NZ Super Fund: Performance, Strategy, and Bitcoin? Ep 427 / Rishab Sethi

The New Zealand government invests through the NZ Super Fund to ensure it can maintain Superannuation payments over the long term. By using a growth style fund consisting of 80% growth assets, and 20% income assets, they aim to grow a pot of money as large as they can to assist with the governments future obligations. Despite debates about eligibility age of government super, income-testing, contribution pauses, and investment strategies, the NZ Super Fund has been performing well since inception, and so I wanted to learn more. I also wanted to know if they would be the first sovereign wealth fund to acquire Bitcoin.Learn more about the NZ Super Fund______________________Take The Home Buyers Blueprint: Get a better home; Get a better mortgage.Sign up to the KiwiSaver Millionaire Roadmap: From 6 figures to 7; Get a Rockstar Retirement!Sign up to New Wealth Foundations here: Personal finance from a wealth-builder's perspective.Thanks to Easy Crypto, New Zealand's most trusted crypto brand and what Darcy Ungaro uses.Book in a free 15-min phone call with Darcy Ungaro (financial adviser)- click on this link.Get SocialSign up to the newsletter!YouTube InstagramTikTok: @theeverydayinvestorwww.nzeverydayinvestor.comInstagramYouTubeDarcy UngaroLinkedInTwitter: @UngaroDarcywww.ungaro.co.nz________________________Affiliate Links!I may receive a financial benefit if you click on these links.HatchSharesiesEasy CryptoSharesight: (Get 5 months free)CMC Markets<a...

The Doing & Making Strategy, Ep 424 / Brian Henry

For some, consistent investing through a retirement fund or buying shares directly is easy. For many more, there's a bit of work involved in mustering up the motivation to start. As someone who hasn't likely taken a straight path there, I'm fairly confident that anyone can invest, and most investment tools will get the job done. What separates those who play with tools from those who actually build, is looking at the plans. It's the strategy that makes everyday investors succeed.

The Bitcoin ETF’s success stems from this principle, making it easier for traditional investors to access and hold Bitcoin through a familiar financial product. Ethereum, on the other hand, is more than just a digital asset; it’s a technology platform that supports various applications, including smart contracts and decentralized finance (DeFi).

The Purpose-Driven, Everyday Investor, Ep 422 Darcy Ungaro

Check out the article referred to in this episode.In this short one I want to talk about why you should consider a purpose-based investment strategy right now, rather than just a goal-based investment strategy. My strong, and growing belief, is that the type of change we’re seeing in the world right now, presents an equal opportunity for loss, and gain. How to get on the right side of what’s coming, and in fact is already here, is determined by what kind of approach we take – a goals-based, or purpose based approach.

Just as rails would have accelerated our pace of life relative to the horse-and-buggy, emerging digital infrastructure promises to get more of our dollars, working at a faster speed.

To choose the best time to lock in your mortgage rate, you need to get three things right:How much will rates change?Which direction will rates go,and when will the rates change.It may seem like a lot of work, but think of the potential reward - if you timed it right at the bottom of the interest rate cycle, you would still be paying less than 3% with almost two years to go.

Peter Schiff: Why Gold Matters So Much Now. Ep 390

There are some who believe that under a gold-backed currency, governments would have to earn money, just like the rest of us do. That means they’d have to learn fast how to be efficient with how they spend, and bring in revenue. To create genuine reform in our government and to pretty much eradicate poverty in the long term, we need to limit the role of government.Here’s the short view of this worldview – if we can fix the money, we fix the world.

NZDD, Social Recovery: 2023 in Review, Ep 387

In New Zealand recently, for example, we’ve seen a new government come to power who’ve decided to restore some of the tax rules that made property investment a viable asset class in the past. We’re also getting much-needed tax cuts, which may offset the pain from inflation for those carrying the biggest load. Our central bank is being given a much more narrow and simplified mandate—focus on inflation. How good is that They'll soon have one job to do – So there’s hope that both the RBNZ and the government will do a better job of dealing with inflation in the future. As investors, this means more stable interest rates. It’s about confidence.

What Happens When You Invest? CHA$ING THE JONE$E$

Chasing the JonesesToday, I really just wanted you to know that no matter what kind of investor you are today, you can become a different investor tomorrow. The results you have today, now matter what they are, likely stem from a set of skills. If you want better or different results, you’re going to need different skills. I believe from the bottom up – micro first, we should be improving as investors all the time by bringing more of who we are to the table. That’s what this podcast series is about. On a Monday I tackle it from the top down, macro first – somewhere in the intersection between what you can control, and what you can’t, sits the opportunity for you to develop the skills you need to get to the next level.In this series, I’m sharing views on wealth building that don’t come from books or social media – they come from real life. From first-time home buyers to retirees and everything in between, if you're balancing the life you have right now with your future life, get closer to the image of success you're chasing. ______________________________________Check out some online courses!Take The Home Buyers Blueprint: Get a better home; Get a better mortgage.Sign up to the KiwiSaver Millionaire Roadmap: From 6 figures to 7; Get a Rockstar Retirement!Sign up to New Wealth Foundations here: Personal finance from a wealth-builder's perspective.A very big thank you to our past, present, and future sponsors!

RBNZ: All Care & No Accountability, Ep 380 Michael Reddell

Unelected, ideological economists using outdated economics have, in my opinion, over the past 3 years set in motion a chain of events that will cost billions to fix. Considering we can’t vote for them, we should be critical of them. Read more here.

The lesson in the boy who cried wolf was for the boy, after all.What if the boy had great, long-distance vision, though? We've just been ignoring someone trying to help us. My guest today is not the boy in the story. He's a cogent voice calling out from the wilderness, warning us the tide's just shifted, and perhaps it's time to prepare.

The Wealth Script We NEED, Ep 378 Oliver Hartwich

Sometimes, it's hard to stay optimistic. Whether you're grappling with personal setbacks or observing the rollercoaster ride that is New Zealand's recent political climate, it can feel like swimming against a rip tide. But remember this—the rest and medication can work, the next big opportunity is just a phone call away, and the world still spins on its axis.

Investing in an Imperfect World, Ep 377 Paul Brownsey

I'm not claiming our investment choices can singlehandedly combat global issues like climate change. How you marry wealth generation with ethical considerations remains deeply personal, and that's your job, not the job of a fund manager, KiwiSaver provider, or financial adviser. Yet, consider this: investing in genuine values might, in the long run, bear richer fruits. The global financial stream is tilting, albeit slowly, towards appreciating the nuances of environmental, social, and governance aspects. Paul Brownsey, CIO of Pathfinder, a prominent New Zealand-based fund manager, talked to me recently in a podcast episode, shedding light on how these values play out in today's investment world.

Future-Proof Portfolios, Ep 375 Michael Nadeau

To manage investment risk, there’s a few strategies we can employ – diversification, where our money’s divided up into cash, fixed interest or bonds, property, and shares ensures not all of our eggs are in one basket. If one part does poorly, hopefully another part performs better. Sure you sacrifice some potential gains through concentration, but at least with diversification, your money still has a chance to grow. Increasing our timeframe is another way to manage investment risk– property and shares are good examples of how in the short term, you may get great, or terrible returns, but over the longer term it’s often the best places to put your money. There are risks we don’t manage very well in the investment world though, and this is more my opinion here than a mainstream view. I’m concerned about custody risk for example, or the fact that whether it’s our online sharebroker, or even our managed funds, these investments aren’t held directly – they’re held on our behalf. The likelihood of there being an actual problem here is low – perhaps as low as the 1 in 100 year flooding risk we had last summer, yet it’s still something I wonder about – what if everyone tries to cash in their investments all at once, or there’s some other systemic risk we never saw coming. The more links in the chain there are, the less we’re connected to what we own.

Don't Fear the Greenwash! Ep 373

Investing in companies isn't just a moral choice; it's a strategic one. You're steering your capital toward sectors that are poised to benefit from a surge of money coming into this space from fund managers and government initiatives. Even if you’re determined to invest in a way that cures the planet, just keep this in mind: To fix the world, we need to fix the money first. Hating the rich is no way to help the poor, and saving the climate should be about saving people.______________________________________Check out some online courses!Sign up to the KiwiSaver Millionaire Roadmap: This one's free!Sign up to New Wealth Foundations here: Personal finance from a wealth-builder's perspective.A very big thank you to our past, present, and future sponsors!

We didn’t recognise this saviour at first, in fact, most of us tried to kill him too. The highest performing investment of all time was crucified by mainstream media and traditional finance - But it’s still alive.

The Markets are Stuffed? / News of the Money-World Ep 67

When things aren't quite right in the world, and in the world of investing in particular, it's quite helpful to be able to talk about it.Fund managers, advisers, regulators—actually, pretty much the entire industry—have no incentive to sound the alarm bell. Further, anyone who does sound the alarm could cause harm just as badly as someone who doesn't. Property and equity markets may not have priced in the reality that interest rates could stay elevated for longer, or even rise. What this means is that the 'value' of all we own could go down further. In addition, and possibly more concerning, is the fact that as interest rates rise, the system itself is at risk.___________________News of the Money-World!

How Fixing Money Can Transform Our World, Ep 340 Cody Ellingham

Draw a line from one side of the page to the other, and place a mark somewhere along that spectrum from the far left, where everything’s going to return to normal again soon. Russia will crawl back into their hole, China will scale back it’s tough talk, and the US will learn how to take the lead again. Interest rates will fall and house prices will stabilise. On the right, however, we have full state control of our entire financial system, with everything we do and say linked to our ability to buy and sell. Subject to where you feel the world is going, not where you want it to go, you may wish to invest in a portfolio or strategy that is in line with that mark.

Regulatory Rumbles / News of the Money-World Ep 65

Too much regulation and innovation is snuffed out - too little, and people lose money. Still, when it's central planners and incumbents who ultimately are driving the push towards MORE regulation....well forgive my cynism.Personally, I want to be certain that in some parts of the playground, when investing, things are transparent and I get what's advertised on the tin. In other areas, especially those that are new - well we should let the fools be separated by their money no? It's this activity that brings change, which ultimately leads to better outcomes for consumers.___________________News of the Money-World!

Immunised from Banking Lurgy? Ep 335 David Tripe

The Global Financial Crisis (GFC) left deep scars that have yet to heal. Recent bank failures testify of this – it’s the equivalent of an 80 year old having a fall. Although we have plenty new regulations, the stay of execution’s only postponed until the next trigger comes across an itchy finger.&nbsp; David Tripe, a professor of banking studies with Massey University. Read more of my views on this here. David is a banking specialist with interests in property, economics (focusing on monetary policy), and corporate governance. Before joining Massey University in 1994, he worked for 17 years in New Zealand's banking sector, acquiring diverse experience, and maintains interest in banking developments.Hey!

US Bank Failures / News of the Money-World Ep 62

New to the story around SVG, Silvergate, and Signature, then check out this article!Worrying about a bank run is not advisable, especially considering how well positioned they are now. New Zealand banks fared well in 2008 and from what I hear, they sound super profitable. As an investor, continual market awareness is a small price to pay for insurance against uncertain times though. If you have faith that in the long term, a traditional approach to investing is a prudent strategy (and that’s a pretty safe bet btw!) this really should cause you no concern whatsoever. Having said that, many local commentators often remain silent on a risk we all quietly worry about. There’s a blind spot everyday investors have as a result: No one talks about the risk of systemic failure of the banking system. It’s not a profitable concern for one’s own career in this field, but I believe we should be framing a diversification discussion using old and new, alternative forms of&nbsp;decentralised&nbsp;money.

OCR, Cyclone, Crypto Regulation, Markets / News of the Money-World, Ep 59

What's going to happen now that a cyclone has ripped the guts out of many households, communities, and farms? Clearly some money's going to be spent on fixing things up - will this be inflationary? Should the official cash rate (increased to reduce inflationary pressures) be 'held' [or reduced] to give the vulnerable a hand up, and the economy some life? Most people say no [inflation, remember]. I say yes [remember Christchurch], but Rupert says no.What about regulation in the crypto space? What's led to the recent run-up in price across most digital assets recently? Wasn't this supposed to be highly correlated to tech-stocks?And that leaves the concept we touched on with Michael Every around what could happen next in NZ, if we're ready for it: infinite QE for the government [to spend on infrastructure], and higher rates for longer for the rest of us.

Check out the article and glossary here.First they ignore you, then laugh at you, then fight you, then finally they join you. As painful as it is being early and helping others see the light so to speak, assuming it’s light that you see, being early allows you to spot things and make a move, before the opportunity moves on. While often you’ll hear it’s about time in and not timing, and that’s true by the way, for a small sliver of people a small sliver of the time, being an early adopter can have rewards. &nbsp;Check out Easy Crypto here.Hey!

AI, Personal Finance, and You, Ep 318

Personal finance should never be the destination, but it should be the foundation.&nbsp; How do we get our next investment property, How can we prepare our children financially? How can we pay off our mortgage more quickly? Answer the question is one thing, but making it happen depends on you - you must have a solid foundation. Spending less than you earn, diversifying your income, creating artificial expenses to condition your cashflow, converting your emergency fund into your own insurance company – there’s so much I can get better at, so possibly, this is true for you too. Getting strong foundations in personal finance ensures that that when you invest, you can stay invested for the long term. Hey!

Investing in Whisky and Fine Wine, Ep 315 Maxwell Nee

The more wealthy people there are in the world, the more people there are to drink fine wine and whisky. The more anxiety around the present age there is also, the more likely investing in this space could work as a zig to your zaggers (ie, this type of investment may not drop in value as much during poor economic times – it could even increase). Alternative ‘luxury’ investments could therefore make an interesting portfolio&nbsp;diversifier.

Financial Literacy: Gamified, Ep 314

There was an American civil rights leader called Mortimer Adler that some believe said this: 'I believe that what we become depends on what our fathers teach us at odd moments, when they aren't trying to teach us. We are formed by little scraps of wisdom.'Trapped inside due to poor weather while on holiday with 3 young kids can produce a few scraps of wisdom, among other things. Playing games with kids though, provides a unique learning opportunity I don’t think I’ve every really thought too seriously about.6 months ago I was at a 50th bday party – I got talking with this couple who start telling me about a board game they invented called Hacktics.We must have spoke for half an hour at least me quizzing them on everything I could – Why’d you do it, How did you do it, What’s involved from start to finish?In the end I thought stuff it – let’s bring it up in an episode. I’ll let them explain the rest – I hope you enjoy this one.While not financial advice to suggest this, I hope you seriously consider getting one of these games for kids aged 13 and up. Since recording this one, I’ve played it twice now with my oldest – as far as advancing financial literacy with kids, this game can transfer a lot of knowledge.Hey!

Emerging Markets in 2023 / Kevin Carter, Ep 312

Kevin Carter is the founder &amp; CIO of EMQQ, an emerging markets internet &amp; ecommerce index. Kevin’s a diehard value investor but is also a believer in indexing having partnered with Princeton Economist Dr. Burton Malkiel for over two decades focusing on China/Emerging Markets. The three big megatrends of consumption, smartphones and the internet, make emerging markets an intriguing idea – we perhaps can’t see it so clearly living in a developed economy, but as the general standard of living continues to improve globally, there’s a massive opportunity. There’s of course massive risks too. For one, just because an economy’s got a lot going for it, doesn’t make their markets a sure fire bet.Please note I am a small investor in this fund.You can learn more about EMQQ here: https://emqqglobal.com/Hey!

Higher-Powered Wealth / Ashley Church, Ep 311

Want to hear more on today's topic? Let me know: Ask me anything, suggest a topic!Ashley Church believes that before he started actually living out his Christian life, while he earnt good money, he was always in debt, and could never keep any money. To the extent that he’s been successful today, he believes that it’s Gods hand on his life.You can perhaps have different views than this, but when someone makes a claim like this for their own life, maybe there’s something in this.In the context of the previous couple weeks, you don’t have to be a fan of baby Jesus in the manger to realise as a society we’ve drifted miles away from the values that the builders of our current world would have taken a lot more seriously. I don’t think Ashley would go so far as to suggest that all left-wing voters are Satanists though, but equally, many on the right likely don’t have any personal experiences with the origin of true conservative values and ideals.Note: the second episode in this trilogy was taken down from YouTube twice.

New Wealth Order / Ashley Church Ep 309

Welcome to the New Wealth Order where you can still own something and be perfectly happy. What’s the name of the game? Maximise your income, keep a lid on your expenses, then swipe away the leftover surplus - invest in a way that makes sense to you. Repay your mortgage or invest? Most wealthy people do a little of both. If we keep on investing though – something really awesome seems to happen - After a while ( usually quite a while), what you own, increases in value at an exponential rate. The practice of growing wealth, and having wealth, are good states to be in. So if you’re managing to stay somewhat happy along the way to retirement all while doing no harm – then fantastic I say. In fact, the world full of others actively pursuing something better, just like you. Today, well known property commentator Ashley Church joins me to discuss some of the socio-political and somewhat economic paradigms that are trying to shift into a new order of sorts. I want to know how to invest for the new world, so if you’re wondering why I’m going here today, it’s because I think there’s some important to learn.Hey!

Property Market in Serious Condition / News of the Money-World Ep 57

The OCR increase of 0.75% may very much be required in order to save us from inflation. The property market may not be able to sustain price levels due not just to the bit of our RBNZ, but also their bark. Our central bank is determined to throw overboard anything it needs to in this battle, including the property market but ultimately, the economy. Whatever it takes to to maintain their credibility and retain our confidence, in their ability to stabilize the system after their jelly fish monetary intervention in the last couple years.___________________News of the Money-World!

TGIF, Ep 306

How to build new wealth for the new world, step one:Get a source of income which is greater than your expenses / Spend every dollar you make with intention, and on purpose according to a plan / Get rid of consumer finance tackling the highest payments first , save 3-6 months of your income as a self-insurance fund, and then start investing. Initially it may be for a deposit on your first home, then, when you do get property, hit up some managed funds and individual shares too if you can. Get the basics done right first. Just don’t stay in the basics forever. Step two: Investing in precious metals like gold, especially physical gold, is an alternative way to build wealth for a version of the future we may one day see.Hey!

Precious Metals: For Wealth, Ep 304

For thousands and thousands of years we’ve used gold as money. At some stage, whether part of the role out of CBDC’s (Central Bank Digital Currency) or something else, odds are high gold may form the base of a new global reserve currency. Russia, China and others are working on a new currency to trade with, and central banks are gobbling up new supply of gold at a rate not seen since 1967. It could be tempting to think gold will spike in value denominated in USD, but you also have to consider what value the USD has in this scenario too. Getting the ‘what’, the ‘how’ and the ‘when' right, are all needed for this to be a good speculative bet. I'd be cautious here. There’s no guarantee in that future there would even be a marketplace for gold outside of central banks. So is gold going to be useful here for when the train runs out of track? Rich Elliott and Chris Howard are my special guests today, from MyGold.Hey!

Michael Every: Mercantilism And The New Order, Ep 298

Michael Every joins me in this episode. He's the global strategist for Rabobank.Today I've learnt A LOT from this discussion, including why Central Banks worldwide have taken a keen interest in the environment, and Central Bank Digital Currencies&nbsp;recently.Programmable currency can ensure capital and resource is directed towards green infrastructure projects. Assuming the currency is linked to a common objective of a large trading block (say Europe, North America, Australia and NZ?), you now have an idea of what could make a new base for a common currency.A CBDC backed by carbon? It's hard to say if that plays out, but either way it means the shift towards this transformation could come at the cost of producing goods and services for consumption. If the supply side falls, higher interest rates have to beat down consumer demand even further.In other words, under this hypothetical scenario – things get really expensive for you and me, and our standard of living for the first time in a long time, may broadly decline.Still, we'll likely do it for a good cause...CBDC’s. Previously known as a solution looking for a problem, now appear to have a purpose in the green transition. A common digital currency, working towards a common objective of controlling our environment: We've arrived in Oceania about 40 years late._________________News of the Money-World LIVE is happening on the 24th of November.

Breaking Crypto / News of the Money-World Ep 54

So if you do own crypto and more specifically Bitcoin, you may be tempted to throw in thetowel at times – this could be one of them times. I’ve been reminding myself about a couple things on this: Investing 'success' must have a lot to do with our ability to make decisions we can stick too. And the next thing, is that it’s almost always the hands that hold this asset that causes the risk, rarely the asset itself.______________News of the Money-World LIVE is happening on the 24th of November.

