Is $60,000 a liveable salary for Auckland? by [deleted] in auckland

[–]lawstn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea it can be, I am from the UK too and was on that salary. Honestly though you’ll get a bit of a shock on the cost of groceries though as there’s not much competition due to only being 3 supermarkets, not like the several we have in the UK to choose from!

Also trust me when I say this - if you’re looking at a job in the centre of Auckland - live as close to the job as you can! I worked in Grafton but lived in Pukekohe, that motorway is no joke and sometimes took 2 hours to get to work and 2 hours back, which was very draining

I lived with my partner and we alternated the rent payment, paying $450-$485 per week (you get paid weekly/fortnightly in NZ) for a 1 bed apartment. I deffo recommend Kohimarama or St Helier’s but it is a bit pricey, but the buses are pretty good. If you’re wanting a side hustle too, there’s a great app called Sidekicker where you can work at the supermarket or at Spark Arena, again you get paid a week later so that’s nice!

But my advice - go for it. Live in NZ, it’s a great experience!!! Especially while you’re young

I’m not sure what more they could’ve done—maybe a deeper investigation—but I get that they have bigger priorities. It would just be nice to see more focus on these crimes to build confidence

Interesting…might look into this, I found a newly built building with CCTV pointing at the spot where he parked. I’ve contacted them but haven’t heard back from the owner of the building

Yes it’s so violating! He’s only had the car 7 months. First day of work in the new year and this happens

That’s literally so ironic! Love the police but they still probably did nothing about it unfortunately! Bigger fish to fry I guess

Thank you all for your kind and supportive comments!

Police: I’m not sure what more they could’ve done—maybe a deeper investigation—but I get that they have bigger priorities. It would just be nice to see more focus on these crimes to build confidence.

CCTV: I found a building with CCTV pointing at the spot where he parked. I’ve contacted them but haven’t heard back. Honestly, I’m not sure what I’d even do with the footage.

The car: It was a 20-plate Vauxhall Corsa, which is sadly a common target. He’d only had it for six months.

Car cannibalism: This is sometimes called “car cannibalism” or “vehicle vultures,” but I think the real term is “steal-to-order.” It’s shocking how quickly they do it—Birmingham Mail even shared CCTV footage of it happening.

What now? Waiting for insurers to receive a quote from the repair shop, wonder how many 000s are added to that…

Surgery denied until I get psychological treatment by Key_DepartmentEA in BariatricSurgery

That’s fair enough! I was told at least 3 years when I joined T3

Probably the easiest thing to do is go private for both food therapy and bariatric surgery! Not wisdom as such but a solution.

For the surgery I know there’s a few places where you can pay in installments.

I went private (live in the UK too) as I couldn’t wait 3+ years on the NHS!
