I'm positive about kiwisaver but glad I put a chunk of savings in another account. Like the lady in the article, I'm nibbling away at those savings while looking for work as an older person who can't yet access the kiwisaver funds.

Worldwide mortality experience since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2024) shows excess deaths over that period in almost every country measured. Australia (+6%) was below average, and New Zealand (+0.1%) the lowest we measured.

It was indeed lovely to see positive news today. I also watched nearly 30 minutes of a albatross census surveyor cycling through the moli colony at Midway atoll and that made me smile as well.

Yes it's just a building but it's letting yet more of his supporters/controllers funnel support money into his coffers in return for what favours?