Bonds: Wrong Type of Risk, Wrong Time, Ep 296

It's at least a theory or at best, mere speculation, that we're already in a new regime, where bonds don't provide the same value in a balanced portfolio. A lot of things don’t work quite the way they normally would have in the past. I guess what’s good about this for the everyday investor keen to push forward with a bit more understanding - given the amount of change afoot, don't worry if you don't have a degree in this stuff already. You could skip the formal education and to be honest, it may make it easier.Central Banks and/or government, have created so many distortions with their interventions, that multiple patches are starting to rip at the seems. Personally, I can’t believe how far something that that can go on for, before things start to break. Then again, perhaps it’s always been broken, and that’s why it kind of why it works (and will always likely work).Both shares, and bonds have been declining at the same time though. That’s not suppose to happen.Check out the remainder of this article Greg Fleming is Head of Global Diversified Funds with Salt Funds, an Auckland based Investment manager. is https://www.saltfunds.co.nz/Check out the Sorted website for more info on bondsHey!

Was it really a crisis though?

Possibly. Are European's safe now? No necessarily - there's still next winter to think about.Active investors need to watch this, passive investors - not so much. What's the lesson here?

Monetary-Diarrhoea/ News of the Money-World Ep #51

News of the Money-World is a joint show between NZ Everyday Investor and koura KiwiSaver. None of this is financial advice, and remember these opinions don't necessarily contain a full load of truth. Please do your own research.Hey guess what - we're doing an event for all our lovely News of the Money-World audience. We'd love to meet you, feed you, share a drink and have a chat. We'll have 4 speakers, music, and some pretty cool prizes to give away too. It's all happening on the 24th of November.Numbers are pretty limited so if you can do it, BUY TICKETS NOW!FYI: Tickets aren't free, but it's all going to charity anyway. __________________Google tells us that Diarrhoea a condition in which faeces are discharged from the bowels frequently and in a liquid form.Monetary - Diarrhoea is what happens when the global banking system can't keep it in any longer. "a range of symptoms including diarrhoea and vomiting" Google reveals a nuance yet again. Diarrhoea begets more Diarrhoea. As the supply of money rises, the global financial system needs more new money just to keep it together, which in turn, requires more money creation to occur. If not assets, then something else.It's a bit weird how it all works to be honest. But it's probably nothing.Right now, just because interest rates are high and banks are slamming on the breaks. It doesn't mean the money printers been turned off. No no no. It's just facing another direction. War is expensive, re-building's expensive, getting off fossil fuels... phew!Is it possible interest rates will continue to rise and stay elevated for years? I wouldn't bet on it. Inevitably, asset values will once again be the sponge to soak up new currency creation. The largest ponzi-scheme of all time is far too big to fail. It's not over yet, the show must go on.Hey!

Commercial Property Investment Foundations, Ep 290

There are different types of commercial property investment: Direct, syndicated, un-listed, listed, managed funds, and index funds. On top of that, you have various subsets within the commercial property sector, all with their unique set of pro's and con's to consider. For those who seek either the chance to influence value, or a great source of cashflow in retirement, commercial property should be considered.Note this episode is a re-edited version of episode 80, where I had Brandon Wilcox and Jack Revill on to discuss commercial property. Next week I have Carl Burling and Jack Revill on (again) to discuss 'what's next' for commercial property. Investing in un-listed funds of all sorts can be part of a valid investment portfolio. Just like any one of your components [be it property, individual shares, and even cash], you have to accept a set of known, and unknown risks in order to obtain the return you seek. The disclosure rules are a little less prescribed with un-listed companies though. This may increase the odds you haven't had an opportunity to perform due diligence (relative to say, shares in Air NZ for example). Provincia offers un-listed shares in a commercial property fund, and they're currently seeking funds. Please do your own due diligence and seek advice from an accountant, lawyer, or financial adviser, if you require sign-off for becoming an 'eligible' investor (as per the following rules).Hey!

SOUND Money for an UNSOUND World / Aditya Das, Ep. 288

We're living in very UNSOUND times. Geo-politically, but also financially this is true right now. In order to build new wealth for the new world, we need to consider new containers for this wealth. Ethereum, and other Web-3 digital assets MAY provide an option for open-minded everyday investor. There are 3 things we can do now, to ensure we’re building wealth the new world at a rate which is greater than the effects of inflation, or currency debasement:1 – We can invest more2 – We can take higher risk3 – Or we can keep an open mindI’ve met few who do all three. It’s not uncommon to see some invest a lot, or take a lot of risk, often without realising it, but it’s the open mind bit that's rare – quite clearly the world’s going through some sort of phase transition right now, yet out minds are still in yesterdays thinking in so many areas. Ethereum is one of the digital assets that I personally hold in my own portfolio. I don't personally, or professionally endorse more than a relatively small allocation to this high risk, yet promising new asset class. Take care to conduct your own due diligence and (ideally) seek advice from a financial adviser prior to making any serious investment in crypto-currencies.My guest today is Aditya Das, Blockchain Researcher and Investment Analyst with Brave New Coin.

When this happens, our homes, our next home, share portfolio, managed funds, property or crypto portfolio – rising interest rates apply downward pressure on their value.Today, my guest Jarrod Kerr, chief economist at Kiwibank talks to me about some of the signs and symptoms of an economic sickness that households, the economy, and the worldwide economy is going through right now. If we can understand the environment our property lives in a bit more, we should have a clearer picture on what comes next for house prices. Hey!

Recently, I was invited on to another podcast to share a bit of my journey in becoming afinancial adviser. It’s my journey in building a financial advice business while simultaneously trying to break the mold of how it’s done. Unless you’re a financial adviser, you wouldn’t have heard of the Kiwi Adviser Network podcast – but if you are, or you’re thinking of getting into this industry, I highly recommend it – it’s called the KAN podcast.The host, is Warwick Slow. He’s not only a BDM for one of the newest mortgage aggregation businesses in the country, but he’s also weekend announcer on The Edge radio station. Hence the silky smooth radio voice.Proof that financial advice leads to better outcomes. Register for the Crypto Curious LIVE Event!Hey!

How Do We Invest Now THIS Just Happened?! Ep. 280

Here’s some more questions to consider about today's episode.What’s really bad inflation going to do to us over the next couple years? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What happens if war gets out of control, or spreads to areas far closer to home? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What happens when government and tech companies get too big and start making decisions you didn’t believe they had the authority to make?

Risk and Reward: Naomi Ballantyne, Ep 278

I wonder if it's soon possible that investment returns, especially when adjusted for inflation, could be lower for much longer in the future world. How do we get better than average returns then? We take higher levels of risk, invest more, use less diversification and more leverage, and invest in what many consider speculative bets, like Bitcoin.If we adopt a higher risk strategy though, we have to be able to endure all sorts fear. Market downturns, job losses, relationship break downs, war and civil unrest – whatever comes next, If you’re wealth is tied up in property, or you’re investing in volatile investments that need time to cook, this is why you need personal insurance. All insurance is, are contracts that you enter into where you trade premiums, for the right to receive a possible balloon payment, or a series of monthly payments, or the reimbursement of medical costs, if certain events occur.If you’re stuffed, munted, or set back in some other nasty way, insurance can assist in helping clean up the money mess.

Governmentbank - Is the Kiwibank Sale Doomed to Fail? News of the Money-World Ep 44

Today, we're having a general chat about private, public, and mixed models of ownership. What are the pro's and con's of each model, and what are the opportunities for investors when some public assets get into private hands. What are some of the dangers when it goes the other way around?Lastly, I don't think anyone can say this is a commercially clever move. But it begs the question: Why when the profits are 1/10th of what just one bank in NZ makes (ASB), is it so important that $2.1bn of our taxes need to be spent on this (especially during this time!). I can own shares in the holding company of some of other banks (I do in fact!), but not Kiwibank. Everyday Kiwi's don't own Kiwibank - the government does.Hey!

Investing is for everyone, but often make the biggest difference in the hands of those who've come the furthest. A little can go a long way when it comes to financial literacy.

Financial Literacy: Are We Heading The Wrong Way? Ep 274

I thought we were doing so well when it came to growing money-smarts in NZ, so when I read the report Money and You: Investing in Volatile Times, I was really surprised to see we’ve taken a step backwards. This year, relative to last year, less NZ’ers understand the relationship between risk and return, how different types of investments have different risk profiles, and how current investment themes or trends may affect performance.Perhaps the growth in money smarts I thought I was witnessing over the last 2 yearsespecially, was more a symptom of an exuberant market place, rather than progress made by everyday investors? I’m not happy with this explanation. Richard Klipin, is the chief executive of the FSC (Financial Services Council of NZ), a non-profit member organisation with a vision to grow the financial confidence and wellbeing of New Zealanders.I suspect somewhere between the vector of direct observation, and the data, lies an image of reality. Looks can indeed be deceiving, so every now and then, looking at the data is important. The good thing about how we've potentially taken a step back in this space though, is that you and I have a bit more learning to do together! Hey!

A Passive Income Property Strategy / Ep 270

The 3PF is a new book published by Andrew Malcolm, one of the co-founders of Mortgage HQ, one of NZ's fastest growing mortgage brokerage.I've now read the book and I'd describe it as this: It's a mental framework that simplifies the idea of building passive income through property investment. We're talking a little about some of the core strategies in the first part of this book today. If you're thinking about it, or you already are a property investor who's reliant on a return over time - then GIVE IT TIME. We may not be out of the woods yet with the current property market correction but long term, the odds are high property prices will double in value from here every 7-10 years. So for passive income, we grow first, and then we harvest. Buy property that will appreciate in value at a rate which is higher than your overall holding costs – it’s kind of that simple. 1 to live in, one for long term income, &nbsp;and one to fatten up for the slaughter in 20 years time. While you’re able to fund your life with your income, you do, but all the while you’re growing capital gains that will convert into yield assets later, when passive income, is going to be essential.YouTube Version here: https://youtu.be/TykRGRhwu0U_______________________Hey!

TGIF, Ep 269

For one of the scenarios outlined in this podcast to come to fruition, the US had to be significantly weakened. I believe we witnessed this with the events that unfolded on the 3rd of August (NZT) 2022, where the US pulled out of the opportunity to stand with Taiwan through actions, and not just words. We're living in rather odd times.It appears the US lost a game checkers to China, who's clearly been playing a game of chess.It would be disingenuous to say the least, talking about building wealth without simultaneously talking about protecting it. Change is coming - and there ARE things you can do about it. Ignoring what's happening in the world right now, just because it scares you though, well THAT is a very high risk investment strategy.At the time of recording, I had no idea of the events that were unfolding at the same time, where the US lost a game checkers to China, who's clearly been playing a game of chess.It would be disingenuous to say the least, talking about building wealth without simultaneously talking about protecting it. Change is coming - there ARE things you can do, but ignoring what's happening in the world right now, just because it scares you, is a very high risk investment strategy.While the world is watching what they believe is a kinetic war unfold, elsewhere, the war's just getting started.If you're still investing as if everything's getting back to normal, honestly, that's awesome. If you're investing in such a way where it isn't, even just a little, better still.Further reading:https://forkast.news/china-banned-bitcoin-mining-became-no-2-bitcoin-miner/https://www.statista.com/statistics/267998/countries-with-the-largest-gold-reserves/https://www.npr.org/2022/06/17/1105896419/russia-putin-speech-sanctionshttps://news.bitcoin.com/targeting-the-us-dollars-hegemony-russia-china-and-brics-nations-plan-to-craft-a-new-international-reserve-currency/_______________________Hey!

'SAFE' is Our DANGER Word, Ep 264

Okay, so let’s say I’m talking to you now and you’re someone who’s always excelled, in almost every area of your life. Do you think you can succeed at investing? I think you can, and I think if you think you can too, then you should give it a good go. Now let’s say you do give it a good go - well done, but there's something you should know.Eventually, you may get hit for the first time with a message you'll eventually hear all the time: "Science says you can’t outperform the index, so invest in the S&amp;P 500 or something like that" Well yes it’s right, on average, over the long-term you indeed cannot out-perform average. However, what if average isn’t your thing? What if, for some reason, it can’t be your thing? Well, who says you can't be in the cohort that stretches the average higher? You may be.Statistically you won’t be – but wouldn't it be prudent to at least try? Give it a go and succeed like you have with everything else, or quit before you even try? The choice is yours!_______________________Hey!

Central Bank for the Digital World, Ep 262

When the government or central bank controls the money supply of a nation, they ultimately control the very mechanism by which you and I can store up wealth.In the spirit of building, protecting, and passing on wealth, I think I need to understand this area better.

Do we NEED Bitcoin? Ep 260, Scott McLiver

Bitcoin just like many other traditional investments - isn’t risky, it’s just volatile. In a world where bitcoin hits zero, which is what it means if it’s risky, traditional share portfolios hit zero too. Think about it: it doesn’t matter how valuable an investment is, if the dollars denominating it could self-destruct. The more volatility, the higher the long-term returns. If that’s true for tech-stocks, it’s true for bitcoin. &nbsp;In the world exactly like what’s being served up today, everyday investors can now diversify into something not denominated in the same currency as their other investments.If holding bitcoin really was about making more traditional money one day, I wouldn’t be a fan of it. My mainstream investments are for mainstream returns.You should consider bitcoin if you believe there’s a possibility traditional stores of value may not endure for your investing timeframe.Scott McLiver is a partner within the private business team at PwC and has a strong interest in blockchain technology as well as digital assets. _______________________Hey!

What are swap rates saying right now? News of the Money-World, Ep 36

If I recall an opinion I heard a few years back correctly: I know we're supposed to believe the official narrative here, but debt markets are where we go on occasions such as this for the real source of truth. Right now, there's a growing cohort starting to waiver in their belief that the Fed, and by extension, other central banks around the world, actually have this under control. In some ways, they've lost control already. In other ways, the blunt edge of their full suite of 'tools' are yet to fully bite.You can find the PDS on the [now expired] offer link found in the video version of today: https://youtu.be/Vp1-ugGM4As________________________________Welcome to a bonus series, in partnership with koura Wealth, your digital KiwiSaver provider.

The Courageous Everyday Investor, Ep 258

Unless your retirement plan is receiving an inheritance, you know that if you don't make this investing thing work, there's no plan b. Sure you could take a gamble with average and hope it'll be enough, but what if the future's going to be different? What if it's harder for a season to generate a meaningful return for a while? Well, you need to be an excellent investor.While it’s easy say and hard to do, being excellent doesn’t need to be complicated: Just keep getting better at what you’re doing, then wait for the voices saying you can’t, to gradually fade away. Job done – you're officially most excellent!Good is awesome when you've come from worse. It's a bit discouraging when the goal is to be safe though.The rewards for safety are average returns.The rewards for being courageous?It's the satisfaction knowing that when you faced 'resistance', you leaned into it, and you prevailed.In a world increasingly petrified of everything, making safety the primary investment objective could be one of the dumbest things to aim at.Maybe we learn excellence with sport, business, public speaking, leadership, whatever – but can we apply the same principles of pushing through to the world of investing too?In this episode with Cole Hauptfuhrer from www.findfatfish.com, we’re going to talk about being excellent at picking individual stocks.Wait a minute! You can’t outperform the market!You’ve seen the slides and stats (at events sponsored by the passive fund managers) - it’s hard and often impossible to beat the average, especially consistently through time.So in other words don’t bother even trying – you don’t want to gamble your retirement trying to prove statistics wrong do you? Perhaps it’s true that the most efficient way to get a compounding return from the market over time is through low cost managed funds though.It’s efficient, but is it best? More importantly, is it best for you?Cole Hauptfuhrer is not a financial adviser, he doesn't handle 'client money', and he does not provide an investment recommendation. For more information, please check out www.findfatfish.comAsk me anything, suggest a topic, or a guest!_______________________Hey!

TGIF, Ep 257

It's a recurrent nightmare of mine, that somehow, some time in the future, everyday investors will lose access to their pots of wealth. It's scary, but there's a risk we're taking more now, than we used to, with our wealth - custody risk. We're seeing this play out in the crypto-ecosystem now. Some would suggest this is why you stay away from crypto. Really? Be on high alert here for kettles calling pots black here. Is it not even remotely possible that what's happening in the trustless space, could also unfold in the 'trusted' trad-fi (traditional finance) community?Custody risk has been amplified more and more over time, where our assets are held on our behalf by someone else (often through technology platforms). For the most part, our trust is well justified. These are well worn rails which relying on principals we've trusted for quite some time - there's no need to panic. It's just something to consider. To suggest everyday investors can never lose from a failure in modern day custody practices though? Pure hubris. We know what happens after pride sets in, just look at crypto, it shows us our future.In crypto, as with most things, flaws in the system cause blow outs fast - they can't be papered over.Today, I'm sharing my story of how I recently lost some of my investments through a platform I thought I could trust. I made a mistake in a way, but now I wonder if the risk I didn't consider carefully enough here, exists elsewhere also. Am I paranoid, or just seeing something in advance?Here is the link referred to in this episode: https://celsius.network/_______________________Hey!

Michael Reddell / RBNZ: You got this? Ep 256

If you're keen to build new wealth in the new world we're heading into, I think we should be talking more about the rules of the game?Today, I'm having a conversation with someone extremely well qualified in the area of central banking.Michael Reddell has spent over 30 years doing economic analysis and policy advice at various places including our very own Reserve Bank, where he ran a number of areas, including Head of Financial Markets, he was responsible for monetary policy implementation, foreign reserves management, and the analysis of financial system risks.I’m wondering if separation between the RBNZ and our government, is only the starting point for anyone curious about what's going on with the people behind the green curtain. What if the RBNZ is effectively just a branch of a form of unelected government that’s engaged in a type of currency war hidden in plain sight which flies straight over most of our heads?Note: The opinions expressed in today's introduction are designed to get you to think - I cannot say these are the views shared by my guest and to be honest, I'm not sure these views are all that well informed yet either.Ask me anything, suggest a topic, or a guest!_______________________Hey!

TGIF, Ep 255

"Hi Darcy, loving the pod, and especially how you have a somewhat contrarian view of things. I think this might be a common issue amongst your listeners. My 19th year old university student son has about $30k saved up currently. He has a part job and lives on the smell of an oily rag.... he has KS also, roughly $8k last look. He wants to buy a house/rental asap after graduating. He is on target for double major in Chem/Physics so no dunce. We are property investors too. Have been putting about $20k on term deposit and rolling over.....very hesitant to even put it into KS due to volatility and short 2/3 time frame...Whilst realizing inflation is eroding capital.....any thoughts on this, thanks"Rachel ColemanAsk me anything, suggest a topic, or a guest!I’m really excited for this one today, because this episode is inspired by one of you recently, who took the time to ask a question by visiting the show notes and clicking on the sentence above.

Property: Catching Falling Knives Anyone? Ep 253

The CCCFA and the sharp spike in interest rates were the last two nails in the coffin of a series of moves initiated by both the Government and the Reserve Bank of NZ. Although it's a baseless allegation to suggest a piece of legislation was specifically designed to bring down the property market, there are two things to point out:1 - It's far easier to crash an economy than to build it up and,2 - secondly, they did say they were going to do this.Rupert Gough from https://mortgagelab.co.nz/contact-us/ is my very special host today and really, we're just shooting the breeze and speculating around what comes next with the property market.Ask me anything, suggest a topic, or a guest!_______________________Hey!

The Death of Traditional Investing? / News of the Money-World Ep #33

Rules of the thumbs, tips and tricks - Is there really some form of hard-core religious dogma around investing we need to adhere to? No!

Making Money Go Further, Ep 247

Ask me anything, suggest a topic, or a guest!Tom Hartmann, personal finance lead with the Retirement Commission. Check out the article mentioned in today's show!The best analogy I can think of to describe the relationship between managing personal finances well and investing, is found in Hybrid vehicles- A hybrid car uses an internal combustion engine, an electric motor, and a small battery pack. When the engines going, it sends power to the wheels and also charges the battery, which in turn powers the electric motor to provide an additional power boost, or short range electric only driving. When the car slows down, the forward momentum no longer required is converted into energy stored in the battery system – so the surplus energy harvested is re-used another time. Hybrid vehicles go further with the same amount of fuel than normal cars with a gas engine only, because they’re efficient.Still want to hear more from Tom Hartmann?

