High paid manual labour wages

Something that is uniquely Australian is our incredibly high minimum wages. Although it is a little bit harder to find work in the unskilled labour market you can be assured that you will be able to live very comfortably.

This market is also unique in that it is easy to get casual work (With casual loading). This means you can be employed to work 2 days a week, and earn enough to enjoy your 5 day weekend.

The other option is to work your arse off for a few months, save everything, and spend the greater part of the year travelling and living nomadically.

The first is my plan, I want to develop my programming skills further (Probably for another 6 months) but I still need to earn a living. Thankfully 2 full days at 8  hours = 16 hours. At $25 an hour that is $400.. which is ridiculous.
