…Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression followed by mass media manipulation.

Still, he’s handling it better than Mike Hosking is…

…if Mike’s doing it hard, spare a thought for Mark Richardson…

…never before have so many rich white men wept so many tears for so few actual Left wing policy gains.

  1. Where would they all like to go, I wonder…
    Maybe we could start up a “Go Fund Me” page for those sad, lost little fellas, and send them off to their ‘Happy Ever After’ places. Dubai, maybe?

  2. All 3 of them will make more money out of a labour government maintaining the status quo. If your house is located in a reasonable suburb you have likely had a value appreciation of 15% since covid19. We have based off a recent appraisal. Short of a large economic meltdown, the low interest rate environment supported be the RBNZ will ‘hard bake’ this gain and increase the size of our speculative bubble.

    So yes we’ll be angry but as property owners will be wealthier as the K-shaped economy means income inequality/asset owning becomes greater. This is the great irony of this whole election and now Clark and Cullen are openly endorsing this approach. People laughing now might be crying in a couple of years time. Of course this is wrong for the country and structurally has significant long term economic consequences that we will see when the money runs out.
