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. https://nzeverydayinvestor.simplecast.com/episodes/c560c4e8 (Check out another podcast episode around family trusts), which specifically covers off what they are still good for.  https://www.lockhartlegal.co.nz/ (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 https://

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; and meet 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

Cat and Christine are the hosts of https://itsnosecret.co.nz/ ( '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

Is your home REALLY your castle?  If you hold wealth via property - it's only 'real' if your CONNECTION to that title can be trusted. In the new world we're heading into, increasingly there may be higher standards that use better technology in the area of storing title information. If you think of LINZ (Land Information NZ) as a reference point - if this database ever becomes powered by blockchain-based technology, then the future is much closer than many of us think. Today however, we're talking primarily about Fee Simple title Cross-lease title Leasehold title, and Unit title Enjoy! If you're keen to reach out and work with Mason Lockhart, https://www.lockhartlegal.co.nz/ (you can find the details here) As mentioned in the show - there are some significant changes coming in the banking area shortly - undoubtedly this will affect many prospective, and existing homeowners. It may also affect the NZ economy. https://youtu.be/AHzA-z8G4XA (Check out this video for more ) ________________________________________

Check out https://youtu.be/cOjI3jDpNxo ('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 shar

Managed funds vs Shares? It's kind of like an extension of diversification vs concentration in a way. Kristen Lunmen, GM and co-founder at Hatch joins me along with Rupert Carlyon for a light hearted debate over the pro's and con's of each. Check in with Facebook at 4pm this Friday the 10th of September for the livestream here: https://www.facebook.com/TheNZEverydayInvestor/ BUT...don't worry if you miss it, as this will be released on the main podcast this coming Monday. 

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, e

Depending on how you're wired, you're going to gravitate easily to one end of the diversification-concentration spectrum. In a well constructed portfolio, it is possible for you to assemble the best components from each of these philosophies - today I'm going to discuss some of these ways.If you like to take more of a deep dive into diversification, check out this episode: [https://nzeverydayinvestor.simplecast.com/episodes/allocating-assets-growing-the-pie-rupert-carlyon]If you're interested more in concentration, check out the link in the notes for episode 115 with Cole Hauptfuhrer: https://nzeverydayinvestor.simplecast.com/episodes/the-intelligent-lazy-investor-cole-hauptfuhrerThe NZ Everyday Investor is brought to you in partnership with Hatch.
