Money Mail 151 - How The Economy Stops
In March Stats NZ told is that Gross domestic product (GDP) fell 0.6% in the December 2022 quarter. This means we are 1/2 way to a recession. Or maybe we are the whole way? A technical recession is 2 quarters of negative growth. 1 down, 1 to come. The second quarter is March 2022 which actually finishes today. Guess what? We won’t get that data until June.Hey thanks for listening! Please take some form of action from this content, don’t just be a consumer, become a producer!

Money Mail 150 - $27 tax free per week?
Turns out, working from home IS a thing and often employee's pay costs associated with this. During the cerveza sickness, the IRD increased the tax free allowance when working from home (because so many people were). Basically, employees can receive a tax free allowance each week, to cover any additional costs associated with working away from the office. I.e. power, telephone, internet usage or printing. NOTE: this is paid by their employer IF THEY WANT TO, it is not an obligation. Let's find out how this works!Hey thanks for listening!

Money Mail 149 - Doing it tough out there? Who to call
The number of people struggling financially is really starting to increase. Nearly 12% of Kiwis are currently behind on their debt repayments: personal loans, credit cards, BNPL etc. For some reason, it can be really hard for us Kiwis to ask for help.
