Default Brisbane figures

Hi! salary if $85,000 is ok.

you will receive about $1200 a week in the hand.
Family of 4 - monthly costs - this is the basics - no mobile, entertain, etc.
Groceries - $1000.00 (a month)
Car Insurance - $40.00 a month (age and value of car is to considered)
Rego - $52.00 a month (V6)
Elect - $100.00 (moderate use)
Health Ins - $145.00 (
Telephone $100-120.00 (I make no overseas calls)
Fuel - $260.00

Rent in brisbane can differ quite alot. from $250.00 a week to anything. The further you rent from the city the less you pay. Driving is alright most of the time. Public transport is okay.
