Sounds like a few coming from Australia
Know a group of Peruvians flying over from Queensland. The NZ visa can be a problem for them and not cheap ($200??).
Puts a bit of perspective to the squealing of some NZ football ‘fans’ about $100 match tickets
Maybe some of those NZ fans you're having a dig at actually might have trouble justifying $100 on a football match. I've read several people saying that the game has been priced out of their range. I can afford to go, some people aren't in a position to. Digs like yours aren't necessary.
Bull shark. If you are a passionate fan, your ambition should be how do I make an extra $100.
This week how much TV did you watch, how much time on Facebook, how much time looking at 'funny' cat videos on You Tube etc etc???? Basically did you completely waste say 5 hours this week where you could have earned $20/hr = extra $100.
This is a game played every 4 years. So an extreme view would be can I think of a way to make an extra $100 in the next 4 years.
I spent 5 years at uni, plus another 3 years bumming around London (had completely wrong degree to make any serious cash over there) or backpacking overseas. I know what it's like live off an oily rag - but my goal was always how do I find the cash to do something, I seriously wanted to do. I did any myriad of shark jobs to earn that cash. A positive mindset of where do I find the money takes you a long way in life.
Now in my forties I'm semi retired, having had some business success. Read books like Rich Dad Poor Dad or Life of Non Conformity for some inspiration.
Of course an alternative is to think where can I save $100, ie not go to the pub for a few weeks - and that's better than just moaning about your financial predicament/or blaming the govt! - but it's only by thinking positive thoughts about the world is my oyster, and thereby cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset that you will kick big goals.
Rant over.
