And 343 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 4: then my one my friends send me this. 344 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 6: Thing and I thought it was just from Merrybeck Counsel. 345 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 6: So Mary Beck is like, you know, Brunswick, all that 346 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 6: kind of area, and they're basically doing a like parking 347 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 6: fine refund situation, and so it's you may be eligible. 348 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 4: I for some reason, wasn't with your five hundred five 349 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 4: had a thousand parking. 350 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 6: Fines, surely one of them is eligible anyway, none of 351 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 6: them were. But and then I love a lovely producer 352 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 6: googled it and I think there's like a few councils 353 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 6: doing it at the moment, so maybe just have a 354 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 6: Google and see what is available. But for Merryback in particular, 355 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 6: all you had to do was kind of you just 356 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 6: had to use your regro, just chuck it in and 357 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 6: if something's eligible, then I think you have to prove 358 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 6: that you were the I guess recipient of the infringement. 359 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 3: But it'll be different for every accountcl it would be different. 360 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 3: So that's why I'm saying, Like with Barry Beck, that's 361 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 3: what the process was. Yeah, well I needed was my 362 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 3: registration and then yeah, for some unknown reason, nothing was eligible. 363 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 3: And I'm like, every single day it feels like I've 364 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 3: got a new parking fine.

My question for you 394 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 7: ladies is about norvated leases. I run a small business 395 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 7: and I've recently had an employee ask about the potential option. 396 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 7: I don't know much about it, quite honestly, and I 397 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 7: was wondering if you guys could explain what anovated lease 398 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 7: is the difference between a normal finance loan and the 399 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 7: benefits for an employee as well as an employer that 400 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 7: would be really appreciated. Thank you, and keep doing your thing. 401 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 4: Ah, that's so sweet, thank you. 402 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 6: I don't really know about how norvated leases work everywhere, 403 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 6: but I just know that at my job they did 404 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 6: butter it up a little bit because we have a 405 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 6: company that is attached to our company that offer this, 406 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 6: and it's like it kind of comes out like the 407 00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 6: repayments come out of your pre text seller, and so 408 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 6: I was like, okay, let's have a look. And then 409 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 6: I like kind of like inquired, and then they set 410 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,479 Speaker 6: me like a full breakdown, and it was just I 411 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 6: was like, I just want like a shitty little secondhand car, 412 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 6: no more than I don't know ten k, which I 413 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,439 Speaker 6: know is already a lot. And then they set me 414 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 6: the full breakdown, and I calculated that my after tax 415 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 6: pay would pay the exact amount off no interest. But 416 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 6: then the pre tax pay it was like sixty thousand 417 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 6: dollars and I was like, are you telling me that 418 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 6: I'm paying sixty thousand It's something like that, something crazy. 419 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 6: It's insane on the car because it's like the benefit 420 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 6: is that you barely notice the repayments because it's coming 421 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,719 Speaker 6: out of your pre tax salary but yeah, it just 422 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 6: felt really sneaky, and so I don't know that this 423 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,719 Speaker 6: is the situation everywhere. I just said that in this 424 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,199 Speaker 6: particular situation, it was very like, Yeah, it was just 425 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 6: very sneaky, and I think they did it in a way. 426 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 6: It was like, look, after tax, you're only paying the 427 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 6: exact amount of the car. I was like, no, but 428 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 6: I'm paying way more, I fear. So I don't know 429 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 6: if that's the case everywhere. I just be really cautious. 430 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 6: Maybe I had so many questions. If you're saying that 431 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 6: you inquired on a ten thousand dollar car and then 432 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 6: it was going to be sixty thousand dollars, like what 433 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 6: the hell novated lease that are you using? Because that's 434 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 6: not just crazy, that's like illegal, No, not illegal, it's 435 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:17,479 Speaker 6: not do you know what. 436 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, things like that are never illegal. If you signed 437 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 3: a contract, like if you were given the information that said, 438 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 3: oh you can borrow money from Bill and he'll you know, 439 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 3: charge you ninety five percent interest, and you, you know, 440 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 3: maybe didn't know what you're doing and signed it. Still, sorry, 441 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: that doesn't make it illegal. It means that they had 442 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 3: a really good deal and you got a really terrible deal. 443 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 4: You did the right thing, doing the math and doing 444 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 4: your own research. Yeah, one hundred percent. Jess, would you 445 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 4: do an ovated lease? What are your thoughts? I mean, 446 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 4: I'll be honest, I don't know a huge amount. 447 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 5: We did an episode on novated leases, but that was 448 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 5: purely from an employee perspective. 