Investment resources for a better investment future 

by | Oct 3, 2022 | Investments

This week – the 3rd to 9th of October – is World Investor Week and the theme is “Good investing is long-term investing” – which is certainly something we live by at enable.me. If you’ve been to one of our webinars or talked to one of our coaches and the question of ‘when is the best time to invest?’ has come up, no doubt you will have heard us say something along the lines of ‘it’s not about timing the market, but time in the market.” 

And this is true whether you’re investing in shares or in property.  

To help you better understand your options when it comes to investing, and why good investing is long-term investing, we’ve rounded up our most popular content on how you can approach investing as a long-term strategy for growing wealth and ensuring a secure financial future.

But here’s the rub, we’re not selling out our entire portfolio today, we’re not selling out tomorrow and, in fact, we’re not selling out for the rest of our lives if we can help it.

Why women need to be more proactive about investing 

When it comes to finances, women are often stuck on the back foot. Some would even go so far as to say the system’s rigged against us.   

When you take into consideration the gender pay gap, the recently revealed KiwiSaver gender gap, and the fact that women live longer… it’s no wonder we prefer a glass of pinot over putting a punt into the stock market. 

Here’s what we’re up against.
