And on another note, some 13 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 1: are breakfast radio host on KISSFM Brian John. To ask 14 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: Glenn and I the hardest hitting once. 15 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 2: So like embarrassing me. 16 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: I do. It's actually my favorite thing in this entire world. 17 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: But it seems quite reciprocal. Okay, before we get there though, 18 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: In true She's on the Money style, we are going 19 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: to be talking through our money wins in confessions from 20 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: this week, and Glenn, because you are our guest, you 21 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,479 Speaker 1: get to go first. What have you got for us? 22 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 2: Well, when you said to come on the podcast and 23 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: have a money win, I'm like, oh, geez, I don't 24 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 2: know if I've got one this week. 25 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: Everybody has that. 26 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 2: No, it was last Friday night, I kid you not. 27 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: I was going to a mate's house for a barbecue. 28 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 2: Went to Cohl's. They had a pack of pre marinated meat, 29 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 2: you know, wings and drums and all that stuff, and 30 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 2: it had like discounted to sell because obviously it was 31 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 2: going out a date. 32 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: Yeah ten minutes, but you were going to be using 33 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: it that night, right exactly. 34 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 2: So it was thirteen dollars down to eleven dollars. Went 35 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 2: up to the counter and they scanned it and they said, 36 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: we can't sell it to you because it's best before today. 37 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: And I said, mate, it's going on the barbecue in 38 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 2: about ten minutes. I'm happy to still buy it. And 39 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: they got one guy. They couldn't work it out. The 40 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: next person came and I said, hey, I'll just take 41 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 2: it if you want, and they said, yeah, no's taken. 42 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. This is like, it's so bizarre because 43 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: most of us who have a job and have an 44 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 2: income dollars. It's not changing our world too. 45 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: Much, no, but it's exciting. I was. 46 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: I was so excited. I was bouncing out to my car, 47 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 2: and I'm like, I've got a money win this podcast. 48 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 3: I need to ask, though, It's only really a money 49 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: win if you ate it and didn't get sick, because 50 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 3: if it was in fact too old, then it's probably 51 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 3: not a win. 52 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 2: So how was it? What can I say? I was 53 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: in hospital for three days. I've still got my eleven 54 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: dollars health care. 55 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: It just really a spree, Ryan, Do you have a 56 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: money win or confession that might impress us just as much? 57 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 3: Certainly won't impress you. I've actually bought a confession. 58 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: Oh okay, no, I like those just as much if 59 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: I'm being honest. 60 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 2: Yeah. 61 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 3: So I've just moved into a house in Richmond down. 62 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: The road your fancy, Yes, thank you. 63 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 3: And I haven't moved all the utensils. I've got stuff 64 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 3: for the kitchen and stuff yet. So one of the 65 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 3: risks of moving to the city was me being scared 66 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: about spending too much on uber eats. 67 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: It is a real risk, yeah, because. 68 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 3: I live out in the country, so there's no obreeds 69 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 3: out there, and I promised Bridget I wouldn't spend much 70 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 3: on a new bread eat. But because I had no 71 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: plates and cutlery of my own. I had it on 72 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 3: Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday. 73 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: Okay, so that's probably a little bit irresponsible. 74 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: Do we feel a bit guilty ordering from uber Eats 75 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: because I do, knowing that the retail, like the retail 76 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 2: is getting probably slammed with their sliced Uber eats. 77 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: I do, and I have recently been using a company 78 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: called door Dash because I feel better because a higher 79 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: percentage of their commission or whatever it is, goes to 80 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: the actual hospitality company providing the food. So I don't know. Yeah, 81 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: I think that's a legitimate concern. I do feel a 82 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: little bit guilty when that happens. Also a little bit 83 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: lazy when I'm ordering something from the place down the 84 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: road that is like three hundred meters away. So maybe 85 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: we should all use uber eats a little less and 86 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: not worry about not eating takeaway. 87 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 2: I drove around to my local pizza shop the other 88 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: night and I couldn't get a car park out the front, 89 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: and I almost parked back at my house. I just 90 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: want to. 91 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: Add that it's also a bit rich from Victoria de 92 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 3: Vine to say we shouldn't get uberats as much because 93 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 3: we've hung out all day today, v and this is 94 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: the first time we've hung out not had Uber eats 95 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 3: and probably the last six or seven times we've hung 96 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: out again. 97 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: Yah. I'm also just going to call it out. You 98 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: could have had an epic money win that every time 99 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: we order uberts it's usually me ordering it, and I 100 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: ordered you pizza on the weekend and we did too. 101 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: That was a pretty good money week over on the weekend, 102 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: and you're welcome. I also made some really really good 103 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: margaritas guys, recipes on my Instagram for those of you 104 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: who are interested, but moving on, I will let you 105 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: know what my money win or confession is this week. 106 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: I actually have a money win for you, guys. I've 107 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: bought a coffee machine, which is incredibly exciting. As you know, 108 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,359 Speaker 1: I love a good coffee and usually go to the 109 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 1: cafe literally every single day, and I finally have my 110 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: own coffee machine and it is delightful. It has those 111 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: Lavasa pods, so it. 112 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 3: Literally, yeah, what sort did you get? 113 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: I got this Meg coffee machine with the pods and 114 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: it's like the Lavaza pods and they are premium. I 115 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: will let you know. They also make an epic espresso martini. 116 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 2: It's a paid ad. 117 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: No, it's not like I wish they were paying me. 118 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: But I would say ten out of ten would get 119 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: again because it's so easy. And I felt like I 120 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: was really worried about getting a coffee machine because the 121 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: cleanup would be something I didn't want to deal with. 122 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: But I'm probably going to get slammed for the fact 123 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: I use pods, but. 124 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say that, is that what they're calling it? Coffee? 125 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 2: Is it? 126 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, like Len's a bit of a coffee commer sewer. 127 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: So I of strategically put this on this episode because 128 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: I knew i'd get slammed by him, and I welcome that. 129 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm launching my Millennial coffee and I've just done 130 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 2: all the testing. It's my own blend, because categorically, you 131 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: can save so much money making it at home, whether 132 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: it's through a filter and drip and all that stuff, 133 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 2: or French press or even through the pods. Categorically, over 134 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 2: the long term, if you actually want to save money 135 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 2: and you do love your coffee, you just have a 136 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: bit of an outlay and it's a bit of a 137 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: cost recovery exercise. But yeah, I support anyone making coffee 138 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: at time. 139 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: I love that. But moving on, let's take a look 140 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: at our Facebook communities. Usually we only look at their 141 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: She's on the Money community, but this week we are 142 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: going to look at our community as well as your 143 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: Facebook group My Millennial Money Glenn, so i'd love you 144 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: to again start.

