Has any actually thought about that? I am not being mean to anyone in respect with the retirement age going up or down, but am just concerned if like my generation now, I'm in my mid 30's still young and active, what will happen if retirement age does keep going up and up? What the next generation look forward to when we get to that age? You need to think of not just older people (no respect) but what will your children or grandchildren in their 30's onwards have for an retirement? Can you see it on a bigger scale to speak? Here's the youtube clip about the retirement age with John Campbell.

This is the last opportunity in Auckland for 2019 before she sets sail on many adventures over the summer.
This is the perfect opportunity to sail around the Auckland harbour; hoist the sails, helm the Ship or sit back, go for the ride and enjoy the view. You will also be treated to freshly baked treats for morning tea.
Spaces are limited. We look forward to having you on the ship.
Hi Neighbours, Auckland has 3 electric buses and Marrakesh had 15 - two years ago. Former PM Helen Clark thinks the city can be far more ambitious in meeting the UN's sustainable development goals. Do you think we could show the way? Read the story below.

For example, one particular brand (Vype) has nicotine in it and as no cigarette company was ever allowed to advertise on Television, how on earth has this been allowed to happen?
With the very serious health concerns with vaping now surfacing, this should NOT be allowed to happen.