TGIF, Ep 246

Ask me anything, suggest a topic, or a guest!Central banks and governments have to create inflation, to protect the function of the current financial system. if they don’t, in the short term, it would create an absolute disaster that makes the pandemic appear a cake walk. You can take a conspiratorial lens on this if you like too of course, where there’s nefarious globalists trying to concentrate their power ushering in a new global order and common worldwide currency – but I don’t think you need to. The explanations still works if you can understand most influencers in the political realms thrive off incompetency. Personally, I can see a 'tick-shaped' recovery here with respect to property and the darker it becomes with the economy, the more whiplash some may experience when the re-bound occurs. Unless there's a qualitative and fundamental shift to how the current financial system works not just in NZ but in the rest of the world, we've already seen the playbook here. Once inflation seems like it may subside, we know what the RBNZ will do next.The question is - which side of this theory do you want to stand on?_______________________Hey!

NZ Housing Market Wobbles / News of the Money-World Ep #32

Ask me anything, suggest a topic, or a guest!So where to from here with NZ property in 2022?Personally, I wouldn't want to be dependent on rising house values in the next 1-3 years. This would be of paramount concern if I owned a new-build investment property in a brand new subdivision, some apartments/terraced housing, and property in 'derivative' cities (or towns, where prices move as a function of the direction of price movement in Auckland).Selling into fear (like right now) is no longer an option for many everyday investors - getting a plan in place to weather a short-term interest rate storm, now that's helpful.Personally, I can see a 'tick-shaped' recovery here with respect to property and the darker it becomes with the economy, the more whiplash some may experience when the re-bound occurs. Unless there's a qualitative and fundamental shift to how the current financial system works not just in NZ but in the rest of the world, we've already seen the playbook here.

Building Wealth in NZ (Fast Lane, Slow Lane, No Lane) PART TWO/ Ep 244

Today, it’s all about building wealth in NZ – not the wealth that’s just for you me though/ This is a wealth that belongs to all of us. I know it sounds like a slogan coming off the back of a 3-way between me, the Maori Party and the Greens, if we’re not trying to restore the relationship that our indigenous people have had with their land, the land and the people may always suffer. If we’re building wealth in NZ, we have to do it for all of NZ. Not in a stinky sort of communist kind of way. Greg Hutana is services Manager at Gorilla Technology, and part of the Maori Initiatives team, a not for Profit Organisation : https://maoriinitiatives.org/Tahei Simpson([email protected]) is a financial advisor specialising in residential mortgages. Her passion is to help Kiwis navigate their way through the mortgage application process and provide them with the tools and knowledge to smash their mortgage and retire financially free. She created and hosted the New Zealand property television series On The Ladder, and is an accredited facilitator with the Sorted Kainga Ora financial capability programme. Far removed from her background in classical ballet, performance piano and acting, today Tahei is a volunteer board member and team manager at Auckland City Basketball, and an advocate for safeguarding kids in sport. Tahei has been based mostly in Mt Eden for 20 years, and with technology is able to service clients all over New Zealand and overseas.Today at the end of the episode I'm talking about being charitable, and giving a regular amount to registered charities.

Terra - Luna, 'Stable coin' disaster/ News of the Money-World Ep #31

Terra and Luna comprised of a sophisticated 'stable coin' that relied on independent market participants arbitraging in order to achieve a 'peg', or anchor to the USD. You can read more about it here.Many never believed in an automatic, truly free-market system like this could have ever succeeded. Are they right, or are they only right for now?Time will tell but this is certain - trust has been shaken in the crypto-space and it's either going to get worse (with justifiable regulation now being welcomed in), or it's going to get better (if faith in traditional finance erodes at a faster pace).Special thanks to Paul Quickenden from Easy Crypto for joining Rupert Carlyon and I today on this show.Also, join kōura for a breakdown of their new specialty funds, followed up by a Q &amp; A session hosted by Carley Ellis from Ungaro &amp; Co - this Friday, 20th May at 11:00 AM.

You should have some reasons to invest, or not invest in bitcoin. Today I'd like to help you in some way decide whether or not this is a space you should be playing. Spoiler alert: It's not about price, it's about using new tools to build wealth for the new world. This requires a new lens to view bitcoin for what it really is, but what we feel it's like.*If you use a financial adviser to arrange a KiwiSaver plan, you need to know that a fee will be payable to the adviser from the scheme. In some cases you will pay the fee directly to the adviser via the provider, and in other cases it may be included in the overall fee you pay. This allows you to receive advice independent from the provider at time of set up, and it appoints the adviser to manage your reviews going forward.__________________________Support my work via Papal: https://paypal.me/TheEverydayInvestor?country.x=NZ&amp;locale.x=en_USBecome a supporter on Patreon and help advance the mission of the NZ Everyday Investor!_____________________________________________________Hey!

You don't have to be an extremist, to hold extreme views with bitcoin - in similar way, you don't have to hold extreme views on bitcoin if you simply view it as a good asset to hold.Diversification (at the custody) layer with bitcoin can be incredibly important. While I'd suggest holding bitcoin directly is the way to go for many people, it's not suitable for everyone. This is why I've been so keen to see a provider in NZ take up the challenge of jamming it into KiwiSaver in a way that members control.So yes, you can now allocate some of your koura KiwiSaver scheme towards bitcoin.

Martin Hawes, Ep 238

There’s education, and then there’s learning. Today on the NZ Everyday investor I’m happy to be able to speak with someone who’s been instrumental in providing nourishment to support my own personal learning habit – Martin Hawes. Martin is someone who’s still dedicating his life to learning also, and although he’s no longer a practicing financial adviser, his many books published over the years will continue to feed money-minds after he’s gone. I suspect a lot of his work, both in books but also in the many thousands of his one on one meetings he must have conducted over his career have become core building blocks that many NZ families have built financial independence on.Support my work via Papal: https://paypal.me/TheEverydayInvestor?country.x=NZ&amp;locale.x=en_USBecome a supporter on Patreon and help advance the mission of the NZ Everyday Investor!_____________________________________________________Complete the following survey to have your say on what you want to hear in 2022!Hey!

Inflation: A Thief in the Night? Ep 227

Raising or lowering the interest rates to combat inflation, may soon be a relic of the past. What am I talking about? I believe at some stage quite soon (like in the next 2-5 years), we’re going to see central bank issued digital currencies. If you’d like to check out an episode I did on this with the RBNZ, check out ep 185: https://player.captivate.fm/episode/5aee9607-995f-4ea3-87ed-b7407c69424fCentral bank issued digital currencies or CBDC’s will be a game-changer in so many ways, especially when it comes to targeting inflation. When a centralised authority has the power to influence the spending behavior at the individual level – it then becomes possible to manipulate the price of goods and services at the point of use. Don’t think this is significant? What happens to the property market when interest rates don’t need to move in response to changing economic activity? What happens to share markets when interest rates don’t compete with capital in the same way? The new world requires new strategies to build new wealth.Follow @KiwiEconomics on twitter to see more content from KiwiBank.Jarrod Kerr is the chief economist at KiwiBankCheck out the following article from Invest Now on inflationBecome a supporter on Patreon and help advance the mission of the NZ Everyday Investor!____________________________________________________________Complete the following survey to have your say on what you want to hear in 2022!Hey!

Stuck between a slice of woke-neo-communist barley bread of the far left, and a slice of mixed-nut from the conspiratorial far right, increasingly the middle's being taken over by extremists.It’s okay to imagine a world where your Amazon shares are up a billion %, and shareholders morph into the consumer, the product, the lender and the government. Just don’t back the team that feels there’s a growing chance things could snap back swiftly to the average, in more ways than one. Investing in gold often comes with contrarian viewpoints, but I think it's part of having a balanced perspective on the world we actually live in. I suspect I’m in a small crowd who think this, but I’m of the view you can be a balanced person, while holding contrarian views. Just ensure you hold a few, ideally uncorrelated ones!Become a supporter on Patreon and help advance the mission of the NZ Everyday Investor!____________________________________________________________Complete the following survey to have your say on what you want to hear in 2022!Hey!

While I have to confess I’ve thought about this already, right now the thought of thinking about all that just seems so horribly distasteful in the context of millions of people being displaced and potentially hundreds of thousands being killed. There’s a lot to unpack and in due time I’ll get to it, but for now, I’d really like to encourage you think about the actual people suffering in all this. Forget what it means for you, forget about the politics and the perspectives of so-called experts – just put yourself in the minds of those who are now literally fighting an enemy they likely have not chance in defeating – the courage, the willingness to take arms and resist against an authoritarian like this, is absolutely amazing.Dr Reuben Steff is my guest today.Dr Steff has a PhD in Strategic Studies and a Masters in International Studies (MInSt) from the University of Otago,. He is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Waikato where he teaches courses on International Relations and Global Security.Apart from the books he’s written, he’s done research around (1) strategic vulnerabilities facing New Zealand, (2) US-China competition, (3) New Zealand and US foreign policy, the (4) implications of Artificial Intelligence for the global balance of power and small states, and the (4) intersection between nuclear deterrence theory, ballistic missile defence and the security dilemma.____________________________________________________________So what's next for you?Well, you may want to consider the following... 1 - Write a review on Facebook, or your favorite podcast player2 - To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on...

You've decided perhaps on the ideal portfolio, so why not contribute to everything all at the same time? This makes sense especially, if you're a fan of diversification and not timing the market.Sequential investing on the other hand, is about focusing on building up key elements of your portfolio one after another, ideally starting with the higher risk components first. Given this is a more concentrated strategy which offers little diversification through time (as you're focusing all your investing power in just one area before moving on), it lends itself to smaller, satellite components of your portfolio.Watch the video referred to in today's podcasts here._______________________________________________________So what's next for you?Well, you may want to consider the following...1 - Write a review on Facebook, or your favorite podcast player2 - To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on Youtube: 3 - Sign up to our newsletter here4 - Tell me more about yourself here, and have your say on what you'd like to hear more of in 2022!Please ensure that you act independently from any of the content provided in these episodes - it should not be considered personalised financial advice for you.

In 2021, we saw how the beneficiaries of loose monetary policy – property owners specifically, were turned against, as if they themselves were responsible for the cheap and abundant credit and rising inequality the reserve bank and government created. In 2022, you’ll see the new enemy is now medium sized business owners – who, in the midst of inflation we haven’t seen in decades, rush to increase prices yet resist requested pay increases from employees. Let’s be clear though – when you hear about this – it’s just inflation – and it comes about when there’s too much money chasing too few goods and services – it’s not caused by greedy business owners. Economics will yield to politics for only so long but For the benefit of all NZ we need to defend the pillars of the economy because in 2022, they’ll come under attack again, and sadly the attack will come from those with no skin in the game, and zero accountability.The good news though, - the scarier things get out there, the better it is for those who run against the tide – those who bet against the herd. When there’s greed, be fearful, when there’s fear, be bold – there may be further subtle shades of this phrase revealed in 2022 – But There’s a strategy here for the everyday investor like you and me. __________________________________________________________________So what's next for you?Well, you may want to consider the following...1 - Write a review on Facebook, or your favorite podcast player2 - Complete this survey!

Democratising Debt - Part 2, Will Remor, Ep 209

Blockchain what?! There’s a short video I’ve done on this topic if you want to get an injection of knowledge around this fast: https://youtu.be/i5bWkSsLmfc) . Democratising debt - what's the big deal? How this will happen (ie, through the use of Non-Fungible Tokens) and what this means for you and me is quite something, given the size of debt markets internationally.Investing in a debt-instruments like bonds aren’t new -but let’s be honest, it’s not that sexy. I think we’re bringing sexy back with today's episode just quietly.Like today's topic, investing in crypto involves so much more than waiting for the price to go up. There’s a platform I use to earn yield from some of my crypto-assets – it’s called Celsius (and here's an affiliate link if you want to support the show https://celsiusnetwork.app.link/191578f83e I'm currently earning earn 5.35% on my Ethereum, which is payable in Ethereum. Now from a risk point of view, we’re not comparing apples and apples here with a term deposit so please don't look at this as a low risk investment option but it paints a picture. A lot of decentralised finance appears to the outsider to me mere speculation - but once you accept it for what it is, you can see just how disruptive this is going to get. Already I can make this choice: Invest in a term deposit and earn maybe 2% but then I'm left with dollars that were worth far more when I started saving them. – the interest rate is rubbish and my dollars are depreciating. On Celsius, I’m getting 5.35%, and the asset saved, in this case Ethereum,  has increased by around 6 times this year alone. No it’s not perfect and it’s not without risk, but it’s part of the same future we’re talking about today.Hey!

It limits your downside at the same time.Today, what about property? Many Kiwi's likely view this as their core component, but considering the above, does it hit all the criteria?This was the last News of the Money-World for 2021 - hope you enjoyed it - see you all in 2022So what's next for you?Well, you may want to consider the following...1 - Write a review on Facebook, or your favorite podcast player2 - Complete this survey!

Perhaps enough of them doing all the same thing and thinking the same thoughts at the same time perhaps created this present age more than we appreciate - they all left home, got married, popped out a few kids and bought property pretty much all at the same time– they had enough war talk from their parents, let’s live they thought – and they did.&nbsp;So 50 years later, here we are in 2021...

News of the Money-World / Ep 19

A special message to the crypto-curious – Investing or holding Bitcoin isn’t like the other investments you may understand. The standard disclaimer is get some financial advice - here's the problem though...not many advisers are comfortable doing this yet. Two things: If you want financial advice from someone qualified and formally educated in this space, then I'm happy to assist (check out below for ways to make contact). Secondly, if you're a qualified financial adviser who does work in this space, I'm interested in knowing who you are!If you do decide to 'go it alone here', do your own research, and plenty of it! Stick with the mainstream assets and beware of scams or people encouraging you to buy the latest coin you've never heard of. Beware of impersonators also - I will never ask you to send me any crypto-assets.Today's important though - we always wish 'we should of got in ages ago'. If you can, and you've done your due diligence, what's next? 1 - Holding Bitcoin directly is 'simple' and the lowest cost of way of doing it. If you'd like to support the NZ Everyday Investor and you're ready to start, use this affiliate link to get started with Easy Crypto. 2- Gain exposure to the price movement through Bitcoin ETF's (Exchange Traded Funds). Jump on to your Sharesies or Hatch account and do a search for Bitcoin ETF3- Invest in through Vault Digital Funds to gain access to several 'spot' Bitcoin funds on the Invest Now Platform.

The Purpose-Based Investor, Ep 194

Pat Shepherd, from the One Percent Collective, is my special guest today. For many investors, it's important to have a sense of meaning behind the act of investing. Goas are awesome, powerful tools to achieve what you want, but purpose can make the whole think take on another dimension entirely.After you and your own look like they'll be on track for being fine, even before they actually are, I see real value in the act of generosity. It's obvious the benefits to the donee, but to the donor, I think some tangible and measurable benefits could also apply.So here's the challenge - if you can*, donate a percentage of your income to a charity - simple. If you haven't observed an increases in your income after a year or so (after inflation), then consider this challenge a fail if you like - I certainly won't judge you either way! At least have a think about it - Investing shouldn't be about greed and isolationism - ideally it should be about abundance and community. Do you want to create a better country in a way far more efficient than a government could ever create - #getgiving!*check out some rough guidelines here if you're new to any space of generosity or philanthropy:Regular donations are far easier than one-off payments, much like dollar cost averaging with investments can be easier to stick with compared to be lump-sum investments.Only donate an amount that you're able to lose. Don't go into debt to donate!Don't feel bad if you can't do this, but if you've never tried it, I don't think it's harmful to give it a go.Don't forget to that donations to registered charities are tax-deductible!__________________________________________________________________Like what you’ve heard?You can really help with the success of the NZ Everyday Investor by doing the following:1 - Write a review on Facebook, or your favourite podcast player2 - Help support the mission of our show on Patreon by contributing here3 - To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on Youtube: 4- Sign up to our newsletter here6  - Tell your friends!7 - Subscribe!NZ Everyday Investor is on a mission to increase financial literacy and make investing more accessible for the everyday person!Please ensure that you act independently from any of the content provided in these episodes - it should not be considered personalised financial advice for you.

While we've been focusing on rising asset values (property, shares, Bitcoin etc.), I wonder if we've missed the other story here. Part of the return you get from investments, is a form of compensation for the fact your purchasing power fades over time. Sadly, inflation robs those who believe in the power of savings, and transfers wealth to those who take risk. Often those who take risk (hopefully), have a longer investing timeframe. Here, you can see the transfer of wealth from one generation to the next through the conduit of inflation. I think it's interesting anyway!Congrats to the winner of the $50 KiwiSaver credit, care of kōura KiwiSaver!

Family Trusts - What's the Point? Ep 191

Today the topic is Family Trusts. The idea with a family trust is that you now no longer own your own home as an example, the trust does – so if someone ever came after you legally, your assets are in theory, safe and sound behind a type of firewall.Check out another podcast episode around family trusts, which specifically covers off what they are still good for. Mason Lockhart is my guest today – Mason runs a law firm here in Auckland and has a deep understanding of today’s topic. Now if you have a family trust, the lawyer who set up your family trust can, and should be explaining to you the point of your family trust every now and then. Like insurance, you need to be reminded occasionally why you have it, and if things have changed, perhaps your insurance needs to change also. _____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Breaking News / Central Bank Digital Currencies / Ep 185

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand is New Zealand's central bank. It was established in 1934, and although not a government department, has been wholly owned by the government of New Zealand since 1936. Like most central banks, the Reserve Bank is primarily a policy organisation, and exists to do three main things:formulate and implement monetary policy to maintain price stability and support maximum sustainable employment;promote the maintenance of a sound and efficient financial system; andmeet the currency needs of the public.So, why should you care about this topic. Well if you care for a chance to grow wealth in traditional markets, you’ll need financial stability. It’s hard to make a plan with your investing without knowing the returns and the risks. Between now and when you’re ready to spend the resource you’re trying to grow now, you need to know some things will never change. Today, you’ll hear how Central Banks around the world have been looking into this space of CBDC’s for quite some time. There’s been some progress I’m sure, but now stablecoins and decentralized finance could usher in some serious creative destruction. With the arrival of Blockchain powered, decentralized networks which can form the building blocks of an alternative financial system, there’s now a reason to move forward even faster. One of the roles of the central bank of NZ is to maintain an efficient financial system – but unless they ‘step up’ to the plate so to speak, the vacuum left behind could suck in other actors that may undermine NZ’s monetary sovereignty.It was James A Garfield who said: ‘He who controls the money supply of a nation controls the nation.”______________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Bitcoin: It's No Secret / Ep 184

Cat and Christine are the hosts of  'It's No Secret' - Podcast, every Tuesday - Check them out!!Bitcoin is for everyday investors, because when it's not busy completely replacing the global financial system, it's just another thing you can invest in. It shouldn't be a big deal right?While it's just another investment option, it's quite a different one. I recall watching a documentary on light a few years ago - If my memory serves, physicists don't yet agree on whether or not light is a particle of a wave. In Bitcoin circles, regulators are trying to figure out whether or not it's a currency, or a security. I think it's something entirely different, and we should all take a bit of notice to what's going on in this space.Even Satoshi Nakamoto him/her/themselves called Bitcoin a peer to peer electronic cash system - but as a medium of exchange only, Bitcoin hasn't really found it's place. It's almost as if it's showing us what it wants to become. So far we can see it's kind of like money, it's kind of like gold, and it appears attract itself to countries and individuals on the fringe, who dream dreams of big changes in the future.The core argument of Bitcoin is around centralized vs decentralized authority. Will Government and Central Bank control currency in 10 years time, or will that power finally be able to rest on the shoulders of the community instead? I'd be amazed to see this kind of power-transfer happen with ease, however.There's a deafening silence around Bitcoin at the moment in the financial advice community too, but that will change. We're having to make a choice in this fork in the road. Bitcoin could be the vaccine for a financial pandemic yet to come, or it could just be a waste of time: Choose your side.Hope you enjoy the show today. Many thanks to Catherine for allowing me to babble on today on her podcast - I hope you get something out of it. I recommend Easy Crypto for any  Crypto buyer.

