Anyone who says they cant make ends meet on $100k per year is clearly living WELL beyond their means. The 'average' wage (according to statistics!) is somewhere around $40,000 per year, and I think most kiwis think themselves lucky if they are earning $40-60k. It's all about how you live your life at the end of the day. Getting the biggest mortgage you can, financing the best car and fitting yourself out with all the best gear is a recipe for disaster, no matter what country you live in!
