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. The Generate KiwiSaver Scheme are helping me reach this goal. Cheers Generate. Head to generatekiwisaver.co.nz/change to find out more.

But what about our own 12 days? Today we are looking at how we can push ourselves to find our own 12 days of Christmas. How can we improve our finances each day for 12 days? Setting us up well for the festive season and 2025. I will get you set for a prosperous 2025 with these 12 actions.

This is a re-release of an earlier podcast that other listeners have found very useful.

Last week we discussed the fact that the economy is highly likely to now be in a recession. There is no ‘growth’ and it is contracting. I’ve seen social media comments about the economy going backward and that means that people feel less hope about their future. My question is, did you measure yours? Yeah, your economy? That’s a great economy to be more concerned with.

The World Economic Forum, the country is cooked, the dollar is going to zero, capitalism doesn’t work, we need a capital gains tax….we’ve all heard these things online or from our mates. Now what? What are these people actually doing with this information? Are you going down deep deep rabbit holes to convince yourself of wild situations and then not taking any action? Why!? We explore some solutions to these common arguments we see online.

I have a goal to help 100,000 Kiwis improve their financial literacy. Generate KiwiSaver Scheme has sponsored Keep The Change to help me reach more people and make this a reality. Cheers Generate. Head to generatekiwisaver.co.nz/change to find out more.

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? Let's explore.
