In this episode of Money Made Simple, Jennie and Liv take on the top five money myths that keep holding Kiwis back from building financial confidence - and wealth! From saving when money is tight to whether credit cards are always “bad,” they tackle some of the most common misconceptions with real-life examples and practical advice you can actually use.
This episode covers:
- Why “I don’t earn enough to save” is almost never true
- The truth about credit cards: when they can be helpful, and when they become dangerous
- Why buying a house isn’t always better than renting, and how to think about what’s right for you
- Busting the belief that you need to be rich to invest (spoiler: you don’t!)
- How budgeting doesn’t kill your fun; it can actually make spending more enjoyable!
By the end of this episode, you’ll see that a lot of the financial “rules” we grew up hearing don’t stack up. We aim to provide you with a clearer view of how to make your money work better for you, no matter where you’re starting from.