Managed Funds vs Individual Shares / Episode 181

Check out 'Concentration vs Diversification' on YouTube. Welcome to a special episode this week with Kristen Lunmen and Rupert Carlyon about Managed funds vs individual shares – which strategy is best?By 'spreading you eggs' over many baskets - you MAY be able to reduce some of your losses should a share market correction occur - but this may come with potentially less 'over-performance', relative to the returns of a concentrated strategy.Investing is as much about trying to grow your wealth, as it is about trying to protect your wealth. It would be far easier if there was just one way to invest, but there isn’t. Sometimes it’s an either or type thing, but with today, it’s more about a spectrum: You may gravitate more towards managed funds if you prefer to put your faith in the compounding effect of the market, or you may gravitate towards shares, where you put your faith behind a specific company or small group of them I think investing in managed funds and individual shares to some degree, can make sense for many of us who aren’t meant to be at the extreme ends of that spectrum. ___________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Talking Money Online / Episode 179

Check out the recent guidance that the Financial Markets Authority recently published around Finfluencers: https://www.fma.govt.nz/news-and-resources/reports-and-papers/guide-to-talking-about-money-online/According to the Financial Markets Authority, "it’s fine to talk about financial matters online, as long as you keep it general" As someone who talks about money professionally and just for fun, I’m keen to understand the rules in both spaces. If you're relying on a wide range of content to power your due diligence, then there's a few things you should know also.Thanks to platforms like Sharesies, and Hatch, access directly into sharemarkets have been improved significantly – this is awesome.But running parallel to the democratization of access, is the democratization of financial advice too. Everyday people, and not just those who can access qualified financial advice from licensed operators, can benefit now from a wide range of content that comes from international and local sources, qualified, amateurs, experienced and brand new to the game – perhaps this is the next generation of financial adviser, potentially in function if not by name?Also as mentioned in the show: Check out the latest video on YouTube - please like and subscribe while you're there____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Mortgage Re-Fixing in 2021 / Ep 176 / Darcy Ungaro

If you want an answer from me around 'How Long Should I Fix my Mortgage For?', this is not the episode you're looking for I'm afraid. Instead, I'm sharing a framework here for how you may wish to go about thinking about this decision.My opinion pertaining to interest rate expectations, like anyone's really, is absolute garbage. Luckily, knowing which way things are going is not what's important anyway - instead, it's more about understanding &nbsp;your world in the context of a wider world, that makes all the difference.&nbsp;In this episode, I'm trying to share a framework of understanding of sorts so you can make a better decision next time you're thinking of fixing an interest rate.

Power to the People/ Ep 175 / Mark Pascall

Now as s a warm-up to this show, you may wish to check out what is a Stablecoin Ep 156 and what is De-centralised Finance Ep 120 and no, before you’re tempted to skip this one, It’s not actually about Bitcoin or anything too fringy today.If you know that growing wealth does not equal getting rich, then this is the episode for you - Today, it's all about exploring the imbalance of the three core pillars of society, that of the community.We're going to hear how in Cannon's Creek, which is about 22 kms north of Wellington. There's a quiet experiment going on here  which relies on technology that's already transforming mainstream finance and has the potential to disrupt Government also.Mark Pascall is my guest today - he heads up the Wellbeing Protocol. If you'd like to learn more or financially contribute, perhaps make a documentary even, reach out to Mark. The book mentioned in the show is the The Third Pillar.Traditional finance has a hard time coming to grips with the credible threat that De-centralised finance brings with it. Just like the monopoly money of today is being challenged by technology that came from a community, governance in and of itself, is the next space to be disrupted. Blockchain technology, within the next 5 years, will radically transform every part of our lives - ignoring it makes you subject to it - getting on board now, could just give you a seat at the table of the future. Or something like that.____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Kids + Money Smarts = Wealth / Ep 173

Today, we’re talking about how private enterprises are working together to ensure the next generation has a deep, default, and durable attitude towards building wealth long term.Let me ask you a question here though: In the absence of a default financial education program reaching your kids, would you be happy for them to receive guidance from sources in the business community? Would you trust a bank in delivering some education to your kids, a financial adviser, and insurance company, a KiwiSaver provider or other fund manager? Of course, we’d potentially prefer a source where there was no other incentives at play – BUT, I think having the 'right' incentive structures alone, isn’t enough to create good outcomes.  I’m a believer that even in situations where the incentive structures behind some initiatives are skewed towards growing a private enterprise, or even just virtue signalling, good outcomes will still be created. That has to be a good thing right? The purest of motivation is not a replacement for a lack of action. I can think of a few great examples recently where the government is reluctant, or even incapable, of allowing private initiatives to fill gaps they clearly have.  This is evident at the moment in areas of housing, alternative forms of money, and mental health especially. Either they accept they need a strong [gum]boot up the rear-end, or they step aside with some degree of humility and the let the experts have a go. Yes we do need Government, but the community can indeed solve some problems thank you very much!In the area of financial education, I’m super encouraged to see the likes of the FMA, and the Commission for Financial Capability, really starting to infuse themselves in the market place. Still, there’s a place for for more participants who work in the finance space to organise themselves in a way that solves the problem also.To learn more about how Banqer and Partners Life is working together, check out https://high.banqer.co/partners-life____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Where to from here?! Ep 172 / Sharon Zollner

The last time Sharon was on the podcast was Ep 121 - It was about Zombies, and you should check it out after this one.Many of us haven’t gone through a period of decent, sustained inflation – in my first decade of life existed a time where inflation hovered around 15% each year in New Zealand. Prices would double every 5 years at this rate ref: https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/NZL/new-zealand/inflation-rate-cpi. Since the early ‘90’s we’ve enjoyed steadily declining rates of inflation, and interest rates. Our parents are quick to remind us of how much interest rates used to be (on a mortgage roughly 10% of the size of yours perhaps) – are we really heading to a world like what they knew during this time, but carrying a far larger burden of debt with us? Are we seeing a transitory blip in a long term trend, a reversal, or the conclusion of some sort of super-cycle that’s going to fundamentally shift things in a way we’ve never seen before? _____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Invest Between the Flags / Ep 170 / Anthony Edmonds

‘Investing between the flags’So enter in the analogy of investing between the flags. If you visit some of the beaches this summer around the country that you haven’t been to before, what you see on the surface, can often be masking a set of risks. I know from experience that jumping into raging body for a surf when you really can’t swim that well, it can end pretty badly – rips, rocks, sharks sandflies - all can rob you of what would otherwise be an enjoyable day out. These external, macro-risks are often beyond our control, but if it can be made known it should be. Knowing the risks of what you invest in is important, but that’s not the whole story. Can you swim? – if you can, how well? Have you just eaten, have you been drinking? Knowing what you want to achieve before you jump in and the limitations of what you’re capable of can make all the difference when dealing financial markets, and the great outdoors.While the content today is really awesome – the audio quality is pretty rough - it was recorded in Wellington in a meeting room and not in the studio, but still, I Hope you enjoy the show regardless.Who is Anthony Edmonds? He's is the founder and managing director of Implemented Investment Solutions (IIS), which manages over $5 billion across three businesses.  This comprises of fund hosting, where IIS issues and manages funds for a range of different investment specialists.  IIS is also the parent business of the fast growing online investment platform InvestNow.  InvestNow enables investors to build portfolios from a wide range of PIE funds, ETFs, and bank term deposits - further, you can now mix you're own KiwiSaver from a selection of 12 leading funds on their platform.  Anthony has deep understanding of investment funds, and the New Zealand investment landscape.  Outside of work he is a keen mountain biker, and often ventures into New Zealand’s remote backcountry on multi-day adventures.This Thursday the 29th of July at 7pm – you need to pop into your diary and register for the Great DebateArticle of interest regarding wholesale investment offers:  https://www.goodreturns.co.nz/article/976517918/opinion-wholesale-investor-regime-no-loophole.html. Article mentioned in this episode around what happens when custody goes wrong: https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/124436977/serious-fraud-office-charges-christchurch-finance-whiz-with-fraud-and-forgeryCustody isn’t licensed – if you invest through a platform or fund manager that's somewhat connected to the custodian, should this be of concern?  I wouldn’t suggest that you as an investor are taking higher risks by default if this is the case. Custody may not be licensed, but neither are babysitters. In some cases, due to the regulation and best practices around the underlying fund manager, indirectly, the standards they must uphold are set very high already - I'd encourage you to do some due diligence around this for yourself if this is of concern, and have a conversation with your KiwiSaver provider, your fund manager, or your digital platform provider directly. I’m reminded also of the conversation I had with Leighton Roberts from Sharesies in Ep 79 - it may not be possible in some cases to use separate custodians. Regardless, in the spirit of swimming investing between the flags, I still think it's wise to gain clarity around these...

CBDC's, Crypto, and Tax / Campbell Pentney / Ep 169

The future of finance is already here, it's just not fully apparent. Not many of us would get excited on the topic of Central Bank digital currencies and tax, but  I'd suggest anything that can signal a change to how our dollar works is a topic we should dive into.As our investments are denominated in a currency that can be manipulated, it doesn't matter how many dollars you get as a return, if all the value those dollars hold are not in your control. Campbell Pentney is my guest and he’s a member of Bell Gully’s tax team – he works across a broad range of tax related issues and why I’ve reached out to him, is that I’m trying to round out my understanding a bit further with all things taxation, and the evolving connection it has to the future of money as we know it. *For an indepth look into Blockchain technology, check out this brief explainer video here. I recommend Easy Crypto for any  Crypto buyer.

Taxing Digital Assets / Ep 165 / Craig MacGregor

Myth one: You don't have to pay tax on your digital assets - bustedMyth two: You pay tax on gains, but cannot offset any losses - bustedMyth three: It's too complicated to pay tax on digital assets - bustedGiving to Caesar, what is due to Caesar, can be rather tough. Perhaps, some attracted to investing in digital assets like Bitcoin are attracted as it's 'outside the system' characteristics. Added to this  dilemma has been that the tax rules are a bit ambiguous and likely need time to be fine-tuned. Last year the IRD requested information from crypto on-ramps like Easy Crypto, "so we can work out how best to help taxpayers meet their income tax obligations"So, paying tax on something outside the matrix is not  natural impulse for some (I'd like to suggest you need to make this natural fyi!), the rules are clearer, but still could do with further refinement, and the last issue is that technically, it's a bit hard to collect the information required for tax compliance. Introducing Taxoshi - something that's going to make compliance with tax so much easier.

How We Did It / Episode 163

Financially conservative people often seek comfort in a spreadsheet which soon becomes their master, eventually resulting in in-action. Risk takers on the other hand, have no issues with taking action, but could often do far better with a little more planning. Once again, the solution isn't in the investment, it's within the investor.In this episode, hopefully you'll see the importance of receiving advice - more important to just receiving this advice however, is the need to ensure the advice can turn what may be considered a weakness, into a strength.In the episode, I suggested one of the ways you could locate an adviser for your needs would be to visit Financial Advice NZ for a comprehensive list that doesn't discriminate around areas of speciality or remuneration models. If you would like to enquire around working with Darcy (financial adviser), you can schedule in a free 15 min conversation just click on this link_____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Socially responsible investing, ESG, ethical investing – these principles are nothing new, but today we’re going to run through what Koura does in order to do no harm, and dare I say, even do a little good, when investors play the game.We're in a season of expecting more from our investment activities - not just in the form of higher returns with lower risks, but with lower levels of social and environmental harm especially.ESG or socially responsible investing is awesome, but I think it's a poor substitute for actually doing good yourself.

Julian McCormack, Ep 160, Know the Ledge

My guest today: Julian McCormack from Platinum Asset Management  Building wealth is about owning the right to have choice in the future – choices for you and for what’s important to you. Investing, or the practice of putting skin in a game where the odds are increasingly stacked in your favour over time, can often invoke emotions in us that we mistakenly thought we’ve already mastered. When the rubber hits the road and your hard-earned dollars are invested, logically, you want to understand the environment in which your dollars are at play in.This environment is in a constant state of change.

News of The Money-World / Ep 7 / RBNZ Playing Chicken with Inflation?

Has inflation arrived in earnest, has it moved in, or is it that one friend who visits from time to time simply to burp in the fan on a hot day?It's an odd world we live in where the enemy of the economy, inflation, is being pursued like a purse- snatcher down a dark alley. You really don't want to catch it, but you feel a perverse need to chase and obtain what you've likely lost ages ago.More and more of us are starting to believe inflation is here however. Oddly, the more people think it's here, the more likely it could get worse - perhaps we should label inflation-talk as hate speech to be safe?

Warren Couillault / Bridging the Advice-Gap / Ep 158

So - less financial advisers, but clearly a better result occurs as a result of financial advice.Digital advice, advice-only advisers, and decentralised finance will help create better outcomes for consumers of financial advice...eventually. Now though, those with smaller sums to invest, often don’t receive the same level of advice or service as those with higher amounts – why? Because in most cases, the fees you pay are a % of the amount that’s being invested on your behalf. There’s a lot of work and compliance costs involved in providing personalised financial advice, so this is why it’s mostly only efficient to provide advice for those who already have wealth, not those who are at the earlier stages of accumulation. I caught up with today’s guest Warren Couillault, from Hobson Wealth, because I wanted to learn of the innovation that’s occurred and is occurring in the financial advice space.Regulators, industry bodies, wealth managers, KiwiSaver providers, and financial advisers - all have a part to play to ensure financial advice is delivered to more Kiwi's, irrespective of any competing agendas. If anything takes away from this goal, you need to question why, especially considering the outcomes of receiving advice are so positive._____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

News of The Money-World / Ep 6 / Gambling, or Investing, in Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is an emerging new asset class desperately seeking validation in the eyes of the mainstream financial community...or perhaps it doesn't actually care at all. Perhaps with crypto in general, it is what it is, but what it does to us, is more than most of us are ready for (myself included!)Today, Rupert and I discuss the tensions between the 'already' and the 'not yet'. Bitcoin, and the neighbourhood in which it comes from, has the very real potential of flattening the status quo given enough time - this is a war make no mistake. However, the winners today, could be the losers tomorrow -  Enjoy the show!

Stablecoins in a changing new world / Ep 156

Join me today as I take leap and continue to learn more about the neighborhood in which Bitcoin lives. I’m increasing getting the sense that the world of finance is going to go through an incredible transformation, which will happen much faster than we can all imagine. There are opportunities right now for people in tech / crypto / media / and mainstream financial services to innovate like never before. This innovation will occur on rails that will hold the trains coming to flatten the status quo standing in the way.Paul Quickenden from Techemy and Adam Dodds, from Techemynt, are my guests today, along with co-host Paul Spain from the NZ Tech Podcast. What is a stablecoin, and what problem does it solve were the two main questions I brought to the recording today – but during the show I couldn’t help but think that this could be the start something pretty amazing.Stablecoins have their place already when it comes to rebalancing crypto portfolios and completing transactions quicker than they could be done before, but again, this is only the start of what’s to come. I say that not knowing exactly what’s coming down the pike either – all I can see so far, is a whole bunch of stuff that seems to do the things of traditional finance (thigs like saving, borrowing, investing, creating markets, innovating), way faster, at a lower cost, and in a manner which many mainstream people may soon come to trust. Stablecoins are going to be used as a fundamental building block by those developing and innovating in financial services going forward– all it is really, is part of a bridge – a bridge in between the current and the new - some say it’s a bridge to nowhere, others, a bridge too far. I personally don’t think it’s a bridge over the river KWAI, but it’s certainly a bridge over troubled waters._____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

The Financial Markets Authority / Fees, Performance and Risk, Episode 154

Investing can seem a bit daunting, but you know that in order to preserve the value of what you’re able to save, you need to invest – if not for the simple reason that if you don’t, the currency your stashing away, will lose purchasing power over time due to inflation. As most of us focus on the how and the what when it comes to investing, it's important to understand the nature of risk as you move further away from savings accounts, debt reduction, and term deposits as your lower risk, mainstay investments of yesterday.  Investing can quickly become a bit more involved, and in order to make the most of it, you need to understand some of the language that goes along with this territory. Now depending on where you’re at with your investing journey, you’ll likely be involved with some sort of managed fund. All a managed fund is, like KiwiSaver, is simply a pool of money that you contribute to, along with other investors, that get’s invested on your behalf by the manager.My guest in this episode is Paul Gregory from the financial markets authority (the FMA)– he’s responsible for the FMA’s strategy and approach to investment management providers (aka fund managers). You could think of the FMA as a sort of referee – if you want to play the game of investing, you’ll likely appreciate the fact that some of the risks come from the volatility in the market itself, and some of the risk occurs if there’s a mismatch between the investment, and the investor. While the FMA isn’t there to help you make the best investment decisions you can make, they are there to ensure that financial advisers and fund managers are operating with a high degree of integrity – all with the goal of reducing some of the risks that exist our there. For further information around the FMA's activity recently:LookSee campaign – encourages investors to make sure their KiwiSaver is on track when they receive their annual statement.

Bitcoin: Beyond the Moon, with Willy Woo / Part One, Ep 150

Follow Willy on Twitter: @woonomic I recommend Easy Crypto for any  Crypto buyer based in NZ (as mentioned in this show)The economic revolution will not be televised -  partly I suppose, because it’s old news – and perhaps it wouldn’t get good ratings. In 2009 however, when Bitcoin came on the scene, you likely wouldn’t have guessed it was the start of a revolution…but in many ways, it was. For so called fanatics out there that believed in being free and living in a democratic fashion, Bitcoin was the ultimate gift – the fact that by owning it, you were casting a downvote for the status quo made it all the more satisfying.The financial markets aren’t boring, but they sure can be complicated. Thinking about investing on your own, even taking out insurance – you quickly realise that often the complexity has been baked into the product, or there’s at least a general trend for complexity over time. Along comes Bitcoin, a finite piece of cryptography lingering on the internet, open to all who want to peer into it’s inner workings. We’ve observed a sharp increase in accessibility to investing over the last few years, yet some would say we haven’t observed more transparency. We can all get involved yes, but there’s a growing sense that everyday investors aren’t really playing with the full deck of cards. So along comes Bitcoin, and it’s there for anyone with internet access - it appears to be less opaque than the current financial system for many people, and it’s most certainly going to appeal to the libertarians among us. Still, some would suggest Bitcoin is [still?!] a Ponzi scheme that relies on a greater fool always being around to buy it off you in the future. Much like I wouldn’t suggest investing in the S&P500 is a Ponzi scheme though, I don’t think holding this crypto-asset would be either – perhaps during the first bull market you could be forgiven for thinking this was another Tulip bubble, but not now. In fact, people who still cling to the idea that Bitcoin is a scam, the government is going to shut it down, or that there’s no intrinsic value at all, most likely don’t own any of it. For these people, the statement they’re trying to make was that if it was any good, they’d already own it. #ignorantarroganceSo today we’re, talking to Willy Woo about his background – how he came from Napier in NZ and how now, he’s considered one of the finest Bitcoin on-chain analysts in the world. The traditional financial system is perhaps fine – perhaps all will return to normal and things will carry on much as it has for decade. On the other hand, perhaps Bitcoin is the first battle by resistance fighters against our imperial overlords being fought right now in the financial realm.Today is the first part in a two part-series – be sure to subscribe to the show if it’s your first time, and catch part-two next week._____________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Inflation, Modern Monetary Theory, and you / #148 / Oliver Hartwich

We like to think that when we borrow money, in fact we're taught this, that money is simply transferred from savers to borrowers and banks act as intermediaries. While that's partially true, it's potentially more true that new money is created every time you take out a loan from the bank...out of thin air. Technology has been tremendously deflationary, so for decades, money creation [by retail banks and also our Central Bank] had no significant impact on consumer price inflation (CPI). What we've observed in the last 12 months however, is that increased money supply does have an impact. It appears first in the giant sponges of our financial markets - property markets and equity markets have boomed, along with justified cries of anguish from those with no assets to inflate - all partially thanks to new money creation at a scale we've never seen before. I want to know, what happens when this sponge is wrung out?So I have some question for Oliver Hartwich today, from the NZ Initiative. -Why is there no inflation, as defined by the CPI occurring with all this ‘money printing’? -How can governments act to create economic growth through money supply growth – is this even possible, or is this simply an monetary hallucinogen?-How important is central bank independence from the government, and are we seeing this independence erode here in NZ? How does this trend compare to overseas?-What are some negative outcomes that are possible from too much inflation and how can we get back to further stability here – return of the gold standard in some capacity?______________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Passive Investing with KiwiSaver / Ep 146 / Rupert Carlyon

