The Barefoot Investor – How You Can Apply It In NZ | Ep. 129

In this episode, we discuss The Barefoot Investor book. It claims to be the "only money guide you'll ever need", but does it measure up to the claim? 

We review the three key takeaways from the show:

• How to set up your bank accounts to make it easy to manage your money ... without a budget or excel spreadsheets
• The author's opinion on the Australian property market, as well as the differences with the New Zealand property market
• The author's retirement strategy and our thinking of whether this could reasonably be applied within New Zealand.

While we don't think it's the only money guide you'll ever need, we do recommend reading it if you have the chance. Although it's very geared towards Australia's rules, regulations, superannuation schemes and market conditions, there are some valuable tips and strategies that Kiwis can learn from and implement.

We also recommend taking a look at our Epic Guide to Mortgages. While we wouldn't claim it's the only mortgage guide you'll ever need, it comes pretty close 😀
