Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Helping local tradies stay on top of admin
Hi neighbours 👋
I’m Ollie from Your Tradie Support, based here in Stratford and helping tradies across NZ with the admin side of running their business.
A lot of tradies are brilliant at the work itself but end up doing quotes, invoicing and paperwork late at night after being on the tools all day — that’s where I help.
I don’t do bookkeeping — I help keep the day-to-day admin organised so everything runs smoother and easier.
If you know a local tradie who’s drowning in paperwork or always behind on invoices, feel free to point them my way 🙂
Always happy to chat and help where I can.
