Today Im sitting down with Albert, a full-time teacher with a side hustle teaching private music lessons. His problem is he's maxed out on time and can't take on more students so this consulting session is with the goal of helping him figure out how to package his expertise, charge what he's actually worth, and build leverage so he can help more people without working more hours.
If you've got a side hustle that's hit the ceiling, this live consulting session will change how you think about scaling it.

A few weeks ago I asked a simple question and the answers were bloody thoughtful and honest. Have a think about how you would answer that. And maybe it’s based on what you wish you knew now? Here is a summary of what came through in the comments. AND one suprising one that was missed!

Today Amy from Levridge breaks down some real client examples of New Zealander's building wealth.
The pattern is clear: small tweaks in the right direction and knowing why you're doing it create massive differences over time.
Everyone's at a different starting line, running a different race. But the ones getting ahead all have one thing in common: they got good advice and took action.
We cover relationship property agreements, why your home isn't actually an investment, the importance of accountability, and how restructuring debt can save thousands in tax. Plus, why sometimes the best financial advice is to do nothing at all.

I’ve heard this more times than I should.I am sure you would have heard it before. You may even believe it. It is perhaps the most dangerous money belief you can have. So let’s explore how we could look at this from some different angles and perhaps encourage others to do the same.

Over 90% of Kiwi workers now use AI, but most companies haven't provided official tools yet. Mikey and I break down what's really happening and what's coming next.
We cover the productivity gap where employees are much faster than their bosses realise, using AI for everything from drafting reports to summarising legal briefs in seconds. We explore why GDP hasn't grown despite this AI boom, the jobs that will disappear versus those that will thrive, and whether Universal Basic Income is the answer or just creates more problems.
The arbitrage opportunity exists now, but once everyone has access to AI, no one has an advantage. The window is closing.
Luke and Mikey discuss the investment bubble around AI (everything gets "AI" added to the name and stock prices explode), why some businesses will get crushed while others use AI to become more efficient, and the importance of focusing on what you can control rather than getting distracted by shiny objects.
The world is changing fast. The question is: are you adapting or getting left behind?

Every now and then, I see the same scary stat get thrown around. “70% of small businesses fail within the first five years.” I don’t know who started this, but it’s usually said with the same typical Kiwi certainty of those non-players who could coach the AB’s to a World Cup or slot one from the sideline. But because I am slightly unwell, I started trying to figure out where that statistic even came from and if I could find it. Turns out that stat is misleading at best and often flat-out wrong.

Budget 2026!!! I went to the live from the beehive. There were hundreds of pages of forecasts, funding announcements, assumptions and political chat. I’ll be honest I didn’t read every page. The challenge was trying to work out what actually matters to everyday Kiwis like you. So a few (not all) of those things…

Mark from Feijoa built an app that rounds up your spending and puts it straight into KiwiSaver. 3,000 users are now contributing hundreds if not thousands per year extra without thinking about it.
Mark breaks down how it works, we cover why they chose KiwiSaver first, the 1.6 million who don't regularly contribute, and how roundups solve the behaviour problem traditional saving can't.
We cover the regulatory hurdles, why they use open banking, and the expansion plans into managed funds and ETFs. Plus Mark's fundraising journey, from bootstrapping to raising $750K to scale the marketing and tell more people about automatic saving.

The question a grandparent asked me this week. They had been tucking money away weekly for their grandchildren and wanted to know if they were missing something by not investing the money. They currently save it into a bank account. Great intentions but times have changed a bit! Over long periods of time, investing can dramatically outperform cash sitting in a bank account. So how do we go about it?

New Zealand liquidations have hit a 15-year high, the highest since the GFC. Todays guest is lawyer Brent Norling who's receiving 160 calls a month from businesses drowning in tax debt, one of the main driving factors of these liquidations.
IRD debt has exploded from $2.5 billion to $9.5 billion, with the next update likely starting with a 10. The pattern is often the same: lose money on a job, do the next job to pay for the previous one, then use IRD and creditors to fund the shortfall until it all collapses.
We cover why employees get burnt when Kiwisaver deductions aren't paid, the construction domino effect when big companies fail, and why most directors never get prosecuted despite owing millions. Plus the harsh reality: if you're using IRD as your bank, you're competing unfairly until you get caught.
The liquidation wave is here. Don't be next.

That subject line sounds so sexy. But one of my first jobs out of uni was not so sexy. Being an auditor. Don’t you dare judge me. This meant that in my early 20s, I worked inside councils, universities, government organisations, and powerline companies reviewing payroll systems and employee records. I think this experience mattered more than I realised at the time. Because once you’ve seen the data, it becomes harder to believe the story that earning well is impossible.

There is no hard and fast ‘business or hobby?’ number, so let’s explore how it works. To start with, let’s keep it simple. A hobby = done for fun. Probably one off or done rarely. A business = done to make money. Consistently. However, it’s not what you call it. It’s how it looks.

Michelle Morfett has a cake shop, a self published cookbook, an ecommerce site, a thriving social media presence and manufactures her own baking tins.
Today she breaks down how she built multiple income streams, we cover why she turned down publishers, and why diversifying income streams gives her confidence.
We cover the loneliness of entrepreneurship, why she lost all shame about posting content, and how social media became essential after initially building a business without it.
Sometimes the best business strategy is just backing yourself to figure it out.

Today, I want to tell you about a new Kiwi fintech called Feijoa. But first, full transparency: after being a customer, I ended up investing in their recent funding round and am now a VERY, VERY small shareholder. So yes, you could 100% argue I’m biased. It is my first 'Fintech' investment, and I am looking forward to taking you on that journey of how that space works, where appropriate also. With that said, I’m going to give you the straight view as always, and why I kicked some of my hard-earned money in.
