Well a lot has happened. I've left Wellington and made the move home. I also saw the All Blacks play on another wet All Black game (my third consecutive wet All Black game). I hoped to find someone to fill my room to cover my rent obligation. But nobody has come yet and at this point I'll let it sit empty and not pay rent. I've paid so many bills in my absence for that flat that I'll let them take it from my tab.

So now the question points to what now? So far it is just carry on doing what I'm doing. I think work has slowed down and I may actually start seeing full weekends. Which will make no difference to my net income as my rent works out to be over a days wage. So I guess I end out ahead. I wont dwell on how much I could of saved if I left earlier as that would be like asking a lifetime lotto player how much they would of saved if they had never played (assuming no major wins). I guess we just hope for great things to happen so the gamble doesn't seem as great.
