Managing your own finances wisely is a life skill that is becoming ever more important for survival and wellbeing in the modern world, and yet many people don’t know how to make money work for them and often pay a high price for that lack of understanding.

Cambridge philanthropists John and Nicola Kenel see this knowledge gap as a serious issue for the wellbeing of individuals, families, communities and the nation, so last year they set up the ‘Waikato Financial Literacy Fund’ at Momentum Waikato.

You're invited to also support this initiative that aims to tackle this issue by funding financial literacy courses and tools for young people.

It is very effective in preventing cramps, and is excellent to relieve muscle pain if the pain is a result of magnesium shortage and restless leg syndrome. It is best to use it as a preventative treatment, but can be used for quick relieve of cramps, muscle pain and restless leg syndrome.

Butro Magnesium Balm is not a medicine, but simply a magnesium balm that I make, and judging by the responses I get form others who use it, should carry on making. I make no medical claims about the results when using the balm, but simply tell you of the results I and others have experienced.

Some of the benefits I and others have experienced:
• Relieves muscle aches and pains
• Relieves and prevents cramps
• Relieves restless leg syndrome symptoms
• Helps to enhance sleep

You can get more information when you visit my website https//:butrobalmsandoils.co.nz

Also available in 50g jars @ $8.

Price: $12

Even well-insulated homes can lose up to 45% of the room's heat without having adequate curtains. This is why Curtain Banks are in high demand at this time of year.

A petition is circulating to get curtains added as part of the Healthy Homes Standards in the hopes of helping renters avoid living in cold, damp conditions. Do you think curtains should be mandatory for New Zealand homes?