449 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 4: Some very interesting to you from you on like the 450 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 4: employer that like why would an employer offer it? 451 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 5: Yeah. The other big benefit that I know of novated 452 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 5: leases is it had it will reduce your taxable income. Man, 453 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 5: when if you're someone who sits in a higher tax 454 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 5: bracket or you're just teetering on the edge, then doing 455 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 5: an ovated lease could bring you down, which is obviously 456 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 5: often quite a big benefit, depending on what that looks 457 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 5: like for you. I personally, this is one of those things, 458 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 5: like my parents always said, that just has all it 459 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 5: exists in my head and it's not even necessarily correct, 460 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 5: but it's just so drummed into me. But like a 461 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 5: car loan is one of the stupidest loans you can get, 462 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 5: and I know, big fat caveat on that most people 463 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 5: can't afford to get a car up front. That is 464 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 5: such a privilege to say in the same breath. They 465 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 5: would also say buying a brand new car is often 466 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 5: stupid because it devalues when you drive it out. 467 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 4: It's like in their minds. 468 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 5: So those two concepts went hand in hand, and that's 469 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 5: something that I've just kind of carried on. So like 470 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 5: when I bought my car, it was secondhand, and I 471 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 5: saved fruit in cash and it took me a long time. Okay, 472 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 5: big dog, I know it was literally every dollar that 473 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 5: I had. 474 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 4: I really cried, but I did it. And I mean 475 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 4: I say that it was I think twelve thousand dollars. 476 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 4: What was that? So much money? Oh, especially of money, 477 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 4: the money that you had at the time. And it's 478 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 4: very privileged that I could do that. 479 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 5: Now, it wasn't Actually it was hard work. But I 480 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 5: recognize that not everybody. You know, there might be an emergency. 481 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 5: People need cars to get. 482 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,479 Speaker 3: Like, don't get me wrong, I think we Sorry, I 483 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 3: just really want to derail this completely. We talk about 484 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 3: privilege a lot, and like we are so privileged, like 485 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 3: you and I are sitting on couches in Australia. We 486 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 3: have so much genuine privilege, Jess, you and I are white, 487 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 3: Like that privilege is undeniable. 488 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I also hate. 489 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 3: When people say I'm so privileged to be able to Sorry, 490 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 3: you won't given anything, Jess. Your parents don't fund your lifestyle. 491 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 3: They have never financially supported you. You have always worked 492 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 3: as hard as you possibly can to save every single dollar, 493 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 3: and I just I get quite frustrated when. 494 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 4: Even you do this back. 495 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 3: And it's so nice because I think that you know, 496 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 3: privilege checking is really important, but like, you worked your 497 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 3: butt off, and I don't always want to palm it 498 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 3: off to privilege. Yes, I'm going to ignore each my 499 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 3: privilege and talk about those things, but I don't think 500 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 3: every time we talk about, hey, I actually achieved this thing, 501 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 3: you have to outline the privilege associated with it. 502 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 4: I try it very hard. 503 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 3: To make sure, especially on social media and like content, 504 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 3: to always contextualize it to go hey, cool, like I 505 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 3: am really lucky to have all of this, but you 506 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 3: worked really hard for that.

I saved twelve rand for my first car. Sorry, Jess, 509 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: tell me how you did that? How did you save 510 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 3: twelve grand? 511 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 4: I worked three jobs? 512 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 6: Thank you? 513 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 5: I just don't wannyone to think I'm shitting on people 514 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 5: who do know You're not You're not. 515 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 3: And do you know what, there are a lot of 516 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 3: people in our community who work three jobs and still 517 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: can't save a friggin dollar. 518 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 4: And that's timely, friggin hard. Yeah, And we hear. 519 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 3: You, and we know you're there, and we hope that 520 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 3: at some point these episodes are inspiration that you too 521 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 3: can put yourself in that position, and you too will 522 00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 3: have the freedom. 523 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 4: But some times, do you know what? Just getting by 524 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 4: is enough? Absolutely? And so I think, like back to 525 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 4: the Q, would I try about it? 526 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 7: No? 527 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 4: Yes, so fine now, but you buy amen? 528 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 5: But I think would I take out an ovated lease, 529 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 5: I would look into it, I would run the numbers, 530 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 5: I'd probably talk to you, But I my preference for 531 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 5: me personally has always been where possible to just not 532 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 5: take on a loan. Generally, Yeah, I think anovated least 533 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 5: can be a good option if the tax benefits are 534 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 5: big enough. But if you're paying sixty thousand for a 535 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 5: ten thousand dollars car, then I just think, yeah, that's crazy. 