In today’ show, Rupert Carlyon is going to walk us through how KiwiSaver works behind the scenes. Rupert is with Koura Wealth ,a KiwiSaver fund manager - a fund manager makes investment decisions on behalf of members (that’s you and me).Average balances have been increasing gradually over time, and so we’re all trying to figure out how to optimize our returns – this is where the style of the fund manager can make a big difference. So what do we mean when we talk about management style.Well broadly speaking, there’s two camps here – one is passive management and the other active. Passive has a systematic and strategic approach that relies heavily on the assumption that markets are efficient, so you wont have access to information that will give you an edge, especially in the long run -the best strategy therefore is to continually invest across a diversified selection of assets such as cash, fixed interest, property and shares. Active is a bit different – the assumption with active here are that markets are not indeed efficient, and therefore you can make tactical investing decisions in an attempt to beat the returns the market would give you on it’s own. Is one right and the other wrong? Will one style work well in a rising market compared to another in a flat market? Is the market still inefficient in some areas, but they’re just different areas than they were in the past?So many questions – and we’re going to answer some of them today. As mentioned, active and passive have their place, but to a large degree this depends on how you’ve constructed your investment portfolio elsewhere. The fund that you invest in via KiwiSaver, can be managed in a passive style, but that doesn’t mean that you as an investor need to have a 100% passive strategy. Perhaps you tactically respond to changing market conditions by changing the mix of your passive funds. On the other side, perhaps you passively invest through some active fund managers – you’re being strategic in how you contract out the active management you want. The main point here, is that from an investors perspective- from your perspective, you may be the active fund manager. Perhaps you work with a financial adviser to actively manage your overall portfolio or you do it on your own – if that’s the case, do you really need to have an active KiwiSaver fund manager as well? It really does depend.Remember that this Wednesday at 530pm I’ll be in Clubhouse, so if you follow NZ Everyday Investor this week, you’ll hear Rupert and I chatting around some current events – that’s 530pm on Clubhouse, where all podcasters go to say what we really think– if you need an invite, hit my up on messenger or on twitter @UngarodarcyThanks for listening in – I hope you have an awesome week_______________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

The Housing 'Crisis' / Episode 145

The following episode contains a segment from another podcast, The Department of Conversation with Pat Brittenden. Awesome podcast and you should check it out if you haven’t already.In the last couple of weeks, I’ve been digging into these latest changes to tax rules for property investors and this so called housing crisis. I’ve also been having a lot of discussions with property owners of all shapes and sizes, worried not only around what these changes mean to them, but how it’s going to affect the economy as a whole. The main narrative in this space has been that due to hyper-activity of property investors, home ownership rates have suffered – first home buyers have been locked out of a market as investors have been gobbling up the existing housing stock. This is partially true in most recent history I’m sure, but I’ve yet to see data that supports the thesis that first home buyers can win somehow, by making property investors lose.In 1921, the proportion of households that own their home, was 59%. 100 years later it’s about 65% - (https://www.stats.govt.nz/news/homeownership-rate-lowest-in-almost-70-years). While I can see data on home ownership rates, I’m not certain there’s data on what share of the 35% of non-property owners, are actively trying to get into the market – I would have imagined this would be taken into account by policy makers though...right?Contrary to popular belief, in some ways, it's never been easier to get into the property market, thanks to a long term decline in interest rates. When you buy a property with a mortgage, you’re not paying the price, you’re simply agreeing to make a series of payments until the mortgage is repaid. Where the price is relevant however, is when you account for the deposit that needs to be saved – without 20% deposit, while it’s not impossible, it can be tricky to gain bank approval these days. So – if there’s a housing crisis, where did it come from? Is it an excuse to justify yet another tax on those who have, ultimately for the net benefit of those who don’t have, after the Government clips the ticket? Surely one of the first steps in determining how to fix a crisis, would be to determine it’s source - What about the lack of new housing, or the fact our interests rates have to be kept ultra-low even though by all accounts, they should actually increase.If there’s a crisis in the area of housing, I’m going to suggest it’s not property investors and home buyers that are to blame. Either way, a housing crisis shouldn’t be justification to make it harder for tenants to pay rent, first home buyers to get into the market, and everyday property investors just trying to get above average. If this Government needs more tax, shouldn’t they come right out and ask for it – rather than manufacture anger amongst the have’s and have nots?A couple of things to be aware of in this episode today:-There's some explicit language. Sorry about that - please be aware if listening in the car with kids.-If you listen or watch the version of this show on The Department of Conversation, not that I made a mistake with one of my comments. The National Party was not the government of the day when the rules around claiming donations were changed - it was Peter Dunne, and the Government of the day was in fact Labour - sorry!_______________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Targeting Property Investors, Ep 144 / Amanda Martin

Check out the following for more opinion pieces by Darcy Ungaro recently on this topicIn the HeraldOn The Department of Conversation PodcastIn addition to changing capital gains tax rules, further proposed legislation if passed, will cease the ability of those in the business of providing accommodation to others, to claim interest as a deductible expense. What used to be referred to as a standard accounting principal, is now being called a loophole. Amanda Martin – specialist tax adviser, is my guest today and we’re talking about what these changes actually mean, and how they could have a much larger impact than what everyday people may initially appreciate. In my conversation with everyday property investors in the last two weeks, I'm stunned how even they don't fully appreciate what these changes mean for them. If this is how those that are affected think, I can only guess the bulk of NZ hasn't a clue around what just happened, and what some of the outcomes could be.If you’re trying to grow wealth through property this is an important episode yes, but even for those without property, if you’re trying to achieve more than the average in any area, this tax move could be more symptomatic of a larger trend we all need to wise up to. It’s raining down cheap money all over the world right now, but property investors are the ones currently being targeting for getting wet – will any of these moves achieve good outcomes? Will cutting down tall poppies cull big bubbles? Will this really stop with property investors only? I’m not sure it will.  Today’s show is a mix of fact and opinion - so I would ask a favour from you if you don't mind: Consider not if these changes affect you alone – try to think of some of the broader, secondary impacts this could have on rents, private ownership in NZ, our ability to create choices in our future – think about what other honey pots could be targeted and what that means for your lifeNow as I've been mentioning recently around Clubhouse, make sure you follow me at @darcyungaro and follow the NZ Everyday Investor.

Thematic Investing 101 / Ep 143, Dean Anderson

In order to fully understand what thematic investing is, you need to lay a good platform. So today, before we answer this question, we’ll cover some basics – there’s something for everyone today really.Thematic index investing appears to give us all that we seek when we believe in a broader theme that could materialise in the future, but with diversification that ultimately could mellow out the bumps along the way. Biotech, blockchain technology, electric vehicles, space, renewables – often the opportunity is in the theme, not just a few companies everyone’s already heard of. Thematic investing carries some risks however, and this is why it shouldn’t be considered as part of your core wealth-building strategy. What happens if the theme you’re banking on does not materialise? What if, perhaps during the rebalance of the portfolio, the winners are cut off too soon? What if your emotions get the better of you, just like it can with individual shares, you may capitulate, then potentially sell at a low point.Investing carries risk – but by far, the biggest risk there is, potentially sits with the investors who only started their journey within the last 12 months. What happens when the thrill is gone, and 100% annual returns are no longer available? Will investors keep on climbing up the risk spectrum in search of a returns their minds have grown addicted to, or will they simply exit this space, downtrodden and dejected with no desire to get involved ever again?Dean Anderson, founder of Kernel Wealth, joins me in a quest today to answer the basic questions first, like:What is index investing?What is the Core/Satellite approach to investing? Check out another episode on this topic here.What is thematic investing?What role can our emotions play when investing in the current climate and what’s the danger, really._______________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Tom Hartmann / Intergenerational Wealth - kids and money, Ep 142

Follow the NZ Everyday Investor on Clubhouse by clicking on this link.Financially speaking , are kids an asset or a liability?If you're a parent, you're the primary teachers of money-management for your kids, and they’re watching everything you do – so what are we modelling to them and how do we talk about money in the household – are we doing it in ways that are encouraging them to focus on problem solving, or simply focusing on the problems alone? “We can’t afford it” versus “How can we afford it?” The first statement shuts down creativity and rules out possibilities. The second question forces us to focus on solutions.One of the biggest problems we’re all trying to solve by investing, is to ensure that we have enough for our retirement. Beyond that if we have children, how can we give them a fair chance at succeeding financially?As an example, we could look at house prices with despair thinking they’ll never get there, but we often forget the new world we’re heading into isn’t guaranteed to be all bad.How are the kids ever going to afford their own home? This frustrating question gets us to focus on something that’s not exactly helpful – a problem that we haven’t been able to solve yet. Increasingly, we’re even seeing this question get politicised – property investors are the problem, rather than housing supply – really?! Let’s say housing continues to march upwards though: Today, 20% of the purchase price would be $200k., assuming an average starter home may cost $1m in a main city area. At a 7% growth rate, over 20 years, 20% deposit would turn into $800k! (20% of $8m). This sounds ridiculous, but remember, this was the same issue 20 years ago when the average price was $250k (and a 20% deposit was only $50k). What’s changed in the last 20 years? Interest rates are a fraction of what they were, prices for some items have decreased, and incomes have increased [slightly]. What’s going to change in the next 20 years? 1- interest rates may not be able to increase significantly from here, 2- what we use as currency will change (non-fungible tokens, tokenised assets, other crypto-assets), and here’s the controversial conjecture, 3 - incomes may increase at a faster pace than what we've seen for a while. The point is, the future is going to be qualitatively different to the present, so speaking negativity around a ‘housing crisis’ is at the very least a waste of time, and worse, it’s a distraction from what we should really be focusing on – specifically, helping our kids discover a better way. Growing wealth can be hard, don’t get me wrong, but that doesn’t mean your kids can’t have a good crack at it. Teach them how to work [hard and smart], teach them how to manage money, then allow them to creatively solve problems – you may just succeed in in turning a potential liability in your future, to an asset.So today, the genesis of intergenerational wealth – teaching your kids about money. As with everything our kids will face going forward, they will likely start out in the physical, and eventually end up in the digital realm._______________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Sam Stubbs / Challenging the Status Quo/ Ep 139

The first question - why are floating rate mortgages so expensive in NZ??Currently with the main banks, you can get fixed rate loan in the low 2% area, but floating rates with these same banks are between 3-4%. In a world now where it seems that interest rates are at no risk of increasing, and in fact, may still decrease further, a floating rate loan gives borrowers a tremendous amount of flexibility over fixed rates. Unfortunately to get this benefit though, you have to pay a hefty premium for it. Through Simplicity you may also qualify with them for a mortgage rate which is pretty much the same as the other banks in the low 2’s currently – but the interesting part is that it’s a floating mortgage. How is this possible is one question, then the next question becomes, why aren’t mainstream banks doing this already?Now on to the second question -  we’re talking about the NZX - is the new Zealand stock exchange functioning in a way that is beneficial for stakeholders, not just shareholders? In recent years, we’ve witnessed more than one high profile company opt to list on the Australian stock exchange over the NZX – Why is this? The NZX is evolving, but is it moving in a direction that will help investors, other fund managers, and the bright spark business in NZ that ultimately want to stay here? Well Sam has an opinion on this also  - enjoy!Check out the previous episode with Sam here: https://nzeverydayinvestor.simplecast.com/episodes/7bf5bbaa__________________________________________________________________Like what you’ve heard?You can really help with the success of the NZ Everyday Investor by doing the following:1- Tell your friends!2- Write a review on Facebook, or your favourite podcast player3- Help support the mission of our show on Patreon by contributing here4- To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on Youtube: 5- Sign up to our newsletter hereNZ Everyday Investor is on a mission to increase financial literacy and make investing more accessible for the everyday person!Please ensure that you act independently from any of the content provided in these episodes - it should not be considered personalised financial advice for you.

Beyond GameStop - Have the rules of the game changed? 138 / Julian McCormack

——————A recent Goldman Sachs report into the US financial markets found parts of the market “appear frothy,” with “signs of unsustainable excess.” The peaks we’re seeing today, particularly among high-growth stocks and stocks with negative earnings appear to point to some kind of economic unreality. “We’re a long way up the gang plank in terms of valuation,” said Julian McCormack. “It’s a very elevated point in the history of the market”When people start using words like “froth” and “bubble,” there’s a secondary assumption that at some point, the thin membrane surrounding it will soon break, releasing everything beneath in a cloud of water droplets and hot air. To Julian, parts of the markets of today, particularly with the evangelism around tech stocks, evokes memories of the bubble in the 1920’s.People back then started out their adult lives hopping on a horse to get to work and sending a carrier pigeon home to remind their kid to turn the open fire off. Within a relatively short period they were zooming around town in cars and calling their mates on the telephone — imagine how euphoric and unstoppable people felt during this time. We all know what happened next as the Great Depression hit and people were brought back to reality, fast. Today everything is changing again. Innovation is causing constant change to the operation of our daily lives, and naturally this builds euphoria — a hype which seeps into share markets and ultimately supercharges sentiment.But is it really a bubble, or are we operating in a new kind of system, governed by rules not yet written?Interest rates are almost guaranteed not to rise, we’ve busted through any previous points of resistance in terms of all time highs in almost every sector – perhaps the punchbowl of quantitative easing has been replaced with a glass table, a rolled up twenty, and a little white bag.The state of many parts of the current market is punctuated by a massive “if.” And as much as some commentators will try to tell you they have a perfect model for what is going on, there is no clear guard rails for these unprecedented times. As Julian says, we must be wary of “the absolute impossibility of predicting outcomes in a chaotic system.”So what do we do – what’s a rational response to an irrational situation? Cash out and stuff it in the mattress?  Wait it out – call for the end of the world so that hopefully the market hears you? Or diligently keep building, knowing that in the long term, you should be okay?While there’s no perfect answer, Julian reminds investors of the importance of keeping the investment fundamentals in mind.  “We all must be reminding ourselves to exercise general cautionary principles, even if markets might push higher,” says Julian. ________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

We're talking Mortgages! Episode 137 / Sarah Bloxham

Today with Sarah, we’re talking about what’s involved in getting ready to talk to the bank, how to navigate through some of the trickier aspects of gaining an approval, and how different it is talking to the bank yourself vs going through an adviser.If you're a first home buyer, or looking to build your next home, please reach out to Sarah if you'd like assistance in arranging a mortgage. Alternatively, if you're buying something bigger, getting into property investment for the first time, this is where I (Darcy) can really help (and you can help support the efforts of this podcast too!). To speak with Darcy, Just click on this link to book in a 60 min initial consultation.  Property Market Update: In the property space, last 12 months has been like going for a bus ride with a driver who views the accelerator and brake as buttons and not pedals.As soon as Covid hit our shores, easing lending regulations and low interest rates ignited a fire. Property investors didn’t start the fire -it was already burning with first home buyers by the time they showed up. Either way, the were all going after the same, limited stock of housing. Both groups are in the bus while the driver, the Reserve Bank, punches the pedal to the metal, but then the brake to the floor.Property sells newspapers – The public perceives injustice in the housing market, the media spins, then serves it up, Government responds, and the Reserve Bank takes action. So while that’s playing out, here’s a few truths [opinions!] quietly lurking in the background.Low interest rates lead to higher property prices – higher property prices make us feel good, then economic wheels begin turning.Interest rates cannot increase – Covid in the community or not, NZ has to adopt a similar monetary policy strategy as other countries are, and that means we get the medicine even though we don’t have the sickness.Central banks need inflation, and will risk the possibility of higher inflation to get itGiven the size of the typical mortgage in NZ, a small increase in interest rates could be devastating. Lowering the cost of money will always directly add to the value of property. Increasing the cost of money from here may not bring down property prices, but it could cause massive mortgage defaults.Because interest rates will be low for a long time, more lending rules and work-arounds will abound from here. We’ve seen the loan to valuation ratio’s kick in again to 60% for investment properties, But you’ll also likely see debt-to income ratios, loadings on property investor loans and less interest only loans being offered – all moves designed to offset the asset inflation which is a natural byproduct of cheap money.So if inflation is the goal, the pump’s been primed in the form of quantitative easing but this isn’t enough - there needs to be a catalyst to get that money moving. We need velocity but how do we get it? I think property values are the key – the goal is to create a wealth-effect by allowing property values to increase – this encourages spending, and this spending partially aids in economic recovery.I’m not sure if this is the consensus view, but I think it’s pretty simple: The government doesn’t actually want to stop a rising house market.Rising property values and rising inequality are not unique problems to NZ. It’s an uncomfortable season of allowing the gap to widen for the greater good – it’s not cool at all, but it’s happening. Inequality is growing here, there, and everywhere, but maybe this is the lessor of two evils? On one hand people who own get more and those with little get less / on the other hand, perhaps in the process of allowing the wealthy to do even better, we avoid an economic depression.What this all likely means for you, if you own property, is that...

GameStop Explained, Episode 136 / Natalie Ferguson

I’m having a quick chat today with Natalie Ferguson today – she’s the head of product at Hatch, one of NZ’s online share market investing platforms that gives investors access to the US.Imagine that you decided a month ago that you wanted to invest in Gamestop.. You could have purchase shares at the start of 2021 for around $20 – a couple weeks later you would have seen the price hit around $450 each. Wow! – You’d be pretty pumped, that is, until you tried to sell. Due to some reasons we’ll cover in this episode – this is exactly what happened. Trading was halted at the worst possible time for retail investors: People who bought in, may have experienced a meteoric rise in their portfolio, but then they found it impossible to sell to realise the gains. Since the news of this broke, the share price has been floating down like a wet feather to where we’re at now at the time of recording of $50 each.What does it mean to short a stock?Shorting is when you borrow a stock from a broker, then sell that stock at the market value today, with an expectation that you can repay that share by acquiring it again at a later stage, hopefully at a much lower price. With shorting, you sell high, then buy low (contrast this with ‘going long’, where you [hopefully] buy low and eventually sell high. By shorting, you can profit from the price of a share declining – larger players in the sharemarket, hedge funds, will often identify companies that are likely to face a decline in value in an attempt to benefit from their demise through shorting.Now I’m not describing a tool here that you should be using, this is just for background – in fact, unless you’re involved in trading actively (and using a platform made for that purpose), it would be a bit unusual to see everyday investors shorting.So going back to Gamestop, what we’ve seen is what’s also known as a short squeeze. Hedge Funds that were shorting Gamestop were waiting until the price dropped further  – that’s what they expected would happen because remember, this company sells video games in physical malls. So these hedge funds ultimately need to re-purchase the stock (hopefully cheaper) to repay the borrowed stocks. Now what happens when you’re short and the price rises as in the case with Gamestop? You have to either hold on for the ride, or close out your position and purchase the stock to do it. Like sitting in the car in the sun, windows up complete with farting and complaining children– you can only hang on so long then you have to crack a window right?So, a rising share price due to increasing demand, along with short sellers covering their position, gives you what’s known as a short squeeze. The result is that it further intensifies the upward momentum in price.A special thanks again to the listeners of the show who messaged me last week asking me to cover this topic.One other thought I want to leave you with before ending this episode if I may. I’d love to suggest this is a simple story of David and Goliath – but in reality, just like with David and Goliath, there was conflict brewing beforehand, and there was conflict afterwards. This saga has shown us that something’s going on, but for those ‘sticking it to the man’, the man has only just noticed your strategy. Technology, and more importantly, organised groups of people using technology, has the power to change the way investing works going forward. With any war, there will be some destruction, but there’s also going to be opportunity. Hedge funds perhaps need to make some changes, but the opportunities that were really only theirs to exploit, has now been released to others. For a more comprehensive and deep dive into what's happened, stay tuned to the show, but also check out this video from Brent...

NZ Bitcoin Roundtable, Episode 135

Where to buy Bitcoin? I recommend Easy Crypto for any  Crypto buyer. If you're ready to get into Bitcoin, make a start here by setting up an account with Easy Crypto.___________________________________________________________________________________Paul Spain from NZ Tech Podcast, Janine Grainger from Easy Crypto, and Brooke Howard-Smith from We Are Tenzing.Due to the recent price movements in Bitcoin we are once again observing how this cryptocurrency is occupying a larger space in the minds of the everyday investor. Some would say still Bitcoin is a scam, a bubble, or something far to risky to play with – many financial advisers are still in this camp too, so as a byproduct, investors are seeking advice and guidance from a myriad of alternative sources to fill the gap – this can dangerous, but just like an over-protective parent hell-bent on keeping their kids safe, eventually the kids find a way to play a game you don’t want to them to play.Recently I think we saw a good example of this playing out with Gamestop. Apparently, incumbent hedge funds don’t like it when it’s amateur hour - they’ll certainly do everything they can to shut down everyday investors – but increasingly, it’s not their exclusive game to play. Perhaps they need need to learn to play well with their siblings. Technology, whether it’s a Reddit page or a new asset class, changes things far faster than what many 'parents' are prepared for.So, if you’re keen to learn more about investing in Bitcoin, then there are three easy questions you could start with: Firstly, what is Cryptocurrency, then what are the options around gaining exposure to it, then, how much of this should be in your portfolio. We covering some of these topics today but at the end of this episode, I want to zero in on the last one – how much Crypto could be included in your investment portfolio?I hope you enjoy today’s show – it’s not too technical, it’s just a chat with 4 people  who come from different perspectives sharing some thoughts and opinions - enjoy.Where to buy Bitcoin? I recommend Easy Crypto for any  Crypto buyer.

