LIVE Q&A: Financial well-being with Cat Rikihana
Today (Wednesday) we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with Cat Rikihana who is a financial mentor, educator and financial capability practitioner at Financial Freedom Trust in the Manawatū.
Cat Rikihana (Ngai Tahu) like many financial mentors around Aotearoa, works with individuals, groups and whānau to successfully navigate financial stress and hardship. Mentors work alongside whānau to increase confidence and skills in personal money management and advocate with and for clients. Cat enjoys delivering online and face-to-face workshops which provide opportunities to normalise money conversations and encourages people to make time to consider their financial well-being.
Cat is also an independent financial well-being coach, educator and indigenous life coach at Restore Wellness Network. She is a published writer and currently in the process of writing her first non-fiction book: 'A financial self-care guide for women in Aotearoa.'
She'd love to answer any questions you may have around your budgeting and spending habits, strategies for saving, retirement planning and debt. (Don't be shy, but be mindful about what you disclose!)

Proposed speed changes.
The justification for the increase from 100 to 110kph from Rolleston to Curletts rd is mostly around improving efficiency.
I assumed, (yes, a very dangerous thing to do), that this was meaning that Trucks would increase in speed as well, which would have been a safety issue for me, but was the only logical reason for justifying the change on efficiency grounds.
However, a section off the Gvt site says "The 90km/h speed limit for heavy vehicles and towing vehicles applies on 110km/h roads. Where there are two lanes in each direction, other drivers can safely and easily pass slower-moving vehicles"
If the trucks can not speed up, how are efficiencies going to be made when only smaller vehicles, that can save 2 mins on each trip and Trucks zero?
Am I missing something?
