From whence cometh the wherewithal to save, never mind the incentive?
It would be a good start to start spending within one's means. A recent economist summarised to me that the average NZ consumer is spending $1.14 for every $1.00 earned. Though this is likely to improve in the near future to only $1.08 for every $1.00.
While incentivised schemes like Kiwisaver are a start, we need a more fundamental shift in our spending, earning & borrowing profiles.
