haha, wonder if this will take off?

[avgas]

aren't there places in the states where "teh govt" can't afford bin men?

Worse than that. Seems that in my local Greenwich (where all the bankers live) they can't afford to put gutters on the sides of roads that have houses less than $3M in value. (I am not kidding)

But to go back to my previous point:
$800K house in Auckland (sale price not LIM) = $2700 rates
Same house in CT = $6000-8000 rates per year
Same house in NY = $15000-$20000 rates per year

Actually most quality clothing in NZ has these already. Feel around, you are looking for a hard rectangle about 1cm x 3cm x 1-2mm. You will know it when you find it.

Last clothes I cut ones out of was some Kathmandu Pants, Hallenstiens T-shirt and Billabong board shorts.

I wouldn't be surprised at all. Fortunately my wardrobe has limited clothing of that quality.

What took your disfancy sir?

However it's hardly surprising if the figures in this story are to be believed.

Happy happy joy joy that it ends with a smile

"Per-capita indebtedness is still just $11,621 in emerging economies (and rises to $12,808 if you exclude the two largest populations, China and India). For developed economies, it’s $170,401. The U.S. alone has total per-capita indebtedness of $176,833, including all public and private debt.". S'ok though, we can borrow more money to service the interest debt on that baby.

Try this one

Air New Zealand was one standout performer for the year, announcing a 45 per cent increase in net profit to $262 million, only a day before Australian rival Qantas shocked the market with a A$2.8 billion ($3.1b) loss on the back of large-scale writedowns and restructuring.


45 %
What magic did they do

Charge everyone 45 percent more
Cut costs by 45

Stuff 45 percent more people onto the plane

Or massage the figures
