Keep The Change

Recently, I asked people IF THEY WANTED TO INVEST BUT HAVEN’T YET, how come. Sorry I had to yell and use bold so that you read that question properly. Before I summarise what I think the key 3 are, know this: You have TO WANT TO invest and that will help get you started. You’re on your own, but the guard rails are up so high that you’re so unlikely to hit a gutter ball long term. Stop aiming for a strike and bowl ya ball! Let's explore!Hey thanks for listening!

Well, it has nearly been a good two years since the Reserve Bank of New Zealand told us that they were going to be engineering a recession so we thought that two years into this recession it was time to take a look and see what people were saying two years ago.Now that we are deep in it, what should we expect from here? What’s happening with business confidence? Will house prices continue to rise? When will rates slide further? Will they print money again?This one won’t be as optimistic as you may HOPE but it’s realistic and that’s what we’ve been the whole way through. Get ready to take more action. When it’s hard, push harder!I have a goal to help 100,000 Kiwis improve their financial literacy.

In the past, earning a six-figure income was a significant milestone, some sort of marker of financial success. But with rising costs and inflation, the purchasing power of $100,000 has decreased. So, setting an arbitrary income goal like "$100,000" might not be the right target anymore. It is believed that about 16% of working Kiwis now earn $100,000 or more. That number will continue to increase. In 2001, that was under 2% of wage and salary earners.Hey thanks for listening!

This pyramid holds the answers to so many of life’s questions. Are you currently at survival status, freedom, or purpose? And more importantly where would you like to be when it comes to your financial situation?. This was eye-opening from our trip to the United States and we sat down to reflect on what it means to us and what we’ve learned from it. We also asked the KTC audience where they are aiming for and where they currently sit on the pyramid. The answers are insightful. We explore questions like what are you aiming for yourself? Why? What would you aim for if you were out of survival?If this one doesn’t get you thinking deeply, we don’t know what will!I have a goal to help 100,000 Kiwis improve their financial literacy.
