Podcasts about Cost of living

Is the rising cost of everything making you question whether love is still worth pursuing? We're unpacking how inflation, financial stress, and layoffs are impacting modern dating – and why media has declared 'dating has become a "rich person's game.' We discuss how money influences everything from who asks whom out to whether couples should split the bill, why financial anxiety is causing people to delay dating altogether, and how to date in practical ways that eliminate overspending (and why emotional investment matters more than expensive dates anyways!)

South Africa's housing market is facing a generational shift. New research shows that young homebuyers have more than halved over the past 20 years, while affordability, unemployment and rising living costs continue to keep many aspiring homeowners on the sidelines. At the same time, the Reserve Bank's decision to leave the repo rate unchanged raises questions about whether borrowing conditions will improve enough to revive demand. Africa Melane speaks to Herschel Jawitz, CEO of Jawitz Properties, about what these trends mean for buyers, sellers and the future of the property market Early Breakfast with Africa Melane is 702’s and CapeTalk’s early morning talk show.

Jeremy Cordeaux is back in the garage with Pete and Gary, and there's plenty on his mind. Pauline Hanson has regained top spot as preferred prime minister in the AFR's numbers — ahead of Labor and well ahead of the Liberals — and Jeremy can only imagine the panic in the back rooms. He turns to the quiet end of fuel excise relief, and his fury that not one journalist asked the Treasurer why the government would remove cost-of-living help while indexing the excise up on top — a fuel-price rise he warns will multiply through the price of everything. He also unpacks the $23.4 billion in electric-car subsidies running to 2036 ("no wonder they're selling well — what happens when it disappears?"), the "62 cents a day" tax cut he calls a disgrace, and Jacinta Allan's farewell speech as Victorian Premier — a "complete rewrite of history" from ten years of debt, the CFMEU, and a Commonwealth Games that cost nearly a billion and never happened. Plus H5 bird flu centred on South Australia, why the Muslim Brotherhood is banned in several countries but not Australia, and this day in history — Dom Pérignon, the Queen Mother, Marilyn Monroe, Louis Armstrong and Reg Grundy, for whom Jeremy once hosted Blind Date for $15 an episode.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former CNBC and Fox Business anchor Dennis Kneale joins me to explain why Americans are losing faith in capitalism even as the stock market and GDP keep climbing. We dig into housing costs, inflation, government regulation, entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence, and the growing disconnect between the economic numbers celebrated in Washington and the grocery bills crushing actual families. Dennis brings his relentless optimism, I bring the inconvenient questions, and somewhere along the way we determine that socialism still sucks, government is usually standing at the scene of the crime, and Americans may need to stop waiting for politicians to rescue them and start taking responsibility for building their own future.Order Dennie Kneale's new book Oregoners on Amazon: https://a.co/d/07Kz8y6YBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-jeff-dornik-show--4788100/support.Follow The Jeff Dornik Show on Apple Podcasts and leave a 5-star review.

