All in FEATURE
I have been reading and learning about all things financial since I was a teenager. I then spent several years completing a double degree, post graduate studies in financial planning, and other varied financial qualifications. Along the way, I’ve easily read over 100 books and thousands of articles and pieces of research. This is my best advice…
Most people prefer to keep their head in the sand… sadly until it’s too late
Too many people will sell themselves short when it comes to having the financial future they want because they simply don’t know what to do nor who to trust for help. As a consequence, they never get around to doing what needs to be done. Often, the hardest part is acknowledging where they really are on their financial journey.
Do you ever feel like you should be further ahead when it comes to your finances?
You may never have realised it, but as you’ve gone through life you’ve been predicting the future along the way… and in many cases you’ve probably been quite good at it.
It’s the time of year when you’ll often see or hear parts of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and the story of his ghosts of Christmas past, present and future
Everyone knows about new year’s resolutions, you know… the resolutions everyone makes and hardly anyone keeps… studies put the number of those who keep their resolutions at around 8%!
There are lots of words associated with investing… diversification, time, growth, income, risk, etc. However, there’s one word that is the standout when it comes to getting results - FEES.
As we get late into the year, we know Santa’s been busy in his workshop for months preparing for Christmas Eve. To do his job well he needs to be super organised! Perhaps we should all be a bit more like Santa when it comes to Christmas.
It’s about now that we start to think, “where did the year go?”. Melbourne Cup is out of the way and shortly we’ll all be entering the countdown to Christmas. (Is it just me, or did the decorations start going up very, very early this year?)
In my years of experience of helping people with money, there is one big question that stands out as the one that people really want the answer to:
We all grew up hearing the old saying, “Money doesn’t grow on trees”. What if I were to tell you that’s not true?
Imagine if making a whole lot more money was something you could do in your sleep! Would you be interested?
There’s a good chance you have either read or know someone who has read The Barefoot Investor… it’s been the number one selling book in the country for the last couple of years. And it’s great!
On 20 August 2019, the Federal Treasurer, Josh Frydenberg, announced music to my ears!
I’m on a mission to help everyday Australians take control of their financial futures and get on the path to the financial freedom they deserve.
