		<description><![CDATA[Owning rental property is an addiction here in New Zealand. Just about everyone I know has a rental property. Some even rent or flat share in more &#8220;desirable&#8221; locations than they could afford to buy in but have one or two rentals in other suburbs. Yet with all these rental properties, the government sees very [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tax. It&#8217;s a word that often instills emotion. Particularly if you are speaking to a small business owner. There are two distinct camps here in New Zealand. Well three if you include those that just don&#8217;t give a damn about anything. The first is that New Zealand is technically a low taxed country. This camp [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s a little expensive, without much change from $200. But, with the WorldXChange Xnet Fusion plan, we will be saving about $50 a month on telecommunications. In addition, I will be bringing the office phone for [...]]]></description>
