After three o'clock, we'll have 104 00:04:28,973 --> 00:04:31,973 Speaker 3: a chat about the zectomy reversal. Doctors in New Zealand 105 00:04:31,973 --> 00:04:35,213 Speaker 3: are reporting a big increase in requests for that procedure 106 00:04:35,253 --> 00:04:39,413 Speaker 3: since twenty twenty one. Auckland GP, who performs those reversals, 107 00:04:39,413 --> 00:04:42,173 Speaker 3: says they have seen many more men come through each year, 108 00:04:42,213 --> 00:04:46,173 Speaker 3: often those who pause family plans during stressful even early 109 00:04:46,293 --> 00:04:49,853 Speaker 3: parenting years and are now seeking the procedure which reconnects. Actually, 110 00:04:49,893 --> 00:04:51,093 Speaker 3: I'm not going to read this part. I think we 111 00:04:51,573 --> 00:04:53,933 Speaker 3: know the medical we know what happens. 112 00:04:53,213 --> 00:04:55,773 Speaker 2: We basically understand how the plumbing works. 113 00:04:55,853 --> 00:04:59,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it costs around four grand, but many of 114 00:04:59,693 --> 00:05:02,773 Speaker 3: the higher end surgeries can cost up to twelve thousand dollars. 115 00:05:02,973 --> 00:05:05,693 Speaker 3: Success rate of up to ninety percent. How much is 116 00:05:05,733 --> 00:05:06,013 Speaker 3: it for? 117 00:05:06,133 --> 00:05:09,413 Speaker 2: So it's about seven hundred and fifty dollars to get 118 00:05:09,413 --> 00:05:12,853 Speaker 2: it done, yep. But high end reversal is fifteen hundred dollars. 119 00:05:12,973 --> 00:05:15,452 Speaker 3: Yeah, so the snip nice and cheap. The snap back 120 00:05:15,853 --> 00:05:16,813 Speaker 3: that's going to cost you a bit. 121 00:05:16,933 --> 00:05:19,053 Speaker 2: Well, Mayor Coxshawn, he's not the mayor anymore, but he 122 00:05:19,093 --> 00:05:20,813 Speaker 2: was the great district mayor for a very long time 123 00:05:21,573 --> 00:05:28,933 Speaker 2: down there on the West Coast. I think he had snip, reconnect, snip, reconnect, snip, reconnect, snip. 124 00:05:29,453 --> 00:05:31,533 Speaker 3: I don't know what a status is right now. I 125 00:05:31,573 --> 00:05:34,973 Speaker 3: think it was about five. So whether he's still back 126 00:05:35,013 --> 00:05:37,853 Speaker 3: and to potentially, you know, being able to have more children, 127 00:05:37,853 --> 00:05:38,253 Speaker 3: I don't know. 128 00:05:38,333 --> 00:05:40,653 Speaker 2: Well, if your relationship breaks up so you've got a 129 00:05:40,693 --> 00:05:42,933 Speaker 2: few kids, your relationship ends, and then you get into 130 00:05:42,933 --> 00:05:45,893 Speaker 2: another relationship and that person either hasn't had kids yet 131 00:05:45,933 --> 00:05:48,093 Speaker 2: or once have kids with you. Yeah, you know, have 132 00:05:48,173 --> 00:05:50,133 Speaker 2: you done it? You have you reconnected the plumber. 133 00:05:50,213 --> 00:05:51,813 Speaker 3: It's a big call to make looking forward to that 134 00:05:51,933 --> 00:05:54,533 Speaker 3: after three o'clock. After two o'clock, a new report has 135 00:05:54,613 --> 00:05:57,653 Speaker 3: highlighted growing frustration among New Zealand homeowners who say their 136 00:05:57,693 --> 00:06:01,053 Speaker 3: solar systems aren't delivering the savings they expected. And in 137 00:06:01,093 --> 00:06:03,893 Speaker 3: some cases they're even drawing power from the grid on 138 00:06:04,093 --> 00:06:07,053 Speaker 3: sunny days. So the people spoken to in this report 139 00:06:07,173 --> 00:06:09,773 Speaker 3: said that they are seen higher than expected power bills 140 00:06:09,813 --> 00:06:13,493 Speaker 3: confusing import export readings on their systems. And again that 141 00:06:13,613 --> 00:06:18,053 Speaker 3: system drawing the grid power during full sunshine. So that's 142 00:06:18,333 --> 00:06:19,733 Speaker 3: kind of the opposite of what you want. When you're 143 00:06:19,733 --> 00:06:21,933 Speaker 3: install solly, you pay a pretty penny for it, up 144 00:06:21,973 --> 00:06:25,013 Speaker 3: to thirty k and if it's stall drawing power from 145 00:06:25,053 --> 00:06:28,973 Speaker 3: the grids, then I don't know. Solar really the be 146 00:06:29,093 --> 00:06:30,973 Speaker 3: all and into a lot of people rave about Solace 147 00:06:31,013 --> 00:06:32,893 Speaker 3: and it was the best thing I've ever done to 148 00:06:32,973 --> 00:06:35,493 Speaker 3: get it installed in their home. Well, yeah, while. 149 00:06:35,373 --> 00:06:40,693 Speaker 2: You're sharing your chardonnaise on the deck, you can look up, 150 00:06:40,933 --> 00:06:44,453 Speaker 2: you can be you'd come across as virtuous, and you 151 00:06:44,493 --> 00:06:48,133 Speaker 2: can smugly look at your friends who were just sucking 152 00:06:48,213 --> 00:06:49,493 Speaker 2: juice straight out of the socket. 153 00:06:49,653 --> 00:06:52,053 Speaker 3: Yep, and go a couple. 154 00:06:51,853 --> 00:06:55,173 Speaker 2: Of years ago, me and Maureen got the solar power 155 00:06:55,173 --> 00:06:57,653 Speaker 2: and that makes us better than the rest of you blibs. Yeah, 156 00:06:57,653 --> 00:07:00,053 Speaker 2: it's a good investment on smugness, Yeah for sure. Yeah, 157 00:07:00,093 --> 00:07:02,973 Speaker 2: So taking smugness returns or through the roof, So. 158 00:07:03,013 --> 00:07:05,773 Speaker 3: Taking your calls after two o'clock if you've installed solar, 159 00:07:06,013 --> 00:07:07,533 Speaker 3: was it all that it cracked up to be, because 160 00:07:07,533 --> 00:07:09,493 Speaker 3: there's been a lot of claims made about how good 161 00:07:09,493 --> 00:07:12,253 Speaker 3: it is.

