Matt Heath: Most of your opinions are a waste of time 7 Mar, 2021 05:00 PM 4 minutes to read Spend your brainpower wisely. Photo / 123RF OPINION: Most of your opinions are a waste of time. Every day we New Zealanders are blasted with new issues. Housing, breaching, the Australian Isis bride. Forming opinions and having your say on each fresh topic is hard work. It's time-consuming. That's why I try not to hold any views. I don't get involved unless I have to. For example, I have no opinion on Oprah's two-hour interview with Harry and Meghan. That couple has a strange effect on people. Some become aggravated at their mere mention. They don't like Meghan, they worry about Harry, they think the whole thing is a vacuous money-making scam. Others think there is a right-wing plot against them. I don't care either way. I don't know them. They have no direct effect on my life. I'd rather spend that time and energy hanging with my kids.