536 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 4: But I feel like you're much better placed. 537 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm going to stop talking about other stuff, 538 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 3: and I'll actually tell you about an ovated lease, and 539 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 3: the name should be something that you consider as well. 540 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 3: We're talking about a lease, we're not talking about you 541 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 3: purchasing a car. 542 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 4: It's not a car loan. It's not a car loan. 543 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 3: And my favorite way to think of an evated least 544 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 3: is a three way. Yeah, it's a three way, and 545 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 3: it's between your employer, it's between you, and it's between 546 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 3: leasing company. So your employee they lease a car, and 547 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 3: then the employer agrees to take on the lease or 548 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 3: a payments using a mix of the employees pre tax 549 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: and post tax salary. So if Jess, you came to 550 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 3: me and you said, oh, in a novated lease and 551 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 3: for some reason it made a lot of sense for 552 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: you personally, and I was happy to do that. I 553 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 3: would just organize for your pre tax and some of 554 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 3: your post tax income to go. 555 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 4: To that company. 556 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, but the company is involved to basically take care 557 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 3: of all the admin and the finance side of things 558 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 3: and like honestly the car maintenance and you can deal 559 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 3: with that after that. And it's sometimes known as salary packaging. 560 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 3: So we've talked about this before and I mean for 561 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 3: the employee, there are a number of benefits. So say 562 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 3: you don't have a car and you need a car, 563 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 3: you don't have twelve grand to buy one, right, There 564 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 3: are tax savings so kind of money when like lease 565 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 3: payments are made. 566 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 4: Partially from your pre tax income. 567 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 3: Which reduces your taxable income as you were talking about before, Jess, 568 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 3: which potentially could result in more take home pay potentially, 569 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 3: like if you did your numbers right, to be honest, 570 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 3: you'd have to be on the cusp of a salary 571 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 3: band for that to make sense. And there's a very 572 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 3: small amount of people that I think would hit that 573 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:13,239 Speaker 3: convenience salary. Packaging a car like putting it on an 574 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 3: evated lease, it's bloody easy. 575 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 4: Like the car. 576 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 3: Repayments, the fuel, the maintenance, the insurance, you're regiro all 577 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 3: into that payment and you can and if you're someone 578 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 3: that likes those things, right, yep. And I mean it's 579 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 3: relatively cash flow friendly, Like we would say that it 580 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 3: reduces the upfront cost. If you're having to save twelve grand, 581 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 3: like you don't need a deposit, that's kind of a 582 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 3: money win you could probably then I'm not trying to 583 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 3: pitch this to you, but like, you know, if you 584 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 3: had five grand as a deposit, the car you could 585 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 3: buy for five grand is very different to the car 586 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 3: that you could potentially afford through an ovated lease. 587 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 4: So maybe you're like, oh. 588 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 3: I could afford to buy a newer or a better 589 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 3: car than purchasing a five grand one out right, and there's. 590 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 4: No GST. 591 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 3: JST on the purchase price and running costs is often 592 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 3: not paid by the employee because the leasing company claims 593 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 3: that and that's where their benefits start to kick in. 594 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 3: If you flip it, like you come to me and say, hey, 595 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 3: own anvated lease, Like, what are the benefits for me 596 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 3: as an employer? It's valued perk, Like you're probably going 597 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 3: to be like, oh my god, through my. 598 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 4: Work, I can get this novated lease. 599 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 3: Lots of companies, bigger companies usually find an ovated lease 600 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 3: partner so in their salary packaging they can say, and 601 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 3: we can give you this because it sounds shiny. Yeah, 602 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: I don't love it because I think that that means 603 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 3: that talent and people that want to work for you 604 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 3: maybe think you're attractive, when that's not. Actually the biggest 605 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 3: perk ever doesn't cost me a cent it does cost 606 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 3: me a little bit of admin. I mean, I've got 607 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 3: to set it up with the leasing company. I would 608 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 3: have to organize your pay. But once that's done, that's fine. 609 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 3: And to be honest, just we have a bookkeeper at 610 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 3: she's on the money that like organizes all of that. 611 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 3: I still do the pace like I process them manually 612 00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 3: still because I'm good trolling, but