Parity between the U.S. dollar and Kiwi peso on the horizon?


Americans can't get their economy sorted out with the Republicans playing a game of Russian roulette on debt and this crippling debt cap scheme.

Europeans are partially going to give up on defending Greece. They'll need to plan a better defence of other Eurozone debt.

I think Genesis is ill or given up his very liberal role as a quote kitchen bitch unquote. Heheh. He has been very quiet.

Genesis

Cos I am really hacked off with anything and everything to do with money. I appear to have the black curse in matters fiscal..and now my roof needs replacing..ta ta another $50-70k. And that is if I can find a builder who will do it. I have 11 on the quotation at present and everyone of them needs to be nurtured. Just like any time I need an artisan.

Ho hum.

Add into the mix a 10 year old son who is like beelzeebub incarnate (and even trys the patience of Kate who is the most laid back person on earth) and you have one pissed off mamma. And you know what they say about mamma not being happy.

BTW no probs about not exchanging at 2 for 1 as I think that is a crap rate inspite of it falling even lower. One day in the distant future things may improve..if not I will take the shite with the shite.

Here speaks someone who lives in one of the most affluent societies on earth and, at a guess, has a family income in the top 95th percentile of the human population. You where born lucky by being born in a western country!

It's all about perspective .

Genesis

I know. Currently my perspective is out of service. Normal service may not be resumed for some time. Over and out.

Hang in there Genesis. As the say "This to shall pass"

Genesis

Thank you. I think the passing will take many years, for the roof, my son and forex!!!!!

Scousebird

Gotta agree with that. Sometimes its easier to have nothing then your grateful for what you've got!

Why don't you get the son to get a student loan? Use it to fix the roof, default, and let him pay it off at $5 a week. By the time it's paid off, the pound will be usable again

Have you used the subject of money to bring Genesis out of hiding ? You little tinker ! I assumed as the schools were on holiday he was having quantity time with the children.

Rubbish, get the lad up there with some sheets of tin and nails . I remember replacing tiles on the roof of my grandparents house at about that age.

Genesis

I would C but it is a flat roof which I need to change to a steel long run with a 4-5 degree slope for longevity's sake. If only life was as easy as you suggest. I need a builder..now that is a BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG ask. Just to get them to the front door needs years of nurturing.