Have 188 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: you got something from our community. I really doubt it'll 189 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: be as self promotional as Glenn's was, but that's okay. 190 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 3: I actually feel a bit weird now because that was 191 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 3: so motivational and inspiring. 192 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 2: Mind is quite the opposite. It's from that. 193 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 3: She's on the money Instagram and her name is Chastely. 194 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: I believe awesome, she says, little win but exciting. Nonetheless, 195 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 3: I won the McDonald's monopoly voucher and it covered my 196 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 3: whole meal. 197 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: Nothing like some free food for a pick me up. 198 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:49,079 Speaker 1: Now. 199 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 3: The reason I love this is because I've actually never 200 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 3: heard of anyone ever actually winning them McDonald's monopoly. 201 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: I would have to agree. 202 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 2: I always hear you. 203 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 3: See the ads.

And if anybody in our community has actually 209 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: won anything more than that on a McDonald's Monopoly game. 210 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: Please post it in our community. I want to see it. 211 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 2: Who gets those jet skis? Yeah? 212 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: Who got the jet ski? 213 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 2: All right? 214 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: The what's your favorite one? 215 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: This week? 216 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: So my community shout out again. Not as good as Glen's. 217 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: I believe that my millennial money's community has won out here. 218 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: But mine's really wholesome. And it's from our friend Lauren, 219 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: and she's posted and she said, so, I wanted to 220 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: share a little story with you. I was talking to 221 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: my eighty three year old grandfather about starting a little 222 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: side hustle, and he mentioned maybe he should make an 223 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: Instagram for his art paintings and maybe he could sell them. 224 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: She said, I know, right, eighty three years old and 225 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: now up on Instagram. I was thrilled. I think he's 226 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: so talented, but he always doubts himself. So the confidence 227 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: I got from she's on the money transferred over to 228 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: my eighty three year old grandfather. Here's a sample of 229 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: his work, and she's posted one of his absolutely stunning paintings, 230 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: and she's said she's very happy if you guys would 231 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: follow his Instagram, which is pop Art nineteen thirty seven. 232 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: She said, have a wonderful day. And honestly, it's the 233 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: most wholesome thing I've seen in our community in a 234 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: really long time. So I know we say don't promote 235 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: yourselves in the Facebook group, I just felt like I'd 236 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: let that one through because it was too cute not 237 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: to share. 238 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: That's so cute, that's so cool. 239 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: All right. Now, moving into the main chat of today's show, 240 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: a question and answer with arguably your favorite finance people, 241 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: Glenn and I Ryan. You're going to run the show 242 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: from here on in what is our first question? 243 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 2: All right? 244 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 3: Question one is from Brianna. She said, how do you 245 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 3: balance the risk of investing and in brackets losing it 246 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 3: all or not investing and therefore not building wealth? So 247 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 3: how do you get that balance right of wanting to 248 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 3: invest a bill wealth but also not wanting to lose 249 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 3: it all as well? 250 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 2: Let's ask out with you, Glenn. There's some misconceptions in 251 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 2: that statement, and that's okay because we've just got to 252 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 2: learn people often say I'll lose it all if I invest. 253 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 2: Now we just have to firstly unpack and work out 254 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 2: what investing actually is and at its purest form, if 255 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 2: you believe company like Woolworth's is a business that has 256 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: a long track record that has growth potential in the 257 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 2: way that people will always need groceries, and we buy 258 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 2: a share in that business, Well, that's not that risky 259 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: for the long term. However, if you think, well, I'm 260 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: not going to invest money for growth and leave it 261 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: in cash, you know, the economists listening will probably say, well, 262 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 2: that's not a good thing either, because inflation will actually 263 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 2: erode the buying power of your money. So at two 264 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 2: ends of the spectrum here, we've got the risk of 265 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 2: doing nothing over the long term and also the risk 266 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 2: of potential downside at the extremities. Now, sure, if you 267 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,319 Speaker 2: purchased a new type of cryptocurrency that no one ever 268 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: heard of, yeah you're pretty much kissing your money away. 269 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 2: But if you bring it back to an everyday basket 270 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: of companies that are well run and they've got a 271 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 2: long track record, that's not as risky as a new cryptocurrency. 272 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 2: So it's just understanding the risk spectrum. And with investing 273 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 2: in Victoria, you'd probably agree that the short term in 274 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: the investing world is probably under five to seven years. 275 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 2: Longer term is over five to seven years. Whatever that 276 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 2: is in your situation. So you might go, oh, I 277 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: don't need the money for six years, Well there's a 278 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 2: risk that I leave it in cash and it gets 279 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 2: one point five percent in my savings account for the 280 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 2: next six years. Well, to me, that's a risk that 281 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 2: I don't want to take. So there's a risk of 282 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 2: opportunity cost of the money not being invested in a 283 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 2: diversified portfolio. So I think, if I don't need the 284 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 2: money within the next six years or seven years, I'm 285 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 2: going to invest that because the risk is too great 286 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 2: not to invest it. Do you think it's. 287 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 3: A lack of education or maybe just what makes headlines 288 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 3: is those big, juicy spectacular fails. But I was actually 289 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 3: saying to be earlier, there is this misconception of if 290 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 3: I put some money in investments, it could all be gone. 291 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: Is that Why is that that people think that way? 292 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, because there is just I honestly think we just 293 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 2: get told by our family members. You hear their horror stories, 294 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 2: like your uncle's friend had this horror story and he 295 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 2: lost it all in shares. No, No, he bought into 296 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 2: a company that had no track record and they were 297 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 2: crap at running it, and that transfers over to buying 298 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 2: shares is risky, So I think if you understand what 299 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 2: you're investing is, you can actually start to quantify some 300 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 2: of that risk. But I think the first thing anyone 301 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 2: listening who actually works a job and gets paid superannuation, 302 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 2: you're an investor because you've got a super account that 303 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 2: has money invested in the market. And I would call 304 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 2: your superfund. You know, on your lunch break one day, 305 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 2: you take twenty minutes call your super fun and get 306 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 2: them to explain to you how your money is invested 307 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 2: in their fund. Number one, you pay them a bloody 308 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: fee so they can work for it. But number two, 309 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 2: it's an easy way for you to start to understand 310 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 2: investing because you already have money that's invested. 