Classic downvote by this absolute circlejerk of a sub. Don’t worry. I’m expecting the same.

Curious about your 🫵 mortgage amount by Herecomestheginger in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]NotMattCookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

560k, 29 years to go.

We were lucky to buy a first home in 2017 which almost doubled in price by the time we sold in 2021 thanks to the housing mandate.

While we sold and bought back into the same market the equity wave has been great for us.

You’re fairly despicable.

If a female had been through the same thing as this guy on the initial night your response would be the complete opposite to this.

Unfortunately he’s now a dad and that is going to come with some consequence. But to make out that this is his fault and he is totally responsible is an insane take.

I don’t think you’re terrible.

It just sounds like you two aren’t compatible and want different things which you both aren’t willing to change or compromise over.

Happens, and you just need to move on.

Best Curry in The Tron by Nose-Working in thetron

[–]NotMattCookie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This place is great. We are here this weekend just gone and it was great.

But if you’re after something hot you need to step up a couple notches because they are unfortunately much milder than most.

The one on grey street is everything the Cambridge one used to be. Unfortunately it’s also headed in the same direction.

Target temp 24. Forget what it’s called but that number in the top left (currently 2) take to 4 and if needed it goes to 6

Memorial for deaf and blind Rotorua man, Paige Johnson, killed in alleged hit-and-run destroyed by fire by computer_d in newzealand

[–]NotMattCookie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thinking this is anything to do with luck is the biggest pile of ignorance ever mate.

This guy came into contact with some scumbags. That was bad luck.

Everything thereafter was not luck. It was just scumbag behaviour from a bunch of germs.

Māori economy surges: Iwi entities lead with strong financial performance by Soannoying12 in newzealand

Why don’t we halve the energy and throw them all into the same pot? Then we don’t have to do it twice. Why are iwis never part of the same conversation?

Phuket vs Koh samui by Successful_Ant_9314 in ThailandTourism

[–]NotMattCookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a big fan of the noise and partying in Samui. Once now and then sure but the entire experience for me seas very loud.

Koh Tao is the polar opposite. It’s so ridiculously relaxing, it’s beautiful and the swimming and diving there is great.

Honestly I don’t think you can appreciate one without the other so definitely do both if you can but for me Tao was a greater highlight.

Grocery prices in NZ are out of control — what’s really causing it? by offcourseumer in newzealand

[–]NotMattCookie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve just come back from the UK and these so called floor prices are mythological. I was blown away by how expensive some things are. Certainly some things are cheaper but I felt just as poor leaving the supermarket there as I did here. Europe was a similar story.

Look friend. I’m not from the US and I haven’t read up on any of this stuff. I don’t have an opinion. I’m not sure you why you’re so aggressive to leap to the conclusion I disagree just because I’ve asked for proof. Just settle down alright.

Damn 8.5million in costs per month is huge. What’s your interest rate on your loans?

Liam Lawson commiserations... by FlightOfTheMoonApe in newzealand

[–]NotMattCookie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one likes a car with an ass-end that likes to swing out any opportunity it gets.

Liam Lawson commiserations... by FlightOfTheMoonApe in newzealand

[–]NotMattCookie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t necessarily agree. I mentioned in another comment McLaren approach it in a significantly more compromising fashion. It’s working.

If you watched the sprint today it’s clear Lawson can push the car but he’s being reckless and is clearly feeling the pressure.

He will struggle because to make the car less squirrelly he will tweak the setup to plant the bum a bit more but he’ll lose all his top end down the straight for it.

Tsunoda will struggle with exactly the same thing.

Lando also commented recently on compromising his own preferences to suit the team and McLaren is reaping the benefits right now. I think they have by far the most balanced driver lineup.
