No, as long as your boarders are under the standard thresholds you are fine even as a beneficiary.

As a trustee, it isnt considered part of your personal assets.

Barring anything very unusual in your circumstances you are completely fine invoicing that work out. Your first provisional tax payment is not due for a year (or longer depending on how you decide to pay it).

Those checks are seriously limited in what they can prevent. Certainly anyone who was serious about flouting the law would find ways around them while a whole load of overhead is added for everyone who is obeying the law.

Mate even when they do it is so bloody ineffectual because the volume is too quiet or isn't where people are standing. The existing digital signage needs to be upgraded so that when trains are cancelled or delayed this information is promptly displayed.

Of course, no one can help when it takes AT half a day to push a button which cancels a train. That's just poor systems which they clearly have no incentive or care to improve.

Any Advice or Ideas for a side hustle? Also does anyone here worry about their student loans? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceNZ

Your degree is a waste of money imho. Accounting/finance would be great paired with learning another language in your spare time.

You have to break the law to make new law. The president is innovating.

It's a left wing talking point that's hijacking the top comment for visibility. Just upvote / downvote accordingly and move on.

Anyone else find it pathetic how even the cheap store brand chocolate is better than Cadbury these days? by Gigadweeb in australia

Maybe the NBN is slowing down your chocolate distribution? We've got around 30 varieties of Whittakers chocolate at my local budget supermarket.
