Just upsets me how over here i work 12 hours a day 7 days a week to earn enough to pay for a years education.
Over there i was earning 40k dollars a year bye just doing 8 hours a day chatting to birds on a phone!!

My mate at uni is from australia, goes back every holiday (easter, summer, christmas etc) ... His dad's one of those dot com millionaire people who made millions from the early days of the internet and has a very profitable website that's based all around the world.
He showed me pics of his home over there. Like 3 out door pools (1 with waterfall), 1 heated indoor one... the place was like a mansion on the hills, cinema room, massive games room, massive in general 
I wished he lived closer, or rather I lived closer to australia so I could go out there and stay at his place
