For a change Luke's in the hot seat as Amy from Levridge turns the tables and works through his own financial plan and money beliefs. They cover his childhood money beliefs of scarcity and "ask your father," his surprisingly casual approach to retirement planning at 38, and the realisation that he might be more frugal than he needs to be after building a business that's given him the ability to say no.

This is Luke stripped of his usual expert role, doing the same deep work he asks his listeners to do, and bringing you along for the journey.

In todays episode Luke sits down with Mikey from Guardian Smith to break down everything first home buyers need to know about getting a mortgage in 2026... From 5% deposit options most people don't know exist, to why the bank's test rate is still sitting close to 7% even when your actual rate is much lower.

W cover the mistakes that kill mortgage applications , why having a flatmate could dramatically increase your borrowing power, and how offset mortgages could save you hundreds of thousands in interest.

4 in 10 New Zealanders say they couldn’t access $5,000 within a week without going into debt if an unexpected emergency came up. $5,000 sounds like a lot of money and will be to many people who read this. Whilst others will feel that $5,000 is stuff all. Remember that finance is personal. But does it really go that far anymore? Well we better at least make sure we've got $5k sorted!
