Our young people are chasing the Kiwi dream ... in Australia

from Money Talks · host NZ Herald

It might feel weird telling the young people in your life to pack up and head across the ditch for better prospects, but right now it may actually be the best advice.   Youth unemployment is sitting at worrying levels in New Zealand, the cost of living crisis is dragging on and somehow our mates in Australia seem to have jobs to spare and money to burn.   Join Liam Dann and Tamsyn Parker as they unpack why so many young Kiwis are eyeing Australia, what’s driving the latest brain drain fears and whether New Zealand’s economy is about to get even tougher.   The Economy of Everything is brought to you by NZ Herald in partnership with CMC Markets.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
