In this long overdue episode of the NZ Wealth & Risk podcast, I speak about conflicts of interest. I talk about conflicts in general, but also how my understanding of how conflicts of interest have the potential to influence advice has informed some of the important decisions I've made in relation to my business, Fairhaven Wealth. 

You won't walk away from this podcast with anything immediately actionable. But it will increase your awareness of, and sensitivity, to conflicts of interest and a greater appreciation about how they can influence our own behaviour and the behaviour of others.

Sonnie talks about luck and uncertainty, springboarding off some of the themes in his book, Luck (available on Amazon Kindle).

No one knows exactly what the future holds for us. This isn't necessarily a bad thing - life would be boring if we knew what lays ahead. Uncertainty also creates opportunities. However, sometimes bad things happen. In this episode of the New Zealand Wealth and Risk podcast, Sonnie talks about insurance within this context - as a tool for managing certain types of risks and uncertainties.

When it comes to the risks we face, career risk is one that is often overlooked. Being displaced from the workforce, however, can have serious implications - financially and otherwise.

Considering retirement planning in its broader context - not just in financial terms, and also in the context of a whole-of-plan plan.