Because I didn't really run my head across this. 175 00:07:56,053 --> 00:07:58,053 Speaker 2: I just heard the five million dollars and I thought, yeah, 176 00:07:58,053 --> 00:07:59,973 Speaker 2: if someone can afford a five million dollar house here 177 00:07:59,973 --> 00:08:01,733 Speaker 2: and they're going to buy it, then that's pumping some 178 00:08:01,773 --> 00:08:04,013 Speaker 2: money into the economy, got on them, but I didn't 179 00:08:04,013 --> 00:08:07,053 Speaker 2: realize the rest of what you need, and it's quite 180 00:08:07,093 --> 00:08:11,253 Speaker 2: a lot. So need to meet strict criteria in the 181 00:08:11,413 --> 00:08:16,573 Speaker 2: active investor plus visa. Right, So there's two investment categories 182 00:08:16,613 --> 00:08:18,853 Speaker 2: on top of the buying the house for five million 183 00:08:18,973 --> 00:08:22,213 Speaker 2: or above. The Growth category deals with higher risk investments, 184 00:08:22,213 --> 00:08:25,133 Speaker 2: including managed funds and direct investments in New Zealand businesses 185 00:08:25,173 --> 00:08:28,133 Speaker 2: and requires a minimum investment of five million dollars over 186 00:08:28,173 --> 00:08:32,493 Speaker 2: three years. And the Balance category deals with lower risk 187 00:08:32,612 --> 00:08:35,893 Speaker 2: investments and requires a minimum investment of ten million dollars 188 00:08:35,973 --> 00:08:38,573 Speaker 2: over five years. So to buy a build a New 189 00:08:38,653 --> 00:08:41,132 Speaker 2: Zealand house, they must have at least another five million 190 00:08:41,132 --> 00:08:44,333 Speaker 2: dollars available. That's quite a lot, isn't it. The application 191 00:08:44,453 --> 00:08:47,292 Speaker 2: is twenty seven, four hundred and seventy as well. 192 00:08:47,612 --> 00:08:49,732 Speaker 3: That's a bigger Yeah, it's a lot of cash. It's 193 00:08:49,773 --> 00:08:52,093 Speaker 3: a lot of moula to pump into coming to New 194 00:08:52,132 --> 00:08:53,653 Speaker 3: Zealand and building or buying a home. 195 00:08:53,973 --> 00:08:55,133 Speaker 2: Is that too hard? 196 00:08:56,213 --> 00:08:56,453 Speaker 5: You know? 197 00:08:57,173 --> 00:08:59,453 Speaker 2: There's that too hard because we want to have these 198 00:08:59,813 --> 00:09:02,933 Speaker 2: high level operators coming into our country, these successful people, 199 00:09:02,973 --> 00:09:06,732 Speaker 2: don't we Because you know, you'd imagine if they're operating 200 00:09:06,773 --> 00:09:08,893 Speaker 2: that area, they're going to bring more value than that. Yeah, 201 00:09:08,973 --> 00:09:10,893 Speaker 2: you know, it's not just the value of the direct 202 00:09:11,132 --> 00:09:14,532 Speaker 2: money they're pumping into the economy. It's whatever skills they 203 00:09:14,573 --> 00:09:17,732 Speaker 2: bring to the economy, whatever connections they bring to the economy, 204 00:09:17,813 --> 00:09:21,372 Speaker 2: you know. Yeah, so surely that is too arduous, right, 205 00:09:21,533 --> 00:09:24,252 Speaker 2: could we not whack it back down to I don't know, 206 00:09:24,653 --> 00:09:27,333 Speaker 2: three million dollars? If it was a three million dollars 207 00:09:27,852 --> 00:09:31,173 Speaker 2: or above house, that's not going to affect first home buyers, 208 00:09:31,213 --> 00:09:34,852 Speaker 2: is it. No, definitely in most parts of the country. 209 00:09:35,213 --> 00:09:38,053 Speaker 2: And maybe let's bring it down to three million dollar 210 00:09:38,093 --> 00:09:39,773 Speaker 2: investment or six million dollar investment. 211 00:09:39,773 --> 00:09:42,333 Speaker 3: I'm just making up these numbers as are too hard. 212 00:09:42,333 --> 00:09:44,573 Speaker 3: I wait, one hundred and eighty t and eighty. I mean, 213 00:09:45,173 --> 00:09:48,133 Speaker 3: remember there was a massive outcry about foreigners coming in 214 00:09:48,173 --> 00:09:51,213 Speaker 3: and buy New Zealand times, and so the National government 215 00:09:51,213 --> 00:09:54,173 Speaker 3: wanted to push this through for investment into the country 216 00:09:54,173 --> 00:09:54,732 Speaker 3: which we need. 217 00:09:54,813 --> 00:09:59,973 Speaker 2: Are you talking about the twenty eighteen legislation that came through, correct, Yeah. 218 00:09:59,732 --> 00:10:02,372 Speaker 3: So this was effectively that this was a hard won 219 00:10:02,413 --> 00:10:04,492 Speaker 3: concession for National when they formed up with New Zealand 220 00:10:04,533 --> 00:10:07,693 Speaker 3: First Rights hastrictionly been no foreigners labor in. 221 00:10:07,653 --> 00:10:10,652 Speaker 2: New Zealand's fe A coalition government pushed through the legislation 222 00:10:11,132 --> 00:10:14,093 Speaker 2: aimed at curbing house prices that they believe will being 223 00:10:14,173 --> 00:10:17,213 Speaker 2: driven up by wealthy foreign investors. 224 00:10:17,293 --> 00:10:21,172 Speaker 3: Yes, so have we started to because collectively, which it's 225 00:10:21,213 --> 00:10:23,853 Speaker 3: just some argument there, right. Yeah. So if people are. 226 00:10:23,732 --> 00:10:26,573 Speaker 2: Just coming in and can willing nelly buy a two 227 00:10:26,612 --> 00:10:30,253 Speaker 2: million dollar house, I get that, But five million dollars 228 00:10:30,293 --> 00:10:33,933 Speaker 2: and plus potentially ten million dollar investment over five years, 229 00:10:34,573 --> 00:10:37,252 Speaker 2: I don't know, that seems a pretty high bar. There 230 00:10:37,252 --> 00:10:39,973 Speaker 2: has been fifteen hundred foreigners have applied for the visa 231 00:10:40,132 --> 00:10:43,413 Speaker 2: since it became available in April to apply for it. 232 00:10:43,773 --> 00:10:46,693 Speaker 2: United States, China, Hong Kong and Germany are the main 233 00:10:46,732 --> 00:10:49,253 Speaker 2: places where people have been looking at it from. 234 00:10:49,413 --> 00:10:51,732 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, if you crunch the numbers on what 235 00:10:51,973 --> 00:10:54,852 Speaker 3: Erica Stamford expects to say, one hundred to one hundred 236 00:10:54,852 --> 00:10:57,532 Speaker 3: and fifty applications in the first year, that's anywhere between 237 00:10:57,573 --> 00:11:01,053 Speaker 3: fifty to seventy five million dollars invested in just that 238 00:11:01,173 --> 00:11:03,093 Speaker 3: year alone. There's nothing to be sniffed at, is it. 239 00:11:03,293 --> 00:11:06,012 Speaker 3: That's just with their investment side of things, let alone. 240 00:11:06,012 --> 00:11:07,373 Speaker 3: If they decide to build a property. 241 00:11:07,573 --> 00:11:10,732 Speaker 2: Well, just doing some back of paper calculations here, if 242 00:11:11,012 --> 00:11:14,052 Speaker 2: all fifteen hundred dollars fifteen hundred of those applicants came 243 00:11:14,093 --> 00:11:17,573 Speaker 2: through then, and that's just the start, then what is 244 00:11:17,612 --> 00:11:21,293 Speaker 2: that that that's fifteen billion dollars If they actually, if 245 00:11:21,293 --> 00:11:23,852 Speaker 2: they all do the ten million, yep, then that's fifteen 246 00:11:23,852 --> 00:11:25,733 Speaker 2: billion dollars in that side of it, not counting the 247 00:11:25,852 --> 00:11:27,333 Speaker 2: five million dollar investment in the house. 248 00:11:27,372 --> 00:11:29,652 Speaker 3: That would be lovely fifteen billion dollar cash injection. 249 00:11:29,852 --> 00:11:33,172 Speaker 2: If it's of course, if it's the other, if they're 250 00:11:33,213 --> 00:11:36,173 Speaker 2: all doing the five million, then it's what seven point 251 00:11:36,252 --> 00:11:40,973 Speaker 2: five billion? I guess, and we put it halfway between. 252 00:11:41,252 --> 00:11:44,733 Speaker 2: I actually should do these numbers. What eleven point something billion? 253 00:11:44,852 --> 00:11:46,292 Speaker 3: It all sounds pretty good if it's got to be 254 00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:48,413 Speaker 3: on the end of it. You know, my thinking is 255 00:11:48,413 --> 00:11:49,773 Speaker 3: bring it on. But what do you say, I eight 256 00:11:49,773 --> 00:11:52,573 Speaker 3: one hundred eighty ten eighty Is this the right sea? 257 00:11:52,892 --> 00:11:55,693 Speaker 2: Lower the threshold a little bit, then maybe you're getting 258 00:11:56,252 --> 00:11:59,053 Speaker 2: five thousand people taking it up yep, you know, rather 259 00:11:59,093 --> 00:12:02,252 Speaker 2: than well, fifteen hundred of applied, maybe you get ten 260 00:12:02,293 --> 00:12:02,973 Speaker 2: thousand applying. 261 00:12:03,293 --> 00:12:04,893 Speaker 3: That's a fair argument. So what do you say, oh, 262 00:12:04,892 --> 00:12:08,693 Speaker 3: eight hundred eighty ten eighty. Is this active in investor 263 00:12:08,773 --> 00:12:11,813 Speaker 3: golden visa restrictions? Are they too much? Do we need 264 00:12:11,813 --> 00:12:13,732 Speaker 3: to loosen them to get more investment into the country. 265 00:12:13,852 --> 00:12:16,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, as danpoints out, national we're pushing for 266 00:12:16,892 --> 00:12:18,813 Speaker 2: two million, but when he made it five. 267 00:12:19,053 --> 00:12:21,652 Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty, So we're 268 00:12:21,653 --> 00:12:23,372 Speaker 3: a national right all along? Should it have been two 269 00:12:23,372 --> 00:12:26,693 Speaker 3: million dollars? Or are the settings about right? Keen to 270 00:12:26,732 --> 00:12:29,693 Speaker 3: hear your stories and views. It is seventeen past one, 271 00:12:29,813 --> 00:12:31,852 Speaker 3: beg very shortly, the. 272 00:12:31,693 --> 00:12:35,653 Speaker 1: Big stories, the big issues, the big trends and everything 273 00:12:35,653 --> 00:12:36,213 Speaker 1: in between. 274 00:12:36,372 --> 00:12:39,652 Speaker 6: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons used talks. 275 00:12:39,333 --> 00:12:42,813 Speaker 3: That'd be it is twenty past one. So from tomorrow 276 00:12:42,852 --> 00:12:45,292 Speaker 3: the door will reopen in a limited way to foreign 277 00:12:45,293 --> 00:12:48,893 Speaker 3: buyers entering the housing housing market in New Zealand. This 278 00:12:48,973 --> 00:12:52,133 Speaker 3: is the active investor plus Golden visa category and there's 279 00:12:52,252 --> 00:12:56,053 Speaker 3: big obstacles for those who want to come in and invest. 280 00:12:56,132 --> 00:12:58,012 Speaker 2: But as long as I've got the cash, they can 281 00:12:58,053 --> 00:13:00,372 Speaker 2: buy a home or buy build in New Zealand. So 282 00:13:00,413 --> 00:13:02,132 Speaker 2: what do you say, Craigsy's You've got to remember that 283 00:13:02,132 --> 00:13:04,652 Speaker 2: there would be international visitors that you've also got to 284 00:13:04,693 --> 00:13:05,453 Speaker 2: take the account. 285 00:13:05,892 --> 00:13:06,132 Speaker 3: Yeah. 286 00:13:06,173 --> 00:13:08,933 Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm reading this out as it's written. But basically, 287 00:13:08,933 --> 00:13:11,573 Speaker 2: what they're saying is the exchange rate in terms US dollars. 288 00:13:11,693 --> 00:13:14,253 Speaker 2: So you're looking at nearly half that. That's an interesting 289 00:13:14,333 --> 00:13:18,693 Speaker 2: question because that's half that and you know, even less 290 00:13:18,732 --> 00:13:22,653 Speaker 2: if you're European. But do we really care about that 291 00:13:22,813 --> 00:13:24,892 Speaker 2: because it's still the same money from US, it's still 292 00:13:24,933 --> 00:13:29,013 Speaker 2: the investment into New Zealand. Or do you think that 293 00:13:29,053 --> 00:13:31,053 Speaker 2: they're kind of a less of a quality person? So 294 00:13:31,093 --> 00:13:34,172 Speaker 2: we go, we're not really getting a five million dollar 295 00:13:34,892 --> 00:13:36,933 Speaker 2: person with five million dollars to buy a house and 296 00:13:36,973 --> 00:13:41,093 Speaker 2: ten million dollars to invest into our economy. That ischelon 297 00:13:41,132 --> 00:13:44,693 Speaker 2: of person, that ischelon of wealth. It's kind of harved 298 00:13:45,053 --> 00:13:48,413 Speaker 2: because of the exchange rate. It's interesting because, yeah, if 299 00:13:48,453 --> 00:13:50,732 Speaker 2: you drop it to say two million dollars and then 300 00:13:50,773 --> 00:13:53,252 Speaker 2: they need two million to invest, do the exchange rate 301 00:13:53,333 --> 00:13:57,053 Speaker 2: for an American and that roughly you've just got some loser. 302 00:13:57,492 --> 00:13:59,132 Speaker 2: They can only scratch together a million bucks. 303 00:13:59,213 --> 00:14:01,132 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, net worth of two million. There's a lot 304 00:14:01,173 --> 00:14:02,893 Speaker 3: of Americans with a net worth of two million. Are 305 00:14:02,933 --> 00:14:04,733 Speaker 3: they the cream of the crop? To me? It doesn't 306 00:14:04,732 --> 00:14:07,453 Speaker 3: really matter. I think it is. You know that investment 307 00:14:07,533 --> 00:14:10,813 Speaker 3: back into New Zealand. You want wealthy individuals to come 308 00:14:10,892 --> 00:14:13,732 Speaker 3: to a country, surely because they bring in their expertise 309 00:14:13,773 --> 00:14:16,213 Speaker 3: and they bring in their money and investing it into 310 00:14:16,252 --> 00:14:16,732 Speaker 3: this country. 311 00:14:16,813 --> 00:14:19,413 Speaker 2: Well, the visa holders must still pass a good character 312 00:14:19,453 --> 00:14:22,453 Speaker 2: test and submit their house buying plans and such. 313 00:14:23,013 --> 00:14:24,573 Speaker 3: So there's a lot they have to do. 314 00:14:24,613 --> 00:14:26,532 Speaker 2: And they have to spend twenty seven four hundred and 315 00:14:26,533 --> 00:14:28,053 Speaker 2: seventy so they have to be pretty keen. So they 316 00:14:28,093 --> 00:14:30,533 Speaker 2: have to be proven to be of good character. They 317 00:14:30,613 --> 00:14:33,373 Speaker 2: have to have designed their house or have plans for 318 00:14:33,413 --> 00:14:36,973 Speaker 2: their house and that admin cost This is great, What 319 00:14:37,013 --> 00:14:39,613 Speaker 2: a great way to fleece them the twenty seven four 320 00:14:39,653 --> 00:14:41,213 Speaker 2: hundred and seventy dollars admin costs. 321 00:14:41,213 --> 00:14:43,893 Speaker 3: Who made that up? Yeah? Who made that? 322 00:14:43,893 --> 00:14:45,292 Speaker 2: It's like how much you get charged to get a 323 00:14:45,333 --> 00:14:48,053 Speaker 2: driver's license when you go to Raratonga for the for 324 00:14:48,093 --> 00:14:49,932 Speaker 2: the scooters. It's just it's just you make up a 325 00:14:50,013 --> 00:14:51,493 Speaker 2: number so you to rate them up. They're not going 326 00:14:51,533 --> 00:14:53,213 Speaker 2: to care if they bringing in ten million dollars. But 327 00:14:53,253 --> 00:14:55,533 Speaker 2: what do you say, I one hundred eighty ten eighty 328 00:14:55,653 --> 00:14:57,493 Speaker 2: is that number to call a nine two ninety two 329 00:14:57,653 --> 00:14:59,693 Speaker 2: is the text the seas is maybe there should be 330 00:15:00,413 --> 00:15:03,213 Speaker 2: different limits by region. There wouldn't be a five million 331 00:15:03,293 --> 00:15:05,773 Speaker 2: dollar house to buy in some regions. Yeah, I think 332 00:15:05,813 --> 00:15:08,893 Speaker 2: the most there's Vario Show thinks only zer zero point 333 00:15:08,893 --> 00:15:12,573 Speaker 2: five percent of houses in New Zealand. 334 00:15:12,613 --> 00:15:13,093 Speaker 3: I could be wrong. 335 00:15:13,093 --> 00:15:14,573 Speaker 2: I think I could be pulling that number out of 336 00:15:14,613 --> 00:15:17,533 Speaker 2: my butt, but I think I read that somewhere. So 337 00:15:17,533 --> 00:15:19,773 Speaker 2: it's a very small percentage of houses in New Zealand 338 00:15:19,813 --> 00:15:23,733 Speaker 2: are above five million, and they're nearly all in Auckland 339 00:15:24,533 --> 00:15:28,373 Speaker 2: or you know the lakes district around Queenstown, and even 340 00:15:28,533 --> 00:15:33,853 Speaker 2: in Auckland they're really centered around Remuera and Parnell and 341 00:15:33,853 --> 00:15:37,053 Speaker 2: Herne Bay and such. Yes, So if you think of 342 00:15:37,093 --> 00:15:39,813 Speaker 2: it in terms of I'm trying to think of an 343 00:15:39,813 --> 00:15:42,172 Speaker 2: analogy here. If you've got a lake and you pour 344 00:15:42,213 --> 00:15:44,813 Speaker 2: a bucket into it, then it doesn't make much difference. Yeah, 345 00:15:45,053 --> 00:15:47,373 Speaker 2: But if the bucket's being pulled and poured into the 346 00:15:47,373 --> 00:15:50,052 Speaker 2: bathtub of Remuera, then it's going to make quite a 347 00:15:50,053 --> 00:15:53,373 Speaker 2: big difference on the house prices in that particular area potentially. 348 00:15:53,533 --> 00:15:56,733 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean the concern that I see from some 349 00:15:56,773 --> 00:15:59,053 Speaker 3: people is around the land and maybe to that point 350 00:15:59,093 --> 00:16:00,693 Speaker 3: as well, that if you've got five million dollars and 351 00:16:00,733 --> 00:16:04,213 Speaker 3: you're buying up a decent section in say the West Coast, 352 00:16:04,373 --> 00:16:05,733 Speaker 3: you're going to get a lot of the West Coast 353 00:16:05,733 --> 00:16:08,013 Speaker 3: for five million dollars. And perhaps that's where some of 354 00:16:08,013 --> 00:16:10,933 Speaker 3: the worry comes from that, you know, this whole idea 355 00:16:11,013 --> 00:16:13,733 Speaker 3: of foreigners. They don't they didn't grow up here and 356 00:16:13,773 --> 00:16:15,533 Speaker 3: they're going to come in and buy a good chunk 357 00:16:15,613 --> 00:16:19,093 Speaker 3: of Wisport. I can see why that would consume people. 358 00:16:19,333 --> 00:16:21,653 Speaker 3: But if they're investing back into Wisport, surely that is 359 00:16:21,693 --> 00:16:24,853 Speaker 3: a good thing. They're not going to Wisport Tyler, why not? 360 00:16:25,413 --> 00:16:26,093 Speaker 3: It's a lovely place. 361 00:16:26,093 --> 00:16:28,653 Speaker 2: As much as I love Wisport and love the love 362 00:16:28,693 --> 00:16:31,573 Speaker 2: the coast, they're not going there that they just. 363 00:16:31,493 --> 00:16:35,333 Speaker 3: Aren't Queenstown Wanaka part. 364 00:16:35,413 --> 00:16:37,453 Speaker 2: Now, well, if they bought a house where I grow up, 365 00:16:37,493 --> 00:16:39,453 Speaker 2: they could get a you know, I grew up in 366 00:16:39,493 --> 00:16:43,133 Speaker 2: Dunedin and there's those lovely old houses that need people 367 00:16:43,173 --> 00:16:45,373 Speaker 2: to spend some money on. You butt, five million dollars, 368 00:16:45,413 --> 00:16:48,613 Speaker 2: you're going to get a house with some stables, some servants, quarters, 369 00:16:49,533 --> 00:16:52,893 Speaker 2: decent piece of land, be beautiful old Victorian house. Five 370 00:16:52,893 --> 00:16:55,333 Speaker 2: million dollars. Ye, lovely for a bunch of people came 371 00:16:55,333 --> 00:16:57,693 Speaker 2: in and invested in Dunedin then, because a lot of 372 00:16:57,693 --> 00:17:00,253 Speaker 2: those houses are in trouble because no one wants to 373 00:17:00,253 --> 00:17:02,693 Speaker 2: spend the money they need to upkeep. So you know, 374 00:17:02,733 --> 00:17:04,372 Speaker 2: you can come here, but you have to buy. 375 00:17:04,973 --> 00:17:08,532 Speaker 3: A rundown old Victorian manner in Dunedin.

