Default Re: Simply can't afford to live in NZ
To be honest the more I read and hear off people the more I dont want to go!!

I am a single parent so I wouldnt have the option of a second wage. And I just dont relish the idea of living in an old shack huddled around a single heating device!!! ?It sounds like the NZ folk know no better so except a shitty finanical life. ?I think it was on here that one NZ guy who left for the UK said he wasnt even aware that there was better out there. ?He thought the rest of the world lived in poverty too. ?The UK is a flea pit I agree but we do have a good stardard of living. ?Well those who are educated and work hard. ?I can afford to buy clothes just because I like them, dont need them, I can go out for meal, drinks, cinema etc without a thought and I can afford 3 weeks in NZ. ?If I was living there I wouldnt have any of those luxuries. ?So really I think my answer is that NZ is a lovely and beautiful country but it would only provide me with a life in poverty and I want so much more.
