Yes it is possible,but it can also depend on what state you are living in as some states have a shortage or certain trades and companies are wiling to pay extra so that they can get their jobs done,and it also depends on what type of plasterer you are.If your a dry wall plasters yes they can earn good money in certain states if there is a shortage,but if you are a wet plasterer,well you could basically work in any state as you don't find to many of them,and no matter what state you live in,they always make good money.

Some do. My hubby is in the building trade (carpenter, supervisor) in Perth Western Australia and as we are in the middle of a building boom and we have a lack of tradesmen he tells me that some plasterers can definately earn that much money a week. It obviously depends on the company you work for, how much work you do and how good you are etc etc ...but it certainly is possible at this time.


azza
It depends on where they live and work. If they live and work somewhere where there is a trade shortage, then yes, it is very, very possible to earn that much money in a week.

But, that involves living somewhere where most other people dont want to live, like the western plains or on the mines or something. These areas are normally hundreds of kilometers from anywhere, super hot (in summer) and make for a tough place to live.

If you want to move to Australia, and live by the beach, and make that sort of money, it's not going to happen, because that is where EVERYONE wants to live.

It is easy to earn that much money in the city. I did it for ten years but here's the catch, once you take all your expenses out and work out your hourly wage it is not that much, maybe $20/hr.


old dick withers
some 'shielas' earn thatin Sydney per week, and they certainly get plastered


Alex S
More like 25% of that


Ahwell
No, it's not.