So from tomorrow wealthy individuals can 413 00:18:29,653 --> 00:18:32,053 Speaker 3: come into New Zealand and buy property worth five million 414 00:18:32,093 --> 00:18:34,893 Speaker 3: bucks as long as they invest the significant amounts as well. 415 00:18:35,133 --> 00:18:37,453 Speaker 3: Does that need to be lowered more flexibility to get 416 00:18:37,493 --> 00:18:39,493 Speaker 3: more wealthy individuals into the country. 417 00:18:39,853 --> 00:18:43,733 Speaker 2: Here's a text that I would describe as not greatly 418 00:18:43,813 --> 00:18:47,293 Speaker 2: thought out. Okay, but it doesn't resent an attitude that 419 00:18:47,333 --> 00:18:49,853 Speaker 2: some people have good No one should be allowed to 420 00:18:49,853 --> 00:18:52,013 Speaker 2: move to New Zealand while our child poverty rates are 421 00:18:52,013 --> 00:18:54,293 Speaker 2: so high, we don't have enough to look after who 422 00:18:54,373 --> 00:18:57,532 Speaker 2: we have, and you want to bring in more people 423 00:18:57,893 --> 00:19:01,453 Speaker 2: in when there's no kids, when there is no kids 424 00:19:01,493 --> 00:19:05,213 Speaker 2: going hungry, then maybe we should consider these rich bastards 425 00:19:05,253 --> 00:19:07,373 Speaker 2: coming here. Until then shut the gate. But I think 426 00:19:07,413 --> 00:19:10,693 Speaker 2: the idea is that you grow the wealth of the 427 00:19:10,733 --> 00:19:14,373 Speaker 2: country by bringing these people in. So these people that 428 00:19:15,573 --> 00:19:20,532 Speaker 2: suggesting that come in on the golden visas aren't going 429 00:19:20,573 --> 00:19:23,013 Speaker 2: to be increasing child poverty rates. If they've bought a 430 00:19:23,053 --> 00:19:26,292 Speaker 2: five million dollar house, they're not going to have children 431 00:19:26,373 --> 00:19:29,413 Speaker 2: living in poverty in those houses. They'll be having children 432 00:19:29,533 --> 00:19:32,493 Speaker 2: living in great privilege. And the idea was that they 433 00:19:32,533 --> 00:19:36,653 Speaker 2: would bring money into the economy, grow the economy. They'd 434 00:19:36,653 --> 00:19:40,293 Speaker 2: be skilled people that bring business here, bring connections here, 435 00:19:40,573 --> 00:19:44,693 Speaker 2: and we have less children in poverty. That would be 436 00:19:44,693 --> 00:19:49,013 Speaker 2: the idea. That's why you try and grow the economy. Also, 437 00:19:49,053 --> 00:19:51,453 Speaker 2: it's important to remember that those child poverty stacks were 438 00:19:51,533 --> 00:19:54,052 Speaker 2: child hardship stats, not child poverty stats. 439 00:19:54,453 --> 00:19:55,973 Speaker 3: So a lot of the. 440 00:19:55,933 --> 00:19:58,613 Speaker 2: Countries around the world would look at what we consider 441 00:19:58,613 --> 00:20:01,893 Speaker 2: poverty and go that's pretty good. Yeah, spot on, and 442 00:20:01,933 --> 00:20:04,413 Speaker 2: that's something we should be proud of. 443 00:20:04,773 --> 00:20:07,933 Speaker 3: Oh, eight, one hundred eighty ten eighty. I'm just going 444 00:20:08,013 --> 00:20:10,573 Speaker 3: to say, you know, the old foreign buyer ban as 445 00:20:10,573 --> 00:20:13,293 Speaker 3: a whole came in under labor in twenty eighteen, and 446 00:20:13,413 --> 00:20:15,453 Speaker 3: National Loan sort of pushed back there, but they kept 447 00:20:15,453 --> 00:20:18,572 Speaker 3: it when they got into government, they kept it. But 448 00:20:18,813 --> 00:20:21,053 Speaker 3: I just thinking a lot of things have changed since 449 00:20:21,413 --> 00:20:23,812 Speaker 3: people were really worried about that in twenty eighteen. We're 450 00:20:23,853 --> 00:20:26,293 Speaker 3: now in a situation where the economy needs to grow 451 00:20:26,333 --> 00:20:28,253 Speaker 3: and we need to get back on our feet and recover. 452 00:20:28,853 --> 00:20:32,053 Speaker 3: Is that same sentiment out there? I would, you know, 453 00:20:32,133 --> 00:20:34,532 Speaker 3: put my hand up and say, what's the problem with 454 00:20:34,693 --> 00:20:37,653 Speaker 3: just removing the foreign buyer ban all together. I know 455 00:20:37,693 --> 00:20:39,812 Speaker 3: there's a lot of people concerned about the housing market 456 00:20:39,933 --> 00:20:42,133 Speaker 3: and first home buyers and you've got to allow for 457 00:20:42,213 --> 00:20:44,813 Speaker 3: New Zealanders to have access to a house, But is 458 00:20:44,853 --> 00:20:47,532 Speaker 3: that really a problem we're facing right now? Is that 459 00:20:47,613 --> 00:20:49,533 Speaker 3: really a concern for a lot of people out there 460 00:20:49,933 --> 00:20:53,053 Speaker 3: that if you encourage people to come here and work 461 00:20:53,093 --> 00:20:54,773 Speaker 3: and allow them to buy a house and set up 462 00:20:54,773 --> 00:20:58,493 Speaker 3: a family and contribute. It was just this weird pushback 463 00:20:58,613 --> 00:21:01,013 Speaker 3: back in twenty eighteen, and it was you know, it 464 00:21:01,053 --> 00:21:04,773 Speaker 3: came down to Phil Dweford unfairly saying that all these 465 00:21:04,773 --> 00:21:09,293 Speaker 3: people were surnames that sounded Asian, we're buying these houses, yeah, 466 00:21:09,373 --> 00:21:12,893 Speaker 3: which was highly embarrassing. I mean, have we turned a 467 00:21:12,893 --> 00:21:13,413 Speaker 3: corner on that? 468 00:21:13,493 --> 00:21:13,613 Speaker 8: Now? 469 00:21:13,653 --> 00:21:14,973 Speaker 3: What do you say our one hundred and eighty ten 470 00:21:15,013 --> 00:21:16,613 Speaker 3: eighty when it comes to foreigner is coming here to 471 00:21:16,613 --> 00:21:20,013 Speaker 3: buy houses overall? Are we a bit more welcoming and 472 00:21:20,293 --> 00:21:22,653 Speaker 3: are we changed our thinking that that can actually help 473 00:21:22,693 --> 00:21:25,973 Speaker 3: the country. Well, that that puts pay to this text 474 00:21:26,053 --> 00:21:29,293 Speaker 3: that said Tyler, you're a xenophobic. Proc there you go, 475 00:21:29,813 --> 00:21:31,693 Speaker 3: You're no, clearly yeah. 476 00:21:31,733 --> 00:21:34,493 Speaker 2: Hey, the other ways that people, you know, someone are saying, well, 477 00:21:35,413 --> 00:21:38,253 Speaker 2: you know, we've got this golden visa pathway buying house 478 00:21:38,293 --> 00:21:40,773 Speaker 2: for five million dollars, investing ten million dollars and five 479 00:21:40,773 --> 00:21:44,453 Speaker 2: million dollars whatever it is, how or other migrants getting 480 00:21:44,453 --> 00:21:46,973 Speaker 2: into the country that have no ability to get a 481 00:21:47,013 --> 00:21:50,093 Speaker 2: golden visa with There's like skilled worker pathways.

Anyway, 540 00:25:00,053 --> 00:25:04,613 Speaker 12: we're leading the five million dollar folks in and I 541 00:25:04,653 --> 00:25:07,653 Speaker 12: suppose you know that it's going to be good for 542 00:25:08,373 --> 00:25:15,413 Speaker 12: companies to maintain staff levels for construction. That's one thing 543 00:25:15,453 --> 00:25:23,773 Speaker 12: we desperately need is a somewhat Yeah, we need industry 544 00:25:23,813 --> 00:25:28,333 Speaker 12: to be working, and you know, unfortunately, you know, we've 545 00:25:28,373 --> 00:25:31,213 Speaker 12: had people come and go already, and it's kind of like, well, 546 00:25:31,333 --> 00:25:33,493 Speaker 12: let's keep them here. If we want to keep them here, 547 00:25:33,533 --> 00:25:35,973 Speaker 12: we need to build something because we've got to keep 548 00:25:36,013 --> 00:25:38,213 Speaker 12: them busy working. 549 00:25:38,493 --> 00:25:41,333 Speaker 2: I see you're saying, because of course they don't necessarily 550 00:25:41,333 --> 00:25:43,413 Speaker 2: buy a house. They might build a house. And if 551 00:25:43,453 --> 00:25:45,853 Speaker 2: you build a house, you know you're hiring a lot 552 00:25:45,853 --> 00:25:46,653 Speaker 2: of people to work. 553 00:25:46,453 --> 00:25:49,532 Speaker 3: On that house. So that's great for a lot of 554 00:25:49,533 --> 00:25:51,613 Speaker 3: our our construction industry. 555 00:25:52,533 --> 00:25:55,053 Speaker 12: Yeah, for sure, for sure. You know, I had my 556 00:25:55,253 --> 00:26:00,693 Speaker 12: fingers crossed that we will target the people we need 557 00:26:00,733 --> 00:26:06,253 Speaker 12: for essential work that we need doing. And I'm not 558 00:26:06,453 --> 00:26:15,853 Speaker 12: too optimistic about non pay paying individuals. So individuals who 559 00:26:16,093 --> 00:26:20,293 Speaker 12: may not be in fact employed by anybody, but just 560 00:26:20,413 --> 00:26:24,693 Speaker 12: by the virtue of having decent money and capital, they 561 00:26:24,773 --> 00:26:30,413 Speaker 12: can buy their position. That's okay. I'm not neither here 562 00:26:30,533 --> 00:26:35,413 Speaker 12: nor there. But let's not saturate the country with vape 563 00:26:35,413 --> 00:26:39,493 Speaker 12: shops and liquor stores and takeaway outlets, because those are 564 00:26:39,533 --> 00:26:44,173 Speaker 12: non essential. So I'm really hoping there's people that are 565 00:26:44,173 --> 00:26:49,533 Speaker 12: coming can do something in those areas of essential need perhaps. 566 00:26:50,453 --> 00:26:52,893 Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you for your thoughts, Josh. Yeah, And I 567 00:26:52,893 --> 00:26:54,333 Speaker 3: think a lot of people would feel that way that 568 00:26:54,373 --> 00:26:56,973 Speaker 3: if you are bringing in wealthy individuals and they're investing 569 00:26:57,013 --> 00:26:59,133 Speaker 3: that sort of money. But the flip side as well 570 00:26:59,253 --> 00:27:01,333 Speaker 3: is that you're hoping some of those individuals are bringing 571 00:27:01,373 --> 00:27:04,973 Speaker 3: their expertise. They might be very very successful business people. 572 00:27:05,013 --> 00:27:07,653 Speaker 3: Set up shop here, Hellelujah, we'll take some of that 573 00:27:07,693 --> 00:27:08,253 Speaker 3: sweet sweek. 574 00:27:08,613 --> 00:27:11,693 Speaker 2: So you've got the growth category part, you know, Venture 575 00:27:11,693 --> 00:27:15,373 Speaker 2: capital PROVADYCA direct investment in New Zealand companies. I mean 576 00:27:15,573 --> 00:27:17,293 Speaker 2: do they look at it and they go, what what 577 00:27:17,373 --> 00:27:18,813 Speaker 2: is what are you going to invest in? Well, I'm 578 00:27:18,813 --> 00:27:23,093 Speaker 2: going to open ten vape shops. Do they go, well, 579 00:27:23,093 --> 00:27:26,453 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's not really the investment we're 580 00:27:26,493 --> 00:27:28,933 Speaker 2: looking for. Yeah, because they're you know that they have 581 00:27:28,973 --> 00:27:30,853 Speaker 2: to go through a bunch of stuff as well, on 582 00:27:30,893 --> 00:27:32,853 Speaker 2: top on top top of all of it, and there's 583 00:27:32,933 --> 00:27:36,133 Speaker 2: there's there's restrictions on where they're investment is. 584 00:27:36,493 --> 00:27:37,333 Speaker 3: You know, they can't. 585 00:27:37,133 --> 00:27:41,253 Speaker 2: Buy strategically important property and stuff, so there's quite a 586 00:27:41,253 --> 00:27:42,253 Speaker 2: few restrictions around it. 587 00:27:42,413 --> 00:27:44,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, so what do you say, oh, e one hundred 588 00:27:44,053 --> 00:27:45,933 Speaker 3: and eighty ten eighty is the number to call. Nine 589 00:27:45,933 --> 00:27:49,653 Speaker 3: to nine two is the text, Joseph. 590 00:27:49,773 --> 00:27:53,693 Speaker 5: No, I want to say that unless an investor comes 591 00:27:53,773 --> 00:27:56,453 Speaker 5: in with some new ideas, a new way to do something, 592 00:27:56,533 --> 00:27:59,973 Speaker 5: or something to do something we're not doing, then all 593 00:28:00,053 --> 00:28:02,773 Speaker 5: you're doing is we're pouring money into the same production 594 00:28:02,893 --> 00:28:06,133 Speaker 5: and the same access, and that is inflationary. Not that 595 00:28:06,613 --> 00:28:08,933 Speaker 5: And I impose that's sort of the investment. 596 00:28:09,613 --> 00:28:12,052 Speaker 2: But you know you could look at it, can't you, Joseph, 597 00:28:12,093 --> 00:28:15,413 Speaker 2: that that's just an export dollar. So if five million 598 00:28:15,413 --> 00:28:17,933 Speaker 2: dollars comes from overseas, that's the same as selling five 599 00:28:17,973 --> 00:28:21,292 Speaker 2: million dollars worth of kiwi fruit, right, So that's how 600 00:28:21,333 --> 00:28:22,533 Speaker 2: that army works. 601 00:28:23,093 --> 00:28:23,133 Speaker 3: No. 602 00:28:23,453 --> 00:28:26,373 Speaker 5: No, because if you're looking about about finding investments, they 603 00:28:26,453 --> 00:28:29,133 Speaker 5: will want a profit, money to bake. They then take 604 00:28:29,213 --> 00:28:32,253 Speaker 5: back overseas and they will only be here. They said 605 00:28:32,333 --> 00:28:34,493 Speaker 5: they can get more money out and they poured into it. 606 00:28:34,973 --> 00:28:36,613 Speaker 5: That would be a net drain on the country. 607 00:28:37,453 --> 00:28:39,293 Speaker 2: Well, if they're moving here and they've built a five 608 00:28:39,333 --> 00:28:42,013 Speaker 2: million dollar house, I'm in the argument would be that 609 00:28:42,093 --> 00:28:44,613 Speaker 2: they are going to live here and set up with 610 00:28:44,653 --> 00:28:47,133 Speaker 2: their family here, kids are going to school that that 611 00:28:47,213 --> 00:28:49,813 Speaker 2: kind of thing, and then you would hope it probably 612 00:28:49,853 --> 00:28:53,013 Speaker 2: there'll probably be situations where that plays out, as you say, 613 00:28:53,013 --> 00:28:54,653 Speaker 2: but you would hope the majority would be making a 614 00:28:54,693 --> 00:28:55,093 Speaker 2: life here. 615 00:28:55,173 --> 00:28:55,333 Speaker 3: Right. 616 00:28:56,253 --> 00:28:57,973 Speaker 5: Yeah, but you have a lott that there's a lot 617 00:28:57,973 --> 00:29:01,613 Speaker 5: of investments category that you read out. Nothing in that 618 00:29:01,733 --> 00:29:03,773 Speaker 5: was going to add ford action. You're just looking about 619 00:29:03,813 --> 00:29:05,853 Speaker 5: putting money to existing investments. 620 00:29:06,413 --> 00:29:09,933 Speaker 3: Well, I mean venture call that venture capital. 621 00:29:09,933 --> 00:29:11,333 Speaker 2: If you if you, if you, if you come in 622 00:29:11,333 --> 00:29:14,493 Speaker 2: and you're investing money venture capital money in New Zealand, 623 00:29:14,493 --> 00:29:18,453 Speaker 2: then you might accelerate the development of a company that 624 00:29:18,493 --> 00:29:22,573 Speaker 2: becomes fantastic in New Zealand. Right, venture capital surely where 625 00:29:22,573 --> 00:29:27,853 Speaker 2: men were low on venture capital in this country, but that. 626 00:29:28,093 --> 00:29:31,013 Speaker 5: Foreign investment wasn't restricted to venture capital. 627 00:29:31,613 --> 00:29:33,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just saying that's an example them. 628 00:29:33,693 --> 00:29:37,493 Speaker 2: Yes, so venture capital, private equity, direct investments into New 629 00:29:37,573 --> 00:29:42,813 Speaker 2: Zealand companies, manage growth funds, listed shares, corporate bonds, property developments, 630 00:29:43,333 --> 00:29:45,693 Speaker 2: philanthropic investments and managed funds. 631 00:29:46,653 --> 00:29:49,693 Speaker 5: It's none of that. It's out will improve production. 632 00:29:51,453 --> 00:29:53,693 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, look, I hear what you're saying about 633 00:29:53,693 --> 00:29:56,493 Speaker 3: the risk of capital flight, but I I tend to 634 00:29:56,533 --> 00:29:58,973 Speaker 3: agree that you'd hope most of those people, that's always 635 00:29:59,013 --> 00:30:00,693 Speaker 3: going to be a risk that they bring their ten 636 00:30:00,733 --> 00:30:04,213 Speaker 3: million dollars in for a safe investment and they see 637 00:30:04,213 --> 00:30:05,893 Speaker 3: at the time that they have to for that visa, 638 00:30:05,933 --> 00:30:08,773 Speaker 3: then they take their money out and take it back 639 00:30:08,813 --> 00:30:11,933 Speaker 3: to to where they came from. But see, I think 640 00:30:11,933 --> 00:30:14,853 Speaker 3: there's still I mean, even if you get say sixty 641 00:30:14,893 --> 00:30:16,853 Speaker 3: percent of those people coming in on that visa, who 642 00:30:16,933 --> 00:30:19,173 Speaker 3: do set up shop here and decide New Zealand as 643 00:30:19,173 --> 00:30:21,573 Speaker 3: a wonderful place, of course it is, and then start 644 00:30:21,573 --> 00:30:25,133 Speaker 3: building businesses, that's still a worthwhile investment, isn't it, Joseph? 645 00:30:25,653 --> 00:30:26,293 Speaker 3: That would be. 646 00:30:26,493 --> 00:30:30,133 Speaker 5: But you're talking about a hope you don't know, And 647 00:30:30,213 --> 00:30:32,013 Speaker 5: I think what you need to do is have a 648 00:30:32,053 --> 00:30:34,773 Speaker 5: look what did they do and where did that come from? 649 00:30:35,053 --> 00:30:39,133 Speaker 5: Have they been involved in some sort of juventus beforehand? Yes, 650 00:30:39,373 --> 00:30:42,293 Speaker 5: sure they will be bad yere, but did you see 651 00:30:42,293 --> 00:30:45,573 Speaker 5: what they're doing is beating money crowns. 652 00:30:46,133 --> 00:30:48,453 Speaker 2: Well, part of the twenty seven, four hundred and fifty 653 00:30:48,453 --> 00:30:52,933 Speaker 2: dollars processing fee does involve a full investigation of their 654 00:30:53,013 --> 00:30:56,373 Speaker 2: lives and they have to pass the good character test. 655 00:30:57,213 --> 00:30:58,733 Speaker 2: What do you think about I mean, I don't exactly 656 00:30:58,813 --> 00:31:01,773 Speaker 2: know what a good character test sounds pretty vague to me. 657 00:31:02,933 --> 00:31:05,573 Speaker 5: Actually, I nor do I I don't want to.

