Insomnia is a bitch at the best of times. But when you're already suffering from chronic tiredness...

There was a government superannuation ad on tv last night. Using a vet nurse earning $450 a week as an example. And if she puts $25 per week into her super...and all I'm thinking is, that unless you've got a sugar daddy, who earning $450 a week has a spare $25?

To start with, I suspect she's not living in Sydney.

If she's living like a student (share house, willing to put up with a house like the first one I lived in after I left college) and not going out every night, it might be doable. Cut down a lot of people's average alcohol budget per week and you'd often get close to $25 a week. At least, if you listen to the secretaries at my office it seems that way..

I almost did say that she definitely wasn't living in Sydney ;)

Yeah, in the circumstance you mention, it could be doable. But it would be a stretch and I think that ad in particular doesn't really reflect reality.
