Pity the poor, poor, struggling billionaires...
They only saw their unimaginable wealth grow by $7 billion last year.
So they get a fawning RNZ article that talks about how they're 'struggling' in these 'tough times'.
Could there be a clearer way of highlighting how completely out of touch they are with the world that 99% of kiwis live in?
