Why Kiwis Stay “Average” + 5 Biggest Money Mistakes, Being Cringy, Tax that helps? | E25 LUKE KEMEYS

Luke Kemeys is a New Zealand Fellow Chartered Accountant and award-winning business advisor known for his straight-talking, practical approach to money and business. He runs nextAdvisory, where he works with business owners to turn financial complexity into clear strategies and better decisions. Luke is also the creator and host of Keep The Change Podcast a financial literacy platform aimed at helping tens of thousands of Kiwis improve their money habits—with a stated goal of helping 100,000 New Zealanders lift their financial literacy. In this episode, we unpack the biggest financial literacy gaps Luke sees in Kiwis. Why self-promotion is seen as “cringe” (Tall Poppy Syndrome), and how consumer debt traps like BNPL and credit cards quietly limit freedom. Luke also shares a bold idea: using tax incentives to encourage better behaviour—like investing in your health, education, and other things. If you want to increase your value, build leverage, and stop living on autopilot, this one’s for you.
