Poll for those in NZ - what were your financial expectations before emigrating?
To tie in with the other poll i've just started, what were your expectations before emigrating of what your financial position would be?
Nothing scientfic, but if those already in NZ answer both polls honestly we might get a snapshot?!
It's a private poll so your vote will be anonymous!
We expected to manage to save for hols etc... as it turns out we're currently firmly in the paycheque to paycheque camp cos our circumstances altered somewhat (no one will employ me at the mo cos i'm up the duff, which we wouldn't change at all, but it's had something of an impact!)
(ps i posted the poll options without changing the tense from the other poll... sorry! hopefully the options make sense still!)
