Expat Exposed is an information and community site that lays out the downside of emigrating to New Zealand, and helps potential and current expats help themselves through networking and emotional support.

Feeling profligate?

As a matter of policy, Expat Exposed does not run ads. While we're happy to shoulder the site costs, some people have voiced a desire to donate cash—and we'd be jerks to refuse an offer like that.

I think this generation (sorry I sound like an oldie here!) really drink too much and can't handle their grog..


Good on yer, you hit the nail on the head and said it like it is ! This generation(and maybe allready the one before) has definetely something wrong in their heads ! Uncontrollable, cocky and respectless louds with no idea about life and only one aim on their minds, get pissed and cause mayhem! Bring back 2 + years of compulsory military service of the harshest kind, that'll clip them !

Old Kiwi proverb: "What you don't know doesn't bother you !"
What else can we expect from these unqualified backward morons who try to run this country !?

Gurm, I agree with you, a bit of military service here in Oz wouldn't hurt some of them either! In my day (now I really sound old!), everyone saved up to go overseas and backpack around Europe, get a working visa and spend a couple of years working off and on, usually in London ( and in Belfast in my case)..

Now they go to Surfers Paradise (gold coast, qld), and get drunk..sounds fun.. Laugh
