But the real wealth is off course in the South Island;Nelson,Blenheim,Motueka,North Canterbury,Culverden,Rangoria,Christchurch,Akaroa, Ashburton,Geraldine,Temuka,Timaru,Dunedin,Invercar gil and Queenstown..
So any retirement business operating solely in Auckland will do well in Auckland,and miss the golden opportunities the likes of Ryman and Summerset are taking the advantage of .!!

Shucks mate, you're making me want to change jobs and become a travelling salesman

Strangely, one of only few stocks which gets 70% margin lending. This says something about the stock.

Discl: sold most of mine though.

Some people may have heard about this experiment before.....

Behaviour psychologists did an experiment with 4 year olds....I went something like this.

These kids were offered a piece of chocolate i.e. placed in front of them.

They were then told they could eat same know.

However if they were prepared to wait 15 min they would get two pieces.

Some waited some did not.

Years later "they" followed up these kids...probably approaching adulthood....

The experiment determined that those kids who were prepared to wait were in general ..more balanced and "successful" in their lives and did not display of any/or minimal narcissistic traits.

The above is I believe fairly accurate.I heard same on the national programme.

Just saying is all.

An interesting article in today's Herald about a block of land in St John's Rd Auckland, owned by the St John's College Trust which is being offered for a 127 year lease, payment for use for that period up front. Known as "Parsons' Paddock", it's 2.5ha and touted as being suitable for a retirement village as well as a housing development. It would be a great location for the former, IMO, but is 2.5ha a viable size for one of the big three? Probably.
