Lol actuaries getting excited about numbers again. Just put in 3% and hope for the best, that's my strategy 🇳🇿

Noah Bennett2026-06-23T02:52:06.000Z

6% plus 6%? Yeah right, as if I can afford that on min wage. Get real.

Noah Bennett2026-06-23T03:35:06.000Z

Preach. My employer matches 3%, that's all I can do. Can't magic money outta thin air.

Riley Scott2026-06-23T03:18:06.000Z

Just another excuse for the government to push super age out further. Nah mate.

Peyton Hall2026-06-23T03:39:06.000Z

I've been on 8% for years. Feels good knowing i'll be sweet. But each to their own!

Casey Adams2026-06-23T04:01:06.000Z

doesn't care about your projections. Ask anyone on NZ Super now.

Actuaries have been doom-mongering about NZ Super since the 90s. Still here, still paying out. F off with the scare tactics.

Jordan Bell2026-06-23T04:40:06.000Z

they've been saying it's doomed for decades. It's a pension scheme not a casino.

Casey Adams2026-06-23T04:19:06.000Z

So if I put in 6% I'll have MORE money retired than working? Yeah nah that's a crock. Inflation will eat it all.

Reese Morgan2026-06-23T05:01:06.000Z

cope. Put your money in term deposits if you're so smart.

Finn Walker2026-06-23T04:45:06.000Z

Wish someone told me this 20 years ago 😅 But better late than never I guess

Peyton Hall2026-06-23T05:27:06.000Z

even 3% is something. Better than nothing.

Sam North2026-06-23T05:07:06.000Z

Every year it's 'experts split' on the right amount. Meanwhile the fees keep taking a cut. Rip off.

Jordan Bell2026-06-23T05:26:06.000Z

than having none though. Can always top up with other investments.
