(Interview recorded on 25 August 2026)

 

Paul Brennan, host of Money Talks, is joined by Simon Angelo, editor of Wealth Morning. Here’s what they are discussing this week:

  • Is the great Kiwi property boom finally over? After years of easy gains, the housing market has hit a wall. Falling prices and weaker yields are now putting the squeeze on property. Increasingly, investors are switching to shares in search of a better path to long-term wealth.
  • Are we training young people for jobs that are vanishing? Graduate vacancies in white-collar work are plunging, even while demand for skilled blue-collar trades is soaring. As AI continues to make inroads, the career opportunities of the future may increasingly lie in practical skills and technical training.
  • Could tactical MMP voting decide New Zealand’s economic future? Proposed taxes on wealth and land will have far-reaching consequences for all of us. Here’s how strategic electorate and party voting can alter the balance of power in our next Parliament.
