Jess lives in Christmas Land, so she knows 416 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 2: that's not that bad.

Now, let's take a 446 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 2: listen to this week's money dilemma. 447 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 6: Hi, She's on the Money Team. I have a money 448 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 6: dilemma which I've thought a lot about. I'm twenty three 449 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 6: and up until now, i've only worked part time jobs 450 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 6: while studying, and my super is at twelve thousand dollars. 451 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 6: My question is I've just started a PhD which will 452 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 6: be for the next three and a half to four years, 453 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 6: and i was lucky to receive a scholarship, so I'm 454 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 6: not working part time anymore. However, this means my super 455 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 6: is not going to have anything added for a few years, 456 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 6: and I feel like I'm going to be behind should 457 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 6: I be contributing to my SUPER? I am also considering 458 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 6: that if I do, I can't claim any SUPER contributions 459 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 6: as a tax deduction, and I'm not eligible for the 460 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 6: government co contribution. I don't think so. I'm worried it's 461 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 6: not the best use for my money on a low 462 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 6: income or am I potentially better off investing outside of Super, 463 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 6: which I am planning to do anyway. Thanks for your opinions. 464 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 2: Oh that was really sweet. Also, congrats on getting into 465 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: a PhD. 466 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 4: That is so cool. 467 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 2: One day you'll be like, yes, I'm a doctor. No, 468 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 2: I can't help you with your medical emergency on this flight, 469 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 2: but how cool is that? What would you do, Jess? 470 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,719 Speaker 5: I think I personally would probably be investing outside of 471 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 5: SUPER because she can't take it. Sounds like she can't 472 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 5: take advantage of the traditional benefits like the For me, 473 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 5: the reasons that you would add to SUPER instead of 474 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 5: outside of SUPER would be to take advantage of the 475 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 5: co contribution if you're a low income earner and you 476 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 5: fit within those brackets. 477 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 2: Or to get the tax douction. I don't know why 478 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: she can't get a tax species. A PhD stipend doesn't 479 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 2: pay tax on it, So you'll be paid to do 480 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 2: your PhD by the government, but you don't have to 481 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 2: pay TI on that income. Interesting. Obviously she'll do a 482 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 2: tax return and basically have like quote no taxable income. Therefore, 483 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 2: if she made a contribution to superannuation, what's she claiming 484 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 2: it against? Yeah, that could change if she decided, because 485 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 2: a lot of people doing PhDs it's really financially challenging. 486 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 2: They might be on like thirty thousand dollars a year 487 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 2: and that's honestly so impressive that they get through that. 488 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 2: But I know a lot of people who do PhDs 489 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 2: have like part time jobs or side hustle waitresses. Yeah, 490 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 2: so if you're doing like a side hustle or a 491 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 2: waitressing job, at that point, you might go, Okay, well, 492 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 2: I do have a taxable income I could claim it against. 493 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 2: Might change the advice, or might change you know, what 494 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 2: you want to do. But at the moment, if you're 495 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 2: only going to be doing your PhD at that point, 496 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,239 Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like we put so much 497 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 2: pressure on ourselves. I'm going to let you finish. But 498 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 2: I just have a lot to say about this. 499 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I just I feel like the big thing is 500 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 5: that Super is effectively, at the end of the day, 501 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 5: an investment, and so if you really wanted to, you 502 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 5: could replicate what your SUPER is investing in just in 503 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 5: your own portfolio. 504 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that's the right choice, to be clear, 505 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: but like. 506 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 5: Do you mean like you could effectively do the same 507 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 5: thing even if you're not putting it into suitranuation. But 508 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 5: the added benefit of investing outside of Super is you 509 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 5: can access it whenever you want to. And also you 510 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 5: obviously can choose different things, like you can invest in 511 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 5: whatever you like, whatever you're passionate about, and the ETFs 512 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 5: and blah blah, and if you haven't listened to the 513 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 5: investing series go Back, we have so many investing episodes. 514 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 5: But I think I, personally, for those reasons, would opt 515 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 5: to invest outside of SUPER. 