Though we're back. 28 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: I feel like this episode is going to be a 29 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 2: bit of a wild one. Couple of reasons, George. One, 30 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: Jess isn't here to keep us on track and make 31 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: sure that we do the right thing, because she's the 32 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 2: one that's always like Victoria, stop saying that, or Georgia, 33 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: get on with it, like she's not here to keep 34 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: us in line.

It's going to be an absolute corker. No, 41 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 3: do tell me what went on on. Let's start with Monday. 42 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: It makes sense what happened on Money Diaries this week? 43 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 3: All right? 44 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 2: So on Monday we smoke to an absolutely gorgeous Money 45 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 2: diarist who actually has been in our DMS for a 46 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 2: very long time, Like I have seen her name come 47 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: up a million times. She has a company called Dispense. 48 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 2: They make like those hand sanitizer like automated container things, yep, 49 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: and I bought some and I adore them. She's probably 50 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: not going to be happy that I put fake tan 51 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: in one and now it like self phoned my fake tan. 52 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 2: But I think I'm a genius and like genuinely, like 53 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 2: the second it started self foaming, I was like, I 54 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: know what I can use this for, because now I 55 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 2: don't have to like pick up the bottle of fake 56 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 2: tan and like pump it onto my meat. I just 57 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 2: put my little mit under its mit dispenser and it goes. 58 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: That is anyway, that's not what her product is for. 59 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 2: You can put sanitizer or hand wash in it, or 60 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 2: if you're Victoria, you will just put your fake tan 61 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: in it and yolow. But her story was epic. She 62 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 2: talked about her parents who came to Australia as immigrants 63 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 2: and started from absolute scratch, and she's worked her way 64 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 2: through life as well. And George, she recently, as in 65 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 2: twelve months ago, found herself in the position where her 66 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: boss said, you've been doing a great job, here's pay rice, 67 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 2: here's a promotion, and the next week got made redundant. 68 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 2: What a roller coaster. Anyway, she has gone from being 69 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: in that situation to being made redundant and having no 70 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: idea what was going on, to creating her own small 71 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: business dispense and now she told us she's made more 72 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: than seventy five thousand dollars in that company already, So 73 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: clearly she's doing really well. 74 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: She's obviously a very clever cookiev because you know, we're 75 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 3: in the middle of a pandemic. 76 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 4: What do we need. 77 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 3: We need sanitizer holders, and we need fake ten dispensers. 78 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 2: Okay, so it's not a fake ten dispair And I'm 79 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 2: semi regretting saying that, although this could be revolutionary for 80 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: her product, I'm gonna pitch it to her. Ye genuinely, 81 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: I'm not here to sell it to you, George, because 82 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: it's not sponsored, and it wasn't sponsored, And the product 83 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: I got I literally bought with my own money purely 84 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: because I wanted her product. They're real sleek, like they 85 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 2: look really sleek on your bench. So I have one 86 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 2: beside the front door that actually has the hand sanitizer 87 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: that came with the product in it, and the other one, 88 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: which is meant to have a gorgeous French vanilla and 89 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 2: paar hand wash in it, that's full of faint hand gotcha, gotcha, 90 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 2: You're welcome. Don't mix them up because that could be 91 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: an awkward, sanitizing situation. 92 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 4: I love that. I can't wait to listen. Tell me 93 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,559 Speaker 4: about Wednesday's show. 94 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: Oh, Wednesday's show, George.

But 98 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 2: that's how we're gonna describe Wednesday's episode, not cause the 99 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 2: content was that, George, but because Miss Jessica Ricci and 100 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 2: I we sat down to record that episode, and I 101 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: was so excited about it because this year we've decided 102 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: to focus more on investment and really taking She's on 103 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 2: the Money to the next level, and you know, having 104 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: these deep dive discussions that just make sense about shares 105 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: and ETFs and investing and different platforms and different strategies 106 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 2: and what it means.

