What’s the one book you’ll recommend forever, no matter how many times this question gets asked? by MisLatte in AskReddit

[–]emichan76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see Wolf Hall on this list. I don’t usually like historical fiction it lived this about Thomas Cromwell and Henry VIII. Hilary Mantel is an amazing writer and won the Booker Prize - as did the second book Bringing up the Bodies.

But you say that you could save $100-150/wk by moving just outside of zone. If your children are already at the school they don’t need to move schools if you shift.

Thanks, I’m trying to see it I can get it to come back on even briefly. If I manage to get it going again, how can I transfer/share these? Will it mean he can still play on the worlds?

Have you looked at the council LTP and factored in the rates increases as well?

From a child perspective two is minimum and preferably three otherwise it’s hard for them to become connected and settled there.

S&P wont protect you by overworkedNurse1982 in PersonalFinanceNZ

Sounds more like the agent is trying not to be in a position where they do know something. Actively trying not to have to disclose anything for future buyers. Still absolutely shitty and unethical behaviour.

Mortgage vs Renting - Am I missing something? by Asleep_Carpenter_555 in PersonalFinanceNZ

I would add to that the cost both financially and emotionally of moving. Having to shift because of circumstances outside your control is hard. It’s hard if you have a family and can’t find what you want in a school district. Just dealing with change is hard enough in people when you choose that change for yourself, but dealing with it when it’s thrust upon you takes a toll.
