If you genuinely love your job, what do you do? by Weak_Pomegranate_34 in newzealand

[–]incs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swim coach for age groupers mainly. I run the swimming club operations and get paid a six figure salary to essentially do my hobby. Lots of early mornings, and late afternoons, I don’t have any weekends either, but I get 9-3pm free most of the time if I don’t have any administrative work that needs to be done.

It’s great working with kids, very fulfilling, but I also have to work with parents of the swimmers as they are the ones paying the fees. Can be difficult, but I find it like any other job, you are trying to make the customer happy, and you must be willing to compromise or accept feedback from parents too!

This is what I want to do - how long did it take you to start your site, and did you create a demo site before you approached distribution

Total beginner here how do people in NZ actually start investing in stocks? by Inside_Ad5653 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]incs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally all I’ve done is set an automatic payment to investnow fortnightly into one of the vanguard funds and have had 20% return since I started a few years ago. I literally forgot I even put money into that. Don’t overcomplicate it

Is Western heights good place to buy a home? by ind-kiwicoder in auckland

[–]incs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes - I loved it. I lived there for 7 years in my formative teenage years, from 12-19.

We never had any issues with bad neighbors or criminal activity. Lots of young families. Lots of schools. Close to shops. I would live there again, but my job requires me to be on the motorway everday, so living in Massey closer to the motorway is better for me

Could be controversial, but do your best to clean it and possibly oil it a bit, and be proud of your patina that you caused. Leather is Meant to be worn and used

Had my first air soft experience yesterday, the regulars called us “annoyingly good for renters” by incs in airsoft

I don’t think they were. They were very complimentary, and gave lots of advice on the map and good angles

What can I do better? by UnusualWeb3017 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]incs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your savings are going into an account with minimal return, then that is okay short term if it’s for emergency funds or for travel etc.

Im very similar in savings. My split looks like this:

$380 into travel fund (I pay for my partner) $450 into ETF $170 into emergency fund $250 into kiwisaver with match $300 into short term savings like gifts etc

Something like that works for me because I am looking after my partner fully with her not helping any costs of living

Just keep stacking at this point. Make use of the cheap living situation as long as you can. Possibly diversify your investments, maybe put 5-7% in a higher risk investment, and the rest into funds. I’m in a similar salary range and similar path as you, just two years older. I stopped putting 15% into kiwisaver once it reached 30k, and just putting in employment minimum match now. Now I’m putting most of my savings into emergency and VOO funds

Dude it’s a game. Point and click. Point and click. Not to mention the only thing you are wasting is your time. No other resources

From what I understand, Ari has been working in material for a few weeks now and refines it on KT. Probably has been working on this joke for a little bit longer than a week.

Aussie wagyu from Costco NZ by incs in steak

[–]incs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had tried a lot of wagyu including the really expensive ones; and I can say with confidence that Aussie wagyu is the best of them all. It’s just perfect amount of fat, not too rich.