Investing Post-Pandemic / Episode 134 / Jim Rickards

 Author, economist, investment banker and lawyer, Jim Rickards is my  special guest todayInvesting in a post-pandemic world – that’s our topic. I’ve arranged to chat with Jim as he wrote a new book recently: The New Great Depression /winners and losers in a post pandemic world.2020 confirmed what I’ve been sensing for over 3 yrs now in relation to what’s coming for the everyday investor -  change is coming. Specifically though, I’m talking about a different type of change –transformation. If you also believe that transformation is coming, the good news is that we can take position in it – there is something we can do.  While many investors will still follow the old rules, old strategies and old tools to build wealth (btw way I myself believe this is likely still the wisest thing to do), I think, especially for my generation and younger, we need to ask a challenging question around how we’re going to build wealth in the new world: Whatever strategy you have, will it be durable, in a world of transformation to come?With equity markets even our monetary system, I think there’s a growing chance we’re either in the eye of the storm or in the calm before the storm – either way, things may soon get shaken, so perhaps investors do need thinking about how to prepare._________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

It's all about Bitcoin, baby! Ep 133 / Janine Grainger

Resources:Where to buy Bitcoin? I recommend Easy Crypto for any  Crypto buyer. If you're ready to get into Bitcoin, make a start here by setting up an account with Easy Crypto.Notes:There’s a lot of definitions of what Bitcoin is for the everyday person – I like this simple definition though– it’s digital money for the digital world.What is money?  Well one of the definitions of money is that it’s a store of value. You can go to work all week, and your income is the distillate of your own human effort. That substance, or value, can be traded with others to obtain goods and services you need. If you’re not ready to make those purchases however, or if you’re saving longer term for other things, like say retirement, you need to have confidence that the store of value you use will be durable. One of the things we need to do to ensure our value is not eroded over time, is we need to invest. Diversification is an important tool when investing, but most simply diversify within the financial world. Bitcoin gives us a tool to diversify from it. So the problem, that Bitcoin aims to solve, is that the current financial system may be dying. In my view, and bear with me here, a consistently falling interest rate over time testifies to this death. The solution may be to provide a new monetary reference point, that can ultimately rebuild a new type of system that’s built on scarcity, rather than debt and unlimited money creation by a central bank and government. Our current money we use works, because we trust that it will work – however, the titanic of the current financial system that we voyaging in, has just hit an iceberg. Are we simply going to listen to the band and carry on, or make a rush for the limited supply of lifeboats that others are already gathering around? Some say Bitcoin doesn’t have any intrinsic value – this is a great example of a view akin to old wine in new wine bottles. The underlying assumption here is that our current dollars will denominate and dominate our investments in the future. What if that changes though due to loss of trust?

NZ in a global context / Oliver Hartwich

Oliver Hartwich is my guest from the NZ Initiative, a pro-free-market public-policy think tank and business membership organisation in New Zealand.2021 will be the first year after the biggest disruption my generation has ever witnessed – Investing post pandemic will be different to pre-pandemic – no longer can we ignore the risks of increasing debt levels, how new money is created, and the risks that long term inflation combined with low economic growth will bring. Modern monetary theory, a convenient way for governments to short-cut the need to actually increase productivity, will have massive long-term impacts. Everyday investors still have time to potentially take a position to benefit from this trend – failure to do so in fact, could put one on the wrong side of significant disruption ahead.I talk frequently about how building wealth in the new world, requires new tools and new strategies. If there’s transformation coming, some will be victims of it, and some will be victors. In 2021, we may see two groups of investors starting to emerge – traditionalists, who insist that mainstream investment ideology is what we’ll eventually revert back to, and alt-investors, those who are actually looking forward to significant disruption, the likes we haven’t seen since the great depression. So, today’s episode may not be for the beginner, but I urge you to try to understand some of these concepts – investing doesn’t occur in a vacuum or in a static environment. Just as much research should be done on the environment in which your investing in, as the strategies you employ.To learn more about the NZ Initiative and to sign up to their newsletter, check them out here.N.B: Shortly after recording this episode, it's worth noting to listeners that the website Newsroom, ran an expose on then NZ Initiative blog editor, Nathan Smith, which found him to have published racist and misogynistic views on his own personal blog. Oliver has since described Smith's writings as "abhorrent" and the organisation is launching an independent investigation to ensure NZ Initiative material has not been compromised. For me personally, I welcome thoughts and ideas from a broad spectrum – it’s useful for creating thoughtful conversations and genuine insights as to how the world works – in fact one of NZ’s greatest strengths is diversity. Occasionally though, we have to make a call and say ‘no’ to hateful and ignorant comments from the far right. I’d do the same for actions and comments from the far left that endorse more control and restrict freedom of speech too. Diversity in thoughts should be cherished, but when you go too far, not much good ever comes of that.https://www.newsroom.co.nz/think-tank-editor-runs-far-right-bloghttps://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/432662/new-zealand-initiative-to-investigate-content-after-staffer-s-resignation-over-extreme-views_________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Investing in Startups / Robbie Paul

What is a startup?It’s not a publicly traded company on the NZ or ASX– it may not be a proven business yet, it may not be profitable, and it may only be just getting started. A start up could be a seed, a sprout, or a seedling – an idea, some sort of product, perhaps even some revenue coming in. Founders or a fewer number of individuals will own the shares in startups – and because it’s not traded on a share market – this makes it a bit trickier to get your money out.Who should invest in startups?Anyone who’s constructing a diversified portfolio, or collection of investments) and who may wish to include alternative investments into the mix – Bitcoin, precious metals, fine art are alternative (non-mainstream) investments, and startups fit perfectly in the mixAs with most alternative investments, they may provide an opportunity for exceptional returns. So who should invest in startups? Anyone who can keep their eyes on the prize and not get rattled along the way – you need to okay with taking risk here.What are the risks/benefits?The startup could eventually go public, and you hopefully get more than you paid for the stake of ownership you have. Alternatively, the startup could get acquired by another firm or even a private equity firm. No matter which way, if you back the right seedling, your reward could be immense – imagine if you were offered Xero shares in 2006 before they went public?What about the risks? Well, you could lose everything, especially if you’re investing in only one or two companies. Perhaps the idea doesn’t have legs – perhaps the market changes or the founders of the startup have a falling out.Remember that your rate of return, which could be really high in this space, is your compensation for the level of risk that you’re takingWhat position should you be in before you consider investing in start ups?This is really important. When you’re younger, it’s more appropriate to take high levels of risk when investing, but that’s kind of hard considering most younger people have high debt levels, not a lot of cash reserves, potential income disruption by having children and all the rest – really, you want to be in a position I think where at the very least, you have no short term personal debt (like no credit card debt or hire purchase debt), a decent buffer of cash to get you through 3-6 months, and you own your own home. Some would say you’d want to be debt free on your own home also – but I wouldn't be that dogmatic here.You also shouldn’t be investing in startups if you think you’re going to need that money back in the short to medium term. If you think you can live perfectly fine without seeing that money for a very long time (or even ever), then that’s a good sign you have enough spare capital to allocate to this asset class. Startup investing is very illiquid - you cannot convert it back to cash easily and quickly.A note regarding the core/satellite investment approach: Some may choose to build their satellites (direct shares, alternative investments) first or others choose to build their core first (which is your mainstream stuff). Now what you choose to do is what you choose to do here – but your decision could be a function of: Your current position; Your perspective on taking risk with money, or even some market timing considerations. I know many would suggest you want to build a decent portfolio of mainstream investments first, but that doesn’t give the everyday investor enough of a runway in my opinion for a higher risk investment like startup investing to bear fruit.All things considered, and I'm still learning here also, I have two big problems with investing in startups:1- the barriers to entry are quite high. Often,...

Trading 'Greater Good' for 'Greater Economy' / Jeremy Couchman

This week, I’m serving up not some leftovers, but more some kept-asides. I had a really good chat recently with Jeremy Couchman, senior economist from KiwiBank in episode 128, but if you listen to the audio podcast only, you’ve only heard half the conversation – This week you get the rest. Inequality is likely going to increase, directly proportionate to greater levels of intervention. Those who vote, those who pay higher taxes, care far more about the value of their home than even they will ever admit – politicians know that when we feel wealthy, we’ll be act happier, earn more, then pay more tax, and spend more, then pay more tax again. When share markets and property markets have one of their best years ever, in one of the worst years ever, you have to come to the conclusion - The economy will always likely take priority over the people in times of crisis, as long as politicians are in charge. _________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Separation of Central Bank and State? Jenee Tibshraeny

The reserve bank (or RBNZ) does a lot of things, but simplistically, they make the money, they control the cost of it, and they play an important role as a regulator in NZ financial system.Some of the stuff the RBNZ does crosses over with what our government does also – you may be wondering then, why are the two even separate?Well, given it’s that time of year when some head to church to celebrate the origin of Christmas story – let’s talk about the separation of church and state.The idea that there should be a wall of separation between church and state was an idea originally based on phrase first coined by Thomas Jefferson – Some believe it’s to protect the state from the church but some think it’s actually the other way around. I’m not going to pretend like I’m a great historian here, but I wonder if some of reasons why Jefferson pushed for this wall was to ensure the proper functioning of each entity without setting lose some unhelpful agendas. There’s another wall that exists between the government and the reserve bank too. Is it a wall that’s designed to protect one side from the other? or is there to protect us, the everyday people?Well, what do we need protecting from you ask? Helping maintain financial stability in NZ demands decisions get made that aren’t always popular, like keeping interest rates low, which yes, forces house prices higher and creates greater inequality as a side effect. Politicians like to feed our fear, then solve our problems, because that keeps them in power – central bankers on the other hand simply have a job to do, and they get on with doing it, even when we may not like the side-effects.Based on current events – as awkward as it appears, the two may be lowering the wall though just enough to communicate and collaborate – is this the point of no return I wonder. Some would suggest we potentially have enough government already, and more involvement in monetary policy would be frightening / Some might say the damage being done in terms of rising inequality, needs to be dealt with. Either way, the NZ’s central bank could become a central focus in 2021Jenée Tibshraeny is financial journalist for interest.co.nz and is an acclaimed reporter who covers the interaction between government and economics. I have her on the show today because I have some questions about the Reserve Bank._________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

LVR's, Stimulants, and Depressants / Jeremy Couchman

Stimulants, depressants, and LVR’s – what do these things have in common?Well, they’re all attempts to force change on an otherwise natural state. Markets boom and then they bust – the pendulum swings – there are gains there are losses, but in the long term it all kind of works out. That’s equilibrium – and it’s not that pretty.What happens in the macro, happens in the micro also - short term its chaos, but as long we keep our speed low and velocity high, we're all good.Intervention (lower official cash rate, bank funding for lending programmes, large scale asset purchases), distorts not only the free market, but ultimately the end state of the everyday investor.Free markets are seldom pretty, but because we prefer pretty, we vote for more intervention every chance we get.To stimulate growth following the global financial crisis in 08, well ahead of the coronavirus pandemic, interest rates were lowered. As a side effect of this intervention though, the housing market took off – to offset this, loan to valuation restrictions were implemented.Hope you enjoy part one of my discussion with Jeremy. _________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

NZ Property and Foreign Buyers / Geoff Caradus

Are foreign buyers behind NZ’s latest housing boom?The latest report out of the Real Estate Institute shows New Zealand’s median house price was 20% higher last month than the same time last year, while in Auckland the median price has now shot north of $1 million. Naturally, for the many New Zealanders trying to enter the housing market this has been a real cause for concern over the past few months. This concern has evolved into all out rage on the public stage, as frustrated home buyers look for somewhere to focus the blame. These are all ‘demand-side distractions’, when the core issue is in fact, supply. The blame-game continues to play out though which of course ropes in the Prime Minister, the Reserve Bank, over-anxious first home buyers, and property investors, just to name a few. But for foreign buyers, the group of cashed up internationals usually at the centre of these media storms, the public has been rather quiet. That’s because in 2018, New Zealand introduced the Overseas Investment Amendment Bill, which virtually cuts out foreign buyers of the residential market.The ban was borne out of this public sentiment as the public searched for someone to blame. Was there ever a problem here - we’ll never be sure as the data collected was never clear enough from the start.“There was a perceived problem that there were too many foreign buyers on the market. There were anecdotal stories in the news of buying a home in Auckland and being surrounded by foreign people,” said Geoff Caradus, a lawyer at Pitt & Moore.So has this ban, intended to temper New Zealand’s surging housing market, been successful?“It’s been very successful in stopping overseas people buying residential property in New Zealand to the extent it was intended to be,” however, “the devil is in the detail with this sort of stuff.”What makes someone an overseas buyer?An overseas person is defined as someone who does not fall in the below 4 categories: Have a resident’s class visa,Have been in New Zealand for at least the last year,During the year in New Zealand you have spent at least 183 days in the country,And you’re a tax resident in New ZealandThis covers the individuals, but it also extends to the entities they own and control. As lawmakers know, higher worth individuals often have a myriad of trusts and organisations in their name. Could it be possible these entities have been used to ‘hide’ the true origin of the purchaser or their money?“The people who write these laws know all that stuff, they aren’t idiots. So they made the threshold that if 25% of the entity is owned or controlled by an overseas person, then the entity itself will be considered an overseas person.”A wealthy yet disgruntled Trump supporter looking for greener pastures, may find the first three controls fine, but you lost them at the 4th.“We talk with people about options for buying land and the conversation is going well, until we tell them about them getting to the tax residency,” laughs Caradus.Caradus and his organization will receive around a request every month from overseas people looking for loopholes for these tough new laws. “The overseas investment office has been very active in pursuing violations of this law,” said Caradus.Lawyers and real estate agents are all equally obliged under the bill as well as new AML (anti money laundering) restrictions, so aiding and abetting this kind of behaviour would put any professional squarely in harm’s way. This nevertheless, doesn’t discount a less scrupulous lawyer than Geoff, taking the lost client instead, right?“If you’ve got someone lying to their lawyer, lying to their real estate agents and risking the millions of dollar fines that come with the act, I wouldn’t say that means the act has failed. People will do all kinds of...

Kids and Investing / Trading vs Investing - Natalie Ferguson and Kristen Lunmen

In this wide ranging interview Darcy sits down with Natalie Ferguson & Kristen Lunman from Hatch Invest to talk about encouraging good behavior from retail investors, why a Hatch employee’s kid loves him more because he owns Disney shares, and the benefits of planning for a portfolio nosedive.***Note, for those using the audio only version, Kristen is the Co-founder with the Canadian accent and Natalie is the Head of Product with the Kiwi accent————With retail investor mania clearly on the rise, there's been a widely held opinion from the stiff lipped, long-time investors, that most of these investors are going in blind. Perhaps this is true from the wider global community led by the likes of Davey Day Trader, but Hatch counts their users outside of this group. Hatch is on a mission to buck the trend of under-informed investors heaping into bad decisions by supporting initiatives that provide independent commentary/education; and it’s been returning dividends. A recent survey of Hatch users found that a massive 97% of its users self-report having done their research before investing, through a combination of annual reports, analyst reports, and share price trackers. “Well I think if you compare Hatch with any other investment platform, it’s our education which makes the difference. You get that education, you get that support, you get that community; to make wiser decisions,” said Natalie.As head of product, Natalie has made a concerted effort to distinguish themselves from the likes of Robinhood in the United States. The retail investing app has seen widespread criticism for using nudge theory — the idea of encouraging behaviors through clever pushes that the podcast covered about a couple of months ago — to lure poorly equipped investors into frequent trading.“My biggest concern is that the easier that you make something to get in, the easier it is to get out also", said Darcy.“We made the browsing experience pretty full on to start to make sure people did the research on what they wanted to invest in, without leading them into making a particular investment.", Said NatalieHatch has intentionally designed the platform with small fees on each transaction, so as not to encourage frequent daily trades. They have also removed celebratory emails after every transaction, instead, they focus on celebrating things like receiving dividends at the end of year.Passing down financial educationOn the cards in the coming weeks, is Hatch’s first foray into investing for kids, which they see as a positive way to build better financial understanding amongst the next generation. For Kristen, buying her son into Nike, one of his favourite companies, has formed the perfect introduction to investment education. “It’s such a good way to get them engaged,” said Kristen. Purposeful investingOne of the biggest lessons that kids and adults alike need to learn as the world navigates a highly uncertain world, is the idea of pre-determining your response to changing circumstances in the market. “I encourage anyone who is investing anywhere, if things did go up or did drop it’s a really good idea to plan in advance for how you’re going to react,” said Natalie.Whether it’s written down, spoken to a friend, or drawn on a notebooks somewhere; any investor should have a strong strategy for what happens when investments drop. Naturally, seeing your important investment freefalling is going to be of concern, but with a coherent strategy in place, investors can feel confident of an eventual rebound. “If when you look at your portfolio and it’s...

The Missing Ingredient In Your Retirement Plan / Rupert Carlyon

Neglecting financial advice can cost you a fortune in retirement; FSC studyKōura’s Rupert Carlyon joins the NZ Everyday Investor to discuss the role of digital advice in helping give more Kiwi's a leg up with their investments, why it doesn’t mean traditional advice is done for, and look at the often neglected $20,000 and below Kiwisaver balance holder. While most people in the financial services industry can hand on heart tell you that their advice leads to better outcomes for their clients, it’s often more difficult to prove . Recent data from the Financial Services Council brought this idea from opinion, into the realm of hard fact. According to their research, based on more than 2,000 people across New Zealand, those that received financial advice had a 50% larger Kiwisaver balance. It’s an amazing statistic, but an unsurprising one for those working day to day in the industry. Still, the harsh reality is that often those who are 'already on their way', seem to be the recipients of good advice.“It basically doesn’t make sense for a financial advisor to take on a client with lower savings,” says Rupert Carlyon.Investment advisors often (but not always) earn revenue by the amount of assets under management. There aren’t sufficient market forces to make it worth the while for a high-street financial adviser therefore to take on a client with a small Kiwisaver balance. What is financial advice?Advice, as Rupert understands it, can be divided into two separate parts. The first being the asking of questions. What is your specific financial situation? How much are you currently contributing to your investments, and what is your ultimate end game?From there, an adviser has the foundations to give catered financial wisdom based on a client’s specific circumstance. For Rupert, who’d seen the rise of robo-advice overseas, he realised that going digital was the best way to capture the broad spectrum of the New Zealand public who were failing to get advice. Their digital tool is built on the same methodical steps that a human financial adviser would take when assessing a client’s financial situation, before generating a solution catered to them. For many, the realisation that they’re less prepared for the retirement that they had dreamed of ,has become a consistent come-to-Jesus moment.“The biggest piece of feedback we get from people using our tool has been the surprise of seeing how much they’ll actually be getting on a weekly basis in retirement,” said Carlyon. Often we focus on the amount - $1m, $2m, $500k, $10m - everyone has an opinion on this but what does that lump sum of money actually mean for you?Why digital advice could be a game changer for NZ’s under-advised.Kiwisaver has been a wildly successful means to bring the broader spectrum of New Zealanders into the world of investment, but there has been some apathy in many people’s engagement with the retirement product. According to a September Westpac survey, only one in four people aged 18-24 know what type of KiwiSaver fund they are in.“We’re hoping, with digital advice, we’re giving a whole new world of people advice they wouldn’t have otherwise had, which enables them to make better financial decisions,” said Rupert. While the show’s host may be a authorised financial adviser, does the advent of ‘digital advice’ make him and his colleagues in the industry want to run for the hills and become real estate agents with outgoing MP, Paula Bennett? Short (and long) answer, no. “In March when everybody is watching their investments drop 10’s of thousands of dollars,...