516 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 2: I think it's. 517 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 5: Really great that you're even thinking about this, and I 518 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 5: think if you can find the money to contribute regularly, 519 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 5: that will ensure that you're effectively keeping up and not 520 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 5: being put on the back foot too much. 521 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 4: I think, yeah, yeah, I'd probably do the same as 522 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 4: Jazz I mean, like, in an ideal world, I'd be 523 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 4: putting money aside for literally anything. But yeah, my friend 524 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 4: is doing a PhD in he's not getting sad much money, 525 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 4: So I'm like, I don't even know. I guess if 526 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 4: you are really really budget queen slash king, and you 527 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 4: are able to still have money at the end of 528 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 4: the day to put away, then yes, I agree. I 529 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 4: would actually probably also invest money outside of super and 530 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 4: then at the end of it, if that money still there, 531 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 4: if you want to put it in super, you can 532 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 4: do that. But yeah, I think having the access to 533 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 4: that money just in case. 534 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: That's a great point, like if something goes wrong or 535 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 2: if money. 536 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 4: Gets really tight exactly because it's yeah, it's it's it's 537 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 4: tough out there on a it's really really cool that 538 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 4: you have this. It's really cool the government does that. 539 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 4: But yeah, it's not it's. 540 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,479 Speaker 2: Not a lot of probably not liverabol maybe. Yeah, So 541 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 2: I would probably go back even further and talk about 542 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 2: what are your savings looking like, do you have an 543 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 2: emergency fund? If you have any free cash flow and 544 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 2: your on a low income and you know that you 545 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 2: know an electrical bill could pop up, you're already going 546 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 2: through a PhD like that is so stressful, like the 547 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 2: amount of work and time an energy that you're going 548 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 2: to put into this, like make sure you have an 549 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 2: emergency fund before we worry about our super And I 550 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 2: know that that feels really backwards because you guys go, oh, 551 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 2: but you care so much about it. I do. But 552 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: I also think we put so much pressure on ourselves 553 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 2: to be investing always, even when it doesn't make sense. 554 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 2: Like if you were on three hundred thousand dollars, I'd 555 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 2: be like, why aren't you contributing to super? Why aren't 556 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 2: you investing? But if you're on thirty grand, like we're 557 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 2: doing the best that we can, you can't say, oh 558 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 2: my gosh, well you know you should be just investing 559 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 2: ten percent of your income always, Like it just doesn't 560 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 2: work that way, like percentage based budgeting. It just to 561 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 2: me doesn't work anyway. I think if I was in 562 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 2: their position, I'd be doing my budget. I'd be trying 563 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 2: to put some cash away into an emergency fund while 564 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 2: still being acutely aware of my SUPER. And then maybe 565 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 2: in the future, because you are still young, I would 566 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 2: go all right, well, when I finally get my you know, 567 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 2: first job, outside of my PhD, where I haven't been 568 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 2: able to invest in. You know, I've actually invested time 569 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 2: into my education and time into my future career. I'm 570 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: going to then maybe make some additional contributions to make 571 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 2: up for the time that I was doing my PhD, 572 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: so you don't have to put the pressure on yourself 573 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 2: during this period of time. I think it's a bit 574 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 2: risky if you were going to invest outside of superannuation 575 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 2: with the background I guess knowledge that you might need 576 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 2: that money, like, because I don't want you to ever 577 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 2: have to sell down an investment and potentially lose money 578 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,239 Speaker 2: because you need to pay an electrical bill, or you know, 579 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 2: you didn't have money for groceries, or you couldn't do 580 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 2: weight trassing shifts because everything was too tough. I think 581 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 2: that we should really be focusing just on cash flow 582 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,479 Speaker 2: and on savings and not so much on investing. I mean, 583 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 2: if you find that free cash flow, get it, queen. 584 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 2: But if that's not possible, I think we also need 585 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 2: to take the pressure off ourselves and go we don't 586 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 2: have to do everything all at once. See in fact, 587 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 2: it's literally impossible. But as time goes on, you will 588 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 2: become an investor, you will contribute more to superannuation and 589 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 2: you will be financially secure because you're already thinking about 590 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 2: it totally. And if you've got a doctorate, is that 591 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 2: what it's called a doctorate? Yes, then we could assume 592 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 2: that maybe you were making some big doctorate, so hopefully 593 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 2: it kind of makes up. I love it, alright, I've 594 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 2: got oh, I've got to spicey one and I have 595 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 2: opinions and I'm going to hold my tongue until you've 596 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 2: had yours. Are you ready for the DM of the week? 597 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 4: Yes? 598 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 2: All right, Hey girls, love your pod. I was wondering 599 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 2: are you able to cover matched betting on the podcast? 