Today, I’m grateful to be speaking with Ian Woolford, the head of money and cash at the Reserve Bank of NZ.Central Bank Digital Currency, branded as 'digital cash' by the RBNZ, has the potential to give the banking scene the boot up the backside we desperately need. One step further, trillions of dollars of assets migrating into the digital ecosystem (which is what CBDC's help facilitate) will usher in the most significant changes to wealth we've EVER seen. Concerns exist, absolutely, especially over the long term. A responsible and trustworthy RBNZ is the at the base-layer of our financial system. CBDC's have the potential to dramatically increase the power they hold. Our trust in them must therefore increase over time.Read more______________________Online courses:The Home Buyers Blueprint: Get a better home; Get a better mortgage.The KiwiSaver Millionaire Roadmap: From 6 figures to 7; Get a Rockstar Retirement!New Wealth Foundations: Personal finance from a wealth-builder's perspective.Take the free, 5-par

Those with too much, or too little testosterone may wish to quibble about the exact lengths of a property cycle, but the relevant thing is that the property cycle is slower than other asset classes. This affords the everyday investor an opportunity to jump on board at more optimal times than others. Should you factor this into your decisions when buying or selling property?Read more.Today I’m talking with Kieran Trass who is the author, and perfecter, of what could arguably be called the property owners bible. His book, 'Grow Richer with the Property Cycle,' concentrates his expertise into a guide that every first home buyer, investor, or upgrader should reference regularly.

On the other hand, too much action without a chance of ever ‘arriving’ is equally dangerous.

Those hanging on for dear life are desperate for good news and recency bias is at work here - many believe lower interest rates signal a return to the boom times. However high on hopium property hodlers are, reality is a bit more nuanced.

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.

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 governments 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.

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.
