Otherwise, people, they're not going to do it.

There's so much competition for the dollar.

So you almost need to have it sucked out of your account before you have the temptation to do what marketing is going to put in front of you until your next pay round.

But there are so many more use cases because you think, okay, well, cool, bro, you're fucking rounding up your 50 cents from your coffee into your KiwiSaver like, oh my gosh, mate, good, like, whoa, okay, hang on, hang on.

Think of the use cases for this.

That's a shock.

Keep The Change
MM 312 - I Invested $50k Into This Kiwi Start Up

Yeah, so even still, your 25% gain on that $1,043, especially compounded over many years, that's pretty good.