We 151 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: love you, Sam, thank you so much for that. But 152 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 2: that episode did end up happening. We did talk about 153 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 2: the top five performing ATFS. I did it for the 154 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 2: second time, Sam did it for the first time, and 155 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 2: I reckon I got a good enough amount of practice 156 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: for it to be a really good episode exactly. 157 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 3: And you said that that was a really popular episode, right, 158 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 3: People were really wanting to hear about that, Like. 159 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 2: You guys have been craving more investment topics and already 160 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: I've had so many d so people being like, oh 161 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: my gosh, more content like this. I really liked understanding 162 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: why things perform the way that they do, because in 163 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 2: that episode, we didn't just talk about like, hey, George, 164 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: this ETF was number one and you go cool, b 165 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: We really talked about the intricacies of the market and 166 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 2: what it means for it to perform and maybe why 167 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 2: that ETF performed in the way that it did. Because George, 168 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 2: a couple of the ETFs on the list kind of 169 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 2: made sense when you started to talk about the state 170 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 2: of the world. Right, So one of them was a 171 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 2: crude oil Index, which is kind of like fuel and 172 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 2: we know that that's quite popular at the moment. Countries 173 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 2: are really snapping that up to maintain safety and so 174 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 2: that they can still be productive and all of that. 175 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 2: A global cybersecurity one was on there, and there was 176 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 2: a global tech one as well, and you go, okay, cool, 177 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 2: like that makes sense. So it was very fun to 178 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 2: talk through what that was and why they performed. But 179 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 2: also on the flip side of that, you might be thinking, 180 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, like I might pick shares based on 181 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 2: what the top performing ones were. Like A really good 182 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 2: point that Sam brought up was like, I've edited your 183 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 2: content for a long time. I know you pretty well. 184 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 2: I don't think you would pick these ATF And I 185 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 2: was like, no, it's definitely against my ethics and my 186 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 2: values and what I actually want from an ETF and 187 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 2: from an investment. So it's interesting to see that even 188 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 2: though they perform well, I definitely wouldn't have picked it 189 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: and still won't pick it into the future. So it 190 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: was just a good conversation about values and goals and 191 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 2: what these ETFs want to do and how they diversified 192 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: because I think as well, obviously go listen to the episode, 193 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 2: really passionate about this. But an ETF, I think has 194 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,599 Speaker 2: this common misconception in our community that any ETF is 195 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 2: automatically diversified, and that is true, but it's not diversified 196 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 2: across the entire market. It might be diversified across a 197 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 2: particular sector, so for example, that crude oil ETF only 198 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 2: buys crude oil companies, so it might be diversified across 199 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: that small sector, but when it comes to the bigger marketplace, 200 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: it's not like a Nasdaq Top one hundred ETF where 201 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 2: they have just the top one hundred companies. So it 202 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: was honestly really interesting episode. And I was telling you earlier, George, 203 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 2: that we're going to do another one very soon on 204 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: the top five performing individual shares, because that's also a 205 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 2: very interesting conversation to have. But yes, if you guys 206 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: have any specific investment topics you want us to cover, 207 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 2: slide on into our DMS. My friends, let us know. 208 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: Oh that's so exciting. I'm so excited for the community 209 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: and for us. I guess that we're now at this 210 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 3: place where we're not just explaining what things are, but 211 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 3: we're reflecting on what they actually are. Like on a 212 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 3: global scale. Does that make sense? Like it's We've come 213 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 3: so far. 214 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh my gosh, George, I cannot tell you. I 215 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: remember when we made the first twelve episodes of She's 216 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: on the Money, Like that She's on the Money podcast 217 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 2: was only meant to be twelve episodes. We nearly had 218 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty, George, Like, never in my wildest 219 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,679 Speaker 2: dreams did I think that I get to sit here 220 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: and talk about investment all day and do research for 221 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 2: these episodes and have really wholesome conversations about our and 222 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: our goals and our values. Like I am still shook 223 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 2: that this is my career, George, Like, I love it. 224 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 2: I'm so excited. Anyway, She's blessed, She's blessed. 225 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 4: Let's be great. Yeah. 226 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: My favorite thing, though, is the community. As you know, George, 227 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 2: So let's recap. We obviously had the money win thread 228 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 2: and it's been a while since you've shouted out your 229 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 2: favorite money wins from the community. So, George, what have 230 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: you got for us this week? 231 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 4: Okay? 232 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 3: I have some absolute belters as always. My first win 233 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 3: is from the lovely bree so Shybrey, young nineteen year 234 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 3: old student who was a shopaholic last year when we 235 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 3: all she spent in excess of fourteen thousand dollars shopping, 236 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 3: nights out and takeaway food. So a little bit of 237 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 3: money loss in twenty twenty one. 238 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 2: That's a lot of money. 239 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 3: But we've all been there, George, we have all been there. 240 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 3: But the good news is she started out this year 241 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: by working out a budget for each month, explaining exactly 242 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 3: how much she's allowed to spend on what she needs 243 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 3: and what she wants. This week she paid her rent 244 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 3: and groceries, and beyond that she did not spend a dime, 245 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: and then she chacked everyone in the community for all 246 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 3: the supports. 247 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 4: So amazing. 248 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: I love that, and I love that you guys all 249 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 2: support each other to achieve a goal, and that not 250 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 2: only do you support it until it's achieved, we then 251 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 2: like get to celebrate together.

