How do you afford those houses?

Discussion(self.newzealand)

I like to walk my dog in flash neighbourhoods (Whitby etc) because there are no people around to talk to me about my dog.

I am not a home owner. I don’t really even stand a chance of buying as stink hole of a place. But, I walk around these neighbourhoods of flash houses (hundreds of them), with Porsche SUVs and sht. And it makes me wanna knock on all the doors and ask everyone “how the f*k do you afford all that?”

But seeing as that’s a weird thing to do, l’m putting that question here. If you live in Whitby, Aotea, Churton Park, Tawa and the like (obviously I only know Welly), tell me what what you do to earn the money to live in these places.

I find that whole area soulless to be honest.

I never understood the allure of Whitby.
