    I had an OK Boomer experience today

    I lost my credit card and stupidly thought the customer service desk at a supermarket would have access to a phonebook 

    so I could get the number for the bank and use the nearby public phone

    I didn't have my phone on me

    I still get one dropped of at my house and my work had them too

    but people are laughing at me on facebook posting about it

    I had to walk a kilometre back to my house to use mine in the end

    I did post to the Bank that they need a customer assistance number on their ATM and they at least seemed to my feedback seriously

    apparently we are boomers, you more marginally than me

    I grew up thinking the baby boom ended 1960 but now they include up to 1964

    I was considered Generation X as a teen onwards 

    but they moved the dates later after being told all my early life I wasn't one by my older peers

    kangaroo island where all the roos are?

    i want to live near roos.

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 8,069

    we have roos all around us where I live. 

    unfortunately unless you are a millionaire you wouldn't be eligible to move over to here, they would deny, at best would probably be a 12 month visa.

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    i thought it would be easier if i wasnt going to look for a job.  roos, wanna play 

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 8,069

    nope.. for a healthy working person with a clean record it costs around $10,000 for a permanent residency visa after all the red tape... any health issues will mean rejection. frown 

    unless you have the $$$$$$$$$$$$'s to cover for future medical costs.

    I do.  80 is good, 90 is warm, 100 is hot.  Some of my family lives in Denver, which is not a place, but a science experiment.

    it still takes a lot of red tape and years to pass immigration laws but you could try marrying an Aussie over there who moves back home
