The Lighter Side of money....continues
The man whose money looked too strange to be real
In 2005, Mike Bolesta went to Best Buy to pay a US$114 car stereo installation bill. He decided to pay with 57 crisp two-dollar bills.
This was not because he was a criminal mastermind. It was a small protest over the bill, and two-dollar bills were genuine American money.
Unfortunately, the store staff were not convinced. The bills looked so unusual that police were called. Bolesta was reportedly arrested, and the Secret Service eventually had to confirm that the money was real.
That is a wonderfully strange money problem.
Most people worry about not having enough cash.
Bolesta had the opposite problem.
His cash was so uncommon that people thought it was imaginary

THE LIGHTER SIDE OF MONEY- Part 6
With the compliments of Mortgage Suite www.mortgagesuite.co.nz
The cat who inherited a fortune
In 1988, a British cat named Blackie became one of the wealthiest pets in history.
His owner, Ben Rea, was a millionaire antiques dealer who shared his mansion with 15 cats.
When Rea died, Blackie was the last surviving cat, and Rea left a fortune worth £7 million to help care for him.
The money was not handed to Blackie in a tiny cheque book, of course. It was split between three cat charities, with instructions to look after him.
It proves one thing. Sometimes the smartest financial move is simply being the favourite cat in the house.

The lighter side of Money😂😂😂
The hotel where a doodle could pay the bill
In 2012, the Clarion Hotel Stockholm came up with a wonderfully unusual way to fill its rooms.
Instead of paying with cash or a credit card, guests could pay with art.
The hotel called the idea “Room for Art.” Bring in an original signed artwork on A4 paper and you could exchange it for a one-night stay in a double room.
The brilliant part was how relaxed the hotel seemed to be about the definition of art. If you considered it art, they were not going to argue too much.
Which means, for one magical moment, a drawing, painting or very confident doodle could become hotel currency.
It is a lovely reminder that money is not always coins, notes or numbers on a screen. Sometimes, it is whatever someone else is willing to accept. A Hug may be???💖💖

OCR- Increase
RBNZ pulls the trigger
The Reserve Bank has increased the OCR. Here's what it said.
Wednesday, July 8th 2026

The Monetary Policy Committee today reached consensus to increase the OCR by 25 basis points to 2.50%.

Following the partial reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, global oil prices have fallen markedly. Other petrochemical prices have also moved lower. As a result, near-term inflation pressures have eased.

Although energy prices have decreased, the effects of the shock will linger for some time and the outlook for medium-term inflation pressures remains uncertain. The stance of monetary policy is calibrated to bring inflation back to target without causing unnecessary economic instability.

Global growth has been resilient to the effects of tariffs and conflict in the Middle East, largely because of strong AI-related investment and spending on defence and economic security. Headline inflation in New Zealand’s trading partners has increased but is expected to ease to close to 2% in 2027.

Markets expect global policy rates to increase above pre-conflict levels, as central banks may need to respond to persistent energy-driven inflation pressures.

New Zealand’s economic recovery was underway before the Middle East conflict, but lost momentum in the June quarter as the oil shock weighed on economic activity.

Growth is expected to resume in the September quarter as these effects fade and confidence improves. Over the medium term, inflation returning to the 2% target mid-point will lift household purchasing power and help support a sustained recovery in growth and employment.

The outlook for medium-term inflation pressures depends on the extent to which recent cost increases feed through into higher prices.

Spare capacity in the economy is expected to limit firms’ ability to pass on higher costs, meaning many businesses may need to absorb them in margins. However, some firms may look to rebuild margins as demand recovers. If sustained, a lower exchange rate could also add to medium-term inflation pressures.

With inflation still above target and economic activity expected to strengthen, some further reduction in monetary stimulus is likely to be required to return inflation to the 2% target mid-point.

Future OCR decisions will depend on how incoming data, price-setting behaviour, and the strength of economic activity affect medium-term inflation pressures.

The Lighter side of Money
The wallet clean-out worth £51,232
In 2014, James Wilson from Bradley Stoke, near Bristol, was clearing out his wallet when he found an old EuroMillions ticket.
Most people find loyalty cards, receipts and maybe a mystery coin.
James found £51,232.90.
The ticket was real, the prize was real, and the timing was almost unbelievable.
He had discovered it just one day before the deadline to claim the money.
That is cutting things a little close. It is a lovely reminder to check your pockets, wallets and kitchen drawers before throwing anything away.
Sometimes the most valuable thing in the house is not hidden treasure.
It is the small piece of paper you nearly forgot existed.

The Million-Dollar coin worth much more
In 2012, The Perth Mint unveiled a coin with a face value of one million Australian dollars. That sounds impressive until you discover the coin weighs more than one tonne.
The Australian Kangaroo One Tonne Gold Coin is made from 99.99% pure gold and weighs 1,012 kilograms.
Guinness World Records recognised it as the largest legal-tender coin in the world.
But here is the funny part. Although the coin says it is worth A$1 million, the gold inside it has been valued at many times that amount. It is one of the few coins where spending it would be a terrible financial decision

The Coin Worth More Than $10 Million
In 1933, the United States Mint produced a small number of $20 gold coins known as the Double Eagle. But the coins were never officially released.
That year the U.S. government abandoned the gold standard and ordered almost all of the coins to be melted down.
A few mysteriously survived. For decades the surviving coins became the subject of legal battles, secret collections and international intrigue.
Today only one example can be privately owned.
When that single coin was auctioned in 2021, it sold for an astonishing $18.9 million, making it the most valuable coin ever sold.
Not bad for a coin that originally had a face value of just $20.

The Treasure Chest Hidden in the Rocky Mountains
In 2010, American art dealer and author Forrest Fenn did something unusual with his fortune.
He hid a bronze treasure chest filled with gold coins, nuggets, jewellery and rare artefacts somewhere in the Rocky Mountains of the United States.
Then he published a 24-line poem in his memoir The Thrill of the Chase, containing clues to its location. Over the next decade, thousands of people travelled across the mountains searching for the hidden treasure.
Some spent years studying the poem and exploring remote valleys and rivers.
Finally, in June 2020, a man from Michigan named Jack Stuef located the chest in Wyoming. Its estimated value was more than $1 million. One man’s unusual idea turned money into a decade-long real-world treasure hunt
