If you take out $800 from your KiwiSaver at 20, by the time you’re 65, a conservative estimate is that money would have been worth $16,801. That’s a 7% rate of return, so pretty conservative, and includes the impact of inflation (so it’s $16k) of today’s money.

I met the man who became my husband at an Amp Fiddler gig in London, 2004. Our 2 sons would never have existed without Amp - an impossible thought. We met him in Auckland 10yrs later. He left the stage to hug me in Everything is Possible. Thank you, Amp, for literally everything

Are many NZ scientists still here? I'm writing a short guide for scientists keen to start using social media for engagement & networking, and am v keen to talk to current users about their experience and pros/cons of X now!
