He highlights New Zealand’s supportive entrepreneurship ecosystem, referencing organisations such as FKA’s free Thursday clinics and Icehouse Ventures as vital resources for founders.Key themes include the role of financial literacy and mindset in wealth creation, the psychological barriers people face around money (such as “tall poppy syndrome” in Australia and New Zealand), and redefining personal success beyond purely financial goals.