311 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: That's a really good point. And furthering that, I think 312 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 1: it's really important to understand investing as a whole because 313 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: once you start to understand the concept of investment and 314 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: the fact that a good investment portfolio is really well diversified, 315 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: you end up with a lot of companies that look 316 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: like Woolworth's, Like what you were talking about before, Glenn, 317 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: that you know, if will Worths for some reason isn't 318 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: doing so well maybe Cohle's is, and maybe something else 319 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: is going really well. So it's all about managing risk 320 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: by not putting all of your eggs in one basket. 321 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: So for me, these kinds of questions, and this is 322 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: not to stereotype, but these kinds of questions often come 323 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: from people who haven't spent enough time yet understanding what 324 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: the share market is made up of. Because, as you 325 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: were saying before, you're right, uncle Glenn put money into 326 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: a stock and lost everything. And it's like, well, actually, 327 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: if uncle Glenn had put his money in a well 328 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: diversified share portfolio, you know, fifty years ago, he'd be 329 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: in a banging position today. And I think that that's 330 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: what people forget to, you know, forget to take into consideration. 331 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: And something else I hear a lot is, oh, my 332 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: parents were investors and they lost everything during the DFC. 333 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: You kind of go, okay, but have you actually taken 334 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: the time to ask them what they were invested in 335 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: and how they lost money? And more often than not, 336 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: when you start digging, you find they lost money because 337 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: they pulled all of their shares out when they tanked, 338 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: or they lost money because they were invested in something 339 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: that actually wasn't going to perform well over the long term, 340 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: or they were taking on more risk than they should 341 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: have for their risk profile. So I think if you, 342 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: as an individual, start to learn what a risk profile 343 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: actually means and know what that means for you individually, 344 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: As you were saying before, Glenn, how long are you 345 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: investing for? How tenacious are you? Are you willing to 346 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: take on that risk or are you in a position 347 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: where you just want really conservative investments, in which case 348 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: maybe you do. You just want to keep things in cash, like, 349 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong with that. It's all about understanding your opportunities. 350 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: Let's go to Nicole because it's sort of on the 351 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 2: same topic. 352 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 3: She said, Obviously, with COVID and everything happening this year, 353 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 3: the stock market has been all over the place, So 354 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 3: when would be the best time to buy shares, keeping 355 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 3: in mind how volatile it's been. Do we wait until 356 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 3: COVID's over? What do we get in now? Is there 357 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 3: even an answer to this question? 358 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 2: We get you to go first on this one. 359 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: I think that there's a very good quote about this, 360 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: and it is be greedy when other people are fearful, 361 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: and fearful when other people are greedy. And that was 362 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: by the og Warren Buffett. But I think it's really 363 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: important to understand that the market being off isn't a 364 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: negative thing for new investors. I'm not saying go and 365 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: buy dodgy stocks and hope they recover, but right now 366 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: there are potentially a number of really great assets that 367 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: are currently being undervalued. So if you're going to purchase shares, 368 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: now might be a really good time to get on 369 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: it while it is off. In saying that, there are 370 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: also a number of shares that are really performing well 371 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: through this period, Like if you look at the performance 372 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: of I wouldn't say these are conservative investment by any 373 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: stretch of the imagination, but over the last twelve months 374 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: how Tesla and after pay have performed. And then we 375 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:18,400 Speaker 1: look at like DocuSign and even Zoom, which we're using 376 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: at the moment, their share prices have gone through the roof. 377 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't say as a whole every single share 378 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: price is off, but I would say, yeah, you're right, 379 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: some parts of the share market are suffering, and the 380 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: reason that they are suffering is because we've just gone 381 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: through a global pandemic. But that doesn't mean that that 382 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: business is a bad business. It just means that their 383 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: share price has dipped because of the way the market 384 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: is performing. Glenn, what do you reckon about this? 385 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can only speak to what I do in 386 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 2: my own personal life, and that is I'm kind of 387 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 2: I invest in like a diversified pool of stocks, So 388 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 2: I use index funds, I used you managed funds and 389 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 2: all that stuff. My whole focus with investing is focusing 390 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 2: on spending less than what I earn and investing the rest, 391 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 2: and then by me and investing the rest. That is, 392 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 2: I've got a monthly amount set up that goes into 393 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 2: my portfolio every month. I've got a monthly amount setup 394 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: that goes into my souper every month. So I focus 395 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 2: my energy on how much money I can shovel into 396 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 2: good investments over the long term. Now, the best time 397 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 2: to buy shares with this coronavirus stuff was to go 398 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 2: back in time to the twenty second of March, which 399 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: is bottom of the correction. So the market has basically recovered. 