Pay some bills as you don't get money from the Govt very often, usually the other way round!

Just curious what the requirements are for people who work. I dont receive youth allowance due to parents income, but I do work. Just wondering what minimum earnings are to receive the handouts.

If I get anything I'm putting it straight in my kids bank (8 and 9yr olds).
they will need it as they will be still paying for the mess left behind after rudd is finished running this country to the ground.

^spot on.
so far the only people ive meet who agree with it,are on welfare.
probably because they wont be paying it back

I'm not getting one.
But there is the clincher for me. It's not because I earned too much last financial year... it's because I didn't earn enough!
I didn't work the full year, only about two months and earned a poultry $5,600 gross. Yes, I did pay tax while working (PAYE) but because I was in the tax free threshlod as a low income earner, I received a full refund of the tax I paid (about $1,000 from memory).
I believe the Rudd government has got this all wrong. If I had earned $80,000 for the year, I'd still receive the tax bonus of $900 but because I'm a low income earner, I receive nothing!
As I'm a single guy with no children on a moderate income, I'm not in a financial position to buy a house so I haven't receive any benefit from interest rate cuts. Nor have I received any of the Rudd government Stimulus handouts.
While I was unemployed, I didn't receive any unemployment benefits (my own choice) but rather used my own personal savings to support myself (welfare is for the truly needy).
While I don't need the $900 I donated $900 to the Vic Bushfire Appeal earlier in the year, thanks to a suggestion from someone on this forum. I was hoping that I would be able to reimburse myself with the tax bonus but now that's not going to happen.
Thanks Ruddy!

Yeah thankfully I'm a student. I know everyone thinks these handouts are an immature responce to the economic situation, but I don't see how they can harm it. Sure they probably won't make a hugely significant difference, but they probably are not a hugely significant component of the tax payer's money. I don't see the loss; we're still pumping more money into the economy, and the Government feels that they can live without it.
If someone walked up to you on the street and handed you $950 and said "this is for you, but I want you to spend it; that's all I ask". I don't think you would hesitate to do good by them. I'm sick of hearing people say that they aren't even gonna put it into the economy because they don't agree with it.
Sounds like some good uses on here.
I've gotta pay car insurance I think... I don't think there will be any change
