| Planning your journey to retirement
|
Thinking about retirement? This guide from financial adviser Daryl Buckingham offers a taste of how RIVAL Wealth can support you, with practical tips, key questions to consider, and a path to help you take control of your financial future. It’s a great first step toward making confident decisions. |

| The sandwich generation: Caught in the middle
|
Feeling caught in the middle? If you're supporting both ageing parents and growing children, you're part of the sandwich generation, and you're not alone. This guide offers practical tips, emotional support, and financial insights to help you navigate the pressures and find balance. It’s a starting point for real conversations and smart planning. |
Are your bank deposits working for you? Frustrated with their returns?
Is your health insurance still giving you the value you expect?
Is your KiwiSaver on autopilot, or is it aligned with your goals?
Are you paying fees you don’t fully understand?
These are the kinds of questions we help you answer - clearly, and always with your interests at heart. Our advice is always tailored, practical, and easy to understand. No jargon. No pressure. Just a proactive team helping you make smart decisions for a secure and fulfilling retirement.

Testimonials
| I really do appreciate all that you do for us more than I can properly say. It’s such a relief to have things taken care of. Dionne It's really cool having once been 'on the team' to now feeling supported as a client by the team at RIVAL Wealth. Future me thanks you sincerely. I know there are still so many Kiwis out there who do not have this type of proactive advice and that there are providers who would not recommend changes. I am very glad to have you guys looking out for me. Regan I just had a call from my life insurance company. They wanted to check in and see how I was doing, remind me of some benefits I haven't claimed yet, and also that I don't really need my insurance anymore. My faith in humanity has been restored a little. The insurance people have been nothing but helpful and caring since Helen died, the opposite of what I expected. Thank you RIVAL Wealth. Chelfyn RIVAL Wealth has the most approachable and common-sense personal financial advice we have seen for our clients. They do not product push; they listen and advise from a market-leading process.
