There's an article on RNZ about retirement

I am lucky. I have subsidised accommodation that makes renting affordable. I live lean, with no responsibilities for others any more so my spending reflects that. I am well set up as far as essentials go now, having replaced fridge and mattress over the past couple of years, and my borrowing to do that is now rationalised and well under control, so I am saving a small amount each fortnight on Super as my only income.

I am one of the lucky ones. I live a very good life after years of interesting times, and I am content.
