NZ Lifestyle

We have moved to NZ for close to 10 months now and we are really enjoying life here. As one of my Malaysian friend noted, NZers lived the lifestyle of millionaires. What he meant is that even though wages are low (in comparison to Singapore) with high income taxes, NZers are still able to live like millionaires because they live in big bungalows (at least 500 square metres) and drive big cars (at least a 2 litres car) and each adult is able to own a car. In addition, he also noted that nobody does work after 5.30pm. As for recreation, NZers have beautiful parks and big open land for children to roam about. For golf players, a game of golf only cost $12 for a 18 hole game. Last but not least, he also mention that one tend to live longer in NZ because the air is fresher and the life is less stressful.
