Can The Average NZer Become a Millionaire? [2026]
The average Kiwi will earn $3.1 million in their lifetime.
But most of us feel like we're going backwards.
So can the average Kiwi actually become a millionaire? In this video, Ed breaks down the surprising truth about wealth in New Zealand:
● Why 24% of Kiwi households are already worth $1 million or more
● Why New Zealand ranks 6th in the world for average wealth — ahead of Switzerland and the USA
● The three things that separate Kiwi millionaires from everyone else
● How much you need to save per week at different ages to hit $1 million by 65
● And why every 10 years you wait roughly doubles the cost of becoming a millionaire
The millionaires are among us. They drive Toyotas, shop at Pak'nSave, and live in three-bedroom houses on quiet streets. This video shows you what it actually takes to become one of them.