like somebody else, we 613 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: do the calculations for me and then each month tell me, hey, 614 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 3: you need to pay ex here and why here, and 615 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 3: then Jess's salary leftover would go into her bank account 616 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 3: and I'd be like, okay, cool. And then FBT. So 617 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 3: you might have heard of FBT before. And I was 618 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 3: having a conversation with my friend Shelby the other day. 619 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 3: Actually she's a business owner as well, and we pay 620 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 3: a lot of FBT in this business and that's okay. 621 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 3: But FBT is fringe benefits tax and it's forty seven percent, 622 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 3: and fringe benefits tax is something that we pay on 623 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,239 Speaker 3: benefits to an employee that are above and beyond what 624 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 3: the government deems to be like the minimum. 625 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 4: And like, this is not me complaining. 626 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 3: In fact, I'm proud of the fact that we pay 627 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 3: FBT because we do go above and beyond it. She's 628 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 3: on the money to like reward stuff and you know, 629 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 3: gift them things that we think that they would really 630 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 3: like as opposed to going, Oh, I can actually only 631 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 3: spend a top of three hundred dollars on my staff 632 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 3: member each year, like that wouldn't work with all of 633 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 3: the lunches and the dinners that we go to. 634 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 4: We do gifts, We do a lot of travel. 635 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 3: That travel sometimes like has to be split between Okay, 636 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 3: well that really was kind of a holiday for everybody, 637 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:17,919 Speaker 3: Like we took a few days to go to Disneyland. 638 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 3: We can't claim that on text, but we can claim 639 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 3: the part we were at the conference, right, So FBT 640 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 3: kind of adds up in our business. And I'm just 641 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 3: giving you context. I think as it's pervy interest, it's 642 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 3: just interesting and you might go, oh, well, why would 643 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 3: they do that? But often it's FBT neutral. So usually 644 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 3: it's offset via the employees post tax contributions, so the 645 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 3: employee pays, not the employer. So like, FBT not my 646 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 3: problem yours, Jessica Ricci. I mean I feel like I've 647 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 3: sold it. I've made you go, oh, do you want 648 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 3: annovated lease. Now you're probably like slay like I can 649 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 3: see begspace. 650 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 4: It's interesting conversation. 651 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 3: Later, let's just point out a few of the red flags. Girl, 652 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 3: You would be locked into a lease, not a loan repayment. 653 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 3: A lease, you're borrowing the car from them. If you 654 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 3: leave your job, you actually have to take over the 655 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 3: payments in full in your post tax income yourself, or 656 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 3: find another employer who would take that over for you. 657 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 3: So before you ever take on an ovated lease, please 658 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 3: check if you can afford it post tax, because you 659 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 3: don't want to be stuck in a job. 660 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 4: And we'll get to this in our perfect question, but you. 661 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 3: Don't want to be stuck in a job because you 662 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 3: can't afford car repayments totally. It's also not always cheaper, 663 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 3: so depending on your income, your car choice, how much 664 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 3: you use it, how much fuel goes into it, it 665 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 3: can actually be more expensive. And I mean you touched 666 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 3: on this before, Beck than just buying it out right 667 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 3: or going and getting a car loan. 668 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 4: I am not recommending a. 669 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 3: Car loan as just a you can have a new 670 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 3: car every couple of years, Like I am very much 671 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 3: on the what would you say I'm on the team 672 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 3: of buy a car, thrash it, drive it into the ground, 673 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 3: drive it into the ground. I know a lot of 674 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 3: people go, oh, but you want to like resell it, Like, 675 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 3: I'm not buying a car for resale value. Most of 676 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 3: the time. I'm buying a car because I need to 677 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 3: get from A to B. And you best believe I 678 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 3: am getting the most out of this vehicle completely, like 679 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 3: I would want it to last as long as possible. 680 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 4: And Jess, you know this, But I don't think Beck knows. 681 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 3: I drove my car that I bought way back when 682 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 3: I have my very very first job until I had 683 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 3: a baby because I couldn't fit a car seat in it. 684 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then I was like, damn it, we need 685 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 4: your car. 686 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 3: I was annoyed by that because I was so excited 687 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 3: about how economic that little car was. Yeah, girl, Petro 688 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 3: was so cheap. If you have a cheap car, that 689 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 3: is a flex Like, I don't want to see your big, 690 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 3: bougie expensive car. I want to see your cheap card. 691 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 3: I want you to be like I'm a big dog 692 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 3: with of this. Like anyway, just keep it clean, all right, Like, 693 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 3: just keep the shit inside your car clean. We could 694 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: be proud of it, irrespective of how much it is worth. 