    So no I don't have another suggestion - I was merely commenting on the choice made. I meant to offer nothing productive to continue the discussion it was just a funny story to share - and 'successful in business or not' I think he is a slimy arse.

    But that's just me though I suspect I am not alone
    There's quite literally another 100 channels to chose from instead of moaning about 1 programme that's running on 1 channel. Overall something like this is good for NZ and there are lame programmes on air like Shortland and Coronation Street.

    Few contractors not on his nice side as you would expect with a prominent successful businessman but many more lining up to work for him and get paid.

    Probably it'll end up just like NZ version of Pimp my ride.
    How many episodes were there? One? I believe they got bankrupt


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Indeed and I exercised that choice pretty soon after I started watching it;..Anyway don't get upset -- it's the KB way to moan about shit you don't really give a shit about anyway

    Trump is one of the few people that I REALLY JUST CAN'T STAND IN THE SLIGHTEST. YES I"M SHOUTING. I HATE HIM THAT MUCH!!

    I think he's an unimaginative twat. Yes he may have worked his ass off to get what he has, but I just can't stand stale people. Give me personality any day. I would have loved to make it on one of his shows just to "fall asleep" in a meeting to see what his reaction would be. Alas, I'm not even remotely talented enough to sniff the shoes of those that have been on it. And, of course, I would never do that because he does deserve some respect to his face. I suppose he would actually be ok if someone said, "sorry, not a fan mate". He seems straight up.

    I did cringe when I saw the ad for the NZ version. I contemplated watching it for the candy but thought I'd much rather watch...well...I don't even know when it's on so obviously something is better on the other channel.

    Ya can't do a commerce degree, it is just plain sense.

    Ya can't fix a problem that doesn't exist.

    Ya wait till they are employees till ya treat them like that (maybe other employers)...