600 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 2: My partner is telling me he's going to get into 601 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 2: it as a side hustle to earn more income. I 602 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: don't really understand how it works, and I'm worried it's 603 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 2: a scam or could result in bad gambling behaviors. He 604 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 2: said he's done a lot of research into it and 605 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 2: returns way more than the Australian shere market, which I 606 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 2: find hard to believe. Do you know if this is 607 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 2: a legitimate side hustle and is it safe? Thanks in advance? 608 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 4: Well, I gotta tell you I was doing this for 609 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:12,479 Speaker 4: a little while. I do want to say, like, I know, 610 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 4: I'm not absolutely not condoning gambling, but the time and 611 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 4: energy and like intelligence you need. I didn't do this myself. 612 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 4: A friend of mine showed me how to do it 613 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 4: and told me explain it all to me. I stoldn't 614 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 4: absorb it, but somehow I kept making money. Anyway. I 615 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 4: know that it takes someone extremely smart to figure out 616 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 4: all the odds and how to just like either break 617 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,719 Speaker 4: even or make money. And it's like the way I 618 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 4: was doing it with my friend, I don't think it's allowed. 619 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 4: Like we all got banned from all the platforms eventually, Wow, 620 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 4: who saw that? I don't think it's a loud but 621 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 4: I could maybe I listened talking about something else. But 622 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 4: what I took from that is like, oh, yeah, I 623 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 4: have done this. Yes I did make money and then 624 00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 4: I was banned, But I would probably not condone it 625 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 4: simply because nothing's guaranteed. And if it was like if 626 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 4: anyone could do that, if anyone could just figure out 627 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 4: how to bet match, then like well all these gambling 628 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 4: companies would just be out of pocket constantly. So I'm 629 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 4: not to say that the listener's partner is not able 630 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 4: to do that. 631 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 2: But it's just risky. It's just risky. 632 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 5: Jess what do you reckon? I cannot say this clearly enough. 633 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 5: Gambling is not a side hustle, like. 634 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 2: Not say it clear o, babe, gambling. 635 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 5: I say this with love and I know that obviously 636 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 5: this is the way that your partner has maybe pitched 637 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 5: it to you, which I totally get, But it just 638 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 5: is simply not a side hustle. 639 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 2: Gambling is gambling. 640 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 5: It is a high risk and I'll be honest, I 641 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 5: don't know too much about match betting and how it works. 642 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 2: VD. 643 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 5: I feel like you're going to have a little bit 644 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 5: more inside. But the biggest thing for me is I 645 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 5: think that any from what I understand, it operates using 646 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 5: ma be like the free bets that they offer or 647 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 5: you know, get your money back if you whatever split 648 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 5: you know how they do those things? Yes, that is marketing. 649 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 5: And the reason that they these gambling companies are marketing 650 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 5: to you is because they are relying on the fact 651 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 5: that you'll get in, maybe win a little bit of money, 652 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 5: get excited and start gambling more broadly, and they're going 653 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 5: to get their money back. 654 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 2: Like there's a. 655 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 5: Reason that they offer you these freebies, and it's not 656 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 5: out of the goodness of their heart. It's because they 657 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 5: are trying to effectively get you addicted to gambling. 658 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 2: Basically true. That can I say that? Is that? Yeah? Absolutely, 659 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 2: you can say that because, like the truth sometimes isn't comfortable. Yeah, sotly. 660 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 5: I just think that, you know, if you want to 661 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 5: gamble with your money, that is your own prerogative. But 662 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 5: I really really really need you to look at it 663 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 5: through the lens of this is a high risk gambling activity. 664 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 2: It is not a side hustle. Yeah, yeah, okay, can 665 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 2: I have a turn? Please? Please? So why wouldn't victor 666 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 2: where I agree with it? Because it's illegal is probably 667 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 2: the first issue. Because it's illegal. Well, actually no, While 668 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 2: match betting itself isn't illegal, the tactics that are required 669 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 2: for you to be successful, like creating multiple accounts under 670 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 2: fake names, they actually cross the line into I would 671 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 2: say fraud territory, putting you at serious risk. There's a 672 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 2: reason that you shouldn't be doing it. It's also against 673 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 2: the terms and conditions of every single betting company worldwide. 