695 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 4: So with leases, because it's a lease. 696 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 3: Not your own vehicle, there are kilometer limits and we're 697 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 3: in tear costs that might come into it and rules 698 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 3: that you might not be aware of. And you actually 699 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 3: don't own the car unless you completely pay out the lease. 700 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 3: And sometimes you get to the end of the lease 701 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 3: term and then they go, oh that's great, Beck, so 702 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 3: to buy the car. 703 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 4: Now, did you want to buy the car? And you 704 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 4: go I thought I did. 705 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's actually another seventeen thousand dollars to buy that 706 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 3: car outright from us. 707 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 6: Oh my god. 708 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: And that's where things, you know, add up. But I mean, 709 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 3: it doesn't really matter how it really impacts the employer. 710 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 3: As I said before, admin it can make exits complicated, 711 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 3: like if I want someone to leave the business, or 712 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 3: someone wants to leave the business, you need to work 713 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 3: out least transfer and like logistics and what if they 714 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 3: don't want the car in any way, It can be 715 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 3: quite complicated. And then it can also be a little 716 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 3: bit confusing. So if a company and this is not 717 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 3: offer me personally, it can be confusing. It's a if 718 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 3: this is not community catered properly and you have been 719 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 3: given a salary package back or jess and it says 720 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 3: you can get an ovated lease. Sometimes you might think 721 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 3: that you get a car with your job. Yeah, and 722 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 3: you don't necessarily get a car with your job. You 723 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 3: could pay for a car and they give you this 724 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 3: structure to buy a car. But like I have seen 725 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 3: people in our community who have novateed leases and they're like, God, 726 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 3: it's great, it comes with my job. Yeah, well, actually 727 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 3: it would have been better for you to take the cash. 728 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 3: And they didn't know that was an option. They just 729 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 3: thought that they had to get a company car quote. Yeah, 730 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 3: And I think that that is a bit of a 731 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 3: red flag because it's not well communicated in your comms 732 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 3: with whoever. Yeah, So whether or not it's a good 733 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 3: option is completely up to you. I remember growing up, 734 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 3: my dad always had an ovateed lease through like the 735 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 3: business he worked for, and it just made sense for them, 736 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 3: like because my dad was a car guy and loved it, 737 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 3: and like it just made sense for me. Find if 738 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 3: you just purely base it on the financials, I'd say no, no, 739 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 3: but that's just me juicy DM Oh my god, I 740 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 3: can't wait, all right, So the juicy DM this week 741 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 3: has come in and like already had our community and 742 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 3: our team talking. Hi, she's on the money. I need 743 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 3: your help. I'm in a job where I could earn 744 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 3: really good money, but it'll take time to climb that ladder. 745 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 3: I've always wanted to be a teacher. I'd have more 746 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 3: time with my kids during school holidays, the option to 747 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 3: work anywhere, and perks like discounted school fees, which is 748 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 3: honestly a money winning this economy. But the idea of 749 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 3: going back to study for a few years and taking 750 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 3: on another forty thousand dollars worth of debt is making 751 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 3: me second guests literally everything. I keep thinking, the more 752 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 3: I earn, the more I'll be able to give my 753 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 3: kids the life I had growing up. But what if 754 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 3: I chase that and ignore a job I've always dreamed of. 755 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 3: I have three kids, and I'm so anxious I won't 756 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 3: be able to support them financially like my parents did 757 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 3: for me and my sister. 758 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 4: What would you do? What would you do with your 759 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 4: three kids? 760 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 5: Beck? 761 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 6: This is so when you first like tease. At the start, 762 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 6: I was like, follow your dreams, girl, But then I'm like, like, 763 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 6: I kind of a little detour, but like, what do 764 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 6: you actually do if you can't afford school fees? 765 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 5: Like does public school fee like public school option? 766 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 6: Oh, so there's like private school and that's with but 767 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 6: there's no fees with public school. 768 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 5: With the public school, they're very low and then there's 769 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 5: a support for people who are in lower socioeconomic areas 770 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 5: or people financial hardship, whereas at a private school, I 771 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 5: mean they could be scholarships and things, but it's generally 772 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 5: much more expensive. 