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.

The Doing & Making Strategy, Ep 424 / Brian Henry
For some, consistent investing through a retirement fund or buying shares directly is easy. For many more, there’s a bit of work involved in mustering up the motivation to start. As someone who hasn’t likely taken a straight path there, I’m fairly confident that anyone can invest, and most investment tools will get the job done. What separates those who play with tools from those who actually build, is looking at the plans. It’s the strategy that makes everyday investors succeed. Read more.