400 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 2: And don't at me to say no, it hasn't, it's 401 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 2: not there, But I'm going to ask you, yeah, basically there, 402 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 2: basically it's back to where it was and that's been 403 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 2: a result of the economy starting to recover off the 404 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 2: back of the news that there will be a vaccine 405 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 2: probably in market globally by March. So to answer your question, 406 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 2: don't worry too much about the what ifs and if onlies. 407 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 2: Worry more about the future and how much you can 408 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 2: put in each month or each week or week, each 409 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 2: whatever your frequency is, because then at the end of 410 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 2: this year, I, with my twelve monthly installments, I would 411 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 2: have got the average by price anyway. 412 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and this is something I talk about a lot 413 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: on the podcast. So apologies to my friends listening that 414 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 1: think I sound like a broken record, but I would 415 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: be an incredibly rich woman if I could time the market. 416 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 1: It's just not possible. So for me, it's actually about 417 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: consistency and your ability to start investing. So if you 418 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: were able to start investing, great, If that happened in March, fantastic, 419 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: you got off on a really great foot starting today, 420 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: starting tomorrow, starting in six months. It doesn't matter when. 421 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: Just as long as you can personally afford to be investing, 422 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: it's built into your budget and your cash flow, and 423 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 1: it makes sense for you to be able to do 424 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: that consistently. I think it's more about what's going on 425 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: with you, not what's going on with the markets. So 426 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 1: I think people get so caught up in oh, is 427 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: it a good time to invest or not, Whereas if 428 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: you're investing regularly and consistently, it shouldn't actually be about 429 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: what's going on in the market, but rather what you 430 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: can personally commit to during that period of time only 431 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: becomes a massive issue. In my personal opinion. If you 432 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,160 Speaker 1: were planning on retiring in March. 433 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:24,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, well you just worked a little bit longer, now, 434 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 2: aren't you. 435 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it sucks to you. 436 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 3: By all right, We've got one sentence to answer these 437 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 3: questions each. 438 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 2: Okay, all right. 439 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 3: This question is from McKenna. She said, how many bank 440 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 3: accounts do you have? 441 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 2: I've got my blow account, which is one.

So same as Glenn. I actually follow my own 482 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: budget and cash flow plan, so I have six accounts. Personally, 483 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: I have my cash Hub account, which when I have 484 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: a mortgage one day, will be my offset and that's 485 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: where all my bills and fixed fox come out of. Then, 486 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: same as Glenn, biggest fan of up Bank, my weekly 487 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: spending account is my up Bank card and that's for 488 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: my food, my fuel, and my fun.

And then I 494 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 1: have three different savings accounts. Personally, I've got my medium 495 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: to long term savings account. I've got a short term 496 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: savings account for smaller goals. Got an emergency fund which 497 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: I'm not currently contributing to because it's just like sitting there. 498 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: And I do have about three months worth of expenses. 499 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: In that I don't have three months worth of like 500 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: income or savings or whatever. It is just literally three 501 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: months worth of my bills and fixed costs and food 502 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: money in case I ever need it. I then have 503 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: a cash account for my investment lan. I then have 504 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: my business account, and I have like a number of 505 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: different business accounts. I won't get too detailed into that, 506 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 1: just because for each entity that I own, I've got 507 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: a business account. Then I have a GST account, I 508 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: have a tax account, and then I have a general 509 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: work savings account, which is for stuff like team Christmas 510 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: parties and like things that I want to spend on, 511 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,919 Speaker 1: I e. New microphone stuff for the office that is me. 512 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: That was six plus like six personal and then probably 513 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: five different business account and then on top of that, 514 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: my friends, I have a joint account with my partner Boom. 515 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 2: That's cute. 516 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: Thank you, Ry. 517 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: Who would have guessed with the two of you guys? 518 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 3: Asking that question that could have been the whole episode 519 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 3: to Glenn and Victoria's better. 520 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: The most important thing that you can get right, though, Ryan, 521 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: is literally your cash flow and budget. If you can 522 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: get on top of that, you can create the life 523 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: that you deserve, Like if you can understand where your 524 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: money's coming in and where it's going, like it makes 525 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: a lot of sense. But then also, Ryan, you said 526 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: something really important to me this morning, which I don't 527 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: know if you remember this, but you said, any good 528 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 1: business person will be able to understand their income and 529 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: their expenses like on their phone if you ask them 530 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,199 Speaker 1: to produce them instantly. And I thought that that was 531 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: really interesting because I can definitely do that, and I 532 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: think I literally got it up and was like, oh, 533 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: they're just here. And I think that if you can't 534 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: do that with your own personal accounts, and you can't 535 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: do that with your cash flow and you don't immediately know, oh, well, actually, Glenn, 536 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: I spend two hundred and fifty dollars a week on 537 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: my blow account, Like I want to know that. You 538 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 1: need to know that if you're not in a position 539 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: where you're empowered to you know, reach that, and you're like, oh, 540 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: maybe I spend one hundred or maybe three hundred or 541 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: last week it was five hundred because I bought a 542 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: dress for a friend's thing. Like, to me, that's not 543 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: good enough. You're not on top of your money. 