I think whats good to note for people is that Australian wages are much higher on average... I don't know what Molly makes but when I did cafe jobs in Australia I made $30 p/hour (£17.22) and in the UK the most I have made in hospitality outside of London is £9.50 ($16.55) so that is a big difference in wages. Cost of living is obviously important as well so I cant speak on what molly pays in rent but wages being so high definitely helps balance it out and making it an affordable place to live mostly. (I do know fuel is a lot cheaper than the UK)
I literally came here to ask what the average wage working in cafes/bars would be so thank you! It’s good to see the comparison of how much you would expect to earn and how much you can expect to spend in general ☺️
Yesss this is definitely worth noting!! The wage in the cafe is definitely more than what I’d be paid doing the same job back at home for SURE!! This is about right as my hourly pay 🥰
@@jessicavernon8241 Don't forget there are farmers markets and Victoria markets where you and friends can buy in bulk then divide the produce.
@@JL-zj4qt Yeah this was in QLD 2012-2016, very fortunate to make that much but I do know a lot of my friends who had similar wages in hospitality.. and if they made less they were usually in jobs that gave them extra for weekends/late hours/ public holidays which my job didnt.
Please do this in every place you live ! It’s so interesting 😊😊
Maybe you could try a week where you live on a budget xx
Be good to add your part of the weekly rent to the total to get a more accurate idea
Most other youtubers add the rent to their "what l spend" videos
Love how real this video is and how needed it is! I feel like a lot of RUclipsrs make travelling look a certain way but I’m glad you’re real about it and keep us up to date with things💞😊
you should’ve included rent!
I'm moving to Australia soon on a WHV, so this was super helpful! Would love to see more videos like this in the future :)
Ah amazing I’m so glad you found it helpful!! It’s deffo worth noting that the pay over here is a lot better per hour than what it is in the UK so while it’s expensive initially it does sort of balance itself out!! You’re gonna have the BEST time eeek!! 💖
This was so helpful, thank you! Moving to Aus from the UK this year so trying to figure out the difference since UK inflation! ☺️
Loved this, obsessed with your vlogs ❤
Thank you so much!!!
I moved to Brisbane two weeks ago from the UK, I LOVED this video! So relatable!
This was such a good video!! You made it so well and this is super interesting! :)
Thank you so much I really appreciate it!!🥰
That's really interesting, around $350 a week, plus any accomodation. Say that's $50 a night (?), plus the odd unexpected cost or attraction and it's close to $800-000 per week. If you're not working that would get churned up pretty quick. But if you can offset that with 20 hours of work at $25 an hour, that would sustain you here for a while if you came across with savings. Sorry, I just went off on a calculator rant! Enjoy your stay!
Loved this!! So interesting please do this in every place you go ❤
Hi Molly Love you both love your channel do you miss UK . You live work moved from UK to Australia scary exciting things to do never bored love you support here always keep the vidoes coming keep it up Molly enjoy the rest of your Valentines Day Happy Valentines day to you both ❤️❤️😊👍🧁🍰🇬🇧🎊
Great video well thought out and interesting enjoy your time in Oz
Love this! And yeah I am nosey like you! I am honestly shocked though I didnt think it was as expensive as I thought.. I traveled Aus like 10 years ago and it felt muchhhh more expensive but maybe that is because I was a student at the time hahaha!
Love this!
Where are your flower earrings from from Friday? I love them… pls say they were from the uk 😅
They are hahaha!! They’re from Claire’s!! X
Happy Valentines day
Hi, love your videos and because of your content I'm going Thailand this summer. I have a question about lay overs any advice of flying from thailand to bali (DPS). How do layovers work does the airline transfer your checked luggage to the next flight? this is the stressful part as always paid extra for a direct flight? Thanks and loving the Aussy content.
hope can be friends keep in touch on here
So you need to buy a tram card and it will let you commute around the city but when you go out of the city you must pay for the ticket. Am I getting this right?
Do you work at coles to get the staff discount? ☺️
No we don’t but our friend is the manager of this store so very handy haha 🥰
@@MollyThompsonx_ ooh hope they don’t get in trouble for using their staff discount for other people!
This was really interesting ❤️😊
"oh lord, she has "the list" 🤣🤣
Apparently, men in general, including my dad, don't use shopping lists. Instead, they claim to memorise the few items that are absolutely necessary and then wing it from there, inevitably forgetting one of the "absolutely necessary" items whilst finding a new flavour of Oreos or, in my case, bringing home something Mexican with which we had absolutely no experience previously (Me: "What is THIS? Male: I dunno, I thought we'd try it. Me: *furiously searches google to figure out what it is, whether it is edible, and how to attempt to prepare same for consumption, all the while cursing the end of the roll of toilet paper). Yet, if I am present and produce a "list" (from my phone. Paper lists? in 2023? really, Molly? :)), I get the sigh and the statement above.
The Kmart budget is got to be a real problem for you
11£ Cocktails? Jesus I really need to stop complaining about 8£ cocktails here man I used to pay 4£ (5€) for a cocktail only a couple of years ago in Germany 😂
