For millions of Aussies the cost of living just keeps going up.

No outside coffee like you're making coffee at home.

We had to move back into our parents place for a little bit to do that yeah.

Mortgage repayments, rent, fuel, the weekly grocery shop, then there's electricity, insurance, child care, school fees and medical bills.

I'd hate to be a young person starting out right now

and there's almost no chance of most people ever buying a home without significant help from parents.

And for many households, wages just aren't stretching as far as they used to.

Aussies are being forced to cut back, dip into savings, or rethink spending that used to be considered normal.

So, it's no wonder that people are feeling frustrated.

Are you saving for a house at the moment?

No, it's not.

Not something you even thought about?

Well, it's like, it's pushing it off.

We hit the streets to find out what Aussies are sacrificing

and who they think should be doing more to ease the pressure.

Well, that's the government.

Yeah.

You know, that's...

Yeah.

That's Chalmers.

That's Jimmy.

That's...

Not doing his homework.

Do I own a home?

Yeah.

Well, if I don't own a home by 90, I will never own one.

Yeah.

I do because yeah I'm not a homeowner I'm renting

and it is it seems like a daunting daunting thing I'm hoping

if I can go in with someone I've got to find a partner

and we both co -share and get a deposit for a house

but yeah they're around 6 % now on homes

but what do you think is easier 17 % deposit like

back in the day on a cheaper house compared to now it's like 6 % but homes are like a million dollars.

I think it's similar but the house prices have just gone up too fast you know

and when that happens it's like the stock market then it's got to come down

and when it's down that's when you strike.

There you go.

And do you think people nowadays they can still save up and pay for a home in cash?

Do you think that's still possible like what you did or do you think it's more unrealistic now?

Well it doesn't matter

if you have to pay it off a mortgage on a house is normal you know that's that's fair enough

but you know you just have to get your act together

to get a deposit you can put ten thousand dollars down i was reading in the paper today yeah

and that will get you a house a home did you know

that ten thousand dollars deposit wow

and you can move into your own house what would you prefer would you rather

that 17 on a cheaper house or

the six percent on a like one million dollar place 17 on a cheaper house

well you're borrowing less so you're paying more for a bit okay but yeah uh in terms of like

20 30 years right you're still uh depends on the math

but do you reckon they had it easier back then um different challenges

because salaries were lower but asset prices were cheaper yeah so I think if they do the math it was probably easier.

And how was the saving you know between you

and your partner what were you guys cutting back on what was the first to go you cancelling your Netflix subscriptions?

Eating out less, grocery checking more specials on groceries.

Yes there are lots of apps these days to make sure you get some deals

and now so now you've got the place

and you know you're still still having to save because you're making these big lump sum repayments.

But you know you're here in Pitt Street, you're here with all the expensive shops, are you back to splurging a little bit?

No, just walking through here, just going on a stroll.

Going on a stroll, not spending anything?

Yeah, no. Are you renting at the moment?

Yeah.

Yeah, do you reckon it's harder to save while renting?

For sure, especially if you're like supporting yourself.

Yeah.

Because we're students.

Yeah, fair and

so do you reckon game plan would be I mean my game plan would yeah move them with parents yeah

and then save hopefully by that you can save yeah

when you're saving what's the first thing to go Netflix dinners drinks what do you like oh like splurge

if you like I need to knuckle down

and say what's the first thing no coffee no coffee no

outside coffee like you're making coffee at home like hundred percent

like you can't spend seven dollars on coffee every day what's the thing

that you still have to have despite this cost of living crisis you're like coffees like like yes no coffees

but like i can't give it up at the moment yeah

just gotta treat yourself sometimes do you own a home yes i do and

if you had to buy your home again today do you

reckon you could afford it uh no probably not okay

and why do you say

that uh interest rates have gone up a lot in the last 12 years or so yeah yep

cost of living everywhere else you know back in 1989 we saw interest rates at 17 %

which is a real high

but of course houses were cheaper comparatively to now now we are looking at

that 6 % mark what would you rather do you reckon you'd go for the 17 % cheaper house

or the 6 %

but on like a 1 million dollar place in Sydney you

used to be able to buy a house for 200 grand back then

so I'll take the 200 grand with a 17 % mortgage

and get it paid off in a few years which a lot of people did.

I bought BHP shares when I was about 18 -19 and just left them and they paid for the house cash.

And I saw a stat

that said three around three quarters of average household income would go towards repayments that's if you have a mortgage.

Which is anything above about 30 % considered mortgage stress I think so.

Yeah but then like myself I'm renting

and I am I'm trying save for a house

but also i'd say like half my income is going towards half my monthly income is going towards my rent

100

and then i think if i

101

if i really need to make a good dent in

102

that savings for my future home i'm gonna have to move back in with mom

103

and dad yeah that's pretty common at the moment unfortunately yeah

104

and people are living at home longer with their folks as you know so

105

final message to camera anything i have to say uh elbow

106

and labor fix the economy

107

or get out of office please how much are you like

108

paying each month like how much of your income is like half

109

a quarter between me and my partner probably about quarters

110

or half somewhere around there okay and did you guys go in together together okay

111

which does makes it a lot easier yes

112

but not not easy though um

113

and what was the first thing to cut in your savings

114

when you were saying is it is it subscriptions no no

115

coffee my my my one piece cards all my leisure activities yeah yeah

116

congrats you got one thank you uh were you guys renting whilst also saving for a deposit

117

or did you guys move back in with your parents we

118

had to move back into our parents place for a little bit to do

119

that yeah standard uh if you had to i know i was going to say

120

so would you rather

121

because we were doing some research back in 1989 interest rates hit seven mortgage interest rates hit 17

122

but homes were a lot cheaper whereas now six percent

123

that homes could be like around the one mil mark yeah what would you rather would you rather

124

that 17 100 100 lower prices higher of percentage

125

because you can pay it off so much faster

126

because i'm pretty sure most people like most of our parents

127

have paid off their home loans at this point in time

128

i can't imagine what it's trying to pay off a home loan now yeah

129

but i can because i'm trying to yeah and uh

130

so do you reckon they had it easier back then yes 100 um

131

and how realistic does buying a home field for a lot

132

of people right now like how how much grit sweat

133

and tears i think in sydney it feels unattainable yeah where's your place in sydney

134

but we bought it off the plan like a long time ago

135

so like three four years ago so it's a little bit easier back then

136

but um i mean a lot of my friends are discussing like moving to melbourne

137

because it's cheaper down there and honestly

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
