It's just a fairly general questionnaire, it's not a budgeting document meant to account for every single dollar they spend.
I think it's more concerning that even people on $100K+ are feeling financial anxiety. I know there are those on less making it work, but if those on six figure incomes are feeling the pinch - imagine what a vast majority of kiwis are feeling right now.
Yes, I get the impression most people are worse off lately. Devil take the hindmost seems to be turning into devil take the entire bottom half.
I wonder what conclusions they will come to about what to do about it...
