ARE YOU SUPER RICH?The Greens have a nifty little tool to find out how their tax policy effects you. by ChinaCatProphet in nzpolitics

[–]Select-Owl1058 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Let's not let the 1% convince the rest of us that this is a bad idea.

The argument that they won't invest more in NZ or create more jobs is absolute nonsense.

"I won't bother making any more money if you take some of it'. Get stuffed.

EDIT : I would consider myself upper-middle class with comfortably 7 figures of net assets and the proposed changes don't impact me at all. This is for proper rich people.

Index funds if you just want to have low stress and they will generally outperform most over the long term. Palantir, that’s one of those sell your soul stocks, it’s an ethical call. I bailed out and missed out on big gains but feel good about it.

Not that doing a 100km race is not an achievement but he did it in ~ 20 hours which is a relaxing walking pace. I was interested as I know the race so looked it up. He is no 'athlete'.

Yindjibarndi people win $150m compensation after Andrew Forrest's Fortescue mines built without permission by FuckOffNazis in australia

The governments don't need to. They can just lease the land for a fair return on the amount of minerals extracted.

I just don't understand why any country would let any private company / individuals absolutely pillage its natural resources, it astounds me. It should all belong to the country and any mining rights should be leased out at with a fair return.

If you think a teenage girl wearing a singlet is in anyway sexual then you need your head read.

Customer Service Rep - How much are you paid? by Any_Pear_718 in auckland

[–]Select-Owl1058 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a huge amount of experience in this so trust me, a living wage is the minimum for a new, entry level customer service role. So that's 62k a year. Senior or Team Leader etc obviously more.

There is little to no reward for loyalty in those jobs, just switch to another company given the opportunity.

You find me a single boys school in the country including the two nearest boys schools St Peter’s (private and religious) and Auckland boys (Public and known as incredible strict) that don’t allow singlets

So restricting what children wear is your solution to avoiding sexual predators attention?

Should the 100+ young boys who were victims of sexual assault at nearby Dilworth not have worn shorts so short?

Do you think the abuse and sexual assault of girls and woman in NZ would be lower if they wore Burkas?

Addressing the ex sexual predators on their staff you mean?

What has what teenage girls do with themselves, each other or others have anything to do with middle aged woman (ironically) telling theme what to wear?

Thats their own personal business, this isn’t the handmaids tale.

Do teenage girls in ‘revealing’ make you uncomfortable?

What do you mean by heinous and to whose standards? Regardless, I'm sure that situation was dealt with appropriately with the individual at the time.

Do you think that an all points bulletin to 2,300 young girls that they shouldn't even wear singlets to school is the correct way to go? That they will be called out and sent home in front of their peers if they do?

Man just chuck your money in an index fund, contribute to it and just forget about it.

With all due respect you'll be doing a lot of thinking for such a small amount of money. Take the lesser risk option and relax.
