And it's really not that bad in Australia yet, our problem is that the economy is doing too well.. and we're cushioned from the full brunt of oil's recent rise with our high dollar. There is still time to make hard decisions (and lots of easy ones) before things get worse.

I told one of my mates well over a year ago to stop smoking, buying lunches in sydney cafes and 2-3 coffees a day and put the savings into oil stocks. If he'd done even that simple couple of things he'd be laughing right now and have enough extra money to erase 3+ years of petrol hikes. Instead he owes even more on his credit card.
