I tell myself I'm happy to live in NZ, and I believe it.
But then I come back to Europe and I miss everything that's here, even if I'm currently on a train that's over 2hrs delayed.. because at least they have trains!

When faced with too much art (esp religious), I like to play "which artist has *actually* seen that exotic animal they have attempted to paint" because there are some darn funny looking lions out there 😂

New Zealand income growth one of the worst in the world
The post-Covid recession has pushed our wage growth to near the bottom of global rankings.

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet.
The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year.

Tons of people have "PhD-level" intelligence. The fun secret is that you don't have to be all that smart to earn a PhD. You just have to be willing to work yourself into the ground for years on end.
Also...PhD's often seem extra smart 'cause you generally encounter them on their chosen terrain.
