There's a thread on AskReddit asking, "People who have had to drain their life’s savings on a single event, what happened?"

99% of the answers are depressing American stories about medical bills, 1% is an Australian who found a wombat burrowing under their house.
A wombat undermined our house to build his burrow. Nearly $50k in foundation repairs, plus $200 in chicken wire to keep him out. Now he’s done the same thing to the shed, so $5k to build a new shed on the other side of the property. Here he is, old Fat Bastard himself.. Edit: it’s wild how many people are suggesting we “get rid” him... Apart from it being very much illegal, the idea would just never even cross my mind. It’s his home too. He’s now settled in his new burrow, and our house is wombat-proofed. The worst he does now is dig up my potatoes.