Jeremy Cordeaux is in the chilly garage with Pete, Gary and Caroline the day before the Friday live stream, and there's plenty to chew over. He replays the David Speers interview in which the Prime Minister ducks, weaves and — in Jeremy's telling — visibly squirms when asked directly whether he attended a dinner at Felix Lee's Point Piper mansion, and about the alleged $1 million Labor donation that followed. Jeremy reckons there's much more to come. He also digs into the story he says isn't getting the coverage it deserves: research showing Australia's $4.5 trillion super funds invest only about 1% in renewables — because the experts have judged the risk — and his warning that the government will now be lobbied to force our retirement savings into net zero. Plus the Four Corners tomato exposé and dodgy country-of-origin labels, a real-estate "gridlock" with buyers and sellers both frozen, kids in Coober Pedy let off after attacks, the Yalata permit system Jeremy calls "apartheid", 50 years of no-fault divorce and the dark early history of the Family Court, an AI that reportedly broke out of its data centre, a $30 million bank CEO salary, the $1 million private-school bill, and Trump's new tariffs over "slave labour". Plus this day in history — the last Beetle, Henry Ford, Captain Cook and the USS Indianapolis.TOPICS DISCUSSED The Four Corners tomato exposé — country-of-origin labels, China-grown product Labor's Adelaide conference and its long-term strategy; a united front for the cameras David Speers interviewing Albanese; the Felix Lee Point Piper dinner and alleged $1m donation Real-estate "gridlock" — one of the worst auction weekends in living memory $4.5 trillion in super funds; only ~1% invested in renewables, and why The looming push to force super into net zero investments Channel Seven's Coober Pedy story — kids aged 7–12 let off after attacks Outback towns, alcohol, "pension day and royalties day" The Yalata permit system on the Nullarbor — Jeremy calls it apartheid 50 years of the Family Law Act, Lionel Murphy and no-fault divorce; Family Court death threats An AI reportedly breaking out of its data centre; the "kill switch" question Macquarie Bank CEO's ~$30 million salary; $1 million to privately educate two kids Trump's new tariffs over "slave labour" Tomorrow's live stream: Dr John Bruni, Professor Ian Plimer, Frank Sebastian, maybe Rex Leverington This day in history: last VW Beetle, Henry Ford, Captain Cook, Arnold Schwarzenegger, USS Indianapolis, Paul Anka See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If we're not prepared to stop paying the NZ Super pension to people whether they need it or not, then we need to think very seriously about whether we pay it to people who move here from overseas. Sounds tough, I know. But, hopefully, this revelation today that we are paying $1 billion a year in pension payments to people from other countries - double what it was 10 years ago - will bring us to our senses. Because we can't keep carrying on the way we are. So, $1 billion a year in pension payments is going to migrants over the age of 65. Which Finance Minister Nicola Willis is OK with, saying changes that require someone to be a New Zealand resident for 20 years - instead of 10 years - are enough. Winston Peters, though, disagrees, saying that we should “watch this space” for some sort of announcement from NZ First sometime soon. But, if we go by what NZ First has said previously, the party could be about to announce that it's bringing back an idea that it floated about 10 years ago but never got anywhere with. But it's an idea I like. So what NZ First has talked about previously, isn't stopping paying the pension to migrants full-stop. But running a pro-rata system, based on how long they've lived here between the ages of 20 and 65. Funnily enough, Labour and the Greens supported the idea when it was floated in 2015. But National, at the time, opposed it, with some of its MPs saying the policy was “disgusting, bigoted and racist”. It seems, based on what Nicola Willis is saying today, that it hasn't changed its tune since then, either. But something needs to change. Because, over the next 30-odd years, the number of pensioners is expected to roughly double. And the cost of the NZ Super scheme during that time is expected to grow 1.5 times faster than the economy. Which is why Winston Peters is right when he says we haven't gone far enough just requiring migrants to be New Zealand residents for 20 years before they qualify for the pension, instead of 10 years. The thing is, I understand how odd it would be for someone to move here, spend a decent chunk of their working life here, and then - when they turn 65 - be told that there's no pension for them and to fend for themselves. But when the cost of the NZ Super pension scheme is going to blow out to the extent that Treasury says it is, what do we do? Banning people who move here from overseas from getting the pension would put us at odds with other countries, such as the UK, where you can go and get a pension after being there for 10 years. That's why I think the pro-rata idea, that NZ First may be about to resurrect, would be a much more realistic approach. Because doing nothing isn't an option anymore.

An economist says New Zealand is no longer in a cost of living crisis. New Stats NZ data shows the cost of living for the average New Zealand household increased 3.2% in the year to June 2026 quarter. It's the largest jump in more than four years, with higher petrol prices accounting for almost one-third of the annual increase Westpac Chief Economist Kelly Eckhold told Mike Hosking it isn't a crisis, but concedes it's not a comfortable situation for many. He says cost increases are outstripping wage increases, but it isn't as bad as the post-Covid era. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It turns out a lot is in a name. Stats NZ gave us the latest household living-costs price indexes. This is what we pay for stuff. This is the cost of our living or, as is more often than not referred to by the media and the miserable, the "cost of living crisis". In that name, "the cost of living crisis", lies a lot of our problems. And a lot of our problems lie in our attitude. The "cost of living crisis" no longer exists. It arrived in Covid and it roughly finished when inflation dropped back to a more orderly level. Now this is not to say things are perfect, or brimming, or bullish. It's just that it's not as bad as it was, nor indeed anywhere close. But we've decided the "cost of living crisis" has stuck. It makes us feel justified in moaning and it gives some political operators ammunition. The actual increase in our cost of living was 3.2%. That's actually not bad. It's not great, but it's not bad and just about in the Reserve Bank band. If you take out petrol, which has nothing to do with us, it would have been way lower. What was way lower was the interest rate costs on the mortgage. See, not everything is going up. We hear a lot about power and rates, and rightly so, but little about the mass saving that has arrived in our bank accounts by paying interest rates that by any historic reading are quite low. Like all stories your individual circumstances matter; how much petrol you use, what your income is, what industry you are in, what sort of pay rise you got, etc. They are in fact, the majority of people you know, doing fine. They have plentiful work, they are well paid, they have savings, take holidays, wish the power bill was cheaper but, by and large, life is decent and there is no crisis. It's getting close to the time that if we can get the war out of the way, the oil at about $70 a barrel consistently, and renewable power supply dropping generation prices, we will actually arrive economically at a pretty good spot. At 3.2% with a war, we are close to being maybe 2% without one. And that is what they call a sweet spot. All that's left is for those obsessed with the negativity of a crisis to recognise that it isn't. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The rising cost of living is down to more than global uncertainty, according to one expert. Stats NZ data shows costs for the average household jumped 3.2 percent annually to June, a more than four-year-high. Petrol was the biggest contributor - skyrocketing more than 27 percent. Independent economist Cameron Bagrie says shocks like US tariffs and its war with Iran play a role, but core inflation is still higher than before Covid. "But there's a little bit more of a sticky persistent inflation - it's the obvious drivers like rates, it's your insurance, it's your energy bills, which the Reserve Bank can't control."