Let's move on V to 270 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 3: a couple of insurancy wins sexy I know. The first 271 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 3: one is from Jess, so she had to pay her 272 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 3: car insurance. She was quoted nearly seven hundred dollars for 273 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 3: renewal of her current third party insurance. Then she did 274 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 3: a quote online with Amy and it was five seventy 275 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: so that's pretty okay. But then and to her friend 276 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 3: who somehow got involved and redid the quote, got a 277 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 3: special deal. Not sure how she got it down to 278 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 3: two hundred and twenty dollars. Sorry, what, Yeah, what's being 279 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 3: insured here? But it's impressive. 280 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: We hope that it's got the same level of insurance. Obviously, 281 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 2: when we read these sometimes you're like, we don't comprehend, 282 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 2: Like we're happy for you, but like, hopefully you're still protected. 283 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 3: There's more to this story though. Her work gave her 284 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 3: an eighty dollar voucher, which she she put towards her 285 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 3: insurance as well, so in the end she paid one 286 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: hundred and forty five dollary dues instead of seven hundred. Hello, gorgeous, that. 287 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 2: Is a very big money win. I appreciate that massively. 288 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: Thank you so good, Well done, Jess. The next one 289 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 3: is from ash So she changed her address on her 290 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: car insurance policy to her new address and received a 291 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 3: refund of two hundred and ninety four dollars. 292 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 4: What Yeah, who would. 293 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 2: Have thought you would get a refund? Like I thought 294 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 2: they'd just snamp up the money and not mention it. 295 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 2: You'd be like, thanks for updating my dates. I didn't 296 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 2: think that was a thing. 297 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 3: Why is that a thing? V just because some areas 298 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 3: amabe a safer. 299 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it would be a thing because you know, regional 300 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 2: versus metro, or some areas are categorized as more likely 301 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 2: to have crime or more likely to have on street 302 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 2: bingals like, it's all based on risk. 303 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, gotcha makes sense.

Like 341 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: everyone said that when I quit smoking, I'll save so 342 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: much money, but I'm not seeing it. Like, we need 343 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 2: to be more active about this. So if you were 344 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: spending fifty bucks a week or one hundred dollars a week, 345 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 2: start putting that money in a savings account so that 346 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 2: if you're ever attempted to go back to the habit, 347 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 2: you look at it and go, no, I'm so happy 348 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: that I have those savings, Like, please do it. Because 349 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 2: I've heard a few people in our community saying Oh 350 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 2: I thought i'd save heaps if I was not smoking anymore, 351 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 2: And the reality is, yes, you will. But we need 352 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 2: to be more active about our savings. It doesn't just happen. 353 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 2: The money doesn't just end up magically in our account saved. 354 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 2: We as humans will always find another way to allocate it. 355 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 2: So we have to be very specific about where things 356 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 2: go and how they're structured and what we are doing 357 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 2: with our money. One hundred percent back to wins Now, 358 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 2: I'll stop ranting. 359 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 3: H I loved that our final win V is from Lucy. 360 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 3: So she asked her boss for a pay rise this 361 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 3: week and he gave her a twenty five percent raise 362 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 3: without any hesitation. What this means, now ve is that 363 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 3: she's doubled her salary from the job she was made 364 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 3: redundant from in May twenty twenty. Turns out COVID business 365 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 3: closures can't have a silver lining in the long run. 366 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: She wrote, Oh I love that, but also we're going 367 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: to use Lucy's money when as a reminder, New Year, 368 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 2: New salary. If you've been thinking about talking to your 369 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 2: boss about salary, what are you waiting for? Lucy's boss 370 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 2: gave her a twenty five percent increase without question. If 371 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 2: you've been thinking about asking, now's the time to shine. 372 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 2: My friends, v Let's set up a meeting after this, right, 373 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 2: will have a chat. I wish I said not no, no, 374 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 2: no no, But there's actually, George, as you would know, 375 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 2: an entire podcast about negotiating your salary. So go back 376 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 2: and listen to that, because now is a very good 377 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 2: time to be having conversations about salary. New Year, New us. 378 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 2: You deserve it, all right, let's get back into it, Georgia, 379 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 2: can we hear this week's listener question? 