That's a good question to ask. 665 00:31:31,253 --> 00:31:34,973 Speaker 5: What was the avestigations tale and a good character? 666 00:31:36,133 --> 00:31:37,613 Speaker 3: Would we pass a good character test? 667 00:31:37,853 --> 00:31:38,093 Speaker 14: Can we? 668 00:31:39,533 --> 00:31:41,973 Speaker 2: You've had a bad Yeah, support me and make way 669 00:31:42,053 --> 00:31:45,893 Speaker 2: for someone with ten million dollars bad character.

Now, Anthony, very good afternoon to you. 689 00:32:38,213 --> 00:32:39,093 Speaker 15: Good afternoon to you. 690 00:32:39,213 --> 00:32:40,493 Speaker 3: How are you very good? 691 00:32:40,533 --> 00:32:43,453 Speaker 2: What do you think about this five million dollar threshold? 692 00:32:43,453 --> 00:32:46,173 Speaker 2: Do you think that's about right? Should be less, should 693 00:32:46,173 --> 00:32:46,493 Speaker 2: be more? 694 00:32:47,773 --> 00:32:50,693 Speaker 15: I think it could be a bit less. The reason 695 00:32:50,733 --> 00:32:53,333 Speaker 15: for that is that we'd like to see the money 696 00:32:53,333 --> 00:32:55,853 Speaker 15: spreads around New Zealand's that's coming into the country, and 697 00:32:55,853 --> 00:33:00,333 Speaker 15: there's very significant amountcoming and I think places like the 698 00:33:00,373 --> 00:33:05,493 Speaker 15: Hawks Bay or Northland or the Wire Rapper or christ Church, 699 00:33:06,293 --> 00:33:08,573 Speaker 15: the flow is not going there at the moment, is 700 00:33:08,573 --> 00:33:13,653 Speaker 15: going mainly to QUEENSWND and you're we're seeing a lot 701 00:33:13,653 --> 00:33:16,533 Speaker 15: of money going there and that's the main interest for 702 00:33:16,573 --> 00:33:18,573 Speaker 15: the investors and see in the second place would be 703 00:33:18,573 --> 00:33:20,733 Speaker 15: Auckland and be nice if the rest of the country 704 00:33:21,493 --> 00:33:22,853 Speaker 15: could be involved with that as well. 705 00:33:23,533 --> 00:33:28,053 Speaker 3: So we would you prefer if it was regionally marked. 706 00:33:28,133 --> 00:33:31,893 Speaker 2: So Auckland stays at a high rate, Queens down around 707 00:33:31,933 --> 00:33:36,253 Speaker 2: there stays at a high rate. But Northland, as you say, 708 00:33:36,373 --> 00:33:40,293 Speaker 2: is like three million or something, so it's regionally adjusted. 709 00:33:41,813 --> 00:33:45,973 Speaker 15: I totally agree with it. It's like in Northland they 710 00:33:45,973 --> 00:33:48,773 Speaker 15: could use, you know, an area where that could use 711 00:33:48,813 --> 00:33:52,333 Speaker 15: a lot of employment which this wealth would bring. And 712 00:33:52,493 --> 00:33:56,253 Speaker 15: that if they can't live there because they kind of 713 00:33:56,253 --> 00:33:59,373 Speaker 15: buy a house at five million and there's only very 714 00:33:59,493 --> 00:34:04,173 Speaker 15: limited stock in Northland at that price range, well they're 715 00:34:04,213 --> 00:34:07,013 Speaker 15: going to go to Queens sound right. In Northland it's 716 00:34:07,133 --> 00:34:09,893 Speaker 15: just as beautiful as what Queen's it's only a lot 717 00:34:09,893 --> 00:34:13,373 Speaker 15: more affordable. So getting that wealth to go into different 718 00:34:13,453 --> 00:34:15,733 Speaker 15: areas in New Zealand would benefit every New Zealander. 719 00:34:16,693 --> 00:34:19,973 Speaker 2: What about though, within Auckland, say you take Auckland, you've 720 00:34:19,973 --> 00:34:23,173 Speaker 2: got areas like Remuerra or understand there's one thousand plus 721 00:34:23,173 --> 00:34:26,933 Speaker 2: properties that are worth over five million dollars, but West 722 00:34:27,013 --> 00:34:30,693 Speaker 2: Aalkland's very different. South Auckland's very different. Would you zero 723 00:34:30,773 --> 00:34:32,613 Speaker 2: in that much that you suburb. 724 00:34:32,733 --> 00:34:35,573 Speaker 15: No, I think there's enough choice in Auckland and the 725 00:34:35,573 --> 00:34:38,133 Speaker 15: Maine suburbs, and I think that that sort of wealth 726 00:34:38,173 --> 00:34:42,933 Speaker 15: will be looking at the main suburbs anyway. Yeah, it 727 00:34:42,973 --> 00:34:46,732 Speaker 15: will be very I think technically very difficult to sort 728 00:34:46,773 --> 00:34:49,253 Speaker 15: of say if you're in this part of Auckland or 729 00:34:49,253 --> 00:34:52,613 Speaker 15: in that part of Auckland, and why that makes it hard. 730 00:34:52,933 --> 00:34:55,533 Speaker 15: I think it should be kept simple. People know, you 731 00:34:55,573 --> 00:34:57,493 Speaker 15: want to go to Auckland's five million, if you go 732 00:34:57,493 --> 00:35:00,453 Speaker 15: into Northland it's three million or something like that. I 733 00:35:00,493 --> 00:35:04,573 Speaker 15: think would make it make it really really attractive for 734 00:35:05,653 --> 00:35:06,373 Speaker 15: those regions. 735 00:35:06,613 --> 00:35:09,772 Speaker 3: The government Anthony predicts a around one hundred, one hundred 736 00:35:09,813 --> 00:35:12,333 Speaker 3: and fifty will take up this Golden visa in the 737 00:35:12,373 --> 00:35:14,533 Speaker 3: first year. Do you think those numbers are about right? 738 00:35:16,733 --> 00:35:16,933 Speaker 16: Yep. 739 00:35:17,173 --> 00:35:20,373 Speaker 15: The response I'm getting and I'm talking to straight to 740 00:35:20,493 --> 00:35:26,173 Speaker 15: offices in Hamburg and Germany, Amsterdam, Switzerland, in Geneva and 741 00:35:26,253 --> 00:35:31,653 Speaker 15: those are our offices Monaco, those places I'm getting direct feedback. 742 00:35:31,693 --> 00:35:37,573 Speaker 15: I'm dealing with family officers over there, and the Welt 743 00:35:37,693 --> 00:35:42,973 Speaker 15: texts coming into Holland where investors are in. Those in 744 00:35:43,013 --> 00:35:45,613 Speaker 15: that country are looking to move out as fast as 745 00:35:45,653 --> 00:35:49,893 Speaker 15: they Can Germany, similar things are happening. They are absolutely 746 00:35:50,253 --> 00:35:52,773 Speaker 15: for security reasons as well, looking to move out. So 747 00:35:52,813 --> 00:35:55,773 Speaker 15: there's a big exodus in those countries, not only to 748 00:35:55,853 --> 00:35:59,533 Speaker 15: New Zealand but also to other safe habits. But New 749 00:35:59,613 --> 00:36:02,652 Speaker 15: Zealand is pretty much in the picture there. So I'm 750 00:36:02,733 --> 00:36:05,453 Speaker 15: pretty confident that we can get those numbers and even 751 00:36:05,493 --> 00:36:09,493 Speaker 15: higher into New Zealand and dealing person with a large 752 00:36:09,493 --> 00:36:12,613 Speaker 15: amount of wealth coming out of those countries. Also out 753 00:36:12,653 --> 00:36:13,533 Speaker 15: of the United States. 754 00:36:14,213 --> 00:36:17,333 Speaker 2: Are they looking at bolt holes so buying a property 755 00:36:17,413 --> 00:36:20,732 Speaker 2: in Queenstown if the worst happens, get on a jet 756 00:36:20,773 --> 00:36:23,053 Speaker 2: and get over here. Or are they looking to move 757 00:36:23,173 --> 00:36:26,933 Speaker 2: families here and start a life here, Anthony, In your experience. 758 00:36:26,613 --> 00:36:30,893 Speaker 15: I think it's more about moving a life here. It's 759 00:36:30,893 --> 00:36:35,292 Speaker 15: about being involved in New Zealand society. There was what's 760 00:36:35,333 --> 00:36:40,013 Speaker 15: happening in Europe. They've got big immigration problems, they've got 761 00:36:40,013 --> 00:36:43,493 Speaker 15: big security problems, and they've got tax problems over there. 762 00:36:43,893 --> 00:36:48,093 Speaker 15: In New Zealand looks like paradise to them, and that's 763 00:36:48,093 --> 00:36:49,693 Speaker 15: the reason why they want to come here, and I 764 00:36:49,693 --> 00:36:50,172 Speaker 15: think we can. 765 00:36:50,093 --> 00:36:53,453 Speaker 3: All benefit from that. Ye really interesting, Anthony, Thank you 766 00:36:53,693 --> 00:36:56,293 Speaker 3: very much for your time. Appreciate your insights and we'll 767 00:36:56,333 --> 00:36:58,973 Speaker 3: catch up again soon. That is Anthony Mowson Gough with 768 00:36:59,133 --> 00:37:02,133 Speaker 3: Forbes Global real Estate beg very shortly. It is eight 769 00:37:02,173 --> 00:37:02,493 Speaker 3: to two. 770 00:37:03,693 --> 00:37:08,453 Speaker 1: Mattis Taylor Adams taking your calls on eight hundred eighty's 771 00:37:08,493 --> 00:37:12,093 Speaker 1: Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons News DOGSB. 772 00:37:13,293 --> 00:37:16,853 Speaker 3: NEWB It is five to two. A few texts coming 773 00:37:16,853 --> 00:37:17,853 Speaker 3: through on nine two nine two. 774 00:37:18,333 --> 00:37:20,453 Speaker 2: The TEXTUS says, hey guys, yes, I do have a 775 00:37:20,493 --> 00:37:22,533 Speaker 2: problem with reducing the house price from five million to 776 00:37:22,533 --> 00:37:24,613 Speaker 2: two million, as there is a shed load of houses 777 00:37:24,653 --> 00:37:26,652 Speaker 2: in Auckland that costs two million, and I'm a national voter. 778 00:37:26,893 --> 00:37:28,772 Speaker 2: I think three million to three point five million would 779 00:37:28,773 --> 00:37:31,293 Speaker 2: be more appropriate amount as a starting point for Auckland, 780 00:37:31,293 --> 00:37:33,893 Speaker 2: at least chairs for that Andrew, I currently work in 781 00:37:33,933 --> 00:37:36,172 Speaker 2: real estate industry and I think a five million dollar 782 00:37:36,253 --> 00:37:38,533 Speaker 2: buyer is probably not going to actively work in New 783 00:37:38,613 --> 00:37:40,333 Speaker 2: Zealand or need to work in New Zealand. I think 784 00:37:40,373 --> 00:37:43,453 Speaker 2: someone from two million might get people investing and working 785 00:37:43,453 --> 00:37:46,093 Speaker 2: and generate tax for the government. The biggest risk I 786 00:37:46,133 --> 00:37:49,292 Speaker 2: see is that they start buying income producing assets, which 787 00:37:49,333 --> 00:37:52,253 Speaker 2: have already happened in a few industries. For example, kiwi 788 00:37:52,253 --> 00:37:56,373 Speaker 2: fruit orchards. There are some rules about agriculture in these. 789 00:37:57,213 --> 00:37:59,693 Speaker 2: Can't believe how many people are so thick when it 790 00:37:59,693 --> 00:38:03,493 Speaker 2: comes to overseas investment. This country needs this to grow 791 00:38:03,653 --> 00:38:06,813 Speaker 2: and keep the country building. Yeah, that's on the person 792 00:38:06,853 --> 00:38:09,173 Speaker 2: that text that we should make sure we've got zero 793 00:38:09,253 --> 00:38:11,813 Speaker 2: child poverty before we bring anyone into the country because 794 00:38:11,813 --> 00:38:13,253 Speaker 2: we can't afford to pay for the people we have. 795 00:38:13,373 --> 00:38:15,973 Speaker 2: Not understanding that the idea of this is to try 796 00:38:16,013 --> 00:38:19,573 Speaker 2: and grow the economy such we can support more people 797 00:38:19,613 --> 00:38:23,773 Speaker 2: and we have no less people living in hardship. That's 798 00:38:23,813 --> 00:38:27,692 Speaker 2: the idea. This person says, all very well, but where 799 00:38:27,693 --> 00:38:31,252 Speaker 2: are they going to crap our sewers don't work? 800 00:38:32,253 --> 00:38:34,573 Speaker 3: Yes, good point. Yeah, it's a good point. Stay built 801 00:38:34,573 --> 00:38:36,253 Speaker 3: a toilet as well in the run zero system. 802 00:38:36,333 --> 00:38:39,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, Wellington, it's not great, but more money coming into 803 00:38:39,653 --> 00:38:42,573 Speaker 2: the country means more money, so hopefully fix some of 804 00:38:42,613 --> 00:38:43,973 Speaker 2: our infrastructure as well. 805 00:38:44,053 --> 00:38:46,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, good discussion. Thank you very much to everyone who called. 806 00:38:46,933 --> 00:38:49,893 Speaker 3: Add text comes into effect tomorrow, so we will see 807 00:38:49,893 --> 00:38:52,573 Speaker 3: how that. Unfoult's coming up. After two o'clock, we want 808 00:38:52,613 --> 00:38:56,212 Speaker 3: to talk about solar.

