A non-comprehensive list of things worth saving up for
A bunch of people at The Spinoff (and some of our kids) on the things we've saved for. From beach trips, babies, bikes and books to plants, pants and Pokémon cards, savings goals can be smart, silly, maybe even a little bit shallow. This list covers all the bases. A mountain bike I grew up riding bikes constantly. Every weekend a neighbour friend and I rode up Makara Peak and 'did jumps' down the big concrete steps at the teachers college. But I didn't have my own bike. With eight older siblings, there was no way my parents were buying me a bike after they bought my older sister one already (I rode it more than her) and my older brother one a decade earlier (which we all learned to ride as our first bike). My friend had money, and he got a new bike seemingly every Christmas that I would beg for a turn on. So when I got a paper run in intermediate, my $120 fortnightly paycheck went to three things: hot chips, dairy lollies and saving for my own bike. I researched bikes constantly, weighing up how much I could stomach spending as an 11-year-old vs how cool I wanted my bike to be. I kept an eye on every sale at the big bike stores and finally, six months after I started earning my own money, I bought my own Avanti mountain bike. It was light blue, had disc brakes, front suspension, was a little bit big for me to grow into, and was on special for $599. It was perfect. I felt sick handing literally all of my money over but I rode that bike into the ground for years, used it to commute to college for a while, and eventually sold it to a local kid when I went to university. / Mad Chapman Art stuff I'm saving for a giant play kitchen and ice cream. As an adult, I'll save for a phone, a phone case and a computer. I want to be an artist or a book writer – so I'll need to buy paper and art stuff too. [I'll also need to hire] a bus driver to drive my rainbow bus. / Desi (age 5) An emergency fund I grew up in a frugal household, so I have a pretty anxious relationship with money. While I tend to spend a lot on things I like, I hate the feeling of being in a position where I don't have a safety net. So I started a savings account that is not very visible to me. I transfer money every now and then in case life throws me a curveball. So yeah, I'm saving for a curveball. / Isaiah Tour Saving for an emergency fund, holiday, car, wedding or big appliance? A Westpac Bonus Saver account allows you to grow your savings, get bonus returns and access your money anytime. Increase your balance by $20 a month and you'll get bonus interest. A Euro summer To this day, the most amount of money I've ever spent at one time was on my first overseas trip when I was 18. I mopped floors and served burritos (in a restaurant that now no longer exists, rest in pieces Zambrero K Road) for three years through high school so I could finally get out of this stupid milkloving piece of shit dumbass mean spirited sale at Briscoes racist sexist 40% off deck furniture piss country and perhaps experience some culture. I remember going to a travel agent after saving my first $3,000, booking my return flights and feeling both dazed that doing something so big could be so easy, and incredibly amazed that I actually managed to get to that point after growing up with such a big scarcity mindset. Suffice to say I had the best ever time blowing my hard-earned cash on cheap piss almost every night on a two-week Contiki tour then making up for my sins with a two week solo trip checking out the art and history in Rome and Paris. I was saying to a friend who grew up in a similar financial situation recently, that not being born into wealth means you walk the world with limitations built into your brain: I cannot have this thing, because it was never meant to be mine anyway. Experiencing true financial freedom like that really made a massive difference to my self-confidence and my ability to dream. / Lyric Waiwiri-Smith Gaming stuff I have been saving real money for a long time now. I'm saving for Robux. I don't really know what I would save for as an adult. Oh… a VR headset! And a house. If I'm going to be a gamer, I will need to save a lot for gaming stuff and a green screen. / Milo (age 8) A drum machine I knew time was running out. With our first baby due, I desperately wanted one last hobby hurrah. I'd fixed my sights on an Elektron Digitakt, a $2,000 drum machine, my final stand against impending time constraints. Every