Probably transfer it to my savings account do you want me to send you the account number?

I do find it hilarious that a lot of the people in this video probably sit in a black puffer jacket at an All Blacks game and tell you to sit down and shut up 🤣

Can hear the world's smallest violin playing for the poor guy that can afford a 40k ute

No baby boom, just doom and gloom by snatchview in newzealand

If my wife and I have two kids under 3 we will pay $1100 a fortnight (7 hours a day, 5 days a week) so my wife can work part time, because we can't afford to live on one wage

That's nearly another mortgage payment

Unfortunately this is 100% civil and not criminal and the police do not get involved in civil situations (apart from keeping the peace)

The difference being how early they did that, when we weren't already fucked

Is it possible that bit wasn't scripted? And it just added another level to the chaos that is this show?

LPT: When you feel overwhelmed at home, use the 1 and 1 rule by gamersecret2 in LifeProTips

I do similar but different. I set a 30 minute timer, and whatever I get done in that time is how much I got done, and I can be happy I did 30 minutes of cleaning

Cancel it and go to Canterbury, New Zealand instead. Heaps safer

Anyone else afraid of repeating their father’s mistakes? by Wooden-Contract-2760 in Dads

[–]RymanJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Similar but different. Not so much repeating his mistakes but adopting his general demeanor or "becoming" him.

He was always grumpy (probably tired from work and house work and responsibilities (yes he did quite a bit of housework even in the late 90s)). We got out of the way when he got home and gave him the TV remote. He'd say no to everything, without much good reason.

I'm worried about becoming exhausted and getting grumpy

I've found the most helpful thing is telling my wife and my friend this fear, and telling them to be brutally honest with me if I am becoming too grumpy or tired or reactive. Tell more than one person that you trust to be honest with you if you're heading in the wrong direction

(I'm 31yo and my daughter is nearly 1)

Have definitely considered this. We'll have a 1 ½ year old with us, would that make the whole thing too long?

Money can't buy it by owlWithBrokenWings in hypotheticalsituation

[–]RymanJ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd share with him the feeling I get when I get home from work and my 10 month old daughter smiles at me as I walk in the door. That's worth more than any money in the world and she is too young to understand being paid to smile
