Why?????
Just kidding! I've been doing it for 20 years and have never regretted it although, I don't think I'd ever receommend it as a career choice to my son-graveyard shifts, little pay for amount of responsibility that you carry, bad environmental working conditions at times, etc.
I think you need to have quite the love of aviation, aircraft, and working with your hands to enjoy it.
I don't know how the aviation industry is in New Zealand compared to here in the U.S. Things might be a lot better down there.
I wish you well in your endeavor, you're in for a fun ride at times with a few mundane times thrown in at times as well.
Good luck.
