In Episode #14, we discuss whether property investors are "greedy psychopaths". Ed recently had an article published in Stuff, New Zealand's largest news website. One commenter wrote, "property investment (speculation really) is a cancer on society by greedy psychopaths." We touch on that without property investors, many New Zealanders wouldn't have a place to live, since investors provide accommodation to renters. Far from being greedy, we discuss how many property investors are using investment property to save for their retirement. This means that they don't have to rely on New Zealand superannuation alone. To find out more about the podcast and property investment in general, check out our Epic Guide to Property Investment in NZ.