Advocates say the cost of living is hitting the elderly particularly hard, with some skipping meals or going to bed early to save power. President David Marshall spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

So, this cost of living crisis is not going away anytime soon, despite what any number of New Zealand political parties promise they can do about it. The inflation figures are out. It's gone up by one percentage point and there's now a four in front of it. A large part of that cost is petrol, which we can do nothing about. Diesel is up 7.1%. But even excluding tradable inflation, which we can't influence, non-tradable inflation is still above the Reserve Bank's arbitrary target band. It came in at 2.9%. That's up from 2.4% a year ago. There's stuff in there that really gets our goat, like the 12% rise in electricity prices. Rates are up 8.8%. That's the non-tradable stuff. We can influence that but we're not. It's all going up. But all this increases the pressure on the Reserve Bank to raise interest rates to squash these price rises. The problem I have with that is that the nascent recovery we're starting to see gets squashed as well, forcing us into a longer period of downturn and stagnation. And that's because this simplistic inflation target does not take into account all the complex wheels that spin in an economy. It's this brutal, simplistic measure that served us so well when it was first introduced 30 years ago but is now seeing us boom and bust, lurching up and down on a rollercoaster that, you have to say, is no good for long-term economic planning. There is a strong argument for a new way of calculating our economic position rather than relying on a single inflation figure. But it's going to take a very smart person to figure that out. So until then, the fairground ride that is our macroeconomic setting will continue.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Consumers Price Index (CPI) has increased 4.1% in the 12 months to the June 2026 quarter, according to figures released by Stats NZ today. As expected, the increase can be partially contributed to the US-Iran war as the largest upwards contributor to the annual inflation rate was petrol, up 27.5%. Finance Minister Nicola Willis is labelling annual inflation hitting its highest level in more than two years a “Trump spike”. Former Reserve Bank senior economist Michael Reddell told Andrew Dickens that economists don't tend to look at the headline numbers but they will be digging through the numbers to find trends. "It's a bit like the famous line about democracy, you know, it's not a perfect system, it's just better than any of the alternatives that have been tried, and inflation targeting is a bit like that as well. It's definitely not perfect." LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us Fan MailIn this transformative episode of The Box & The Sky series, Keya McClain the Poet explores the hidden cost of choosing comfort over alignment and the emotional price many people pay for remaining inside lives they've already outgrown.Drawing from her own entrepreneurial journey and personal evolution, Keya reflects on the many "boxes" she has lived in—from people-pleasing and perfectionism to timelines, expectations, and identities that no longer fit.This conversation challenges listeners to ask one powerful question:Am I staying because I'm aligned...or because I'm comfortable?In this episode, Keya discusses:• Why familiar doesn't always mean healthy• The emotional cost of staying inside outdated identities• Comfort versus alignment• The courage required to evolve• Letting go of people-pleasing and perfectionism• Honoring intuition over external expectations• Why authenticity often requires discomfort before freedomKeya reminds us that healing isn't about escaping every uncomfortable moment—it's about recognizing when the life you've built has become too small for the person you're becoming.This episode is for anyone standing at the edge of change, wondering whether to stay where life feels familiar or trust themselves enough to grow.Sometimes the greatest risk isn't changing.It's remaining in a box you've already outgrown.Support the show
