Ko te tautohetohe rīhi-hoko he mea e piri ana ki te moni i te nuinga o te wā. Engari ka kātia hoki e te hoko ngā huarahi huri noa i a koe mō ngā tau — anei te huarahi e tika ana kia whakahangai te wāhi i taua whakatau.
Tata ki te katoa o ngā tautohetohe rīhi-hoko e pā ana ki te moni: te mōkete tērā te rīhi, ngā pāpātanga, ngā moni whakatū, mēnā rānei ka "maka moni" koe. He hira ēnei. Engari ka waiho e rātou tētahi mea kāore e mau i ngā tepu tātai — ehara i te mea ka here noa te hoko i a koe ki tētahi whare, engari ki tōna taiao anō, mō ngā tau, i tētahi āhua kāore te rīhi e mahi ai. Ko te whakataurite tika i te wāhi ka huri i te whakatau.
Ko te āhuatanga kāore i te tino whakanuitia o te rīhi, ko te putanga. Mēnā ka kitea he ngangahau ake, he iti ake te whakaraerae, kāore rānei mō koe te tāone kāri — i te huri kino rānei — ka taea e koe te wehe atu i te mutunga o te wā rīhi. Ka taea e te rīhi te whakamātau i te rohe mā tō oranga pono kaua mā ētahi tirohanga noa: te haerenga pono, te huarahi i te 11 karaka pō, te takurua me te raumati anō. He uara pono tō taua ngāwari, ā, he nui rawa i te wā he iti rawa tō mōhio ki te rohe.
Ina hoko koe, ka riro i a koe he mea nui ake i ngā pakitara e whā. Ka riro i a koe te huarahi i waho, te ara rererangi i runga, te ara o te rohe, me te taiao kāore e taea e koe te whakahou — mō te wā katoa e mau ai koe, ā, mō te tangata ka hoko atu ai koe. Ka taea e koe te huri i te kīhini; kāore e taea e koe te neke i te huarahi tere, te tāpiri i tētahi tūnga, te whakakore rānei i tētahi mānia waipuke. Ko ngā wāhanga o te kāinga e mau tonu ana, koinā tonu ngā wāhanga ka whakatau te wāhi, koirā te take e tika ana kia nui ake te aro ina hoko koe i te wā e rīhi ana.
Ka mau tonu te kōrero tawhito a te kaihoko whare mō "te whare kino rawa i runga i te huarahi pai rawa" nā te mea he pono te nuinga: ka taea e koe te whakapai i te whare, engari ka whakatau te wāhi i te tuanui. Ko ngā tohu oranga uaua ki te tinihanga — te waka pai, ngā toa o ia rā taea-te-hīkoi, te marino, te wāhi kākāriki, te huarahi haumaru me te tiaki — ka pupuri hoki i te uara pai rawa, nā te mea koinā tonu ngā mea ka whakataurite hoki e te kaihoko whai muri. Ko te hoko i tētahi wāhi tino pai he parenga; ko te hoko i tētahi whare ātaahua i tētahi wāhi whai raru, he onoke noa.
He huarahi whaihua hei whakatau: ko te iti o tō mārama ki te rohe, ko te nui ake o te whakamana a te rīhi i a ia ake.
Ko te rīhi me te hoko, ehara noa i ngā huarahi e rua hei utu mō tētahi kāinga — he rua rerekē ēnei uaua mō te wāhi. Rīhitia ina hiahia koe ki te rangatiratanga kia hē; hokona ina tino pai te taiao kia noho koa koe ki roto. Ahakoa pēhea, arotakehia te wāhi mā te aro rite ki tō arotake i te pūtea, mā te whakamahi i te arotake tāone kāri katoa.
