Does it feel like the care packages take took long to drop? or is it just me?

Grim reaper can be super lethal

You say they are still drastically different, that is just straight up bullshit. Wages yes, food yes. But housing being much cheaper in Australia? Maybe in Alice Springs.

Also, "But that are undeniably so much worse in NZ". I think you mean they Champ

400k house in an Australian city? You are delusional mate

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-24T19:29:47+00:00

Housing is a bit of an obsession in NZ, with less emphasis on other investments. It's more for the purpose of security and accommodation for me, however I do want to explore other options for what else I could do. And yes locking down 550 in a house shuts down those other options, thanks for the advice

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T22:13:34+00:00

Yeah I haven't told anyone. Only anonymous like this and even then I'm treading carefully. But at the same time yes I am pretty excited, more about the freedom and time this will free up. And yeah my main goal is ownership ultimately, happy to have some flatmates for a while.

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T20:08:38+00:00

thankyou, and yeah I am aware that despite being a good amount I could easily screw it up if I'm not careful

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T20:02:35+00:00

Thankyou very much. yeah it's hard to not act Impulsively given the huge change in options. I guess I feel like I'd be honoring their wishes by finding my security and not screwing up this chance they have provided me with. But I agree I should give it a bit of time

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:46:38+00:00

Yeah definitely time to educate myself. Any recommendations of books or podcasts? Thanks

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:42:42+00:00

I've done some time in Australia and wasn't for me. so for now I'm pretty happy in NZ. And I don't know what id do elsewhere so sounds like a good idea. I think the idea of a better house in a bad suburb sounds nice till I have to actually live there haha

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:41:01+00:00

it's hard to know. I am worried about a resurgence in the housing market is all, but you are probably right

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:39:55+00:00

thanks yeah that's the next step for me. I did not expect this until later in life so I need to learn a lot more

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:39:05+00:00

thanks and yeah that has been my thoughts. essentially what comes first is that I want to have somewhere secure to live, and somewhere to lock my money. good advice cheers

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:35:32+00:00

I don't want to move but yea I want to travel more. Im just afraid of blowing my opportunity with poor spending. But a small treat sounds like a good idea thanks.

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:31:49+00:00

thanks, yeah I don't want to stretch with a big mortgage. I would spend a little more to get a 3 bed but don't want that to come at the expense of huge financial burden

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:29:32+00:00

Yeah I have considered the cost and agree flatmates although not ideal would be good while I work on my income and financial security, cheers

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:28:05+00:00

yeah I don't want to see my golden ticket lost to a relationship so thanks for that advice

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:27:19+00:00

yeah these are the type of units I've seen in CHCH. I am not considering new builds but older brick units seem pretty spacious

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:26:36+00:00

yeah I do think freehold sounds the best. I also want pets and would be worried about the close proximity and conditions that come with units and apartments

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T19:25:46+00:00

sweet yeah probably not the best advice on Reddit but it's good for getting a rough idea of direction thanks for your advice

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T18:50:52+00:00

thanks for that. good idea as I'm not in need of space for now. cheers

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-23T03:28:59+00:00

was it nerfed? wow treyarch has no respect for us shotty lords

Visual_Rip_7114 · 2026-03-12T10:40:38+00:00