But in the meantime, 827 00:39:51,373 --> 00:39:53,933 Speaker 3: we want to discuss solar across New Zealand. A grown 828 00:39:54,013 --> 00:39:56,573 Speaker 3: number of homeowners of finding that there's solar and battery 829 00:39:56,613 --> 00:39:59,253 Speaker 3: systems aren't saving as much money as expected. With some 830 00:39:59,333 --> 00:40:03,733 Speaker 3: systems even drawing electricity from the grid on bright sunny days. 831 00:40:03,813 --> 00:40:07,573 Speaker 3: Couple of cases included Greg Rimmer Hollyman near Nelson, whose 832 00:40:07,573 --> 00:40:11,373 Speaker 3: systems show only seven to eight killer what's been imported 833 00:40:11,413 --> 00:40:13,973 Speaker 3: despite running on solar, and Trish Beard and christ Church 834 00:40:14,013 --> 00:40:18,173 Speaker 3: who's thirty thousand dollars twenty eight panels system repeatedly failed 835 00:40:18,213 --> 00:40:22,093 Speaker 3: to supply power at all the Utility is Complaints Commissioner. 836 00:40:22,133 --> 00:40:24,453 Speaker 3: I didn't know this guy existed, but he's reported a 837 00:40:24,773 --> 00:40:29,013 Speaker 3: ninety seven percent increase in solar related complaints over the 838 00:40:29,013 --> 00:40:32,613 Speaker 3: past year. So is solar that's cracked. 839 00:40:32,413 --> 00:40:32,693 Speaker 6: Up to be? 840 00:40:33,213 --> 00:40:33,373 Speaker 3: Yeah? 841 00:40:33,413 --> 00:40:37,973 Speaker 2: I know a few people that you know where they 842 00:40:38,013 --> 00:40:40,773 Speaker 2: installed solar. They kind of had this attitude that they 843 00:40:40,773 --> 00:40:43,533 Speaker 2: were better than me, smugly talking about how it all worked, 844 00:40:43,573 --> 00:40:45,653 Speaker 2: and it's plugged in and showing the app and showing 845 00:40:45,693 --> 00:40:48,173 Speaker 2: the power going this way and that, and then slowly 846 00:40:48,213 --> 00:40:49,053 Speaker 2: over time. 847 00:40:50,613 --> 00:40:52,573 Speaker 3: They fall out of love with it. 848 00:40:53,373 --> 00:40:55,453 Speaker 2: This is what I've noticed, And this is anecdotal, so 849 00:40:55,493 --> 00:40:57,173 Speaker 2: it can't be across the country, and these are just 850 00:40:57,213 --> 00:41:00,613 Speaker 2: some examples of it. Yes, but it is a major investment. 851 00:41:02,133 --> 00:41:07,773 Speaker 2: It's sometimes surely pays off incredibly right, Yeah, Yeah, but 852 00:41:08,813 --> 00:41:11,293 Speaker 2: more and more, we're hearing these stories of it not 853 00:41:11,373 --> 00:41:13,013 Speaker 2: working out exactly as people thought. 854 00:41:12,853 --> 00:41:14,853 Speaker 3: Because there's a lot of information out there and it 855 00:41:14,853 --> 00:41:16,933 Speaker 3: seems to be Sola has been talked up at length 856 00:41:16,973 --> 00:41:18,533 Speaker 3: over the past couple of years, and a lot of 857 00:41:18,573 --> 00:41:20,373 Speaker 3: these claims saying you've got to get sold if you don't, 858 00:41:20,413 --> 00:41:22,413 Speaker 3: if you don't have solar, you're an idiot, and you 859 00:41:22,453 --> 00:41:25,172 Speaker 3: throw money down the drain. But more and more if 860 00:41:25,173 --> 00:41:27,533 Speaker 3: you're spending thirty thousand dollars on a solar system, and 861 00:41:27,533 --> 00:41:29,933 Speaker 3: then you hear about the panels that start falling apart 862 00:41:29,973 --> 00:41:33,093 Speaker 3: after twenty years, the lichen, the lichen, and then the 863 00:41:33,533 --> 00:41:36,172 Speaker 3: batteries as well, that you've got to buy on top 864 00:41:36,213 --> 00:41:39,773 Speaker 3: of the panels. Yeah, and they don't last forever. Yeah. 865 00:41:39,813 --> 00:41:42,133 Speaker 2: I mean when you first get a solar system, what 866 00:41:42,293 --> 00:41:46,053 Speaker 2: really goes up is what the solar system really generates 867 00:41:46,173 --> 00:41:50,053 Speaker 2: is powerful sense of smugness and the powerful need to 868 00:41:50,053 --> 00:41:53,453 Speaker 2: bring it up at and every conversation that you're involved in. 869 00:41:53,693 --> 00:41:55,812 Speaker 2: The powers that for a while. But then I find 870 00:41:55,853 --> 00:41:59,453 Speaker 2: those levels of smugness tend to drift off over a while, 871 00:41:59,853 --> 00:42:03,453 Speaker 2: about at about the same rate as the battery starts 872 00:42:03,533 --> 00:42:06,093 Speaker 2: not generating and holding power as long as you'd. 873 00:42:05,933 --> 00:42:08,253 Speaker 3: Hope starts to erode pretty fast. Yeah, but what are 874 00:42:08,293 --> 00:42:08,692 Speaker 3: you you say? 875 00:42:08,693 --> 00:42:11,453 Speaker 2: Initial smugness levels are through the roof, so if you 876 00:42:11,453 --> 00:42:13,373 Speaker 2: could track those on the app, yeah, I'll just be 877 00:42:13,413 --> 00:42:15,813 Speaker 2: peaking the whole time. You're putting smugness back into the grid. 878 00:42:17,293 --> 00:42:19,453 Speaker 3: Oh, eight one hundred eighty ten eighty is the number 879 00:42:19,453 --> 00:42:21,493 Speaker 3: to call. So if you've got solar or you've looked 880 00:42:21,493 --> 00:42:23,933 Speaker 3: at it, did you decide that maybe it was too 881 00:42:23,973 --> 00:42:26,213 Speaker 3: pricey and it wasn't worth it even for that boost 882 00:42:26,213 --> 00:42:28,973 Speaker 3: and smugness? And nine two ninety two is the text? 883 00:42:29,053 --> 00:42:30,773 Speaker 3: Or is it working a treat for you?

Janet, Welcome to the show. Hi, Hello, 916 00:43:56,053 --> 00:43:58,933 Speaker 3: nice to chat with you. So you've installed solar six 917 00:43:59,013 --> 00:44:01,453 Speaker 3: years ago, Yes, yes, we. 918 00:44:01,533 --> 00:44:06,013 Speaker 14: Did, and I think we've got ten panels. There's just 919 00:44:06,173 --> 00:44:08,293 Speaker 14: two adults now. They were three adults from the house. 920 00:44:08,933 --> 00:44:11,053 Speaker 14: But from the start we were saving at least one 921 00:44:11,093 --> 00:44:15,652 Speaker 14: hundred dollars a month. And we don't have a battery though, 922 00:44:16,493 --> 00:44:19,813 Speaker 14: so they just do a buyback for all the any 923 00:44:19,853 --> 00:44:22,573 Speaker 14: that we generate and don't use, and that's just double 924 00:44:22,693 --> 00:44:26,333 Speaker 14: their rate. Their buy back rate is just doubled as 925 00:44:26,373 --> 00:44:28,293 Speaker 14: of this last month, I think. So I haven't had 926 00:44:28,293 --> 00:44:32,213 Speaker 14: a bill to show me what that is, but yeah, 927 00:44:32,333 --> 00:44:34,373 Speaker 14: I mean, yeah, sure.

I mean, six years ago, 953 00:45:42,093 --> 00:45:45,493 Speaker 14: we were paying probably about one fifty one sixty a 954 00:45:45,533 --> 00:45:49,573 Speaker 14: month at least in summer, probably a bit more in winter, 955 00:45:49,693 --> 00:45:54,053 Speaker 14: about two fifty two sixty.

I think Matt's initial commentary is correct. 978 00:46:53,853 --> 00:46:55,773 Speaker 13: You do get a bit of test in the first 979 00:46:55,933 --> 00:46:59,973 Speaker 13: period looking at things, and you know, we were we 980 00:47:00,053 --> 00:47:04,133 Speaker 13: decided to buy good quality equipment, and I think that's 981 00:47:04,213 --> 00:47:07,453 Speaker 13: part of a issue because I'm genuinely surprised that their 982 00:47:07,653 --> 00:47:10,493 Speaker 13: issues because that's pretty regulated. You've got to have an 983 00:47:10,493 --> 00:47:13,813 Speaker 13: independent person who's got to come in and sign off 984 00:47:13,853 --> 00:47:18,692 Speaker 13: on the hardware before it gets activated on the grid. 985 00:47:19,093 --> 00:47:22,053 Speaker 13: So I'm a little surprised that there have been problems. 986 00:47:22,653 --> 00:47:26,212 Speaker 13: And generally over the four year period, over the whole time, 987 00:47:26,253 --> 00:47:29,413 Speaker 13: it's about sixty two percent of our energy needs have 988 00:47:29,453 --> 00:47:30,733 Speaker 13: been taken out by solar. 989 00:47:31,493 --> 00:47:36,333 Speaker 3: And you're christ Church christ Church. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you 990 00:47:36,413 --> 00:47:39,453 Speaker 3: get a decent amount of sunning. Yeah, you know, regular 991 00:47:39,453 --> 00:47:41,692 Speaker 3: clear Skys and christ Yeah yeah. 992 00:47:41,693 --> 00:47:44,453 Speaker 13: But trust me, I've got a household full of young 993 00:47:44,533 --> 00:47:48,493 Speaker 13: nuts and they love energy and using every form of 994 00:47:48,533 --> 00:47:53,773 Speaker 13: electricity module known to man. So so I'm pretty comfortable. 995 00:47:53,933 --> 00:47:56,853 Speaker 2: So would you say that the key to successful solar 996 00:47:57,213 --> 00:48:01,773 Speaker 2: is a sensible investment at the start and research and 997 00:48:01,813 --> 00:48:04,733 Speaker 2: make sure that you're getting you know, the best quality equipment. 998 00:48:04,813 --> 00:48:05,573 Speaker 3: Is that the secret? 999 00:48:05,813 --> 00:48:08,692 Speaker 13: Yeah? Yeah, Look, I think that's a really good and now, Gene, 1000 00:48:08,733 --> 00:48:12,453 Speaker 13: I think you've got to have a battery. Ultimately, what 1001 00:48:12,853 --> 00:48:15,133 Speaker 13: we got very good at doing was is that we 1002 00:48:15,613 --> 00:48:18,453 Speaker 13: did everything we needed to do with high energy consumption 1003 00:48:18,573 --> 00:48:20,733 Speaker 13: during the day and the house would run on the 1004 00:48:20,773 --> 00:48:21,653 Speaker 13: battery overnight. 1005 00:48:23,213 --> 00:48:25,413 Speaker 3: Well, it sounds like it's working out pretty well for you, Graham, 1006 00:48:25,453 --> 00:48:27,533 Speaker 3: So I take it a winter because it's good good 1007 00:48:27,573 --> 00:48:29,453 Speaker 3: in summer with the sun.

We're talking about solar setups. 1190 00:57:45,613 --> 00:57:46,613 Speaker 2: How is it working for you? 1191 00:57:46,693 --> 00:57:48,973 Speaker 3: This is after a report that many people seem to 1192 00:57:48,973 --> 00:57:51,653 Speaker 3: be struggling with how efficient their solar setups are. Are 1193 00:57:51,693 --> 00:57:53,413 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighteen eighties at number to coour, I 1194 00:57:53,453 --> 00:57:53,973 Speaker 3: was talking. 1195 00:57:53,733 --> 00:57:56,933 Speaker 2: About overcast days and how they still produce quite a 1196 00:57:56,973 --> 00:58:00,613 Speaker 2: lot of light. I might have been over estimating the 1197 00:58:00,653 --> 00:58:03,453 Speaker 2: amount of light that comes out on an overcast day. 1198 00:58:03,453 --> 00:58:04,413 Speaker 3: Right, So. 1199 00:58:05,973 --> 00:58:09,693 Speaker 2: On a bright day, you're looking at one thousand, two 1200 00:58:09,733 --> 00:58:13,693 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty thousand lux, which is lumen's per square meter, right, 1201 00:58:14,613 --> 00:58:19,653 Speaker 2: and then that goes right down between that about five 1202 00:58:19,733 --> 00:58:23,253 Speaker 2: thousand on an overcast day, right, So. 1203 00:58:23,373 --> 00:58:24,693 Speaker 3: That is so much less. 1204 00:58:24,973 --> 00:58:27,573 Speaker 2: But you know a bulb in the house is only 1205 00:58:27,893 --> 00:58:30,253 Speaker 2: letting off sixteen hundred lumens, So even. 1206 00:58:30,093 --> 00:58:37,413 Speaker 3: An overcast day is brighter effectively than sitting inside under 1207 00:58:37,413 --> 00:58:39,733 Speaker 3: a light bulb. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, but. 1208 00:58:39,973 --> 00:58:42,053 Speaker 2: That's a huge difference, isn't it For a solo If 1209 00:58:42,053 --> 00:58:45,053 Speaker 2: you're down from one hundred thousand to five thousand. 1210 00:58:44,653 --> 00:58:46,693 Speaker 3: That's why you need that battery. But some of those 1211 00:58:46,693 --> 00:58:48,533 Speaker 3: batteries are at twenty k on they oh eight, one 1212 00:58:48,573 --> 00:58:51,333 Speaker 3: hundred and eighty ten eighty is that number to call? 1213 00:58:51,373 --> 00:58:54,853 Speaker 3: Nine two niney two is the text as well, Steve, 1214 00:58:55,813 --> 00:58:58,893 Speaker 3: how's your soul agoing mate going? 1215 00:58:58,933 --> 00:59:02,333 Speaker 19: Great, going great, we've had it. We put it in 1216 00:59:02,693 --> 00:59:08,253 Speaker 19: November twenty three and since then we put in sixteen panels, 1217 00:59:08,773 --> 00:59:10,773 Speaker 19: the Q cell panels, which are the best you can 1218 00:59:10,813 --> 00:59:13,373 Speaker 19: get in the world, and we put in a Tesla 1219 00:59:13,413 --> 00:59:19,533 Speaker 19: battery and Pronius Inverta which is Austrian built. And since 1220 00:59:19,573 --> 00:59:22,773 Speaker 19: then we've paid one five dollars thirty power bills. 1221 00:59:23,573 --> 00:59:28,133 Speaker 3: Wow. Wow, since one five dollars thirty. 1222 00:59:27,173 --> 00:59:27,893 Speaker 5: Yep, yep. 1223 00:59:28,093 --> 00:59:30,813 Speaker 19: So there was a guy just before he was talking 1224 00:59:30,853 --> 00:59:33,453 Speaker 19: about you built up so in summer you built up 1225 00:59:33,493 --> 00:59:35,773 Speaker 19: a credit. We get it. We get eighteen cents per 1226 00:59:35,853 --> 00:59:40,453 Speaker 19: keller watt from our power company. So every month we 1227 00:59:40,533 --> 00:59:42,773 Speaker 19: get a power ball and it's got it shows what 1228 00:59:42,853 --> 00:59:46,333 Speaker 19: we've used of the of their power of mains power, 1229 00:59:47,013 --> 00:59:51,213 Speaker 19: and then it shows the credit and then you know, 1230 00:59:51,293 --> 00:59:56,213 Speaker 19: so basically over the sunny months we don't pay anything, 1231 00:59:56,213 --> 00:59:58,053 Speaker 19: which is building up credit, and then over those three 1232 00:59:58,133 --> 01:00:01,333 Speaker 19: four months of winter we've normally built up enough credit 1233 01:00:01,733 --> 01:00:04,853 Speaker 19: over the summer months that we don't pay any So 1234 01:00:04,893 --> 01:00:06,973 Speaker 19: it was just last winter was you know, was a 1235 01:00:06,973 --> 01:00:09,093 Speaker 19: bit a bit longer. So we you ended up paying 1236 01:00:09,093 --> 01:00:10,493 Speaker 19: one five dollars thirty power ball. 1237 01:00:10,653 --> 01:00:11,893 Speaker 2: What was your initial investment? 1238 01:00:12,133 --> 01:00:17,173 Speaker 19: Did you say, Steve thirty four brand. But the thing is, 1239 01:00:17,173 --> 01:00:21,173 Speaker 19: all the banks do these green, green green loans, so 1240 01:00:21,213 --> 01:00:22,933 Speaker 19: you can buy an EV or you can put in 1241 01:00:22,973 --> 01:00:25,853 Speaker 19: solo or whatever, and it depends on the bank. But 1242 01:00:25,933 --> 01:00:28,813 Speaker 19: we were with ASP so we could get a three 1243 01:00:28,933 --> 01:00:31,933 Speaker 19: year green loans at one percent interest. 1244 01:00:33,093 --> 01:00:36,533 Speaker 2: It seems to me that you know we're doing you know, 1245 01:00:36,813 --> 01:00:39,773 Speaker 2: this chat is off the back of a article where 1246 01:00:39,813 --> 01:00:42,093 Speaker 2: there was a lot of people winging about their. 1247 01:00:42,173 --> 01:00:42,933 Speaker 3: Solo set up. 1248 01:00:43,133 --> 01:00:45,533 Speaker 2: It seems like if you're in the Hawk's Bay, judging 1249 01:00:45,573 --> 01:00:48,653 Speaker 2: by their texts and call us, a lot of people 1250 01:00:48,653 --> 01:00:50,053 Speaker 2: in the Hawks Bay are pretty happy with this solo 1251 01:00:50,093 --> 01:00:50,933 Speaker 2: set pretty well. 1252 01:00:50,933 --> 01:00:51,573 Speaker 3: What the way that is? 1253 01:00:51,933 --> 01:00:54,173 Speaker 19: Well, well, we get a lot of sun here.