544 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:21,239 Speaker 3: Well enough, Kerry says, how old were you when you 545 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 3: first invested? 546 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 2: And what was it? Oh, let's start with you, Glenn. 547 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,719 Speaker 2: Can you remember? Yeah? I think I was eighteen and 548 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 2: it was a company out of Melbourne and it was 549 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 2: something to do with the poultry pig industry and they're 550 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 2: waiting on a grant because they're waiting on regulation thing 551 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 2: and it was going to be a banger, but I 552 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: think I lost my money And now I don't really 553 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 2: invest in single stocks. 554 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: Because you had a negative experience. 555 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 2: You're the person you're taking out before. 556 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, basically, yeah, Victoria Devine first investment hour We. 557 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: Okay, So my first investment would have been when I 558 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: was about twenty three. I'd wanted to invest for a 559 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: really long time, didn't understand. It got to a point 560 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: where I was like, I'm going to buy something. I 561 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 1: did my research and I bought a Vanguard atf with 562 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: one hundred dollars and that was my first investment that 563 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 1: I can remember unless I invested in something earlier. I 564 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: don't think I did. I think that was my first 565 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: like trade and having to sign up to something. 566 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 2: Tips. 567 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 3: This is from Shelley Tips for a rental application. How 568 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 3: do I make myself look great on paper? And is 569 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,719 Speaker 3: there any hidden costs or fees associated with renting? 570 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 2: Yes? So for me how to look good on paper? 571 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 2: Don't lie because if they want to call your bluff, 572 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 2: you might be screwed when looking for rental. And I 573 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 2: know this can be different whether you're in a capital 574 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 2: city or you're somewhere where the rental vacancy rates are 575 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 2: really low and you can google that for fun in 576 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 2: your spare time everybody. But when it's a tight market, 577 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 2: you might not be able to do this. However, where 578 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 2: I grew up and where I rented my first couple 579 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: of places, I would number one, try and organize an 580 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,719 Speaker 2: inspection when it was just me and the agent, and 581 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 2: then two if there was other people, just try and 582 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 2: speak to the rental property manager and just ask them like, hey, 583 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: it's my first property or my second property. What does 584 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 2: the tenant want? Like is it worth my time filling 585 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 2: out this application? If they want a family of three 586 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 2: with the dog, where it's just me and my mate. Like, 587 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 2: so I would just kind of take the off the 588 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 2: record type approach if you can with the rental manager, 589 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 2: just be like, look what are we looking at? It 590 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 2: is it worth me applying? And then build a story 591 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 2: that way, and definitely try and get an inspection with 592 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 2: no one else so you can have that agent and 593 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 2: really suss out the property at your own pace and 594 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 2: all that. 595 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 3: Victoria your tips for getting a rental. 596 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,199 Speaker 1: I like Glenn's approach, but I also think that it 597 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 1: is really hard to have that approach. I live in 598 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 1: the Melbourne I would say I live within ten kilometers 599 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: of the Melbourne CBD. When I was going for my 600 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 1: last rental property with my partner, I would turn up 601 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,880 Speaker 1: to rental inspections and there'd be forty or fifty people 602 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:57,719 Speaker 1: viewing the property. 603 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was my preface, like it's not always possible. 604 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, So it's not always possible. And it is 605 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: incredibly competitive where I live because there is a i 606 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: would say shortage of really good quality properties. So the 607 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: good quality properties that I wanted, so did every other 608 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: mid twenties couple, and we were all competing against each other. 609 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,919 Speaker 1: So the way that I got an edge there was 610 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 1: to turn up to the inspection with my rental application 611 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: completely filled out, printed copies of my ID, copies of 612 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: literally everything that they would ask, so I could hand 613 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: it to the person then and there and say, here's 614 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: my application. It's complete. On top of that, I went 615 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: above and beyond, and some people in my Facebook community 616 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: have already laughed at me for this. I did a 617 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: small cover letter of who I was and who my 618 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: partner was and what we did and what we were 619 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: looking for. Because at the end of the day, the 620 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: rental application might say, oh, Victoria's a financial advisor and 621 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: this is what Victoria's partner does, but that doesn't really 622 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: tell you anything about you know, you as a couple. 623 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: So it was nice to just have a cover letter 624 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: and said, we're looking for our first home together, this 625 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: is what we want to do, this is how it is. 626 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: And then to further that we had a pet, so 627 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: I have a cat, or I now I have two 628 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: cats friends. I've got Henry and Bailey, and I actually 629 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: made a tiny resume for Bailey so that they knew 630 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: that they weren't agreeing to a nightmare cat and that 631 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: he was well groomed and really. 632 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 3: Nice and did the cat have its own resume? 633 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: He does. It's in my Facebook group. I'm happy to 634 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: repost it. He has his own little resume profile. Hi. Yeah. Literally, 635 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: it's like, Hi, my name's Bailey and I'm a Tonkinese 636 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: and these are the things I like. And he's he 637 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: actually had a reference from his vet and from my 638 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: last rental property manager who could verify that he was 639 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: a good cat. And ten hours later we had the 640 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: property and my real estate agent said that's why. 641 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 3: Well, it's obviously works. But let me just put it 642 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 3: on the record that I will never accept any time 643 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 3: you say to me, oh sorry, Ryan, I'm too busy 644 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 3: at the moment, because now I know what you do 645 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 3: with your. 646 00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: Spare time was like five years ago.