773 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 3: Also just too but in their elbow recently announced that 774 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 3: they are now fully funding all public schools in Australia. 775 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 3: Is actually very exciting because for a while there were 776 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 3: always like top ups and things that had to happen, 777 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 3: and obviously that is not actually possible for a lot 778 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 3: of people. So fully funded schools like not private schools, 779 00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:00,040 Speaker 3: obviously that would still great. I'm team public school. I 780 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 3: went to public school. I don't think I turned out 781 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:04,399 Speaker 3: that bad. 782 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 4: I completely agree. 783 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 3: It's a conversation, and I mean it's a conversation that 784 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 3: my husband and I have been having recently because. 785 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 4: We have RV well and we're like, well, what do 786 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 4: we do. 787 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 3: We meant to like you know, and we thankfully and 788 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 3: very again privileged to be in this position where we 789 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 3: are having a conversation where I'm like, Okay, we have 790 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 3: this cash flow. Should we continue to invest it. Should 791 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,280 Speaker 3: we redirect our investments and our you know, life savings 792 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 3: into a private school? Is that something that is of 793 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 3: value to us? Or should we be going down the 794 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 3: route of a public school. I mean I went to 795 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,439 Speaker 3: public school. My husband went to public school. He ended 796 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 3: up going to like a private school for like year 797 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 3: eleven and twelve, but like before that, I believe it 798 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 3: was a public school. 799 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:48,399 Speaker 4: I don't think we turned out that bad. 800 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:48,879 Speaker 7: I don't. 801 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 4: I actually don't know what the difference is. 802 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 5: So a lot of people argue that private schools are 803 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 5: better resource. So there's I would say, I believe a 804 00:35:55,920 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 5: misconception that private schools have better education levels that they're 805 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 5: you know, often the classes are smaller, so you know, 806 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 5: you can have more attention on each student things like that. 807 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 4: And yes, they are better resource because they charge a 808 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:09,479 Speaker 4: lot more for people. 809 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 3: They've just got more cash, and I mean, more money 810 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 3: means more resources, right. 811 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 5: But like you know, if you look at test scores, 812 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 5: a be things. So the public school I went to 813 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 5: was in an area where there was I think four 814 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 5: private schools and one public school, and so obviously the 815 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 5: public school took everyone who couldn't afford to go to 816 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 5: private school, which is the bucket I fell into. And 817 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 5: the big thing for our area was the public school 818 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 5: tested better every year by far than any of the 819 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 5: private school. 820 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 4: Cool, which kind of so good, that's such a flex Yeah, 821 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 4: I think. 822 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 5: Like private schools often have like fancy I remember one 823 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 5: of them. We went to their theater. They had fancy 824 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 5: atrium and they have all of these cool things. 825 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 4: But like who cares? Yeah it does. Some people care 826 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 4: a lot, like mean, like no mean parents would care. 827 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 4: But like as like when I was when I just 828 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 4: don't know, you don't I would. 829 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 6: Never I would None of that would ever have changed 830 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 6: how how much I gets head in school. 831 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 4: I did not care in school and. 832 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 3: Don't even care. If you paid more for this, I'd 833 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 3: care less. Yeah, that's the case for probably a lot 834 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 3: of kids anyway. 835 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 4: Sorry, Yes, it is a whole conversation. 836 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 3: I am going to make the assumption and put it 837 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 3: on the table that this person clearly wants to pay 838 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 3: for private school. 839 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're saying they get the discount. That would be 840 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 4: my assumption. 841 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 3: Person who's clearly decided that's a value to them, and 842 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 3: pop off like that's why. 843 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 6: Totally okay, that's good because I I didn't understand the 844 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 6: school feast thing. I was like, like, that just seems 845 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 6: really mean that they're anyway, But this makes more sense now, 846 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,879 Speaker 6: So I think in that situation, God, it's so hard 847 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 6: with kids being involved, because usually I would be like, 848 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 6: just follow your dreams because in like thirty years. 849 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 4: Responsibilities, I know. I'm like, that's it. 850 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 3: It's a challenging situation to be in because you feel 851 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 3: this responsibility to give your kids absolutely everything and the 852 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 3: best of the best. But if you're not your best, 853 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 3: how are you giving your kids everything if you're unhappy? 