I just get peace. 1308 01:03:22,173 --> 01:03:26,293 Speaker 3: You Paul buggers, You've got no idea that clings? How 1309 01:03:26,333 --> 01:03:28,493 Speaker 3: does it do it? Yeah? What a being?

You got to go real coustic though, 1311 01:03:31,453 --> 01:03:31,733 Speaker 3: don't you? 1312 01:03:31,853 --> 01:03:33,533 Speaker 2: Well no at this point because it was too close, 1313 01:03:33,573 --> 01:03:35,373 Speaker 2: because you can spray and it will die over time. 1314 01:03:35,413 --> 01:03:36,733 Speaker 3: But I needed to paint immediately. 1315 01:03:36,773 --> 01:03:40,053 Speaker 2: I was impatient, so I went out with you know 1316 01:03:40,573 --> 01:03:44,493 Speaker 2: various you know, high pressure hose, you know, water blasted it, 1317 01:03:44,533 --> 01:03:45,973 Speaker 2: but also got it with the wire brush. 1318 01:03:46,573 --> 01:03:48,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, you poor bugger. That's hard work. That's hard. Yeah, 1319 01:03:49,053 --> 01:03:52,493 Speaker 3: Gay Richard, you're in the White cuttle and you love 1320 01:03:52,533 --> 01:03:53,213 Speaker 3: your solar. 1321 01:03:54,493 --> 01:03:54,733 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1322 01:03:54,773 --> 01:03:57,293 Speaker 10: Well, I've got a solar system just being finished tomorrow, 1323 01:03:58,213 --> 01:04:01,373 Speaker 10: and we've got another solar system that we're bet up 1324 01:04:01,413 --> 01:04:05,213 Speaker 10: running for a few months. Well, we go completely off grid, 1325 01:04:05,933 --> 01:04:10,933 Speaker 10: we don't stay connected to the power. So twenty panels, sorry, 1326 01:04:10,973 --> 01:04:14,613 Speaker 10: forty four panels, So that's twenty kilo wants of power 1327 01:04:14,613 --> 01:04:20,773 Speaker 10: can be produced in the sunlight. I've got thirty seven 1328 01:04:20,853 --> 01:04:24,933 Speaker 10: KBA of batteries in one place and the other one's 1329 01:04:24,933 --> 01:04:29,853 Speaker 10: got FIRSTY got a three phase and verter which is 1330 01:04:29,973 --> 01:04:34,013 Speaker 10: now what's becoming more than normal. Most houses are single phase, 1331 01:04:34,053 --> 01:04:36,213 Speaker 10: but our property is three faces are three phase and 1332 01:04:36,333 --> 01:04:40,933 Speaker 10: vert and yeah, there's a big gangs and it goes 1333 01:04:40,973 --> 01:04:44,093 Speaker 10: to the power cable that goes to county's power or 1334 01:04:44,333 --> 01:04:47,613 Speaker 10: because it's power, because we don't need it, you. 1335 01:04:47,693 --> 01:04:50,373 Speaker 2: Put next through it metaphorically or literally. 1336 01:04:51,453 --> 01:04:54,373 Speaker 5: Almost literally a good feeling. 1337 01:04:55,813 --> 01:04:58,413 Speaker 10: So we were we had power bills up to eight 1338 01:04:58,493 --> 01:04:59,373 Speaker 10: hundred dollars a month. 1339 01:05:01,413 --> 01:05:01,853 Speaker 3: That's high. 1340 01:05:02,853 --> 01:05:05,653 Speaker 10: Ye don't have that power bill anymore if I wanted 1341 01:05:05,653 --> 01:05:08,293 Speaker 10: to play it safe, and I always say to people, 1342 01:05:08,813 --> 01:05:11,533 Speaker 10: if you do this, play safe from the beginning. You 1343 01:05:11,693 --> 01:05:14,373 Speaker 10: can be connected to the grid through your power company 1344 01:05:14,373 --> 01:05:19,773 Speaker 10: for about forty dollars a month. If you've got what 1345 01:05:19,853 --> 01:05:22,533 Speaker 10: they call a controlling gateway, which is what we have 1346 01:05:22,733 --> 01:05:26,453 Speaker 10: on the system. It will only pull power if it 1347 01:05:26,533 --> 01:05:29,813 Speaker 10: needs to, so it doesn't put power. It cost you 1348 01:05:29,853 --> 01:05:32,613 Speaker 10: forty dollars a month to have your insurance policy have 1349 01:05:32,693 --> 01:05:35,653 Speaker 10: being connected to the power. So eight hundred dollars a 1350 01:05:35,653 --> 01:05:39,173 Speaker 10: month to forty dollars a month, that's a really good saving. 1351 01:05:40,013 --> 01:05:43,813 Speaker 10: We went the next step and disconnected and it doesn't 1352 01:05:43,813 --> 01:05:48,293 Speaker 10: cost you a fortune. And there's systems out there that 1353 01:05:48,453 --> 01:05:51,453 Speaker 10: are proven to work and work and work and not 1354 01:05:51,573 --> 01:05:55,773 Speaker 10: give you any trouble. So our whole we're don't say 1355 01:05:55,893 --> 01:06:00,173 Speaker 10: we're off grid. We're two houses, three sheds, water for 1356 01:06:00,333 --> 01:06:08,173 Speaker 10: its sparpool, an office. Right, we're off grid, right, and 1357 01:06:09,853 --> 01:06:11,773 Speaker 10: it will take me less than four years to pay 1358 01:06:11,813 --> 01:06:18,093 Speaker 10: for it in the savings I make. And to give 1359 01:06:18,093 --> 01:06:21,973 Speaker 10: you an example, the batteries have a twenty seven year 1360 01:06:22,093 --> 01:06:24,013 Speaker 10: life cycle guarantee. 1361 01:06:25,453 --> 01:06:27,893 Speaker 3: It's pretty impressive. I mean, if you're spending eight hundred 1362 01:06:27,893 --> 01:06:30,573 Speaker 3: bucks a month on power and you're not spending that anymore. 1363 01:06:31,333 --> 01:06:33,373 Speaker 3: Not too many people are running that sort of operation, though. 1364 01:06:33,413 --> 01:06:38,213 Speaker 3: Do you get one of the green loans Richard, No, No. 1365 01:06:38,173 --> 01:06:40,213 Speaker 5: Don't care, right to. 1366 01:06:40,253 --> 01:06:41,973 Speaker 10: Tell you, right, it wasn't a lot of money if 1367 01:06:41,973 --> 01:06:44,253 Speaker 10: you if you go to the right group, the right people, 1368 01:06:48,013 --> 01:06:51,693 Speaker 10: it'll be thirty seven for this one, and the other 1369 01:06:51,773 --> 01:06:54,733 Speaker 10: one was about forty two. But it's got more batteries, 1370 01:06:55,533 --> 01:06:59,773 Speaker 10: so that will take lessen four years to pay back. 1371 01:07:00,173 --> 01:07:04,053 Speaker 10: If I pay it back to myself at the rate 1372 01:07:04,133 --> 01:07:06,973 Speaker 10: of what the power is custom right now, well I 1373 01:07:07,013 --> 01:07:10,133 Speaker 10: could have that paid off in eight years and haven't 1374 01:07:10,173 --> 01:07:15,253 Speaker 10: got to play money. But get the right system, talk 1375 01:07:15,333 --> 01:07:20,133 Speaker 10: to the right people. Get batteries. If you're going to 1376 01:07:20,133 --> 01:07:23,613 Speaker 10: feedback into the grid, I think that's a great scam 1377 01:07:24,293 --> 01:07:27,053 Speaker 10: because first of all, the power company says, well, you 1378 01:07:27,093 --> 01:07:29,413 Speaker 10: need a different meter, so they're going to charge you 1379 01:07:29,453 --> 01:07:32,133 Speaker 10: for another meter. Then they say, oh, you've got to 1380 01:07:32,133 --> 01:07:35,333 Speaker 10: be connected. Even if you're feeding power to us, you 1381 01:07:35,373 --> 01:07:39,333 Speaker 10: still have to pay the connection fee, which could be 1382 01:07:39,493 --> 01:07:42,693 Speaker 10: up to one hundred and sixty dollars a month. And 1383 01:07:42,733 --> 01:07:46,733 Speaker 10: then if you want to get a decent payback. So 1384 01:07:46,813 --> 01:07:49,293 Speaker 10: at the moment where I am, it's forty cents a 1385 01:07:49,373 --> 01:07:53,013 Speaker 10: kilo what to buy, it's six cents a kill of 1386 01:07:53,093 --> 01:07:56,493 Speaker 10: what to sell back to the I can get more, 1387 01:07:57,053 --> 01:07:59,573 Speaker 10: but I'm going to go into a five year contract 1388 01:08:00,413 --> 01:08:03,053 Speaker 10: and I can only sell back five kilowatts at a time. 1389 01:08:03,693 --> 01:08:07,493 Speaker 10: So it's very difficult for me just to pay just 1390 01:08:07,493 --> 01:08:10,533 Speaker 10: to get enough money back to cover my connection three. 1391 01:08:11,293 --> 01:08:13,813 Speaker 10: So why would I do that? I just I'm making 1392 01:08:13,853 --> 01:08:17,532 Speaker 10: the power. It's my power is when I want. 1393 01:08:17,412 --> 01:08:17,893 Speaker 13: To use it. 1394 01:08:17,973 --> 01:08:18,932 Speaker 3: Good on your richards. 1395 01:08:19,133 --> 01:08:21,333 Speaker 2: Get the X out, Yeah, cut that line to the 1396 01:08:22,492 --> 01:08:26,452 Speaker 2: solar system's going off. Crankin eight hundred bucks a month 1397 01:08:26,492 --> 01:08:31,613 Speaker 2: worth of juice and smugs. Smugness levels through the Great investments. 1398 01:08:31,933 --> 01:08:33,973 Speaker 3: It is seventeen to three taking your calls on O 1399 01:08:34,013 --> 01:08:36,173 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty ten eighty has your solar system 1400 01:08:36,253 --> 01:08:37,412 Speaker 3: going back very shortly. 1401 01:08:38,333 --> 01:08:41,253 Speaker 1: Matt and Tayler with you as your afternoon rolls on 1402 01:08:41,612 --> 01:08:44,492 Speaker 1: Matt Heathan Taylor Adams Afternoons with Skoda. 1403 01:08:44,612 --> 01:08:47,093 Speaker 6: Can you crack the code?

