Investing for Kiwis: Platforms, Index Funds & KiwiSavers w/ Ruth the Happy Saver | RFS 2026 Week 8
21 July @ 8:00 pm BST
Join Alan and Katie Donegan of Rebel Finance School with special guest Ruth Henderson of The Happy Saver for a New Zealand-focused session. Week 8’s theory covered the three key investing decisions — platform, account, and fund. This session helps Kiwis apply that framework to their own system: KiwiSaver, PIE funds, NZ-based platforms, and the specific tax and account structures that make investing different from the UK.
Ruth runs The Happy Saver blog and podcast, where she breaks down investing and financial independence for a New Zealand audience. She brings practical, NZ-specific knowledge to the Rebel Finance School framework.
