What salary makes you rich in Australia?

Scott Morrison copped backlash for saying a $180,000 salary doesn’t make you rich. But what makes you well-off in Australia?

If Australia was made up of 100 people this is how much they would earn

Prime Minister Scott Morrison copped backlash when he said earning $180,000 a year in Sydney didn’t make you rich.

The Prime Minister, who earns over $500,000-a-year was asked to nominate “what’s rich?” this week.

He made the comments when defending tax cuts for high income earners, declaring FIFO miners in Queensland earning $180,000 are not rich and should not be regarded as in the same class as “merchant bankers” in Sydney.
