"payed, $15,000+ AUD at most unis" have rates gone up that much? Back in '95-'96 when I did internships with some companies and a university as part of my studies I got a few hundred Euro (equivalent) per month at most and that was considered normal.
If we use current exchange rates 15000 AUD per year is around 780 euros per month. Of course, things like inflation and standard of living complicate matters, and not being an economist I shall not embarrass myself with further calculations :p
