Shared Lunch

International rings operating scams are on the increase in Aotearoa and Australia, and many of us will come across scammers in our daily lives. In this short video we explore the motivation and tactics of scammers, the different phases of a scam (and how you can be sucked in) plus the red flags many of us miss. Key takeaways include recognizing urgency, secrecy, and mismatched information requests as signs of scams, and knowing what steps to take if you or someone you know has been scammed. Investing involves risk. Be mindful of scams asking for your login info or offering unsolicited investment advice, especially on social media.

Is crypto going mainstream? Dave Ripley is co-CEO of long-standing global crypto exchange Kraken, service provider to Sharesies Crypto. In this episode, crypto “dinosaur” Dave tells us how he’s seeing signs that the financial establishment is ready to embrace digital assets.  Dave explains why crypto is a hot topic for lawmakers in Washington, while Texas, Wyoming, and nations like El Salvador are buying Bitcoin, and the US Department of Commerce is adopting blockchain. Why does Dave believe that AI is, by nature, the "exact opposite" of crypto? How does tokenisation work, and why does he say it could change property investing? Hear about Kraken’s “paranoid” dedication to security—and how Dave sees banks, brokers, and fintechs around the world rushing to offer crypto.

Octopus Energy has over 11 million customers worldwide and a reputation as an innovator—but Octopus NZ COO Margaret Cooney says that in Aotearoa, market settings are holding them back. In the face of security of supply issues and rising costs, Margaret believes our energy sector has been “complacent” for too long. So are there smarter ways to optimise power delivery? Should we be importing innovations like 'zero-bill homes'? What will it take for the country to get ahead of the demand curve? And if we have more than 50 electricity providers, why does Margaret say choice is dwindling for Kiwi households? Plus, Margaret explains how technology can help consumers schedule their demand to reduce power bills and support the adoption of renewables.  For more or to watch on YouTube—check out http://linktr.ee/sharedlunchShared Lunch is brought to you by Sharesies Australia Limited (ABN 94 648 811 830; AFSL 529893) in Australia and Sharesies Limited (NZ) in New Zealand.
