about equals a US gallon which is our usual measurement for those things.
In the US right now a gallon of milk is about $2.65 and a gallon of petrol is about $3.80.
I donno about cow milk maybe $5-6 is my guess, petrol is like $7-8
So it seems like the scale is just higher in Australia. As of today 1 USD = 1.55 AUD
The real cost of gas and milk is the environment
