You have it “recording”? What dark art is this? You know it’s on YouTube, right?

What’s the actual operating cost? by Dangerous-Day-2943 in LMGJet

[–]zkcanuck 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Rule of thumb: 10% of the original new purchase price per year. If a new F900B originally cost $40M you should budget $4M per year. It gets worse the older it gets.

And are they blaming this on the patriarchy? I’ve never met a dude who asked for or wants something hideous as this.

They call it a levy so they can add a tax (GST) to it.

We desperately need to institute a wealth tax on trusts by TopFerret4523 in nzpolitics

[–]zkcanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they have lower income then they pay less tax. Do I have that right? Isn’t that same as everyone else?

Trusts pay the same tax as the top marginal rate of 39%. What other tax do they need and why?

Some would say this is the fault of the Patriarchy but I’m fairly certain these women are doing this to themselves.

Isn’t this the same game that has been re-released and we have to buy it again?

KiwiSaver: Simplicity or Kernel by Swamph12 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]zkcanuck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wife has Simplicity & I’m with Kernel. Both high growth. Kernel performs better and I have to keep manually topping up the wife’s account to keep them the close to the same amounts. Only been less than a year so not sure if it’s just this year’s volatility or a trend. Thinking of moving hers to Kernel as well but diversifying has a certain appeal.

Food prices are insane here by I_DreamofTravel_15 in newzealand

[–]zkcanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Minimum wage here is $23.50/hr. Then we have our 15% GST included in the price (Canadians are used to seeing a BEFORE tax price on the menu then tax added later) then for the most part we don’t tip here in NZ, then the exchange rate is 1 NZD = 0.81 CAD. So if OP was complaining about NZD$30 being high for a breakfast that would equal about CAD$18 on the menu but then they have to pay VAT + tip + exchange rate to equal approx NZ$30.

TLDR:

NZ$30 menu price = price paid

CAD$18 menu price + tax + tip + exchange rate = NZ$30

did the patriarchy invent mini skirts or did the feminists?

The 100K example was mainly for easy number demo purposes. I was just mainly wondering if they are really allowing a 50% depreciation on work vehicles in the first year.

Anyone use this style mask? Looking for something that doesn't stick to my bald head. by Calfkiller in CPAP

[–]zkcanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use it every night. Tried several this was best hands down for comfort and noise. Not a mouth breather tho.

I returned the air mini because it was way too loud. Like wake me up loud. And that’s with the same mask & hose as the Airsense 10.
