I live in beautiful New Zealand, where we are fortunate to have a good Social Welfare system. Living on a benefit is not all the envious reckon: I'd much rather be living on my own investments.
reading about peoples library fines. I've never had a fine at our library....and I frequently don't get things turned in on time. Must be a much more relaxed system here. Thank goodness, my budget has no line item for "fines".