spare dollar, every skipped luxury, went into that fund. The day I finally bought it felt like pure victory. For a week, I was lost in its beats, a brief, blissful escape. Then, we came home to a kicked-in door. My new Digitakt was gone, lost to a robbery. The sting was immense, a cruel end to my creative dream. But the story had one last twist. The insurance money, meant to replace my stolen gear, ended up buying something far more essential: a child seat. My last grasp at personal freedom was transformed, ironically, into a necessity for the very life that had prompted my desperate purchase. A stark, undeniable surrender to the new reality. / Guy Annan Clothes (that I get to pick) When I was little, I never got to choose my clothing. It was all hand-me-downs. Last year I decided I wanted to choose my own clothes especially because I'm going to a high school that doesn't have a uniform. I started looking online and in stores and created a plan for saving: pocket money, extra chores, a few cake stalls. So far, it's going well. I've saved nearly $100. / Tessa (age 12) Saving for a cool outfit, funky manicure or gig tickets? A Westpac Simple Saver account offers uncomplicated savings with access anytime. A great option if you're just starting out with saving.* Christmas I'm not really saving for anything. Oh actually, maybe a Christmas present for myself, but I dunno. As an adult maybe I'll save for a house, a phone, a car. You need lots of things as an adult. / Henry (age 9) Albert, the love of our lives In 2021, my now husband and I decided to go all-in and combine our families. Which meant four kids under one roof – very expensive. We started thinking about the things we wanted as a family – holidays, treats, schooling, a dog. We really wanted that last one, so we started saving. Browsing on Trade Me one sunny afternoon, there he was, last of the litter, a little guy who the breeder thought was too small. Having that money saved meant when Albert's wee face popped up, we were able to make a quick decision. Albert is the absolute best dog, he has gotten all of us through some hectic times. We would not be us without him. He loves coming to The Spinoff with me and brings beautiful joy to people's hearts. Pretty bloody priceless. / Bec Murphy Investments I'm saving to invest in some company's [companies] and to buy a valuable Pokémon card. I hope to grade it and then have the price go up. / Wynn (age 10) My first motorbike In my early 20s I was working at my first Real Grown Up Job in publishing. I was making barely minimum wage and had recently given up my previous favourite sport due to a gnarly knee injury. My boyfriend was interested in taking up off-roading, and managed to score an ancient Honda XL250 for free. I was game to give it a try, and clad in a bunch of ancient way-too-big motocross gear, learned to slowly maneouvre the clutch, gears and so on. After that, I was hooked, and had to get a bike of my own. I saved up and eventually settled on a small 4 stroke DR-Z125. It was the first major purchase I'd made in my life. It was intimidating to hold that many notes in hand. We had to go to two separate machines to withdraw it all. That little yellow bike took me on a ton of adventure. It taught me basic machine maintenance, and I got to see parts of the country I'd never have been able to access by foot or car. / Sacha Laird A beach trip I'm saving for a trip to Australia. And bikinis. / Wilder (age 13) Not sure what kind of account is best for your savings goal? Westpac's Savings & Investment Chooser Tool offers tailored advice on savings options to suit your needs and future goals.** Secondhand books In 2020 I read Lolly Willowes, a novel by deceased UK author, Sylvia Townsend Warner. I loved it so much. I became obsessed with everything the author had ever written, and why and how. Trouble was, most of her books were hard to find and very expensive. But I had to have them. I started a book savings account and tucked money into it as often as I could. A couple of years later I was selected to go to Edinburgh Book Festival on an international exchange programme. The trip allowed me a diversion down to Dorset where Townsend Warner lived. I knew many of her books would be secreted away in the town's second hand book stores. When I got there, I found first editions of Sylvia Townsend Warner's biography, diary collections, and more. The savings were drained. / Claire Mabey *Account T&Cs and fees apply.

