Darcy Ungaro / Hidden Risks of Retirement Income Ep 506

Passive retirement income sounds like the holy grail, right? Imagine the money quietly rolling in while your capital sits there untouched – perfect! Yet when you dig into how this is usually sold to retirees and pre‑retirees, it often turns into something very different: concentrated bets, misunderstood risk, and portfolio structures that look “safe” on the surface but are fragile underneath.

Reuben Steff / 3 Global Hotspots to Watch in 2026, Ep 502

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN 2025! In 2026, three geopolitical hotspots matter most for Kiwis watching the world: Venezuela and US renewed /Monroe Doctrine in the Americas, Russia’s grinding war in Ukraine, and China’s expanding reach across the Pacific. Reuben Steff, geopolitical analyst and regular guest on the show, joins me to unpack what these flashpoints really mean. As great‑power rivalry hardens, New Zealand’s long‑running strategy of sitting in the middle may be running out of road. Is this the decade where we finally have to choose a side between US and China, or is there still room to quietly hedge? Book in a free 15-min phone call with Darcy Ungaro (financial adviser).

Jack Gamble / CCP, Bank Failures, & Strawmen Ep 501

Today's a unique episode and for those who love a good story, this one's for you. The failure of First National Bank of Lindsay as more than a small, local bank collapse and instead as a window into a broader pattern of organised crime, regulatory failure, and moral decay centred on the I‑35 drug and human‑trafficking corridor and illegal Chinese‑linked marijuana operations in Oklahoma.

Each and every episode is packed with interesting information delivered in such an informative and easily digestible way. Darcy has a breadth of information and with a great mix of guests is able to get depth also. I won’t miss an episode and don’t think you should either.
Off Topic

MarkCr

Ep 471 strayed way off topic. Talking about the Middle East not relevant to the NZ property market.
Refreshingly Candid

Darcy has a knack for talking about personal finance in a refreshing way that isn’t just recycling the same tired talking points. He’s comfortable “looking behind the curtain” and challenging ideas that might not hold true in a new market. Would recommend 100%.
