if i explain the situation with work and income.
i think the fair thing for them to do is to back-pay so that i can pay my rent and i have enough to pay for various living expenses.
i think it would be great for me to be able to talk to a budget manager or financial advisor or whatever.
the problem is that i don't think the government will actually pay someone to provide that kind of advice. there was something about some charity that did that (so they could claim the tax breaks) who were using 'volunteers' to do the advising (slaves)...
i don't know that there is anyone to give sensible financial advice about what i should do with the inheritance funds.
i can only think to get the money out because i don't see a future for nz when it will not honor internatinal obligations (e.g., to human rights laws) and domestic statutes (e.g., the education act and protection for whisteblowers etc).
it isn't that there isn't enough money because the government managers and administrators... armies of them... on hundreds of thousands of dollars per year each.
but they will not pay sensible salaries for people to do biochecmistry reserarch or... ecology research... people to actually have jobs in biochemistry labs (in universities or in private business even) it's just not possible for anyone to function, here...
and various things like cleaning and so on... should really be part of a career progression thing... i mean... i do get that it could be a dream part-tiem job for some people in the right circumstances (with odd hours so they can be there with the kids, for example) but only if the jobs pay well and people are properly appreciative of just how important these jobs are...
but the leaders and so on treat them like 3rd class citizens expected to work for less than minimum wage intergenerationally...
it's not fair.
