TENANCY
"This is the second of a series of monthly posts. This one is about “Tenancy”.
According to a June 2022 Stats NZ report, 1 in 4 households that were renting, spent more than 40% of their disposable income on housing costs. For this reason, rent can significantly impact your household budget (refer our January "Budgeting" post).

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
33.7% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
65.2% No, I enjoy it
-
1.1% Other - I'll share below