Allocating Assets, Growing the Pie / Rupert Carlyon

When Rupert Carlyon, CEO of Kiwisaver fund, Kōura, tells me that “asset allocation is something near and dear to my heart” my first instinct is to laugh out loud - how could something so boring be so good? If buying and selling flashy individual stocks is the weekend Tesla joyride side of investing, “asset allocation” sounds more like commuting to work in a Toyota corolla. My morning commute is not, by any means, near and dear to my heart. But I wanted to hear him out. Carlyon’s built a Kiwisaver scheme which upends the simplistic idea of assets falling into three different classes — conservative, balanced and growth. Just as being ‘conservative’ doesn’t mean you agree with every National Party policy, the Kiwisaver industry has survived for too long now dividing people along crude party lines. Kōura’s online advice tool helps place people across the spectrum of risk profiles, so naturally, as time passes, so does the way you’re invested. Definition: Asset allocation is a simple concept really - It’s the implementation of an investment strategy, designed to to balance risk and reward by adjusting the percentage of each asset in an investment portfolio. The assets may be cash / fixed interest / property or shares. Each asset type has different characteristics like including volatility (how much is it going to change in value), returns (how much are you going to be rewarded for your risk over time) and liquidity (the ability to convert the asset into cash).“As much as it might not feel like it for some people, Kiwisaver is an investment. It’s not set and forget.  If you’re going to be retiring at 65, by 45 you should already be reconsidering asset allocation,” said Rupert.Similarly, asset allocation is an important concept for all investors to understand as you slice up your own pie.  What is your risk appetite now? What about five years from now? What proportion of your overall portfolio will go to high risk but high return investments like shares? How much toward things like bonds and well diversified exchange traded funds?Once you’ve determined how you’d like to divvy up the pie, you need to build a proper strategy and stick to it. The pie you made six months ago might look considerably different to the one you have now, particularly as different parts of the portfolio outperformed and outgrew others.This is where the idea of rebalancing comes in. Rebalancing is the act of skimming off the top of some of the elite performers in your portfolio, and putting some of those earnings into parts that might not have done as impressively. It’s a way to keep your investment strategy consistent and strategic, which is highly likely to correlate to long term success. It’s counter intuitive for most to murder your darlings however.“Do you really think you should have 99% of money in Tesla? I don’t think you want your whole livelihood based on Elon Musk’s next tweet.”Rebalancing and asset allocation may not sound like the world’s sexiest conversation topics, but it’s incredibly sensible if not for this very simple reason: When investing seriously, you need to have a strategy, and this is as bullet proof as they come.Disclaimer: Koura Wealth is a partner of the NZ Everyday Investor and has contributed financially towards the podcast to support content designed to empower everyday investors._________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Zombies, QE, and FLP / Sharon Zollner

If you own property and have mortgage debt, if you invest in publicly traded companies, if you’re retired and trying to live off savings - the environment has been changing for some time, but we’ve just had years of change within just a few month. Your investment strategy should take into account the change already occurring – but that’s not the same as saying you should change your strategy because of your environment though.In today's show we cover off some of the reason's why the Reserve Bank is doing what they are doing and some of the consequence of them acting/not acting. SPECIAL NOTICE TO PROPERTY BUYERS: I’d really like to hear about some of your experiences or challenges you had recently if you’ve bought, are buying, or about to buy a home. Your input could inspire, or be used, to create a new property related series this summer. It could be your first or your fifth – I want to know what it was like in the auction room, how you received guidance along the way, some of the things you wish you knew from the start legal stuff, real estate agent stuff, finance stuff, or anything really. If you’re okay with hearing your voice on the podcast – here’s what you can do. 1- make sure that you’re following the NZ everyday investor on Facebook; 2 – send me a video or voice-message using the messenger app, no more than 2 mins long, which either tells a story or asks a property-related question. That’s it – that’s all you need to do – I’ll use this for inspiration and may include the clip you provide too.

DeFi - CBDC's - Other Things / Mark Pascall

Last week we went down the Bitcoin rabbit hole, and this week we journey even further into the many warrens that make up this exciting (and utterly confounding) blockchain space. We start off by talking about the world of money as we understand it, where our dollars can be broken into a couple of different categories; cash and the rest of it. Cash is the stuff buried in our backyard, stuck behind our couch cushions, and whirring around the black market. The other stuff is the majority of the money we deal with. The banks will generally lend out far more of it than they actually have on hand at anyone time - this is fractional reserve banking.You could say a dollar is born every time you get a loan. It then floats around for a bit and dies, when tax is paid loan is repaid - Hakuna Matata!The next fastest growing category is in digital currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, which were spun out in direct protest to the problematic situation just described. Because blockchain-based digital currencies share one ledger between every computer involved in a decentralised manner, the double spend problem is avoided and we have great traceability of this money. As you’d expect for monopolistic companies and anxious nation states both, these decentralised currencies can make them feel a little insecure. As a result, brands like Facebook have been busy trying to roll out their own digital currencies, while reserve banks around the world are desperately trying to regulate so they can spin out their own version, in the form of Central Bank Digital Currencies. Basically, the promise of ubiquitous digital currencies feels inevitable; it’s really a race to see who arrives first.  It could come down to 'the people' vs 'corporate' vs  some sort of government/central bank alliance As Mark puts it in this episode, “we now live in a global village that doesn’t recognise geographical boundaries. It doesn’t make sense to have a world government, and it’s a really bad idea to have a capitalist corporation doing it, so what else can we do?”Queue DeFi, or decentralized finance. In the broadest of terms, DeFi is a financial system built on the inherently shared nature of the blockchain. Because these systems aren’t owned by any one person (even the Dalai Lama could surely be corrupted at the right price), they’re virtually impossible to be soiled by personal interests.  More recently, the money going into some of these applications has been going gangbusters. Up in the many billions of bucks, people clearly have an appetite for the likes of Augur, for betting, Aave for borrowing and lending, and Uniswap for decentralised crypto exchanges. It has lots of the signs of the ICO boom (and then bust) in 2017, but it also has the promise of a fairer, less corrupt financial system. Of course I would advise with something as inherently speculative as this that any investment should be no more than you’re willing to lose. There is no 0800 number once you’re out there. You’re exposed to the elements. To get in contact with Mark:TheDAO.AgencyPhone/Whatsapp: (+64) 21 223 7132Telegram: @mark_pascallLinkedinKeen to learn more about how you can purchase crypto?

Bitcoin - Hero to Zero - Zero to Hero / Christian Keroles

Christian first got into crypto currency in 2017 when many people, including myself,  were piling on. If you were there at the time, you’ll remember it as a period of pure euphoric derision. There were coins for everything and Bitcoin was on its way to landing on mars — as Christian put it “anything with a ticker was going to the moon.”As we all know, this didn’t last forever and the all time highs set back then haven't [yet] been revisited since. Plenty of people walked off with their tails between their legs, while other more evangelical owners like Christian and myself decided to stick it out. I remember a conversation a couple of years ago with another guest — an intelligent guy — who lamented that ‘it’s a ponzi scheme and it’s going to zero – get your money out now’. Smart fella, sure, but I’m glad I’m glad I didn’t heed his advice. How often do we conflate intelligence with wisdom right?We’re a few years removed from these discussions now and there’s a general consensus that Bitcoin is very far from, as my friend put it, a ponzi scheme. At the core, Bitcoin is uncensorable and incorruptible items of digital value. Many people are put off by the stories about hacks, but fail to understand that these are taking place on exchanges or through digital wallets, quite separate from the bitcoin blockchain itself. Yes, we are right to be sceptical about some of the actors working on the peripheries of Bitcoin, but there’s pretty compelling proof in the legitimacy of the technology itself. Of all of the cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin is the original. It arrived with its founder “Satoshi Nakamoto” (a pseudonym that I successfully butcher on the podcast - Natoshi Saka what?) Nearly 12 years ago the whitepaper was delivered to us, which, Christian posits, is a relatively good reason to assume it will still be around 12 years from now, too. He credits the Lindy effect; a theory that the future life expectancy of a technology is proportional to its current age, so that every additional period of survival implies a longer remaining life expectancy.This brings us to the question of whether Bitcoin will be boom or bust in the long term. Should Christian be right and Bitcoin is still front and centre 12 years from now, it would make sense that it has either been deemed absolutely worthless and the value dropped down to zero, or perhaps that it’s been elevated to becoming a cornerstone value, not tied to any particular country. My guess on which one of these two futures will come about is exactly that — a guess. Christian and I are biased owners of Bitcoin who are both excited in its long term promise so please don’t use this as investment advice on a highly speculative asset. If you’re considering dipping your toes into crypto, do your own due diligence thoroughly and independently.So on that - check out episode 94 here with Easy Crypto for a bit of background as to why I recommend them for any first time Crypto buyer to be.

The National Party / Paul Goldsmith

Today, I’m talking with Paul Goldsmith, National Party’s finance spokesperson in NZ.You could look at running a country as something akin to running a household, running a business, or an exercise in academic thought. Broadly speaking, you could say in NZ these are the main styles you get with the various political partiesPopulism, or a political approach that strives to appeal to ordinary people who feel that their concerns are disregarded by established elite groups, happens on both the left and the right of the political spectrum. Either it’s the financial-elite, or the intellectual-elite that ‘ordinary people’ tend to rage against from time to time. As the increasing wealth-gap materializes, there’s a risk that leaders may exploit this to gain positions of power.So a question for you to ponder – is populism taking hold in NZ already?Leadership is one thing many of us focus on, but what the parties actually stand for is perhaps where we should be voting from. The government can influence how fast and how much wealth you, the everyday person, can create.  Paul Goldsmith has been getting plenty of media attention on the National tax plan recently and specifically, the mistakes made on the calculations, but very little of it on the policy details. Thankfully, the NZ Everyday Investor podcast isn’t a space for ‘gotcha’ journalism, let alone any other type of journalism if I’m honest! People make mistakes, and until decentralised autonomous governance becomes mainstream in politics, we’re stuck with these analogue politicians, and the humanity that comes with it.According to Goldsmith, “no one’s ever taxed their way out of a recession.”That’s not some vacuous rhetoric from another politician, either. Goldsmith was a historian in another life and is the author of the book ‘we won, you lost, eat that,’ NZ’s first and only history of tax. If he was to submit a reissue 10 years from now, it would be very interesting to see how many chapters this particular era would take up in his book. Unfortunately, Labour was the only political party invited that was unable to join the podcast, and believe you me I did try (and am still trying!) – so while we weren’t able to hear their side, it was interesting to hear the reasonably moderate approach from this country’s centre right party today. What National proposes leans on the idea that by encouraging the private sector instead of leaning on government sponsored programmes, you can create the growth needed to power us out of this debt-infused, post-Covid world. If we can improve households through a small boost in the take home pay, and incentivise businesses to invest, then it will potentially allow for greater prosperity and long term jobs. So In reflection of my time speaking to these political figureheads, one thing has become clear above all. Each of the major parties is interested in the same thing; a better, wealthier New Zealand. Some want to slice up the wealth and share it around better, some what to grow the pie, and some just want to clean the oven the pie gets cooked in.We’re all equal at the polls, so let’s make it an informed one this year – governments can influence significantly, the speed at which we can create wealth, and the amount of wealth we can actually enjoy in our future. Hope you enjoyed these brief series!________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Flat-Tax, Freedom, Peanut Butter / David Seymour

Putting Government on a diet & the case for a simplified tax systemIs tax love, or is it tall poppy syndrome? Should we keep printing cash until everybody’s rich and is this even possible, or are we setting our kids up for failure in the future? By all measures, the ACT party is surging. If polling is anything to go by, its sole representative in parliament this past term, David Seymour, is set to be joined by a number of ACT colleagues this next term.So what does the ACT party stand for and what can we expect from the most libertarian-leaning party heading into next month’s vote?Less government, for one thing. “Government is undoubtedly good for some things, but people should, by default, be voting for smaller government,” said Seymour. The belief here is that more money in the hands of everyday Kiwi’s will likely create better aggregated outcomes than a centralised ‘wealth redistributor’. From an outsider’s perspective, it’s initially quite easy to agree with this. When I pay tax I don’t feel the “love” (as the Greens so kindly described it recently). In fact, I’m still waiting for a ‘thank-you’ card for all the working groups I’ve funded lately. It’s not so much the magnitude f tax paid, it’s how it’s being spent that some take issue with. Of course there is a role for government still - when it comes to health, infrastructure and education - some government of course is absolutely essential. When you're literally the country at the end of the earth  though, we need to be efficient - really efficient. In the short run, perhaps increasing taxes on the most wealthy (subject to how that’s determined!), can potentially unlock some dollars and create some momentum in the economy - in the short run. This of course assumes an efficient and effective re-distribution of that wealth. But what happens after that wealth is redistributed if you’ve murdered the golden goose that produces it in the process. Well nothing I guess, it's dead. That's the end game of every other country that's been tempted into following the ideals of socialism.So it was disappointing, albeit expected, when Seymour reminded me that they’ll be pausing their 17.5% flat tax rate in light of our recent economic plights. The proposal, suggested before the pandemic, simplified tax across the board, so every dollar earned whether it’s your thousandth or your millionth, attracts the same tax rate. Simple. Efficient. Motivating. If you’re ambitious, knowing you can keep more of what you can earn , should be music to your ears. And hey, if it incentivises you to earn 3x more as a result, you could end up paying the same nominal amount of tax regardless, but with a larger smile on your dial.Seymour argues that a flat-tax would cut down the bulk of the administration (increase efficiencies). More importantly, it could greatly reduce the likelihood that thousands of family trusts and limited liability companies will find new life as tax avoidance vehicles.The flat-tax though, while  potentially rational in regular economic conditions, simply couldn’t fly with the sheer volumes of debt we’ve recently taken on and will continue to take on. Having said that - if it's really true that we cannot tax our way out of a recession, perhaps there's still a case for it?Until change happens, we still have more of the same type of tax-system in NZ - You could call a progressive tax system “tall poppy syndrome in the tax code,” but it undoubtedly has benefits for a country wrestling with a considerable recession.For further reading:Use of Knowledge in Society: <a...

Wealth Tax / James Shaw

For too long I think, we’ve fixated on income exclusively and not on capital gains when it comes to making investment decisions, and tax policy also. The Green Party have plans to change that.We’re taught from a young age to get educated, get a good job, pay your taxes, repay debt, and then invest, ideally in things that produce positive cashflow. This, default, ‘value-investing’ paradigm places a relatively low reliance on expected gains we should be making from increasing property values or investments. When incomes are now increasingly likely to be at risk of being disrupted in a post-Covid world, and when central banks and politicians, are more than happy to debase our currency a al quantitative easing, is this really the paradigm we should be using in the new world?Our tax system, also supports this baseline assumption that you’re rich if you earn ‘high income’ (a relatively relative statement!). You may think we pay a reasonable amount of tax already in NZ, although I suppose the less you earn, the higher you think the tax rate should be, but only on those who earn more than you. So while your income is taxed on the way into investments, in many (but not all) cases, the growth in your investments is largely un-taxed. This favours those who are ‘already there’, and makes it harder for those trying to get there. The fruit the tree produces gets the attention, but the tree itself is left alone.So is it true that in the new world, gains on investments (capital gains) perhaps can be considered more reliable than our incomes? If it is, understandably, government will try to position itself to benefit from this trend – perpetual money creation to solve the immediate problem will only get us so far.I’m talking with James Shaw today, co-leader of the Green Party. They’ve come up with a proposed wealth-tax – and while I (and perhaps you too) don’t like the idea of giving away my fruit, as well as my wood, they’re trying to solve a problem I think we can all agree needs to be solved – the increasing wealth gap. Next week I’ll have another perspective on this from one of the other parties, but I hope, no matter where you are on the political spectrum, you enjoy today’s show._________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

The Intelligent, Lazy, Investor / Cole Hauptfuhrer

There’s 4 types of investors out there, well, there is according to our guest today – You can be: Lazy+stupid, Hard-working+smart, Hard-working+stupid or you can be intelligent and lazy. In a financial world dominated by hard-working and smart voices, it’s hard to get guidance around money matters without feeling like you’re not doing enough, or you’re not smart enough. In today’s show, my guest is Cole Hauptfuhrer. Cole learned how to gamble at the age he started school. He learnt how to invest on a boat, then over 4 years he increased his investments more than 12-fold while beating The S&P 500 by more than 1,150%. Cole believes in focus investing – focus investors invest infrequently, and only invest when they possess high conviction that the odds are heavily in their favor, and then they bet big. I guess there’s the connection to gambling. The difference between gambling though (where the house always wins) and investing – is that it’s possible find positions where the probability and magnitude of a gain is stacked in your favour. Cole is really passionate about putting out content to help people take trans-formative action, at scale, without getting hurtTo quote Cole himself, "Investing's hardest actions are to research, buy, and hold.” This is surely the mantra of any intelligent, yet lazy investorCheck out Find Fat Fish here.Please note that Cole is not a registered or authorized financial adviser and is not on the Financial Services Provider Register (FSPR). As with any guest  or topic on this show, listeners need to do their own research. I will continually have guests on that have a broad range of views that may challenge me and others, but this is not a specific endorsement in any way to acquire of dispose of their services. _________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Neo Banks for the Neo World / Travis Tyler

Neo Banks for the Neo WorldIn this episode, reformed banker Travis Tyler and I discuss building a new model of banking, open banking, and break down some of the challenges neo banking faces long term. After a couple of lock downs this year, I’m reminded about how redundant so much of what bank branches do. Like many things, Covid defines what essential is. If it’s not essential, it’s not going to be profitable in the new world.Travis, joining me from Sydney today, works for 86:400, an Australian “neo bank”. Neo banks are held to the same government standards and regulations as traditional banking, but what’s different is their lack of legacy. With smaller teams, and no bricks and mortar, neo banks are well-positioned to rebuild what banking should be, based on what customers want. Neo banks are a tasty option for tech-savvy people initially, but I can’t help but think this is the way of the future - a future that will be extremely disruptive for the status quo.86:400, being the number of seconds in a day, is a company launched late last year, perfectly timed amidst the massive anti-bank blowback following the Royal Commission’s stiff review of Australian banking behaviour. “Our whole model is built around delivering customer success with the belief that business success will follow,” said Tyler.They’ve managed to do pretty well for themselves since launch, all things considered, even introducing Australia’s first neo bank mortgage, with some competitive rates to match. The question for them now is, how can they thrive and make money in the current climate? Neo banks have been famously struggling to make a profit internationally, but 86:400 has a view that they can win with a broader product offering and an alliance with mortgage advisers for efficient distribution.Where do we stand on neo banks in NZ?New Zealand still seems to be stumbling around at the start line to get on the neo bank trend, with no local companies of the kind operational yet, despite rumours that Revolut might be eyeing up our pristine shores. More on this later.The most significant point of resistance so far has been our non-existent open banking. The idea with open banking involves setting customer data free to roam the wild in an attempt to provide more of a benefit to the end-user. This allows for more streamlined money management for customers as well as encouraging a more competitive market.Since the calls from Kris Faafoi for banks to share APIs, banks have potentially made a start down this path, but unless they set the data free soon, they risk being disrupted in a big, big way. Banks, like many financial institutions, thrive on customer inertia, so open banking presents a potential short term threat to their profitability. Will they play the game, resist the inevitable, or gobble up the threat? Time will tell. It’s going to take balsy leadership to lead the charge here. Travis discusses open banking, the pros of neo banks and cons of legacy banks (from a reformed banker), and the potential for New Zealand to learn from the Aussies as we move into a new wave of digital disruption. Click here for more information on 86:400_________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Money for Life / Liz Koh

What does retirement even mean in 2020? As our lives get longer, and our careers span far beyond what generations before had, the lines are getting very blurry around when our retirement actually kicks off. It’s not so much that your working life has ended, it’s just going through a transition.Retirement isn’t nearly as two dimensional as it gets credit for either. In fact, it takes many different shapes over the years where we transition from our professional life to our very last year — and each of these stages has different financial requirements. Liz slices it up into three key stages which form a simple way to plan for the amount of money you’re going to need. The ‘live it up’ stage: You’re still fit enough to give life a good thrashing - just like right now, but with more time to spend on yourself.The ‘fix it up’ stage: You’re a little older, and perhaps not so keen to travel, but the house/hips/eyes really needs a bit of work.The ‘wind it down’ phase: We’re on to the final approach - here it’s about spending your last years exactly how you want.Many believe that we’re ready for retirement when we have enough money invested that can generate sufficient returns without having to work — what I call the “nirvana of passive income”. It’s a tantalising thought, but when it sends us to the grave boasting a multi-million dollar empire that we barely touch, is that really success?The older generation is still singing the passive income tune (it worked for them so why not?), but at some point, you need to do yourself a favour and smell the roses. Give yourself permission to spend the money you worked hard to accumulate.  You can’t take it with you, your kids may not want it, and life really is short after all. Liz argues you’re better off taking the second cruise trip, in fact, while you’re at it, go ahead and tick every damn thing off your retirement bucket list as you can! In this podcast, Liz and I dispel some of the myths around reverse equity mortgages, discuss the potential benefits of investing in a Lifetime income annuity, talk about the pros and cons to dealing with mortgages early, and help tie it all together with the example of a couple nearing retirement.Reading:Reach out if you’d like a copy of Liz’s E-Book “Buckets of Money in Retirement”.