I haven't I'm not actively installing now, 1442 01:10:30,933 --> 01:10:34,253 Speaker 20: but I've spent about about twelve forteen years doing it. 1443 01:10:35,652 --> 01:10:39,812 Speaker 20: And yeah there's there's some This is really I question 1444 01:10:40,452 --> 01:10:41,092 Speaker 20: the articles. 1445 01:10:41,133 --> 01:10:42,253 Speaker 5: I questioned who paid for it? 1446 01:10:42,572 --> 01:10:44,893 Speaker 3: A lot of people are. 1447 01:10:47,133 --> 01:10:50,333 Speaker 20: Because yeah, no, the I I've never seen a I've 1448 01:10:50,333 --> 01:10:53,172 Speaker 20: never seen a system draw draw power from the grid. 1449 01:10:53,732 --> 01:10:57,932 Speaker 20: If it's been correctly installed, use it here, and very 1450 01:10:58,053 --> 01:11:01,093 Speaker 20: very rare circumstances. If you had a battery system that 1451 01:11:01,253 --> 01:11:04,492 Speaker 20: was set to have a minimum charge level and that 1452 01:11:04,893 --> 01:11:06,093 Speaker 20: it had gone flat. 1453 01:11:06,452 --> 01:11:08,293 Speaker 3: Then then I know my own inverter. 1454 01:11:08,612 --> 01:11:10,452 Speaker 20: If it does go completely flat, say we've had a 1455 01:11:10,452 --> 01:11:13,012 Speaker 20: big power cut, it'll draw itself back up to twenty 1456 01:11:13,053 --> 01:11:16,532 Speaker 20: five percent to recharge the batteries. But that's the only 1457 01:11:16,572 --> 01:11:18,412 Speaker 20: circumstances I can think of that you you'd full from 1458 01:11:18,452 --> 01:11:18,972 Speaker 20: the grid. 1459 01:11:20,812 --> 01:11:22,652 Speaker 5: But yeah, it's a couple of a couple of really good. 1460 01:11:22,452 --> 01:11:26,973 Speaker 20: Calls around around the battery life as well. I know 1461 01:11:27,013 --> 01:11:30,772 Speaker 20: the ones I've got installed at my place. They're warranted 1462 01:11:30,772 --> 01:11:34,972 Speaker 20: for twenty years, same technology as the BYD cars use. 1463 01:11:35,732 --> 01:11:37,973 Speaker 2: Now, mark What is you know as an installer? What 1464 01:11:38,013 --> 01:11:40,333 Speaker 2: are the most important things for people that are setting 1465 01:11:40,372 --> 01:11:42,933 Speaker 2: up a solar system? What's the most important thing for 1466 01:11:42,973 --> 01:11:44,892 Speaker 2: them to remember and look out for? 1467 01:11:47,933 --> 01:11:50,333 Speaker 20: Oh, there's lots of there's lots of the most important 1468 01:11:51,093 --> 01:11:55,093 Speaker 20: one you get what you paid for. But also it's 1469 01:11:55,612 --> 01:11:58,852 Speaker 20: horses for courses. I mean, if you were a say, 1470 01:11:58,853 --> 01:12:02,052 Speaker 20: if you're a cafe owner and you wanted to reduce 1471 01:12:02,093 --> 01:12:04,492 Speaker 20: your power bills and you only really use draw power 1472 01:12:04,532 --> 01:12:07,253 Speaker 20: during the day, like a simple on green system would 1473 01:12:07,253 --> 01:12:10,772 Speaker 20: be absolutely perfect for If you're a householder and use 1474 01:12:10,812 --> 01:12:13,732 Speaker 20: all your power in the evening, then batteries are awesome 1475 01:12:13,812 --> 01:12:17,732 Speaker 20: because you can shift the power used to the nighttime. 1476 01:12:17,812 --> 01:12:20,893 Speaker 20: You can if you can still export excess energy. 1477 01:12:20,652 --> 01:12:21,133 Speaker 6: To the grid. 1478 01:12:21,213 --> 01:12:23,732 Speaker 20: But it is, like I say, it's horses for courses. 1479 01:12:25,253 --> 01:12:26,572 Speaker 20: Is teach you're going to use your power? 1480 01:12:26,812 --> 01:12:29,532 Speaker 3: Yeah? Is a tea getting getting high level now? Mark? 1481 01:12:29,612 --> 01:12:31,372 Speaker 3: Or you know? My impression is that the teach was 1482 01:12:31,412 --> 01:12:34,013 Speaker 3: pretty good teen years ago, and it's it's got a 1483 01:12:34,053 --> 01:12:36,253 Speaker 3: little bit better but still kind of the same. Am 1484 01:12:36,333 --> 01:12:37,532 Speaker 3: I wrong in my assumption there? 1485 01:12:39,612 --> 01:12:42,133 Speaker 20: It's getting a bit easier to install, a bit more 1486 01:12:42,173 --> 01:12:47,293 Speaker 20: plug and play. There's from an installer's point of view, 1487 01:12:48,572 --> 01:12:51,012 Speaker 20: from a user's point of view, the feedback you're getting, 1488 01:12:51,492 --> 01:12:53,652 Speaker 20: the connectivity of the inverters, it is getting a lot better. 1489 01:12:54,452 --> 01:12:56,772 Speaker 20: So I can't speak to all of them. I've got 1490 01:12:56,812 --> 01:13:01,133 Speaker 20: a Chinese one installed actually at my place, which I 1491 01:13:01,372 --> 01:13:03,213 Speaker 20: absolutely love. But you know, there's an app on the 1492 01:13:03,293 --> 01:13:05,092 Speaker 20: app on the phone, it'll tell you what the battery 1493 01:13:05,093 --> 01:13:07,492 Speaker 20: state of charges. It'll tell you how much you're using 1494 01:13:07,532 --> 01:13:08,692 Speaker 20: from the grid and how much. 1495 01:13:08,532 --> 01:13:09,572 Speaker 5: You're exporting to the grid. 1496 01:13:11,732 --> 01:13:14,093 Speaker 20: But yeah, the technology is getting better, but it's just 1497 01:13:14,333 --> 01:13:16,452 Speaker 20: minor efficiency games now more than anything. 1498 01:13:17,572 --> 01:13:19,972 Speaker 2: Mark, thank you very much for your phone call. Really 1499 01:13:20,053 --> 01:13:23,933 Speaker 2: nice to get your expertise.

And it turns out the article we were 1618 01:18:23,293 --> 01:18:26,372 Speaker 2: reading was when you read to the bottom of these 1619 01:18:26,372 --> 01:18:29,133 Speaker 2: problems with solar, it all came back to use it era. 1620 01:18:29,293 --> 01:18:31,132 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a few week experts right at the bottom 1621 01:18:31,133 --> 01:18:33,293 Speaker 3: of them say solar is great. These people just said 1622 01:18:33,293 --> 01:18:34,412 Speaker 3: the wrong chords. 1623 01:18:34,173 --> 01:18:36,092 Speaker 2: That they were like people. It was like an article 1624 01:18:36,093 --> 01:18:37,692 Speaker 2: on people saying their shoes were falling off and you 1625 01:18:37,732 --> 01:18:39,412 Speaker 2: find out that they weren't tying their laces, you know 1626 01:18:39,452 --> 01:18:42,372 Speaker 2: what I mean. It was that it was that kind 1627 01:18:42,412 --> 01:18:45,492 Speaker 2: of thing. But I think there was a certain I 1628 01:18:45,532 --> 01:18:49,852 Speaker 2: don't know, attitude to let's say, the wider electrification thing 1629 01:18:51,293 --> 01:18:53,012 Speaker 2: that that kind of annoysed some people. 1630 01:18:53,053 --> 01:18:53,813 Speaker 3: The smugness. 1631 01:18:53,973 --> 01:18:59,133 Speaker 2: And I was reading this article in the Thought Crimes substack, 1632 01:18:59,333 --> 01:19:02,133 Speaker 2: which is written by Annie O'Brien, and it was about 1633 01:19:02,452 --> 01:19:06,932 Speaker 2: Chris Hipkins as appearance in this he got an interview 1634 01:19:06,933 --> 01:19:10,412 Speaker 2: in this magazine call what is the magazine called, I 1635 01:19:10,412 --> 01:19:13,692 Speaker 2: can't remember, It's called rewiring ATIRA was the name of 1636 01:19:13,732 --> 01:19:16,293 Speaker 2: the online publication, I think it is. They were talking 1637 01:19:16,333 --> 01:19:20,412 Speaker 2: to Chriss Hipkins about his you know, electrification set up, 1638 01:19:20,652 --> 01:19:24,572 Speaker 2: his green credentials, and he described electric vehicles as guilt 1639 01:19:24,572 --> 01:19:29,652 Speaker 2: free and electric electrification as largely a mental hurdle people 1640 01:19:29,692 --> 01:19:32,492 Speaker 2: need to get over. So electrification is largely a mental 1641 01:19:32,772 --> 01:19:37,173 Speaker 2: hurdle people need to get over. And so in thought 1642 01:19:37,173 --> 01:19:40,053 Speaker 2: crimes on his substack and he O'Brien went through what 1643 01:19:40,933 --> 01:19:43,612 Speaker 2: the cost of going green for cross Hipkins actually was, 1644 01:19:44,093 --> 01:19:47,772 Speaker 2: and she goes through electric vehicle, mid range electric vehicle, 1645 01:19:47,812 --> 01:19:52,852 Speaker 2: about sixty thousands. He talks about an induction induction cook 1646 01:19:52,973 --> 01:19:55,812 Speaker 2: top which is between you know, fifteen hundred and four 1647 01:19:55,893 --> 01:19:58,612 Speaker 2: thousand dollars, talk about the solar panels set up, which 1648 01:19:58,652 --> 01:20:01,572 Speaker 2: is you know, you know, around what we've been talking about, 1649 01:20:01,572 --> 01:20:06,973 Speaker 2: thirty K thirty five to fifty K setup, and so, 1650 01:20:07,772 --> 01:20:11,532 Speaker 2: you know, as she puts it, Crysipins is correct that 1651 01:20:11,572 --> 01:20:14,852 Speaker 2: solar and electrification can deliver long term savings under the 1652 01:20:14,933 --> 01:20:17,692 Speaker 2: right conditions. But the right conditions in this case include 1653 01:20:17,732 --> 01:20:19,772 Speaker 2: being paid more than three hundred thousand dollars per year 1654 01:20:20,173 --> 01:20:22,253 Speaker 2: owning his own home and beach home, and having the 1655 01:20:22,293 --> 01:20:25,732 Speaker 2: taxpayers pay for a good chunk of his transition. Considering this, 1656 01:20:25,812 --> 01:20:28,532 Speaker 2: it is unbelievably rich of him to put resistance to 1657 01:20:28,692 --> 01:20:31,932 Speaker 2: transitioning to electric down to some kind of psychological clinging 1658 01:20:31,973 --> 01:20:32,492 Speaker 2: to the past. 1659 01:20:32,652 --> 01:20:34,812 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, so. 1660 01:20:35,013 --> 01:20:37,492 Speaker 2: And also there's a suggestion that you know, and when 1661 01:20:37,532 --> 01:20:43,772 Speaker 2: he's talking about electrification mainly being a mental hurdle that 1662 01:20:43,812 --> 01:20:46,532 Speaker 2: people get over, she's pointing out it's likely that the 1663 01:20:46,612 --> 01:20:52,213 Speaker 2: Hyundai Kona EV is a taxpayer funded minister vehicle she 1664 01:20:52,253 --> 01:20:53,212 Speaker 2: can charge at Parliament. 1665 01:20:53,213 --> 01:20:54,892 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, there's a lot of mental hurdles 1666 01:20:54,893 --> 01:20:56,492 Speaker 3: I've got in my life that one hundred K would 1667 01:20:56,532 --> 01:21:01,372 Speaker 3: solve pretty pretty fast. I think, very good. Yeah, that's 1668 01:21:01,372 --> 01:21:02,012 Speaker 3: a great article. 1669 01:21:02,173 --> 01:21:05,452 Speaker 2: Getting a roll X is largely a mental hurdle. And 1670 01:21:05,572 --> 01:21:06,293 Speaker 2: about thirty k. 1671 01:21:06,772 --> 01:21:10,173 Speaker 3: What was the name of that substick, thought crimes, Thought crimes. 1672 01:21:10,213 --> 01:21:13,492 Speaker 3: I'll go give it a read. Right, let's get into 1673 01:21:13,612 --> 01:21:15,532 Speaker 3: this discussion. This is going to be a doozy. So 1674 01:21:15,893 --> 01:21:20,972 Speaker 3: vizectomy reversals they are doctors have seen a noticeable increase 1675 01:21:21,013 --> 01:21:25,972 Speaker 3: in request for the viseectomy reversals since twenty twenty one. Auckland, GP, 1676 01:21:26,093 --> 01:21:28,972 Speaker 3: spoken to for this article, says that they are seeing 1677 01:21:29,013 --> 01:21:32,293 Speaker 3: many more men come through his offices each day requesting 1678 01:21:32,333 --> 01:21:37,052 Speaker 3: that particular surgery. Often those who paused family plans during 1679 01:21:37,093 --> 01:21:40,693 Speaker 3: stressful even early parenting years are now seeking the procedure, 1680 01:21:40,732 --> 01:21:44,612 Speaker 3: which reconnects the plumbing, so to speak. It is done 1681 01:21:44,732 --> 01:21:48,012 Speaker 3: after the original vsectomy, and while the simpler clinic procedure 1682 01:21:48,053 --> 01:21:51,973 Speaker 3: costs around four grand, more involved hospital microsurgery can go 1683 01:21:52,173 --> 01:21:55,333 Speaker 3: upwards of twelve thousand dollars, but the success rate is 1684 01:21:55,452 --> 01:21:58,612 Speaker 3: relatively high, about ninety percent. If you've had the snip, 1685 01:21:58,772 --> 01:22:03,172 Speaker 3: then you want to reconnect the plumbing. Ninety percent success 1686 01:22:03,253 --> 01:22:06,092 Speaker 3: rate isn't too bad. No, it's fantastic. 1687 01:22:07,652 --> 01:22:10,492 Speaker 2: I mean they must fool people full of you know, 1688 01:22:10,772 --> 01:22:13,293 Speaker 2: make it less concerning to make the decision. 1689 01:22:13,372 --> 01:22:15,412 Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder if it goes down that success rate 1690 01:22:15,452 --> 01:22:18,452 Speaker 3: if you're someone like Tony Coxshawn Great New Zealander, former 1691 01:22:18,492 --> 01:22:21,212 Speaker 3: mayor of Graymouth. But as we mentioned, he's. 1692 01:22:21,612 --> 01:22:25,812 Speaker 2: Yeah, Greytown near Yeah more than just Graymouth, the Greytown 1693 01:22:25,893 --> 01:22:30,213 Speaker 2: mere he gray district here. Sorry he I think it's four. 1694 01:22:30,893 --> 01:22:35,213 Speaker 2: So he had a vasectomy yep. And then what are 1695 01:22:35,253 --> 01:22:38,692 Speaker 2: we calling a reverse A reverseversal yep, then another versect me, 1696 01:22:39,452 --> 01:22:43,533 Speaker 2: then another reversal, then another versect ME, and then another reversal. 1697 01:22:44,572 --> 01:22:49,933 Speaker 3: That's me. So that seven potentially seven procedures. Yeah, but 1698 01:22:50,213 --> 01:22:52,852 Speaker 3: you know, on and off four times. I believe that 1699 01:22:52,973 --> 01:22:55,333 Speaker 3: is a brave man. I could be I could plus 1700 01:22:55,372 --> 01:22:58,052 Speaker 3: and minus one versect to me. Yeah. We did eatually 1701 01:22:58,093 --> 01:22:59,572 Speaker 3: have a chat to him. He didn't want to come 1702 01:22:59,572 --> 01:23:01,452 Speaker 3: on here at the time because his wife had enough 1703 01:23:01,452 --> 01:23:04,053 Speaker 3: of all this vasectomy chats. But he did confirm and 1704 01:23:04,093 --> 01:23:06,492 Speaker 3: he said it was God pretty well. But he's out 1705 01:23:06,492 --> 01:23:08,293 Speaker 3: of the game now. But can you hear from you 1706 01:23:08,372 --> 01:23:11,892 Speaker 3: if you've had act to me a vasectomy reversal, what 1707 01:23:12,133 --> 01:23:14,932 Speaker 3: was the circumstances that led to that? Wasn't an easy 1708 01:23:15,013 --> 01:23:17,612 Speaker 3: decision to make. I mean, clearly it's a decision to 1709 01:23:17,652 --> 01:23:20,213 Speaker 3: have more children. I mean, is that after you've formed 1710 01:23:20,213 --> 01:23:22,692 Speaker 3: a new relationship with perhaps somebody a bit younger, that 1711 01:23:22,732 --> 01:23:24,852 Speaker 3: you decided yep, you know what, I do want to 1712 01:23:24,853 --> 01:23:27,132 Speaker 3: have another couple of kids, or it was so important 1713 01:23:27,133 --> 01:23:29,372 Speaker 3: to them that you decided out their procedure. 1714 01:23:29,372 --> 01:23:31,092 Speaker 2: You know what changes in your life? So at one point, 1715 01:23:31,093 --> 01:23:33,253 Speaker 2: you're so certain you don't want to have more kids 1716 01:23:33,612 --> 01:23:37,173 Speaker 2: that you have a visectomy, so absolutely certain, to the 1717 01:23:37,213 --> 01:23:41,173 Speaker 2: point where you'll have a procedure and a intimate and 1718 01:23:41,652 --> 01:23:46,253 Speaker 2: I'm going to say vaguely terrifying procedure.

