Property: Is The Fuse Now Lit? Ep 431 / Nolan Matthias
The recent drop in the official cash rate (OCR) by 0.25% has sparked a flurry of speculation about the future of the property market.

However high on hopium property hodlers are, reality is a bit more nuanced. Read more

The Power Of People’s Money, Ep 429 / Louise Macfarlane
As usual, there are only two types of people in the world.
1 – Those who blindly trust governments and most centralised systems: They find it easy to overlook the flaws in currency manipulated by interest rates and new supply injections from a centralised authority, like government and central banks.
2 – The ‘weirdos’ who ‘think differently’: They understand the importance of money created by the people, for the people. Read more.

Thinking Your Way To Riches, Ep 428 / Hayden Brown
I’ve observed many different drivers for wealth: some are running from poverty, others are driven by greed, seeking comfort, or fulfilling a purpose. “Some dance to remember, some dance to forget.”
The reasons we think the way we do, and the lives we end up living, can be a bit of a mystery. But the reality that our headspace affects our world isn’t anything new.

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 government’s 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.
