Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Are the big Aussie banks treating us like mugs?
Q: What is the legal duty of parents to support their children in New Zealand, and how long does it last?
There is no lifelong legal obligation; parents are legally liable to support until 16, potentially extending to 18 or 20 under certain circumstances, with moral claims possibly appearing on estates after death depending on the situation.
Are the big Aussie banks treating us like mugs?
Q: Why are Australian banks in New Zealand perceived to be treating Kiwis unfairly with loan products like redraw and offset facilities?
Experts explain that while these features exist to help borrowers manage debt, differences in product design across borders and how they are marketed can create perception gaps, especially around fees and how offsets interact with interest.
My stepparent sold the family home. I got nothing! What can I do?
Q: How can banks justify paying only 0.10% interest on an account that is designed for saving?
It's almost not worth having this as an alternative to a standard transaction account, and many customers don't notice how little they're earning from savings accounts.
My stepparent sold the family home. I got nothing! What can I do?
Q: What can our listener do in a situation like this?
Start by getting a copy of the father's will; it's essential to understand how the home was owned when he died.
My kids inherit my money when I die. Isn't that too late?
Q: How can parents assist their children financially during their need without compromising their own financial security?
Parents can help their children learn to manage money and consider providing financial assistance only after ensuring their own needs are met.
