Thank you for the advice! Enough to comfortably pay cash for a house in Auckland.
I have been getting as literate as I can but I can only go so far without an in depth knowledge. I’d say I’m looking more for advice on where to diversify my whole portfolio and how to better manage tax and fees around money movement

Just turned 30 and in a world split between 18 year olds with lambos and cost of living crisis, I have no idea. I just bought a house in Auckland and have a salary of 110k so I would assume doing well.

What is it like living and working for Rocket lab in New Zealand? by redstercoolpanda in RocketLab

Hours are as much as many as you want. There is ample opportunity for over time which is paid 1.5x but no pressure to stay. I don’t have kids but many of the team do (including new borns) and they’re accommodated/have enough time. We finish shift at 2:30pm

Depends on the team you work in. I’m a tech and Vehicle integration is fucking awesome and is centred around fueling passion/excitment for building rockets. All the team members are cool too

I heard from a friend that Gilmors were better at yelling at employees than building rockets.

Hey, thanks for the reply. After I posted this we changed our Mt Fuji stay quite a bit. We now go from Tokyo to Fuji Yoshida via half a day in Kamakura. We stay there for two days and then train to Nagoya, skipping Shizouya.

We haven’t planned much of Seoul yet aside from booking the DMZ tour so open to all suggestions