854 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 4: That's what I mean. 855 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 6: And so like sorry, as I was saying, like I 856 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 6: think that if you yeah, usually I would say follow 857 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 6: your dreams and all this kind of stuff, and I 858 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 6: usually my advice would be like in five years time, 859 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 6: you could be five years closer to your dream or 860 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 6: exactly where you are and maybe making more money, but 861 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 6: like not very happy. And I think that really the 862 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 6: best thing to do would just be like kind of 863 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 6: figure out what your finances look like and really just 864 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 6: like sounds very boring and also I don't know, but 865 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 6: just like write down everything that you can possibly see 866 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 6: coming up in your future financially and figure out if 867 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 6: it's actually going to be doable, and if it isn't 868 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 6: right now, then in the future maybe when your kids 869 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 6: are a little bit more independent, or maybe when like 870 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 6: all these school fees and things like that you don't 871 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 6: have to worry about anymore, even if that means you 872 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 6: have to wait until they're like eighteen nineteen, just so 873 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 6: that eventually you'll be able to do that and be 874 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 6: able to live your dream and pursue that. 875 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 4: But if it's not feaesble right now, I think, do 876 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 4: the financially smart thing. 877 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 3: Crazy, Yeah, but you've got a responsor and I can 878 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 3: see where you're coming from, Like you've got this responsibility 879 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 3: and it's crazy because I know both of you don't 880 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 3: have kids and I do. And I was always like, 881 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 3: I'm just going to be me, like I'm always going 882 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,399 Speaker 3: to like want to do these things, but like once 883 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 3: you have a kid, you're like, it's so crazy and 884 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:16,720 Speaker 3: I never thought i'd be this person. 885 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 4: But your priority is shift. 886 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 3: It's not just like, oh, I want to spend more 887 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 3: time with my kids. It's like I would give up 888 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,319 Speaker 3: everything for that kid. Like, if you're telling me he 889 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 3: can't have something, I'm telling you right now I'll bend 890 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 3: over backwards to make sure he can. 891 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 4: And it's not about entitlement or spoiling your kids. 892 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 3: But if someone said this is the best option for 893 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 3: your child, I'd be like, Okay, well we're going to 894 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 3: have to do it. 895 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, what would you do? You've got three kids. 896 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 5: I would say I do agree with bex perspective. I 897 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,360 Speaker 5: am someone the majority of my friends are teachers, interestingly, 898 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 5: and they teach. 899 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,240 Speaker 4: Him teacher vibes, you'd be a great teacher. 900 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 5: I always loved his honey growing up. I think that 901 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 5: I would say, talk to some teachers because my friends 902 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 5: teaching both private and public across the board. The feedback 903 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 5: on teaching that I personally not great. It's an underappreciated, underresourced, 904 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 5: underpaid industry based on whatever and has told me. People 905 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 5: are exiting the teaching profession on mass at the moment, 906 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 5: like they're putting bonuses into encourage people to be teachers 907 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 5: because there's almost a shortage because so many people are 908 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 5: leaving the profession, not to say that you will not 909 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 5: enjoy teaching. Plenty of people to research, do your research. 910 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 5: Can you volunteer in a classroom? Can you get a 911 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 5: teacher's aid role or something that. 912 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 4: Does Oh yeah, that's a good one. Yep, yeah, something 913 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 4: it doesn't. 914 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 5: Require you to have a qualification to take on the hextet, 915 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 5: et cetera, but can give you a bit of a 916 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 5: taste of what it's like, because I think, you know, 917 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 5: my friends were all they went into teaching because they 918 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 5: were really passionate about, you know, the next generation, and 919 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,720 Speaker 5: they have so much love to give. They want to nurture, 920 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 5: they want to do all of these incredible things. But 921 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,359 Speaker 5: the reality of what that is sometimes doesn't always line up. 922 00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 5: And of course there's lots of teachers out there who 923 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 5: love their jobs. And you know, I'm not saying that 924 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 5: you wouldn't like it, but I'd say, before you take 925 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 5: on this debt, particularly because something you're stressed about, can 926 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 5: you test the waters first. 927 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would agree with that. 928 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 3: I have had a friend move from a corporate role, 929 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 3: a very corporate role, had babies and decided that teaching 930 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 3: was for her, went into that and like she does 931 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 3: it she was born to be a teacher. Yeah, like 932 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 3: absolutely through and through the conversations I'm having at the moment. 