https://sites.google.com/site/cheaperthanmyki/homeThe myki is a measure of government spending, set at 1.5 billion Australian dollars (1,575,450,000 USD; 1,194,880,500 Euro) primarily used to measure waste.
Briefly, myki is the Melbourne and Victorian public transport ticketing system. It's half a decade overdue, doesn't work, actually reduces flexibility, and is broadly detested by everyone, even if the original idea was a good one. It's a child of the state Labor government, but the stuff-ups have most certainly continued on with the current Liberal/National government. Unbelieveably, the card costs $6, you have to wait up to three days for top-ups to be active, and you can't buy one-trip tickets - the only major city in the world where this is the case. So, tough shid tourists, charities, and infrequent users.
ANYwoo, myki is actually now closing in on a total cost of $2,000,000,000, but the measurement is stable at 1.5b which could buy you:
Two Mars rover missions.
Stansted Airport, London.
The Burj Khalifa, tallest building in the world.
Two Tokyo skytrees, the second tallest.
The Police force, with quite a bit of cash to spare.
A hospital, or three.
