Thank you guys — sooo excited for your innovative solution! I’m positive that at the heart of all great kiwi innovation is a desire to provide better alternatives for PEOPLE as a collective (which really stands in contrast to neo-liberal dreams of bigger, greatest, best). As someone who works with Māori whānau and communities, helping them help themselves, financial literacy and development is constantly the biggest issue and barrier to holistic wellbeing — mainly the lack of knowledge and the simulataneous feelings of inadequacy it creates. On top of that, it’s so overwhelming and intimidating to them that the instant gratification, like the beer or shopping, simple becomes the only possible reality…. and instantly increases those feelings of self-worth. Its a conundrum and one I faile at helping overcome because I’m in a similar waka!(eye-roll!). With that being said, I will be following you guys closely — investing shortly lol — and hopefully getting more of our people connected into what you are doing here. Great work! #LoveCleverKiwisWithHeart