674 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: Match betting is not okay. What is match betting. I 675 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 2: hear a lot of people asking, so it's essentially using 676 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 2: online gambling slash betting websites, you know how they often say, 677 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 2: we'll give you ten dollars to sign up and bet 678 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 2: for free. Yeah, so it's essentially using the betting website's 679 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 2: free bet offer to make money. So, for example, you're 680 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 2: going to use their free ten dollars as a welcome 681 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 2: to the betting company, and you're gonna bet on an 682 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 2: AFL game, right, You're going to bet on a footy 683 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 2: game and you're going to bet that you know, the 684 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 2: Brisbane lines win. Right. Then on a different betting website, 685 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 2: you're going to bet another ten dollars of your own 686 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 2: money that the Brisbane lines loose. 687 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 5: Oh. 688 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 2: So the software then works out the most evenly matched 689 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 2: odds and potentially you're going to make up to another 690 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 2: ten dollars of profit. So you keep doing that, rins 691 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 2: and repeat. You're using free money to make money, and honestly, 692 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 2: a lot of people say it's easy. I don't think 693 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 2: it is because there's a lot of complexity. There's a 694 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 2: lot of risk doing it because obviously if somebody else 695 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 2: gets involved or they're betting genuinely like that's going to 696 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 2: mix up your odds, Like it's actually it's so bad, 697 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 2: but yes, it is against the terms and conditions, which 698 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 2: beck is why you got banned from the comments because 699 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 2: they didn't like it. They also use a lot of 700 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 2: spyware software because it is legal and it impacts their 701 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 2: business negatively, Like a betting website is going to share 702 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,479 Speaker 2: that with other betting websites, so you've probably been banned 703 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 2: from a lot of them because they're like, this user 704 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 2: surely does this. Where does the illegal component come in? 705 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 5: Though? 706 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 2: Because like the government doesn't care if you sign up 707 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 2: a new someone's free ten bucks to gamble, right, it 708 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 2: actually relies on you opening a heap of different accounts 709 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 2: so that you can bet against yourself. And you can't 710 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 2: have multiple accounts in your own name because the betting 711 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 2: companies don't let you. They only let you have one. 712 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 2: You are committing fraud. You are committing fraud by opening 713 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 2: multiple platforms, and I feel like that's probably not something 714 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 2: that we want to do. So in order to be successful, 715 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 2: you're going to need multiple accounts. 716 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, Like, so you're gonna I'm I'm Jessica and tomorrow 717 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 5: I'm Pessica. Yeah, like just making a heap of different 718 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 5: differently exactly. 719 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 2: So obviously there's that risk. There's the risk of obviously 720 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 2: making an error and losing mon. There's the risk of 721 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 2: you being fined. There's the risk of you know, obviously, 722 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 2: it's just not coming out in the wash. I feel 723 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 2: like lots of people in this space, they're like, it's 724 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 2: so good, like please don't get me wrong, Like at 725 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 2: the end of the day, it's just it's not a 726 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,280 Speaker 2: good idea. But a few people replied to our stories 727 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 2: to be completely transparent, said I made one thousand dollars 728 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 2: from this during lockdown. I made a couple of grand 729 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 2: from this. You know, each to their own. But it 730 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 2: is not ethical. It is not legal betting and gambling 731 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 2: is not a side hustle. It's not something I would 732 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 2: ever recommend. But I mean, I feel like it's missi 733 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 2: of me not to share that. Yes, it has quote 734 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,439 Speaker 2: worked for some people. They're now banned from those platforms though, 735 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 2: Like a lot of the people I reply, I'll entertain 736 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 2: the conversation like no shame, Like you can tell me 737 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 2: anything and I'm not going to judge you, but I'll 738 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 2: be like, Okay, tell me about that like, how did 739 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 2: that work? What did that look like? And they're like, yeah, yeah, 740 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: I did it until I got banned from the account 741 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 2: and then I tried to make other accounts and like 742 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 2: I'm banned from literally every platform, and I'm like not surprised, 743 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 2: sorry about that. I think it's also a slippery slope 744 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 2: completely like such as you were saying, just such a 745 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 2: slippery slope. Like estimates. I've done some research as well, 746 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 2: because I knew this question was coming, But estimates suggest 747 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: that Australians lose approximately twenty five billion dollars on legal 748 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 2: forms of gambling each year legal forms, and we all 749 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 2: know that there are lots of illegal ones and that 750 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 2: represents the largest per capital loss in the world. Whoa 751 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 