933 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 3: I caught up with her for dinner a little while ago, 934 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 3: and she was saying, like, she's really struggling because she's 935 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,239 Speaker 3: quite a creative person and like likes to give a 936 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 3: personal experience to each child because, as you would know, 937 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,399 Speaker 3: lots of kids need more and some kids are quite 938 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 3: autonomous and like, you know, everything happens in a classroom 939 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 3: and she's in a public school, so it's quite hard. 940 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 3: But they're moving to a model where the principal was 941 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,879 Speaker 3: saying that you would be able to walk around all 942 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 3: of the grade three classrooms and at the same time, 943 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 3: every single day, every single teacher would be teaching exactly 944 00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 3: the same thing. 945 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, and she's like, I understand, And apparently that's becoming 946 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 4: the norm. 947 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 3: And lots of schools are structuring this because they're like, no, 948 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 3: the curriculum is this, and like it kind of makes 949 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 3: sense to have yes standardized and like you know, if 950 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 3: you step back and go, yep, it would make sense 951 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 3: that every single student gets allocated the opportunity to learn 952 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 3: absolutely everything, Like but then you go personalized experience, like, 953 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 3: there's just so much to it, and I can tell 954 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 3: that's frustrating her. So I like that. I'm going to 955 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,280 Speaker 3: talk more. I'm going to assume you've done your research. 956 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 3: I'm going to assume that you know you want to 957 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 3: be a teacher. I'm not going to question your decision. 958 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 4: There. 959 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 3: I wouldn't worry so much about the HEX. I'd worry 960 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 3: more about the work life balance because the hexs you 961 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 3: know what, that's not life ruining. That is money that 962 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 3: you're investing into your education. And I never think that's 963 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 3: a bad thing unless you're just going into a degree 964 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 3: and you haven't done your research and you're like, oh, 965 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 3: I wish I didn't do that arts degree that literally 966 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 3: got me nowhere cough victory. 967 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 4: Divine started there. That's why I transferred into psychology after 968 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 4: one year. 969 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 3: Anyway, I think it's really important that you're thinking about 970 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 3: work life balance. You've got three kids. How are you 971 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,280 Speaker 3: going to fit in study? Are you doing it full time? 972 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,320 Speaker 3: Have you talked to your partner? What does your budget 973 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 3: look like? If that's the case, could you do part 974 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 3: time study? I mean you could break it up. I 975 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 3: believe you have ten years to do a teaching degree, 976 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 3: so you could literally do it over ten years and 977 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 3: then once your kids are in high school then you 978 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 3: can go into that. And I mean, if this is 979 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 3: something you're wildly passionate about, maybe doing a unit here 980 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 3: and there, it doesn't feel like as much work as 981 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 3: you know it would if you were doing something that 982 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 3: you don't love. But I'm very much a believer in 983 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,919 Speaker 3: chasing your passion. I would hate for you to get 984 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 3: to sixty and be like, yeah, I really wish I 985 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:40,840 Speaker 3: had a different career. I really wish that I didn't 986 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 3: do these things. And I mean, yes, you've got to 987 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 3: provide for your kids, like let's work out your budget 988 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 3: and what that looks like and how that could work. 989 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 4: But I also just think. 990 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 3: That there are a lot more markers of success that 991 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 3: the research basically says that if you read to your 992 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 3: kids every single day, they will have a higher IQ 993 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 3: than anybody. 994 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 4: Who went through a private school. 995 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 3: I'd believe that if you give your kids, like one 996 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 3: of the markers of success of a happy child is 997 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 3: a happy mum. Like, I do so much research into 998 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 3: this space and I just look at it and go cool. 999 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 3: So you're saying that if I give Harvey a happy mum, 1000 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 3: he is more likely to be happy.

People would say 1025 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 3: things like it took my passion. They would say it's 1026 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 3: not what I expected. They would say, you're under like 1027 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 3: exactly what your friends are saying, undervalued, underappreciated, underfunded. A 1028 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 3: lot of teachers were saying that, you know, especially in 1029 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,719 Speaker 3: the public system, they are having to use their personal 1030 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 3: money to buy things like pens and texters and drawing 1031 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 3: utensils and things that haven't been provided for them in 1032 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 3: the classroom that due to their curriculum they still need. 1033 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 4: And I just that really broke my heart because I 1034 00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:01,760 Speaker 4: was like, what do you mean?
