    The number of people struggling financially is really starting to increase. Nearly 12% of Kiwis are currently behind on their debt repayments: personal loans, credit cards, BNPL etc. For some reason, it can be really hard for us Kiwis to ask for help. It seems to be something we’ve mastered - not asking for help. A lot of people will feel helpless or even embarrassed about their debt levels, so they will simply bury their heads in the sand. We know deep down that this isn’t a solution. So here is where to turn to...

  • I review some UBS wealth data that analyses the percentage of people in different brackets of wealth all around the world. You might be surprised how wealthy you are compared to other people in the world. Or what it takes to have $1,000,000 of wealth.

  • One of the positives to this tough economy is that people are learning a lot more about money and finance than they normally would. They are having to pay attention. That’s a huge win if you ask me. But I would call that a positive! As we have moved from the boom to the bust part of the cycle, we have been forced to learn. I asked the KTC community what they were learning through this tough economy...

  • ‘What are your thoughts’...My response is often not to provide my thoughts but to ask them the same question back. ‘Well, what are your thoughts?’. Because you must have some. And they are valuable. You are capable of making decisions. Before you ask others for their thoughts, think about these questions...

    Lately, we’ve been talking about prices going up and most people are probably just skimming past it thinking it doesn’t apply too much to them. I’ve put together a practical exercise you can do over the weekend. If you are brave enough, you need to look at EVERY cost in your life. This isn’t fun, but neither is not sleeping or worrying about money, so get this done.

  • On day 4 we rip into another day at the conference and learn about customer service and what will happen with AI in the coming years. We also have some thoughts about how religion and god are quite important to people here and how that gives people a lot of guidance. Plus the usual 48 tangents, we have definitely forgotten to cover some things, so we will do that on day 5.

  • Today I sit down with a good man who has gone from corporate to financial advice. John has a Master's degree in Finance, so understood the power of compounding wealth over the long-term, and his KiwiSaver was sorted nice and early. But John wanted to do more to help out his community with this knowledge. He spent weekends driving north (4.5 hours) and talking with friends and family about KiwiSaver. This led to the start of Kauri Wealth and now he does it full time. Find out what inspired John to throw away the corporate path and chase a goal of helping more Kiwi make incremental steps toward their finance. This is an inspirational goodie!


    Kauri Wealth has a simple mission: to empower individuals with a deep understanding of KiwiSaver's significance, guiding them towards optimal fund selection and unlocking its potential to enhance lives.

  • It’s OK to want to make more money. There, someone gave you permission. We teach people that ‘money doesn’t buy happiness’. If we taught people how to be more in control of their income, there may just be a lot more happier people right now. I think a lot of people have been conditioned to be told that earning more is greedy, selfish, ‘you’re all about the money’, recently I was told I am supporting failing ‘capitalism and consumerism’. You have no doubt been told by someone that wanting more is bad. You evil bastard. But it’s ok. Why? Let's find out why!
