Damned.... This makes me remembering one of my Australian colleague, who is a full professor in Johannesburg, who told me that his salary, which was extremely good relative to South African standards, was below the salary of a garbage person in Australia. For that reason, it is always important to make ratios. 5.50 AUD can be fine relative to Australian salaries, can't they?

Yes, 5.50 is reasonable, although if you're trying to save money, you don't want to buy one every day! A loaf of bread - sourdough of course - is about 7 to 9 dollars. Two litres of milk around 2.60.

It's all relative, for sure!

Even if it is relative, the absolute prices are crazy. I cannot forbid myself from thinking it :D