2: they We're a big gambling we are a massive gambling nation, 752 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 2: like and that's fine, each to their own. I feel 753 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 2: like Australians love a punt. That is definitely a part 754 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 2: of our culture. But I think it's really important to 755 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,959 Speaker 2: realize that this is not a side hustle. I don't care. 756 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 2: It feels like multi level marketing. It feels like obviously, 757 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 2: if someone's doing it, they want you to do it, 758 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 2: they want you to join in you can make some 759 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,879 Speaker 2: money back. And that's exactly what happened. I'm not saying 760 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 2: that your friend's a bad person, but your friend definitely 761 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 2: wasn't doing the right thing. But then was also like, oh, 762 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 2: but it made me money. You could do the same thing, 763 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 2: beck And like, the second you learn something about how 764 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,720 Speaker 2: to make some extra cash, I'm to share with my friends. 765 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 2: I literally have a podcast. I am obsessed with sharing 766 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 2: how you can make some extra money. But this, my friend, 767 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 2: isn't it. I think then, also it's important to recognize 768 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 2: that people in our community, so younger people aged between 769 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 2: the ages of eighteen to thirty are usually twice as 770 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 2: likely to be problem gamblers than those who are older. 771 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 2: We are a lot more about instant gratification. So that 772 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 2: makes a lot of sense. And I guess when it 773 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 2: comes to would you say, like the psychological impact or 774 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 2: the psychological harm, There's some research that says that forty 775 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 2: to sixty percent of problem gamblers in treatment samples experience 776 00:36:52,280 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 2: clinical depression, display suicidal ideation, or have significant levels of anxiety. Yeah, 777 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 2: like you might not when you go into it, but 778 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 2: like it's going to put you on a very negative 779 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 2: mental pathway. Other people in that same study reported that 780 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 2: they put off activities or they neglected their families because 781 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 2: of gambling, and most report that they had lied to 782 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 2: family members or engaged in furaitive activities, so that they 783 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 2: were basically concealing the extent of their gambling or whatever 784 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 2: losses they had incurred. Now, I obviously went online because 785 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 2: I just I feel like this is something I'm wildly 786 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 2: passionate about, and there seems to be a lack of 787 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 2: financial literacy around this. And I got a few quotes 788 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 2: from people who had been betmatching, and I think that 789 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 2: I want to share them. So one person said, I 790 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 2: got into match betting a year ago and now I 791 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 2: have a minor slot's habit. Someone else said, if you 792 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 2: calculate something wrong, it can sting. And you also end 793 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 2: up watching sports, so that can kind of trade out 794 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 2: positions and lock in profit times, So watching as a 795 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 2: fan kind of tails off. It doesn't become enjoyable anymore. 796 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 2: Plus sometimes you really really cheer for a horse to lose. 797 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 2: That's not actually very nice. Oh, and it's really time consuming. 798 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 2: You want to be making actual money, not just ten 799 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 2: bucks here and there, so you need to be prepared 800 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 2: to put in a lot of work. It's not worth it. Yeah, 801 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 2: someone else said. One thing I dislike about match betting 802 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 2: is people saying it's risk free. Bets can be canceled, 803 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 2: you can make mistakes, for example, if you're laying long odds, 804 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 2: then the liability can be massive. There's just so much 805 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 2: to this. I mean, I obviously am very passionate about 806 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 2: financial literacy and people being in the best possible position, 807 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 2: but I feel like gambling is a massive issue, and 808 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 2: gambling related. I guess harm doesn't just affect the person 809 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 2: doing the gambling, but also their families, their peers, their work, 810 00:38:55,560 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 2: their career, lost productivity. Like, there's so many negative impacts. 811 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 2: But Jess, you said it loud and clear, gambling is 812 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 2: not a side hustle, full stop. End of story. I 813 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 2: don't know how much clearer I can be, and I 814 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 2: don't particularly feel as though this is a situation where 815 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 2: I have to be really kind. Your boyfriend shouldn't be 816 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 2: doing this, Yeah, end of story. You can share this 817 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 2: episode with him, But I also recommend, and we'll put 818 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 2: in the show notes a link to Gambler's help. I 819 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 2: would give them a buzz and just have a chat 820 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 2: and look, look some stuff up online. See what it's like. 821 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:31,720 Speaker 2: It's it's not a good idea. 822 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's an industry that prays on and relies on 823 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 5: you losing. Like how they're up twenty five billion dollars 824 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 5: across Australia.