Retail Investor Mania / Hamesh Sharma

Hamesh Sharma is a Portfolio Manager at Pathfinder Asset ManagementHoodies, onesies and jumpsuit investors may trump the suit and tie investors in the nice corner office. Hamesh Sharma from Pathfinder, joins me in a discussion around the rise of retail investor mania. Is it inevitable retail mania will end in tears, or is a fundamental shift in mainstream investing at play?Retail investors — meaning regular people investing on behalf of themselves, not big institutions — are on the rise. According to one online investment platform, these Mum and Dad investors are now accounting for 25% of the share market, a number which looks to be steadily growing.With wage subsidy money lining many accounts and sports gambling mostly out of order, Hamesh has watched in terror as these new retail investors emptied hard-earned savings into the likes of Air New Zealand, a company burning hundreds of millions of dollars with planes parked up at airports around the world with no border opening in sight. Why? Because the price has decreased and the government will surely bail them out - it must be a bargain!It’s a pattern than many newer investors exhibit when they’re starting out. We can observe this when looking at companies like Hertz, which saw a stock price resurgence in the fourth quarter of their bankruptcy proceedings; Nikola Corp, a company with no product to sell even had a short spurt where it was valued higher than Ford; and Tesla, whose price jumped considerably upon announcing they’d be splitting their stocks, despite it having no material impact on the company’s value. If you’ve been investing for a while, these signs and symptoms of mania should worry you. It seems to laugh in the face of reason, seen most absurdly in the popularity of BarStool Sports’ Davey Day Trader.  Markets should respond to logic — a company’s value should be proportionate to its fundamentals; earnings, track record, that kind of stuff. Miseducation among investors appears to be at an all-time high.Then again, I can’t help but wonder, could these newer investors teach the status quo a thing or two about the world we’re heading into? Perhaps pure, illogical speculation in brand names is what ‘investing’ has been for a long time – maybe there’s not much of a difference between owning Bitcoin and Berkshire Hathaway?Back to mainstream thinking though: Just because a stock that was once high is now low, doesn’t mean it’s a bargain. The markets aren’t stupid, and to assume they are is a sure-fire way to get your face ripped off. Sure, you’re going to find examples of companies that you see as being chronically undervalued by the market, but make sure you do your homework to understand their fundamentals before giving them your money. We’re seeing plenty of little bubbles forming, nothing yet on the scale of the infamous dot com bubble of the nineties, but something very much worth keeping a watchful eye on.Many Kiwi’s, myself included, have benefitted by having quality access to the markets, but education is vital to reduce the downside risks associated with providing access to all. Even if Davey Day Trader is right, and the ‘old fundamentals’ no longer apply, eventually the market will factor this in. In today’s podcast, myself and Hamesh get real on this rise of retail investments, bubbles, irrational trading, investing vs gambling, and why, ultimately, more investors are really a good thing for the economy. https://www.path.co.nz/https://caresaver.co.nz/Davey Day Trader...

The Rise and The Risks of Night Trading / Ananish Chaudhuri

The Rise and The Risks of Night Trading ——————————————————Professor Ananish Chaudhuri of the University of Auckland has made a career out of building games to test out economics theories. His most recent research looks into the impact of sleepiness on the behaviors of the growing class of ‘night traders’. Our podcast digs into trading, investing, the differences, and why, above all else, the most critical investment strategy is actually to have a strategy in the first place.  ——————————————————Would you consider it a good idea to hop behind the wheel with a few beers under your belt? What about trading stocks? There’s plenty of evidence to show that drunk people are far more likely to underestimate the downside of a decision, which is a key reason why 16,000 New Zealanders still drink-drive every year. I sat down with Professor Ananish Chaudhuri from the University of Auckland to figure out why, and how these same risk management impairments people display when they’re inebriated, also extend to people who’re exhausted.Years ago, Chaudhuri read a Forbes article looking into the rise of a particular new investor — the night trader. Armed with his understanding of how exhaustion impacts the likes of shift workers, he set out to learn whether people chugging red bulls late into the night trading stocks were ultimately doing themselves a disservice.The resulting research, which asked uni students to trade at varying hours in the day (and night), had some intriguing results for a growing number of Kiwi traders. “People who were sleepy made systematic mistakes,” said Chaudhuri. Even knowing how the game works, is not enough to inform participants well.You would assume the old rule of thumb applies here - buy low and sell high. In reality, the opposite of this occurs. “They buy late in the game at high prices, and hold on to these stocks much later. So when the market crashes, they lose money.”Not only that, but ‘alert people,’ those working at more optimal times, were intentionally taking advantage of the sleepy suckers. One of the most interesting things to learn for investors reading about this study, is that it doesn't make a difference if you're playing with small or large sums of money. Even though the participants of the study were working with chump change, Chaudhuri says that risk taking habits with small sums are generally consistent when the same people are dealing with far bigger numbers.Now this isn't another safety announcement around what you should or should not allow your adult-children to do with their money. What we know is that there’s real value in what traders do (provides liquidity and price discovery etc). Some say trading can be a profitable exercise too (well at least at the start they say this). There's two things I can say about this for certain about people who trade (and I include myself here!): They’re either going to get an expensive education or, they could lose money and end up just as dumb. As much as I don’t want people to lose money, I think there’s still more to be gained by investor experimentation than there is by staying away from trading._______________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Nudging Towards Wealth / Ravi Dutta-Powell

In today’s show we’re coveringNudge economicsSave More Tomorrow Behavioural economics and its applications in personal financeThere's always been a significant disconnect between academia and real-life – if you disagree with this comment, you’re an academic, and that’s okay, some of my best friends are academics. It’s important though, that this tension exists between real-life and acedemia because without a higher degree of thought and analysis of data, additional insights can’t be gained - which ultimately handicaps those in the field. On the other hand, without a good understanding of the issues found in the field, researchers can often make insightful discoveries in potentially redundant areas.What I really like about behavioural economics, is that it provides potentially a better framework to understand how people make decisions and why – When it comes to making investment decisions from a wide range of choice, often everyday investors choose options that may not be the best – even the experienced investors out there – what’s interesting here though is that these investment decisions can be predictably irrational. This sounds bad but it’s not a put-down, it’s simply acknowledging reality. When it comes to making good financial decisions, just like with eating well and exercising, having choice and access to the right information is important, but I think there’s actually more value in understanding why people actually choose to do what they do.To learn more about the work that Ravi does, please visit the team here: https://www.bi.team/To watch Richard Thaler present to the Chicago School of Economics, then watch this. ______________________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

FX Risk for Everyday Investors / Roger Kerr

Roger Kerr is an expert in the NZ dollar, & executive chairman of Barrington Treasury Services NZ Limited.In today’s episode, Roger joins me to cover off why and how companies use a fancy technique called ‘hedging’ to offset the risks that come about when dealing with foreign currencies, and explains why the Reserve Bank is dead set on driving the NZD down in relation to the USD.Hedging is a seriously important strategy when dealing with the flux of moving exchange rates, but it’s something too few investors bother to check out when investing in the likes of US-based ETF’s (Exchange Traded Funds).Take KiwiSaver for example, which often involves investing into overseas funds, how many members actually know what foreign exchange strategy is used by their fund managers? If we're taking a risk, no matter what it is, we should be adequately compensated for it - this includes foreign exchange risk.Now, if you as an investor are spreading the love between different sectors, industries and asset classes, we call this diversification — you hear plenty about this term when investing, but it applies on so many levels. To understand how this same philosophy applies when dealing with foreign markets, consider what happens if you want to invest in a business that’s in the US which relies on imports. If the value or the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar declines, it could cost the business more than it did before to buy goods, which can shrink their profits for you as a shareholder. A really well diversified portfolio may also include shares in companies based around the world – this is a way to offload or hedge foreign exchange risk.In today’s episode, currency expert Roger Kerr joins me to cover off why and how companies offload some of their foreign currency risk. Now if you don’t have a finance degree, don’t worry, we’re covering the basics here today, while still providing an on-ramp to higher understanding. Hopefully at the end of the show, you have at least one more question to consider before making your next investment move.___________________________________________________________________________The NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.

Debt, NZ Property, Gold and Bitcoin / Reece Reilly

In this unique episode, the tables have turned and the host is now the interviewee. Reece Reilly hosts a podcast and Youtube channel called KiwiTalkzIn my travels recently around the central North Island of NZ I popped in to see Reece and have a casual, un-scripted conversation around some topics that he and his listeners are interested in.Whether it’s health, having children, politics or money – it’s so hard to learn about anything new without being uncomfortable every now and then with opposing schools of thought. This is especially true if you already have what you believe is a solid understanding in any subject matter. I guess it’s human nature- When you think you’ve figured something out with your learning, it’s easy to be quite rigid about your belief’s and views. Unfortunately, when it comes to investing in particular, I think that many everyday Kiwi’s shy away from learning more because of two reasons: Firstly, they may hear a view that contradicts what they already believe as true, and secondly, sometimes people are put off by those who are are 'quite smart' in their field. Take property investing as an example, as this is something the discussion centered on today: I know some really successful property investors that buy property across the country as fast as they’re able to, then use the rental income from the tenants to pay down the debt over time – the idea is that you as an investor are leveraging off the ability of your tenants to reduce the debt for you – which, when you’re ready to retire, creates a portfolio of cashflow positive properties producing passive income. On the other hand, I know many investors that choose to buy a smaller amount of property in the major city centres only – the thinking here is that the capital gains that can be grown over time, can eventually be harvested by selling off some property later on at time of retirement. Arguably, the end position is similar, but the journey is different. Is one method better than the other? Well if you spoke to those in each of those two camps, they would absolutely suggest it is. In a sense, they’ve added to the complexity problem with how everyday people can build wealth by not allowing much room for opposing ideas .So In this show, we’re taking a pragmatic look at  some of big questions that we all potentially have at some stage in our investing lives: What’s good debt and what’s bad debt? Should we reduce our mortgage or should we instead invest more? What’s the best way to respond to market uncertainty? Should everyday people invest in Gold and Bitcoin?________________________________________Like what you’ve heard?You can really help with the success of the NZ Everyday Investor by doing the following:1- Tell your friends!2- Write a review on Facebook, or your favourite podcast player3- Help support the mission of our show on Patreon by contributing here4- To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on Youtube: 5- Sign up to our newsletter hereNZ Everyday Investor is on a mission to increase financial literacy and make investing more accessible for the everyday person!Please ensure that you act independently from any of the content provided in these episodes - it should not be considered personalised financial advice for you.

Resilience, Re-start, and Reset

I reached out recently to some business coaches during the lock-down, just to get a sense for how things are going in the business community.Small to medium sized enterprises employ so many Kiwi's, and therefore by default, many are dependent on them to succeed. What's been troubling business has also been troubling individuals also - whether it's our business or our careers, this period of time can test us all.What's our response to this? Shrink back / let things die, or tough it out, take ground, and innovate? It's actually not a simple answer!We're breaking this discussion broadly into three parts:Resilience: This means the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. It can also characterize the ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape.Re-start: Perhaps it's time to let your career die/ or let your business die. This is super hard, but IF it's the right thing to do, allowing the death to occur fully, is necessary before anything completely new can occur.Reset: It's important during troubling times,to take stock, and re-align to what's truly important to you - this may not just be about finance.In this episode, we're not talking about 'investments', we're instead focusing the discussion on the investor. Our income, or our current base of wealth and how we invest it, has way more to do with what happens in the mind than it does in the wallet.A bit about my special guests:Frikkie and Pao Le RouxThis husband and wife team have over 40 years combined business and management experience working with executives and managers in business.Frikkie has received several international awards for recruitment and increasing sales results.Pao’s background in marketing, experience in training and coaching, and previous business ownership bring significant value to clients.Steve ClarkSteve has a heart for helping people and seeing them prosper.Steve draws on a career in risk management, training, controls assurance and pastoral support in NZ and overseas.As a Chartered Accountant Steve brings experience across various industry sectors and business processes – ‘from boiler room to board room.

Changing Mortgage Gears in Retirement / Shaun Drylie

Today’s episode is brought to you by the word -Retirement – perhaps it’s a long way off for you – but it’s important that we discuss this every now and then – and so that’s what today’s episode is really all about.  Many people, either on purpose or by accident have a simple, default plan for retirement – Get debt-free on a home, then live off super and hopefully have this topped up some KiwiSaver funds. A study done in 2018 showed that actual spending of a typical retired couple, revealed a shortfall in weekly income by just over $200 per week to fund a very basic lifestyle. So where can the rest come from? It has to come from somewhere right – so where?It could come by working longer – that’s fine, if health permits, but working for life – really?It could come by selling the home – but what if you don’t want to move to a smaller home, further away from where potentially your family and friends still live?Apart from down-sizing the home, or working later on, the options are limited for retirees unless there’s sufficient other investments that they can draw down onAnother question is this – aren’t we allowed to have more? In retirement, don't you want to travel, spend time with family, help the kids with getting started with property. How can you make up the shortfall if everything is tied up in your home to simply live well – then beyond that, is there anything one could do to account for the unexpected costs you’ve experienced your entire life – these aren’t going away when you retire.But in essence, If you have a choice today (and I appreciate some don’t) and if you had the power to influence your future (which hey, you do by the way),  wouldn’t you prefer to choose an awesome lifestyle in retirement? I certainly would!Today I’m talking with Shaun Drylie, Group CEO at SBS bank – relying on property is tricky with retirement planning, because it’s illiquid – it cant be converted to cash quickly. It’s why with retirement planning, it may not be included in the tool box of things that can be consumed in your later years. So, for the everyday investor, those who do think property is the be all and end all when it comes to building wealth - could the equity in a debt-free home that we’re aiming for in retirement, be accessed to create an additional income source to supplement our lifestyle needs? The answer is yes, and it’s not as ugly as you may think.Standard, orthodox financial advice, disagrees with classifying your main home as an investment. In reality however, the bulk of people who own property do actually think of their home as an investment – Is it time for us in the investment community to account for this somewhat heretical viewpoint I wonder?A reverse mortgage has traditionally been frowned upon and I totally get why. In a sense, you’re turning your back on the habits that got you into the position you’re in – specifically, the position of having a debt-free home. Idealistically sure, it’s great to keep your family home separate and fund retirement by other means – but you can’t ignore the reality that for many, the only other option to supplement retirement needs is to sell up, and move into a property that you may not be ready for. Often orthodox advice here is at odds with practical advice – and what I mean by this is simple: If you can stay living in your home, yet access capital in that property to live off of, then why not? Interest rates have been trending down for decades and in true fashion of blaming Covid for everything, what we’re seeing now is an acceleration of this trend – lower interest rates for longer, and higher asset prices will be a high probability outcome. To be honest, I’ve frowned upon these reverse equity mortgages in the past – but I think some new thinking is...

Practical Personal Finance Principles / Darcy Ungaro

To invest – or to grow wealth – or to build anything for that matter, you need to get the foundations down right – otherwise whatever you build may need to be torn down. One of the foundations we all need to sort out, and to check periodically, is our own personal financial management skills – this is where we need to delve into the topic of personal finance or money management.If you're self-employed, please check out the other episodes:Wealth -building when you're self-employedFinancial exclusion and the independent earnerMainstream thought around personal finance could somewhat be summed up as follows:- Save yourself wealthy- Aim for 'rich enough'- Don't pursue wealth as much as keeping to your budget.What I’ve observed in my life and especially in the lives of those I work with who’ve done well with money, is that if you want to move to a place above average, shrinking back is not the best strategy – taking ground is.  Often the strategy to  'take ground' can be messy, contrarian, and personal to you . This is something that's hard to cover in detail to any great extent, but it's important to try and not shrink back from the topic, so as to not offend those easily offended.In this episode, I aim to offend members of the cult of frugality, those who strive to repay their mortgage, everyone with a side hustle that involves making jam, and everyone not named Sue. We're covering principles like:Getting a real jobStarting at the endPaying yourself firstThe magical power of giving and receivingGood debt vs bad debtThe magical power of wordsGood buffers, bad buffers, and other peoples' buffersBeing accountableGetting into obscene levels of debt, as fast as you can.Most of what I say you can take seriously in this episode, but some of it is simply to annoy those who take themselves too seriously - hope you enjoy!PS: You may have also noticed, I didn't include 'budgeting' in this episode. Budgeting IS actually very important, but apparently not so important to include here - I promise to cover this somewhat 'sexy' topic in future episodes!____________________________________Like what you’ve heard?You can really help with the success of the NZ Everyday Investor by doing the following:1- Tell your friends!2- Write a review on Facebook, or your favourite podcast player3- Help support the mission of our show on Patreon by contributing here4- To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on Youtube: 5- Sign up to our newsletter hereNZ Everyday Investor is on a mission to increase financial literacy and make investing more accessible for the everyday person!Please ensure that you act independently from any of the content provided in these episodes - it should not be considered personalised financial advice for you.

Inflation - Friend of Foe? Chris Tennent-Brown

Central banks around the world are churning out new currency at phenomenal levels right now – we call this quantitative easing or QE. The idea is to fill up the giant pothole left in our economies after a rather unpleasant first half of 2020.As we've covered already on this show, there's a huge difference between value and price / between currency and money. With all this money printing going right now– does this really lead to an increase in value over time, or just price levels?Specifically, as investors, we’re justifiably concerned about this thing called inflation taking off as a result of quantitative easing. What if the currency that denominates our investments is watered down – has our net worth really increased?In this episode – we’re asking the question about inflation – is it a friend or foe?Chris Tennent Brown is the senior wealth economist at ASB bank, and he’s my special guest today. At the end of this episode, you’ll understand:What is inflation?How do central banks control it?Why 'money printing' may not actually generate the inflation that logically, you'd expect.Most importantly, we going to cover what we, as everyday investors should be doing, to hedge against inflation when trying to grow wealth. ____________________________________Like what you’ve heard?You can really help with the success of the NZ Everyday Investor by doing the following:1- Tell your friends!2- Write a review on Facebook, or your favourite podcast player3- Help support the mission of our show on Patreon by contributing here4- To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on Youtube: 5- Sign up to our newsletter hereNZ Everyday Investor is on a mission to increase financial literacy and make investing more accessible for the everyday person!Please ensure that you act independently from any of the content provided in these episodes - it should not be considered personalised financial advice for you.

The Hunt for Yield / David Boyle

Investing in assets which grow in price over time, hopefully above the rate of inflation and after fees, is the antidote for evils of inflation. Investing involves risk though – risk that what you invest could go down in price and risk that you may not be able to get your money out in a hurry. If you’ve decided to invest to grow your base of wealth – here’s three things to keep in mind, or three golden rules: - INVEST REGULARLY. This is so important: timing the market where you buy low and sell high is great perhaps for some, but for most of us, we cant get the timing right. Dollar cost averaging is the best way to consistently scale in over time to get the exposure you want, without getting the timing piece perfect. - GET ASSET ALLOCATION RIGHT. A good portfolio will have the following ingredients, cash, fixed interest, property and shares. The mix or blend of these different asset classes is crucial to strike the right balance between liquidity (that’s the ability to convert your investment into cash quickly), risk (which is the possibility the price of your investment could drop) and returns (which is your compensation for risk and liquidity) - START WITH THE END IN MIND. Most investors, especially when starting out, view the whole investing thing as a game – a game they want to win, but there’s so much more to it. What is it that you’re trying to achieve? Have you factored in how much you need to live the life you’re aiming for in retirement? What about your kids, what about your family, what are you doing with your home in retirement plus how long do you think you’re going to live for– these are all things that can help set the appropriate amount you need to set aside from today, for tomorrow to be taken care of In today’s episode I’m talking with David Boyle from Mint Asset MnagementThe Hunt for Yield is our topic. In an environment where interest rates are super low, and there’s a significant disconnect between Main St and Wall St., how can investors still do well, without losing everything?
