It was announced last week that the self-proclaimed ‘world’s most experienced plaque unveiler’, Prince Philip, would retire at the age of 96. Though plaque-unveiling is a far less strenuous job than most of us will ever do, 96 is a grand old age to work to. But the Prince is in a very privileged position. He’s able to enjoy retirement in a comfortable home and food, healthcare and heating costs have never been an issue for the Prince. We commoners aren’t afforded the same luxury and here in Queenstown, the cost of retirement is too high for many. Queenstown, Arrowtown and Cromwell retirement homes are being planned and developed, but the marketing guff places these firmly at the expensive end of the scale. They’re described as “retirement without compromise” and “arguably the most luxurious and prestigious retirement home New Zealand has ever seen.” While there’s nothing wrong with luxurious retirement homes catering to the rich few who choose that lifestyle, it makes me wonder how our other retirees will fare now and in the future. A study published in 2011 by health economists said that today’s retirees need to spend $5,600 - $7,400 a year on top of their NZ Super to live a healthy, happy lifestyle. Interestingly, the ‘healthy, happy lifestyle’ defined in the study includes a landline connection, but no internet; a pet cat, but no dental care and magazines, no booze and no holidays. The study wasn’t specific to Queenstown, so in our area there’s other factors and costs to consider in addition.

Our weather is colder and damper than other areas of New Zealand, so heating costs are likely to be higher. The study also presumes that pensioners have access to free, off-peak public transport; but here in Queenstown, public transport isn’t accessible or regular enough, particularly for those who live in areas like Arthur’s Point. Queenstown has limited resources to assist older people, so many will need to add travel costs into their healthcare budgets. I know of families who have moved older relatives with dementia or serious health care issues out of town, to cities with more comprehensive healthcare facilities. Perhaps most difficult of all, property and rental prices in Queenstown have skyrocketed. The high price tag of Queenstown living is driving young families out of town and some may be leaving their older relatives behind. This is not only a lonely predicament, it’s a vulnerable one. The retirement age has gone up, but to continue living in Queenstown, many older people may have to work past this age. Unless Queenstown figures out affordable housing, better transport and healthcare in the future, some may have to work until they’re 96 years old out of necessity rather than privilege. Bethany G.

ASK ME
Gypsy Town?
Working in town everyday, I have come to notice a growing number of unkept individuals sitting on the floor selling cheap and nasty tack to unsuspecting tourists. Businesses pay lots of money to have signs and stalls to advertise and sell their products, and have staff who pay their taxes and have working holiday
Response From Lee Webster, QLDC Regulatory Manger Thank you for raising this matter and the opportunity to respond. Council has an Activities in Public Places Bylaw that deals with activities as you describe in public places. While we cannot control an individuals appearance, or that they are selling a similar product to those from shops etc, we can control the activity. Council reviewed this Bylaw recently, and following public consultation, there was a desire to enable more diversity while recognising the
visas to be able to afford to live in this beautiful town. Why should these freeloading travellers be able to hang out on corners all day breaking all the busking and selling laws with seemingly nothing being done about it?
Local Whinger
rates paid by our business community. As a result, certain activities are permitted, providing they are following the rules, which can be found on our website (qldc.govt.nz/services/permits/activitiesin-a-public-place/). If you see an activity not following the rules, please don’t hesitate to contact us in order that we can respond to the concern.
But if people were making the money out of a food shortage that some are making out of the housing shortage, they’d be run out of the country.
Long Term Immigrant
Rock Stacking I took our overseas visitor to visit some of the many places of stunning natural beauty with which our region abounds. On a drive to Haast we took in the Blue Pools and Fantail Waterfall. Expecting unadulterated natural beauty what did we find? Dozens of stacks of rocks!! Why? Is it some sort of ego trip by the builder? A statement to declare “I was here”? Or is it really just akin to a dog pissing on a tree?

Housing I’m just going to come out and say it. Housing is a necessity, like food and water, we all need somewhere to live.
Are you going to support WinterFest this year?
I find this moronic practice offensive and really just another form of environmental vandalism. A number of people I have spoken to feel the same way.
Editorial - 598 The thing is, Queenstown is getting more and more expensive to live in and wages are not following (big surprise!) and to most town workers that basically translates to ‘save money to pay for winter bills’ which in turn means we’re not coming out to play (and spend) in mid-season. Better wait till the first snow hits and spend our hard-earned money on the mountains and use our savings to pay the ever increasing power bills.
Qtw Worker Hi Scott, please be asurred we are all sitting at home practicing our fixed smile and happy jiggle so that when the big end of town commands us we can go and be happy locals and props for their advertising campaigns.
Street Walker Thanks Scotty. A very thoughtful article and right on the nose.

Name: Amie Fosbraey Place of Work: Loco Cantinawhere dreams are made and babies are conceived Nationality: CHAV How long local: 6 months When you are not at work where do you party? I can be found lurking in dark corners of backpacker bars waiting for the opportune moment to lure unsuspecting boys into my love den. Favourite customers: The ones I match on tinder when the bus pulls up outside How’s the love life and what’s your 5 year plan? I recently applied for the TV show ‘Married at First Sight’, I am hoping to trap someone into marriage & never let them leave me & my cat family During daylight hours, what floats your boat? I like to ride the bus round and round and sit really close to strangers, so it looks like we are a couple. Sometimes I take sneaky selfies and photoshop them onto holiday cards to send to my mum What is the biggest issue facing QT? Always getting caught doing the walk of shame & not enough places selling big hoop earrings