Second part of that question was about the unexpected 666 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: costs of renting. 667 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: I think if we just peel back the young in 668 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 2: a little bit and say, look in our budgets, we 669 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 2: generally don't budget for things that are unexpected. We have 670 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 2: an emergency fund. So you would budget for property insurance, 671 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 2: not like contents insurance. You would budget for, I don't know, 672 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 2: a removalist. If you had to move out, you would 673 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 2: budget for I don't know, I don't know if there 674 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 2: is any unexpected costs of renting, and. 675 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 3: So fair to say that's one of the benefits of renting. 676 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: What I was about to say, I think it's actually 677 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: one of the benefits of renting is you know if 678 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: something breaks, if the hot water system in your house breaks. Well, actually, 679 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: my friends, that's on your landlord. 680 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 3: Roseanne says, do you have any tips for helping an 681 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 3: impulse buyer in brackets? 682 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 2: My husband? 683 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: How do I approach the subject with him? 684 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: Well, Glenn, as an impulse buyer, how would you address this. 685 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 2: Speaking to someone who is your partner's message through Glenn? 686 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 2: So basically what I think this is kind of the 687 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 2: premise of how I I encourage people to set up 688 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 2: their budgets, and that is back to the spending plan 689 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 2: and having a blow account. The blow account is to 690 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 2: give the savers permission to spend. So it's allocated an 691 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 2: amount each week, each month, or whatever it is, into 692 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,959 Speaker 2: a separate account. You have permission to spend that if 693 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 2: you're a saver, because your life has to be in balance. 694 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 2: You have to be I believe giving saving and spending 695 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 2: in that kind of order and have some balance there. 696 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 2: Now for the impulse purchases, what I would say is 697 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 2: having that blow account, it can actually bring it to 698 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 2: a front and give you that shock value of I've 699 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 2: only got X amount a week here that I can blow, 700 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 2: so I have to look at the impulses, I have 701 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 2: to actually consider it. Another thing I do in my 702 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 2: own life. I've got what we call a one percent rule, 703 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 2: and that is I don't buy anything at more than 704 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 2: one percent of my take home pay without sleeping on it. 705 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 2: So if you earned eighty grand a year and you 706 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 2: had sixty grand net income, your one percent is six 707 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 2: hundred dollars. You might ever do half a percent, make 708 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 2: some type of rule in your life that you do 709 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 2: not spend money without sleeping on it. So that would 710 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 2: just kind of quarantine and cap that. And I think 711 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 2: it's just my last part of this sermon on the 712 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 2: mount about being an impulse spender. A lot of the 713 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 2: times we spend money and we blow money and we 714 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 2: don't make good financial progress is when we're not organized 715 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 2: and we don't have a goal, or we don't have 716 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 2: something we're aiming for. So if you're aiming to save up, 717 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 2: I'm saving five thousand dollars because I really want this 718 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 2: new mountain bike, or I'm saving three thousand dollars because 719 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 2: I really want this new lounge that's going to be 720 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 2: on sale over Christmas. When I see something online for 721 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 2: eighty dollars that I don't need, and I'm speaking to 722 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 2: me here, I will go no, hang on, I would 723 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 2: rather put that eighty dollars towards my goal. So you've 724 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 2: got an instant front of mind trade off. So it's 725 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: kind of not just one thing. It's about developing money 726 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 2: CYSM and intentionality in your life so you can wake 727 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 2: up and spend and give and save and live intentionally. 728 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: I love that. 729 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, Nvidia, have anything to add to that, because that 730 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 3: was a great answer. 731 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, like maybe you should run cheese on the money. 732 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: I'll get you a wig and a pair of high 733 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: heels and you can be me. 734 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 2: Love it. 735 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: But I think everybody who listens to both of our 736 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: podcasts would know that you and I are very on 737 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,399 Speaker 1: the same page. And so I have a similar rule, 738 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: and that is put twenty four hours between you and 739 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: your spending. So you said sleep on it and one percent. 740 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: I haven't done that. I like that, But I think 741 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: any purchase that is discretionary, that wasn't paying a bill, 742 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: that wasn't food or fuel or you know, things that 743 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: you actually had to spend money on, just sleep on it. 744 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: Put as much time between you and your purchase as possible. 745 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 1: Twenty four hours as a minimum. You know, if you 746 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: could do a week, if you can do a month, 747 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 1: that's fantastic, especially when it comes to things that are 748 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: quite impulsive. So we're not saying you cannot have that ite, 749 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: which makes you want it more. We're just saying you 750 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 1: can have that item next week if you still want it. 751 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 752 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: And I think that that plays into the difference between 753 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: instant gratification and delayed gratification, which puts you in a 754 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: position of control. So it's not saying no, you can't 755 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: have the item, it's just saying no, you can have 756 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 1: it later. And I think that that's the most important 757 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 1: thing here is we're not saying compromise your lifestyle. We're 758 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: not saying you can't have these things that's bad. We're 759 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: just saying, be really thoughtful about your purchases and create goals. 760 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: You'll be in a situation where if you have shared 761 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 1: goals as a couple, you are more likely to commit 762 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: to it. And I can probably guarantee you're not in 763 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: a position where you have really clean, clear financial goals 764 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: that you're working together for, because if you did, you'd 765 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: be in a position where you weren't worrying about your 766 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: partner's blow money. 