Students Marry to Get More From Government
A silly decision for a little bit of money will lead to future problems. Currently Australian students receive $128.90 each per fortnight. Two students have married just to increase their payment to $377 each.
There is a problem that they have not thought out well though. The single rate is for those living at home where a roof is usually provided by parents, free of charge. Now they will have to live together and pay for a roof over their heads, not to mention buying food. With rents sky high for accommodation near any Australian colleges they will have to pay far more than the extra $64.45 each person a week.
Marrying before one gets a qualification is also a bit rash. They should have thought this out a bit before making the drastic decision. It is going to be years before they get a decent living income. They claim they were struggling below the poverty line. They will certainly be struggling now.
