It's No Secret

101. Why You Can't Save Your Way to Retirement

Catherine Emerson & Christine Jensen Season 4 Episode 101

Are Kiwis missing out by being savers rather than investors? In this episode, we explore whether our national tendency toward saving is helping or hurting our financial futures. 

With rising living costs and ambitious retirement goals, we'll see if saving alone is enough to get us there.

Key Questions Discussed:

  • Can you reach retirement goals through saving alone?
  • What's the real difference between saving and investing?
  • What role should cash play in your investing strategy?
  • When should you save vs invest?
  • How can you start investing confidently?
  • What's the right balance between saving and investing?