767 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, can I add to that, because that's so good, 768 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 2: Like it's just the whole sleeping on it, the whole 769 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 2: being planned. The reason this came home to rooster me 770 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 2: a few years ago before I developed kind of the 771 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 2: spending place that I'm doing, is because I got home 772 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 2: one night from shopping in the city and I had 773 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 2: a twelve hundred dollars Apple Watch that I woke up 774 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 2: that morning not planning. And that's a big problem for 775 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 2: a couple of reasons. Number one, it was an impulse purchase. 776 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: Number two, it was freaking over one thousand dollars and 777 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 2: that's the big yeah. And number three, why did I 778 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 2: have as a spender that much money on me in 779 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,439 Speaker 2: my accounts anyway? And that's why I've got my little 780 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 2: iPhone here and my little Tapa pay thing. I don't 781 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 2: have credit cards on any of that stuff. I don't 782 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 2: have access to just mindlessly blow one thousand dollars. 783 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's really important, limiting your access if you're 784 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 1: in a position where you know that's something that you're 785 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: very likely to do. 786 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 2: All right. 787 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 3: Chloe Young has a question about side hustles and small businesses, 788 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 3: and it's sort of two questions. 789 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: So, is Chloe Young that graphics designer that we both 790 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 1: are in love with the work of Glad? 791 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. 792 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: I know, I feel like it might be. 793 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 2: When I hired our graphic designer here, she was too 794 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 2: good for what I needed. 795 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:02,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I think. I think that's who we're 796 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 1: talking about, Chloe, the graphic designer who has a side hustle, 797 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: who's literally too good for us. 798 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, Loyll and Chloe, if you are listening, thank you. 799 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 2: I needed a bit more of an all rounder that 800 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 2: could do some other marketing stuff. 801 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 1: Glenn's recruitment feedback Glenn, you should have been providing that 802 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: feedback during the recruitment process. But what was her question, 803 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: Ryan John? 804 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 3: She asks, what tips do you give someone who's starting 805 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 3: a side hustle or a small business? So maybe just 806 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 3: from each of you, one really important thing to keep 807 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 3: in mind or to check off, or to you know, 808 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 3: have in front of mine before you're starting. And also 809 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 3: I'm going to add one, what's the opposite? What is 810 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 3: something that people should definitely not do? 811 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: So we'll start with you, v okay, So the first 812 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 1: thing for me would be create a budget for your 813 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:51,280 Speaker 1: business and do as much stuff before you actually launch 814 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: your side hustle as possible. So build your website for free, 815 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: you know, organize how you're going to register it, make 816 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: a plan, make a business plan, put every thing together, 817 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: do your budgets. You can essentially create an entire business 818 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 1: model and make a plan, and you know, get quotes 819 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: for the product to be shipped in or whatever that is. 820 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 1: Before you actually start dabbling and putting your feet in 821 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: the water and putting a dollar into that business. What 822 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,800 Speaker 1: I want you to do is create a very clean 823 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 1: and clear plan about how much that's going to cost 824 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,319 Speaker 1: you and where you need to put that money. So 825 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 1: if you're starting a side hustle, no doubt you probably 826 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: have a little bit of a budget to spend, whether 827 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,760 Speaker 1: that's five hundred dollars or five thousand dollars. I think 828 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: working out what your business plan is and how you're 829 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: going to allocate that budget so that you get the 830 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: best bang for buck upfront is really important because too 831 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:45,240 Speaker 1: often do I see small business owners prioritizing the wrong things. 832 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: If you're just starting, social media is fantastic and a 833 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: really great free way of starting to promote your product 834 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: and seeing small business investing ten thousand dollars in a 835 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 1: website from the get go, when they don't even have, 836 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 1: you know, their first sale through the door, would argue, 837 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: is a really terrible idea. When you can go online, 838 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 1: create a free website so that your clients can find 839 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: you and do as much stuff for free, and then 840 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: upgrade once you've got cash flow. So for me budgeting, 841 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 1: hands down, what's yours, Glen, Yeah. 842 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 2: I'll go a different angle because that's I can't add 843 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 2: anything more perfect than that. I would say, as soon 844 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 2: as you step out into that world of I'm self employed, 845 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 2: I'm a site hustler. I use the example of a baker. 846 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 2: So you're a baker, you're employed as a baker, you 847 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 2: then go and start your own bakery. So that minute 848 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 2: you start your own bakery, my friend, you are no 849 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,879 Speaker 2: longer a baker. The baking, the day to day has 850 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 2: to take care of itself. You can't be learning your craft, 851 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 2: practicing on your own clients. That has to take care 852 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 2: of itself. You are now a business owner first and 853 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 2: foremost all your energy. And this is what I do 854 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 2: when I started my business the first year, like, yeah, 855 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,400 Speaker 2: you're gonna help people in your network and this is 856 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 2: what happens like those people that and I love Thermo 857 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 2: Mix parties because you go to the Thermo Mix party 858 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 2: and you get the mushroom Risotto made it and all that. 859 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: Stuff, and that's awesome, a lot of Thermomix parts just 860 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: to get free dinner. 861 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 2: But basically what happens is some of these money when yeah, 862 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 2: that's right, some of these small businesses. Small businesses fail 863 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 2: seventy five percent within the first kind of five years 864 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:26,320 Speaker 2: and because basically people they use their personal networks and 865 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 2: they run out of people to serve and sell stuff too. 866 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,400 Speaker 2: So in my first year of small business, I focused 867 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 2: on my whole energy was focusing on who can send 868 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 2: me clients? So I met with thirty two local businesses. 