I'm going to pay a 1721 01:23:52,812 --> 01:23:55,572 Speaker 2: lot more because of VASSEECTI ME reversal is a lot 1722 01:23:55,572 --> 01:23:58,572 Speaker 2: more expensive than a varseectomy. So you're like, now, I'm 1723 01:23:58,612 --> 01:24:01,293 Speaker 2: just like, lay out the cash. I'm back in the game. Yeah, 1724 01:24:01,293 --> 01:24:02,692 Speaker 2: what happens?

So they 1773 01:26:20,612 --> 01:26:23,412 Speaker 16: so they essentially the two holes get lined up with 1774 01:26:23,492 --> 01:26:26,173 Speaker 16: it's a bit of fishing line, and then they slip together, 1775 01:26:26,253 --> 01:26:29,012 Speaker 16: so the holes line up. But what they what happens 1776 01:26:29,013 --> 01:26:30,852 Speaker 16: at the end of the fishing line gets poked through 1777 01:26:30,893 --> 01:26:34,253 Speaker 16: your skin and then tied externally, so it looks like 1778 01:26:34,253 --> 01:26:36,772 Speaker 16: you've got the world's worth pierce piercing for a week. 1779 01:26:38,013 --> 01:26:38,852 Speaker 13: This nylon is. 1780 01:26:42,253 --> 01:26:45,133 Speaker 16: Now one side went really well, but the other side, 1781 01:26:45,173 --> 01:26:46,933 Speaker 16: so we say, blew up to the size of a 1782 01:26:46,973 --> 01:26:49,612 Speaker 16: good size of lemons. Wow ahead, a bit of a 1783 01:26:49,692 --> 01:26:55,933 Speaker 16: bleed and then that nylon got really tight at this 1784 01:26:56,093 --> 01:26:57,932 Speaker 16: all got done in Auckland, and I live in Wellington, 1785 01:26:58,732 --> 01:27:01,333 Speaker 16: and it was the weekend and I couldn't get hold 1786 01:27:01,333 --> 01:27:02,933 Speaker 16: of a doctor, so I wasn't quite sure what to do. 1787 01:27:03,013 --> 01:27:05,213 Speaker 16: SIGN ended up cutting the nylon to relieve the pressure, 1788 01:27:05,253 --> 01:27:08,532 Speaker 16: so we say, and sort of tying another. But oh 1789 01:27:09,372 --> 01:27:13,293 Speaker 16: a little bit of a mess. But then a week flatter, 1790 01:27:13,333 --> 01:27:14,972 Speaker 16: you've got to go see your local nurse to get 1791 01:27:15,013 --> 01:27:18,932 Speaker 16: that nylon pulled out. And the nurse hadn't done it before, 1792 01:27:18,973 --> 01:27:20,692 Speaker 16: and she was way more nervous than I was. 1793 01:27:23,772 --> 01:27:27,532 Speaker 3: I ended up doing it myself in her presence. 1794 01:27:27,093 --> 01:27:27,852 Speaker 13: While she was there. 1795 01:27:28,293 --> 01:27:31,053 Speaker 16: She was in the in the in the clinic, but 1796 01:27:31,612 --> 01:27:33,692 Speaker 16: she she was quite young and she just wasn't going 1797 01:27:33,732 --> 01:27:34,053 Speaker 16: to do it. 1798 01:27:34,093 --> 01:27:35,532 Speaker 8: So I ended up doing myself. 1799 01:27:35,572 --> 01:27:36,652 Speaker 3: And you can understand her. 1800 01:27:38,333 --> 01:27:40,892 Speaker 14: Yeah, you know, it didn't hurt. 1801 01:27:40,732 --> 01:27:42,452 Speaker 16: But it was like, really, like that shouldn't be. 1802 01:27:42,452 --> 01:27:47,812 Speaker 2: Fighting when when they're greg when they're lining up the surgeon, 1803 01:27:49,173 --> 01:27:50,973 Speaker 2: I think the most famous one in Auckland's called the 1804 01:27:51,013 --> 01:27:55,812 Speaker 2: best man. But when when they're lining it up, is 1805 01:27:55,812 --> 01:27:58,333 Speaker 2: that is that is that with? Is that with hands 1806 01:27:58,452 --> 01:28:00,732 Speaker 2: or is it some kind of device or is robotic 1807 01:28:00,853 --> 01:28:03,133 Speaker 2: because it's shaky. Shaky hands would not be good in 1808 01:28:03,133 --> 01:28:04,892 Speaker 2: that situation, you know, because. 1809 01:28:04,652 --> 01:28:07,293 Speaker 16: The nylon's gone into a hole on one side and 1810 01:28:07,933 --> 01:28:10,572 Speaker 16: then up through the wall of the tube, and then 1811 01:28:10,612 --> 01:28:15,012 Speaker 16: the other ends of the nylon's going on the other tube. 1812 01:28:15,412 --> 01:28:18,372 Speaker 16: So so the holes are lined up by the nylon, right, 1813 01:28:18,452 --> 01:28:19,012 Speaker 16: that makes sense. 1814 01:28:19,253 --> 01:28:20,612 Speaker 2: But you're still going to get You're still going to 1815 01:28:20,652 --> 01:28:23,092 Speaker 2: get You're still going to get the nylon through the noodle, right. 1816 01:28:24,253 --> 01:28:29,173 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's steps on the side slash in here. 1817 01:28:29,293 --> 01:28:31,572 Speaker 2: You've got to foul hock the noodle and. 1818 01:28:31,652 --> 01:28:34,652 Speaker 16: And that, and that's essentially that if they missed the holes, 1819 01:28:34,652 --> 01:28:37,173 Speaker 16: and it's what you end up having problems. So but 1820 01:28:37,213 --> 01:28:39,053 Speaker 16: like your longs are shortly a little yours four now, 1821 01:28:39,133 --> 01:28:42,372 Speaker 16: so congrable, well initially, but yeah, I wouldn't want to 1822 01:28:42,412 --> 01:28:42,772 Speaker 16: do it again. 1823 01:28:42,812 --> 01:28:46,293 Speaker 5: And that guys like doing it four times. 1824 01:28:45,812 --> 01:28:48,972 Speaker 2: Like most of my schooling. I didn't listen in six education. 1825 01:28:49,253 --> 01:28:50,933 Speaker 2: So how many of these noodles do do? 1826 01:28:51,013 --> 01:28:54,213 Speaker 3: We hear going two or two one on each side. 1827 01:28:54,372 --> 01:28:56,812 Speaker 2: So it's just the one microscopic noodle that's doing all 1828 01:28:56,812 --> 01:28:59,372 Speaker 2: the hard work on each side. 1829 01:28:59,933 --> 01:29:02,052 Speaker 16: The noodles not microscopic, but the whole. 1830 01:29:01,933 --> 01:29:03,572 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, right, yeah, but you know what I mean. 1831 01:29:03,612 --> 01:29:09,612 Speaker 16: But yes, yes, that's such a sens from the. 1832 01:29:07,452 --> 01:29:11,692 Speaker 2: So there's a major, major problem on either side, then 1833 01:29:11,933 --> 01:29:14,213 Speaker 2: then that's game over. So you have to be with 1834 01:29:14,253 --> 01:29:17,093 Speaker 2: the you know, with the reversal that have to be 1835 01:29:17,412 --> 01:29:20,452 Speaker 2: very careful because imagine it's. 1836 01:29:20,293 --> 01:29:23,173 Speaker 16: Apparently it's really flexible and quite long, so they could 1837 01:29:23,213 --> 01:29:23,572 Speaker 16: just cut it. 1838 01:29:23,893 --> 01:29:26,852 Speaker 2: Did they tell you why? What did they tell you why? 1839 01:29:26,933 --> 01:29:31,892 Speaker 2: You're lefty already became lemon sized?

I had, yes, 2014 01:37:46,692 --> 01:37:48,732 Speaker 3: and tell us the circumstances. 2015 01:37:49,652 --> 01:37:56,333 Speaker 8: Well, it was twenty eight years ago when I had 2016 01:37:56,372 --> 01:38:02,972 Speaker 8: my reversal, so it was relatively uncommon back there. Yeah, 2017 01:38:03,013 --> 01:38:09,132 Speaker 8: my first marriage, my head three children, and the first 2018 01:38:09,173 --> 01:38:12,412 Speaker 8: wife then demanded I got to besect me, which I 2019 01:38:12,452 --> 01:38:15,492 Speaker 8: happy to do because I had three kids. It was 2020 01:38:15,532 --> 01:38:18,852 Speaker 8: all about saving your marriage. Though I ended up on 2021 01:38:18,893 --> 01:38:21,973 Speaker 8: the couch within about a month of having the reversal, 2022 01:38:22,452 --> 01:38:24,452 Speaker 8: and then about a month on the couch, I got 2023 01:38:24,452 --> 01:38:28,053 Speaker 8: the boot. So I was noted and it was a 2024 01:38:28,173 --> 01:38:31,972 Speaker 8: waste of time. So anyway, you carry on with life. 2025 01:38:32,053 --> 01:38:36,253 Speaker 8: And shortly after that I met my now significant other 2026 01:38:37,173 --> 01:38:41,372 Speaker 8: and she was unaware. While you're courting, you don't talk 2027 01:38:41,412 --> 01:38:44,732 Speaker 8: about things like that. And when we got more serious, 2028 01:38:44,853 --> 01:38:48,532 Speaker 8: she was going, right, well, what about kids, And I went, 2029 01:38:48,572 --> 01:38:52,452 Speaker 8: oh shit, I've had the snip and she's done. I'm bastard. 2030 01:38:52,532 --> 01:38:56,213 Speaker 8: I've been taking birth control the whole time we've been together, 2031 01:38:56,293 --> 01:38:58,293 Speaker 8: and I could have not bothered about it, you know, 2032 01:38:58,973 --> 01:39:01,173 Speaker 8: And so of course she didn't bother about it, and 2033 01:39:01,213 --> 01:39:03,972 Speaker 8: we had a happy old time for a while. Then 2034 01:39:04,452 --> 01:39:08,493 Speaker 8: came time for us to get in more serious. I 2035 01:39:08,532 --> 01:39:11,293 Speaker 8: asked to marry me, and she said, well, unless you 2036 01:39:11,293 --> 01:39:13,812 Speaker 8: can fill me up with arms and legs, you know, 2037 01:39:14,013 --> 01:39:16,772 Speaker 8: you hadn't got a shit shows. So I had to 2038 01:39:16,812 --> 01:39:19,892 Speaker 8: go and get a reversal. Now, twenty eight years ago, 2039 01:39:20,213 --> 01:39:24,533 Speaker 8: it cost me about five grand with a urologist in Wellington, 2040 01:39:25,173 --> 01:39:29,613 Speaker 8: and mate Greg is pretty much giving you a good description. 2041 01:39:30,772 --> 01:39:33,652 Speaker 8: I didn't have fishing wire. I had stainless steel wire 2042 01:39:34,213 --> 01:39:40,972 Speaker 8: that was threaded through the vass and basically a nice 2043 01:39:41,013 --> 01:39:44,772 Speaker 8: little stainless steel button on the outside of the old scroton. 2044 01:39:45,253 --> 01:39:48,173 Speaker 8: And I was quite proud of the piercings myself. They 2045 01:39:48,173 --> 01:39:52,372 Speaker 8: were there for about eighteen days back then, and that 2046 01:39:52,532 --> 01:39:55,492 Speaker 8: was pretty uncomfortable. I had a couple of black Doris plums. 2047 01:39:55,532 --> 01:40:01,052 Speaker 8: After the whole process been through. It's yeah, yeah, well 2048 01:40:01,133 --> 01:40:06,133 Speaker 8: I had a I just had a local so I 2049 01:40:06,173 --> 01:40:10,532 Speaker 8: got to watch. So it was a sudden procedure. Well 2050 01:40:10,572 --> 01:40:13,253 Speaker 8: I watched the mirror, but anyway, I just wanted to 2051 01:40:13,253 --> 01:40:15,973 Speaker 8: make sure that everything went well. Now, the key for 2052 01:40:16,093 --> 01:40:18,213 Speaker 8: it was when I had to desect me. You can 2053 01:40:18,293 --> 01:40:20,692 Speaker 8: chop a beast of the tube out, chuck it away, 2054 01:40:21,213 --> 01:40:24,053 Speaker 8: you can't put it back together. But mine was a 2055 01:40:24,093 --> 01:40:26,812 Speaker 8: fold back. So they chopped it and folded back both 2056 01:40:26,893 --> 01:40:30,172 Speaker 8: little tubes and just tied them off with a seature. 2057 01:40:31,572 --> 01:40:33,692 Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, and so all I had to hold them 2058 01:40:33,732 --> 01:40:36,652 Speaker 8: back out, slip this little bit of stainless wire down 2059 01:40:36,812 --> 01:40:40,093 Speaker 8: from down and out and tied it off with a 2060 01:40:40,133 --> 01:40:44,892 Speaker 8: button and do little seatures to make it knit back 2061 01:40:44,933 --> 01:40:48,572 Speaker 8: together and heal. But what a lot of people don't 2062 01:40:48,612 --> 01:40:52,932 Speaker 8: realize about having a esect me, my neurologist set up 2063 01:40:52,933 --> 01:40:56,932 Speaker 8: to about five years, you're pretty good to go. Any 2064 01:40:57,013 --> 01:41:00,572 Speaker 8: longer than that and everything sort of shrivels up. So 2065 01:41:00,652 --> 01:41:03,213 Speaker 8: that Chap who did it that nine years was like 2066 01:41:03,333 --> 01:41:09,213 Speaker 8: incredibly lucky. I don't know, maybe it's different now, but I. 2067 01:41:09,213 --> 01:41:11,732 Speaker 3: Think I heard that the outer limits to about ten years. 2068 01:41:13,412 --> 01:41:17,852 Speaker 18: Yeah, absolutely, Well, anyway, I was five, just going on five, 2069 01:41:18,372 --> 01:41:23,012 Speaker 18: And what a lot of people don't realize is your 2070 01:41:23,173 --> 01:41:24,452 Speaker 18: masculinity is. 2071 01:41:25,933 --> 01:41:27,773 Speaker 5: All about your. 2072 01:41:27,692 --> 01:41:31,133 Speaker 8: Production of bigots, you know, like having the real deal 2073 01:41:31,213 --> 01:41:35,572 Speaker 8: and shooting good bullets.

After I'd had my visectomy, I 2075 01:41:40,772 --> 01:41:45,972 Speaker 8: became a lot more calm and cruisy, and I wasn't 2076 01:41:46,013 --> 01:41:49,972 Speaker 8: flustered by things, and I didn't notice it.
