Keep The Change

Whether you need it to ease a bit of financial pressure or work toward a big goal, here’s how you can make it happen, even in one of the toughest economies New Zealand has seen since the 1990s. I continue to maintain that if we teach more people how to make a bit of extra cash, it will solve a lot of the individual problems people face. Many people feel stuck financially but don’t realise money is EVERYWHERE and that they can get their hands on it. I am going to step you through how to attack this.Hey thanks for listening!

2024 was a grind for many, and 2025 might bring much more of the same. I am sorry, I am sorry. I am forever optimistic though. I know everyone is hoping for a better year and excited about how it all just changes and changes quickly, but I am more realistic to how slowly an economy turns. However, while the challenges are real, so are the opportunities. If you’re willing to tune out the noise, focus on what you can control, and keep showing up. And that is what we do around here (see the last 2 weeks of Money Mail)! So here's how to do it...Hey thanks for listening!

I recently heard someone say: “It’s never been easier to succeed.” But they quickly followed it with a truth that hit me like opening the email inbox after the break. “It’s also never been easier to get distracted.” Aint that the truth! So I started thinking about what gets us distracted? Of course, we are going to take a financial lense on this. Let’s explore some softly, softly ones to start with and then trigger the masses.Hey thanks for listening!

This is a re-release of an earlier podcast that other listeners have found very useful.Recently I bought a PIE fund and I’m not talking steak and cheese ones. I had a bit of spare cash sitting in a bank account and I wanted to ‘make my money work for me’ and am always looking for ways for my money to have babies and help subsidise my life/costs. I considered a Term Deposit where I deposit my money for a set term and in return get given a % for doing so. Then I thought about a PIE Fund, here's why...Hey thanks for listening!

In this episode, I sit down with Bryce who shares his transformation: both financially and professionally, thanks to the lessons he learned from Keep The Change.After years of feeling stuck in a high-paying but limiting career, loaded with mortgages, credit card debt, and even Afterpay purchases for dog food, Bryce had a KTC wake-up call. He realised the power of accountability, mindset, and the importance of taking control of his situation.Fast forward through countless hours of study, sacrifices, and laser focus, and he’s now stepping into a new role as a mortgage adviser in Mikey’s team at Guardian Smith. To do this, Bryce had to leave behind a comfortable salary to pursue something with no ceiling, no excuses, and full ownership of the outcome.We talk about breaking free from bad financial habits, overcoming limiting mindsets, and what it means to back yourself completely. This is an inspiring story of taking risks, embracing discomfort, and building a future of purpose and growth.If you’re feeling stuck or searching for your next opportunity, this episode will remind you that with the right mindset and determination, anything is possible. Bring it on!If you need to find Bryce, do that here: https://www.instagram.com/kiwi_angler/I believe 100,000 kiwi with better financial literacy will create a better New Zealand.

When did we get so good at dismissing other people's actions to keep ourselves stuck and upset at our own situation? It makes no sense to me. Focusing on what you don’t have will only hold you back. You need to flip your mind to start looking at your own opportunities. This will give you a good reminder to focus on what you do have and ignore those who decide not to live like this.Hey thanks for listening!

David is back to teach us about exploitative car loans, and one lender who is now being prosecuted by the Commerce Commission. We can all learn what to look out for when taking on debt.We also discuss how KiwiSaver hardship applications are also on the rise, with more people turning to their retirement savings to manage debt, cover legal costs, or cope with reduced income. We discuss the limitations of this approach, how it often leaves broader financial issues unresolved, and the thing David sees that that upsets him the most.We also again highlight the importance of free, confidential, and non-judgmental budget services like MoneyTalks, available to everyone in NZ. I have a goal to help 100,000 Kiwis improve their financial literacy.

In this example, we will look at purchasing a home over a ten-year window and the things that you should consider paying for during that ten years. Hey thanks for listening!

September GDP data just came in at -1.0. I had to refresh my screen to see if that was accurate. -1.1% in the June quarter. Brutal! We are living through a seriously gnarly engineered recession. The worst since the early 90s. But...we are still here. How good. I hope that some of the Money Mail lessons have been catalysts for you to improve your financial story and your ability to navigate this tough time.

Everyone’s favourite property saying - that it doubles every 10 years and property is ‘safe as houses’. But how true is this for the coming decade and why does Sir Bill English think they will be stagnant for 15 years (in real terms). Regardless, shouldn’t this scare us not excite us? Don’t we need to be thinking bigger than a double every 10 years? We are capable of so much more! This is to get you thinking critically about a common property promotional slogan.

In this episode, we dive into the evolving landscape of financial mentoring in New Zealand. We explore the growing focus on upskilling and qualifying financial mentors, the challenges of advocacy work, and what the future might look like with fewer volunteers and a streamlined approach to budgeting support.As the hardest time of year approaches, we discuss the financial pressure households face during the holiday season, from Christmas spending to January's financial fallout. Learn how financial mentors like David Verry provide critical support, balancing weekly cash flows, educating communities, and advocating for systemic change. David shares insights from their dual role in financial mentoring and community education, providing a "fence at the top of the cliff" and an "ambulance at the bottom."Finally, we highlight the vital role of free, confidential, and non-judgmental budget services in helping the “working poor” and other underrepresented groups. Join us for this a solid conversation on financial resilience, systemic challenges, and the essential work of financial mentoring in Aotearoa.I believe 100,000 kiwi with better financial literacy will create a better New Zealand.

I started reading an eye-opening book about retirement. The book: Cracking Open The Nest Egg by Martin Hawes. I highly suggest this for your parents or yourself, no matter your age. I was struck by an example for people to aim for when retiring. The idea is that you get to 65 with no debt on your house, and you have some funds set aside to invest that you can draw down on for the next 30 years. Sounds easy right? But does the math, math?

Then we had dramatically lower interest rates through the 'demic and then inflation hit us, meaning interest rates to rise and some assets have actually now decreased in value as interest rates have increased. Now we are back to decreasing interest rates once again. So, what does this mean for asset prices in your ability to keep up with them?