869 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 2: So I had a financial planning business. I'm at with 870 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,879 Speaker 2: thirty two mortgage brokers, accountants, lawyers. Hey, I'm glad, Hey 871 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,760 Speaker 2: I do this. Can can I help any of your clients? 872 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 2: Because then if you get that supply nailed, all the 873 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,240 Speaker 2: other stuff will take over itself. You don't have clients, 874 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 2: you don't have people to work on, you don't have 875 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 2: a small business, and then that will build the sustainability 876 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 2: that you've got a constant inflow of new business. So 877 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 2: I love that you are a business owner. You're not 878 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 2: a graphic designer now, Chloe, you're a business owner. Chloe. 879 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 3: Pay attention, Pay attention, Chloe, and just on that is 880 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 3: that as well as time management, is it also just 881 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 3: a mindset of you're a business owner, not a baker 882 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 3: to use. 883 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 2: It's a mindset because you need So what the trap 884 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 2: can be is as the baker working in your own bakery. Now, 885 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 2: so you could be the best bakery in the world, 886 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 2: but you can't run a business like and you won't 887 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 2: make any money. And when you run a business yourself, 888 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 2: you actually need to make good money because you're risking 889 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:44,240 Speaker 2: your time, your effort, your money. You're risking someone slipping 890 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 2: over in your shop and suing you. So you're taking 891 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 2: all this inherent risk on and risk needs reward, that's 892 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 2: a basic concept. So you need a premium for that 893 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 2: risk that you're taking. So you must must must know 894 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 2: that you are first and foremost a business owner and 895 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 2: not worry about making the best hot cross barn, which 896 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 2: all that's hygiene. You've got to be good at what 897 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 2: you do. You've got to do it, but don't stand 898 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 2: around trying to perfect the best hot cross barn if 899 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 2: you've got no customers to sell it to. 900 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: I think that's really important as well. I love that. 901 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. 902 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 3: Can I a follow up question for both of you, 903 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:18,280 Speaker 3: just sort of on that topic. 904 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 2: Yeah? Is it fair to say. 905 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 3: And I could be way off here, that if you're 906 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 3: a baker, let's stick with our example and you just 907 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 3: love baking bread, yeap. That doesn't have to mean you 908 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 3: have to own a bakery, because you might not be 909 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:33,360 Speaker 3: interested in running a business. 910 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 1: You just want to bake the best bread. 911 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 3: Conversely, would it be true that maybe you're not the 912 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:41,280 Speaker 3: best baker, but you would love to run a bakery, 913 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,359 Speaker 3: And so it doesn't mean because you weren't the best 914 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 3: bakery in the world, you can't run a really successful bakery. Ever, too, 915 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 3: like mutually exclusive. 916 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 2: I think if I can jump in Victoria, I think 917 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 2: it's a little bit fraught with danger. A couple of 918 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 2: years ago, a friend of a friend of mine in 919 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 2: Sydney we looked at buying a you know, we're like, oh, 920 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 2: let's buy a Domino's Peach of Friends size. You know, 921 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 2: you've got to know, you've got to know how the 922 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 2: business works. You've got to know the processes. You've got 923 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 2: to know the lingo. So I think if you did 924 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 2: want to run a bakery and not be a baker, 925 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 2: I think you need to be in that world. Work there, 926 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 2: just beat the counter serving bread. You've got to learn 927 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 2: that world because that will make you a better business 928 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 2: owner if you understand the business. 929 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 1: I would one thousand percent agree with that, Glenn, as 930 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: a business owner and you are as well like me, 931 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 1: Understanding every single aspect of my business means that if 932 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: my team, and I really don't think they ever will, 933 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: but should someone on my team fail me, I can 934 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 1: step straight in and take over that role. So I 935 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: think it's incredibly the audio for this podcast. When there 936 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 1: is a will, there is a way round, John. But 937 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 1: I think knowing where to be able to step in 938 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 1: and do everything in your business is arguably essential, especially 939 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,800 Speaker 1: when you're a small business. You can't rely on other people, 940 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: and I know inherently how to I would argue how 941 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 1: to run a financial services business because I am a 942 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 1: financial advisor and I still see clients, albeit I don't 943 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 1: see heaps of clients. For me, that's really important so 944 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,240 Speaker 1: that I'm always staying in touch with how that business 945 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: is running and what compliance look like and what regulation 946 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: is so that I can be the best team member 947 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: I can be. But on the flip side, I don't 948 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: see anything wrong with you saying I just want to 949 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,200 Speaker 1: be a baker. Go get a great job, like, get 950 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,879 Speaker 1: a great job in a bakery, like not everyone has 951 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: to be a business owner. I feel like there's genuinely 952 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: too much pressure on people to be the best at it, 953 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 1: but then go out on their own, like you don't 954 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 1: have to if that's not aligned to your goals and values. 955 00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and if if you're hating life where you're working, 956 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 2: it doesn't mean to do the my O thing is it? 957 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 2: Go get a new job, like just don't put up 958 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 2: with crap. The older I get, the lesser put up 959 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 2: with crap. 960 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: Okay, on that note, Ryan, is there any final parting 961 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:52,439 Speaker 1: questions you want to ask us? 962 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 3: No? But I was just going to add, even though 963 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 3: the ven diagram of she's on the money and what 964 00:44:58,239 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 3: Glenn James does, I feel like a lot of people 965 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 3: are in both communities.

No one's ever 990 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 1: one hundred percent correct. I mean, we're not giving away 991 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 1: false information. But at the end of the day, just 992 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: because my opinion is on a podcast doesn't make it 993 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,919 Speaker 1: the be all end all, And I'm sure you feel 994 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 1: the same way, Glenn, like it's so good, especially when 995 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 1: talking about money, to get heaps of opinions so you 996 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: can formulate one that is perfect for you totally.