Avanti Helium Secures Foundational Offtake Agreement, Marking Major Milestone Toward Production
CALGARY, AB, Aug. 7, 2025 /CNW/ - Avanti Helium Corp. (TSXV: AVN) (OTC: ARGYF) ("Avanti" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce the signing of a major multi-year take-or-pay helium offtake agreement with a leading global supplier of industrial gases. The landmark agreement marks a significant commercial milestone for Avanti as the Company is moving towards helium production at its Sweetgrass Helium Recovery Unit (HRU) in Montana. Under the terms of the agreement, which includes a three-year initial term with renewal options, the buyer has committed to a minimum monthly volume representing approximately 33% of initial plant output and 25% of the production volume following the facility's planned expansion. The agreement underscores growing global demand for helium—a critical and increasingly scarce resource essential to advanced technologies, medical imaging, semiconductor manufacturing, aerospace applications, and more. Both of Avanti's high-deliverability wells, WNG 11-22 and WNG 10-21, are fully piped to the edge of HRU site. The Company will be providing additional detailed operational announcements and regular project updates as it progresses toward full-scale commissioning and ramp-up. Due to confidentiality provisions, the name of the counterparty and specific pricing terms remain undisclosed. However, this agreement locks in a substantial revenue stream and provides a foundation for future growth and additional offtake agreements currently in negotiation. "The execution of this offtake agreement is a pivotal achievement for Avanti as we move toward production," said Chris Bakker, CEO of Avanti Helium. "The helium market continues to evolve, driven by accelerating US demand and uncertainty in the global supply chain. This agreement validates the strategic importance of both our Sweetgrass asset and general focus on US assets, and elevates Avanti as a key player in the North American helium landscape. With helium prices rising and supply-demand fundamentals strengthening, we are extremely bullish on the future and excited to continue building long-term value for our shareholders." This agreement is the first of several expected commercial arrangements that will fully contract the output from the Sweetgrass facility. The Company is actively engaged in discussions with other potential offtake partners for remaining volumes. Stock Options The Company announces that it has granted 4,600,000 stock options to certain employees, directors, officers and consultants of the Company. Each option is exercisable at $0.11 per share for a period of five years from the date of grant. The options will vest in accordance with the requirements set by the board of directors of the Company. About Avanti Helium Corp. Avanti Helium Corp. is a North American helium exploration and development company focused on unlocking domestic helium resources across Western Canada and the United States. Leveraging deep expertise from the oil and gas sector, Avanti targets geologic structures with high concentrations of helium to meet the surging global demand for this irreplaceable noble gas. Helium is essential for a range of high-tech and industrial applications, including medical imaging (MRI), semiconductor production, fiber optics, aerospace systems, and quantum computing. With global supply facing frequent disruptions and geopolitical risks, Avanti is strategically positioned to provide a stable and secure source of North American helium.

Avanti Feeds, Apex Frozen slip up to 5%. Why shrimp stocks under pressure?
Avanti Feeds, Apex Frozen Foods share price today Shares of Avanti Feeds (₹631.80) and Apex Frozen Foods (₹217.15) were under pressure, falling 5 per cent each on the BSE in Thursday's intra-day trade after US President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced imposing additional 25 per cent tariffs on India. At 12:48 AM; Avanti Feeds and Apex Frozen Foods were trading 4 per cent lower, as compared to 0.53 per cent decline in the BSE Sensex. Why shrimp stocks are under pressure? The US president Donald Trump on Wednesday announced an additional 25 per cent tariff rate on India for its continued purchase of Russian crude oil. The new duty, set to take effect in three weeks, will come on top of a separate 25 per cent tariff raising the total tariff burden on most Indian goods to 50 per cent. The tariff will be imposed in addition to separate 25 per cent duty taking effect from August 7, 2025. "The 21-day window for the additional 25 per cent tariff to take effect leaves room for negotiation and an eventual deal with the US. But there is huge uncertainty surrounding the trade policy and to what extent both nations will be willing to make compromises. The market is unlikely to panic but weakness will continue in the near-term,' said Dr. VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments. Looking Ahead with Confidence - Avanti Feeds As the aquaculture industry consolidates, Avanti is positioned to capitalize on emerging opportunities. India's aquaculture sector is at an inflection point. Backed by the Government's Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY), the sector is poised to achieve 22 million MT of seafood production by FY26. With infrastructure expansion, inland fisheries support, and rising domestic seafood consumption, Avanti Feeds said it is well placed to ride this wave of opportunity. 'We are entering FY26 with cautious optimism. While macroeconomic uncertainties remain, especially on the trade front, we are equipped with a diversified portfolio, strong financials, worldclass infrastructure, and a deep-rooted culture of excellence,' the company said in its FY25 annual report. The government has responded to this disruption with renewed emphasis on market diversification, exploring opportunities in East Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. As India's aquaculture sector enters a new phase of resilience and reform, efforts are underway to improve disease control, promote sustainable aquaculture practices, adopt digital technologies, and expand into value-added product lines. These transformations are expected to shape the sector's trajectory in the years ahead, sustaining its vital role in the economy, the company said. With favorable domestic policy shifts, increased budgetary support, and growing consumption of seafood and pet food, Avanti is well-positioned for sustainable growth. Long-term global demand for high-protein, responsibly farmed seafood remains strong, and India's competitive edge in aquaculture will continue to support expansion, the company said.
