As for wannabe home owners, if a couple have a combined income of less than $70,000 gross, surely they don't believe they can afford their own home. Unless of cause they drop their standards and accept that home ownership is not measured by the median house price in Sydney, which seems to be the focus point of most discussion lately.
Country towns now have houses under $250K, towns like Caboolture and surrounding areas one can buy a brand new three bedder for under $300K.
How is this not affordable?
Home ownership, like many things is simply a lifestyle choice, so if one chooses to pay $45 per litre for warm milk, or $8 for an egg, well of cause this will make buying a home more difficult. Furthermore, If they choose the drink, smoke, or gamble, or a combination of, then this makes the dream even harder.
But my point is, at what point are the underachievers going to stop whinging and show some appreciation for those they despise as it is they who provide the life blood so many today take for granted.
Which ever way you look at it, Negative gearing is subsidizing their rents, but you would never know given the amount of resentment shown toward their providers.