380 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 5: Hey, team and Maddie here. I'm twenty three years old 381 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 5: and I just got a new job at a big 382 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 5: company that I'm really excited about. The only issue is 383 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 5: that I've just found out I'm going to be paid 384 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 5: once a month, which is really starting to stress me out, 385 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 5: and I feel like it's a money loss. Do you 386 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 5: have any tips for managing only being paid once a month? 387 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 2: Gee, I feel like this is a really relatable one. 388 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 2: At some point in our lives, we've all gone through 389 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 2: a change in employment that's meant a change in the 390 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 2: way that we get paid, or like maybe even a 391 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 2: bump in the road. It might go from weekly to fortnightly, 392 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 2: but monthly is a big one. Have you ever gone 393 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 2: through a change that big? 394 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have my first full time job. I was 395 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 3: paid monthly, which it was different, I guess because it 396 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 3: was my first full time job, so I was earning 397 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 3: more than my casual job. But I was used to 398 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 3: having that weekly top up, so it was a huge adjustment. 399 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 3: So I definitely understand the stress of this question. But 400 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 3: it's definitely not a money loss like you were going 401 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 3: to be just fine with the help of Victoria. 402 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not a money lost by any stretch of 403 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 2: the imagination. It actually just requires a little bit more planning. 404 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 2: And I say a little bit more planning because obviously, 405 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 2: let's pretend George, it's the same amount of money and 406 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 2: we're not talking about you know, pay rises or pay decreases. 407 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 2: We're actually just talking about frequency here. But when it 408 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 2: comes to frequency, if we get a big lump sum 409 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 2: at the start of the month, mindset often comes into it. 410 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 2: So you're very likely to go, oh my god, no, 411 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 2: I've got heaps of money. It's so fine, Like I 412 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 2: can go out for an extra apparol with you, George, 413 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 2: don't worry or no, no, no, babe, I've got the 414 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 2: pizza this time. You got it last time. Even if 415 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 2: you're not sure who paid, you end up just dipping 416 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 2: into your money a bit more than you had actually 417 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 2: planned to. So maybe the last week of your pay 418 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 2: cycle is super tight and you end up feeling really uncomfortable. 419 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 2: So this is where having a really good budget and 420 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 2: cash flow system in place is going to be essential, 421 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 2: because then it won't matter because you are in a 422 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,479 Speaker 2: situation where you know what your expenses are, and you 423 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 2: know what you're spending on your food, your fuel, and 424 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,239 Speaker 2: your fun each and every single month, so that you 425 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 2: can allocate that to your personal spending each week. And 426 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,479 Speaker 2: this is how I do my own personal spending. This 427 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 2: is how our budget and casually master class is set up. 428 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 2: Albeit I don't think this person came in for me 429 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,159 Speaker 2: to go do my course, but at the end of 430 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 2: the day, genuinely, my online master class would be of 431 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 2: value here and you're not am going to do George. 432 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,239 Speaker 2: We're going to send her the master class so that 433 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: she can do it because at the end of the day, 434 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 2: she's in a situation where that would be really valuable. 435 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 2: And having a system that is made for you is 436 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 2: going to make it so much easier. So it's about 437 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 2: sitting down and going, right, what is my budget, what 438 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 2: am I spending? How much am I spending? Being really 439 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 2: really stick with that. When we say budget at cheese 440 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 2: on the money, we're not saying please restrict yourself, like 441 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: set a budget for groceries, Like we're not saying that. 442 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 2: I'm saying to you, Georgia, how much do you spend 443 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 2: on groceries each week? And you might go, oh, like 444 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 2: maybe fifty bucks, and I'll go, are you sure? 445 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 5: You go? 446 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 2: Oh, let me go through my bank balance, and then 447 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 2: it's like eighty dollars. If we set our budget at 448 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 2: fifty we're going to shoot ourselves in the foot each 449 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 2: and every single week because that's not truly what you're spending. 450 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 2: So it's not a place where we're trying to restrict. 451 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: It's a place where we're trying to understand so that 452 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 2: you can go, oh, well, I spend eighty bucks a week, 453 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 2: and you might go, that's pretty fair. I don't want 454 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 2: to change that. But if you're super aware of your 455 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 2: spending habbits, you might go, but do you know what 456 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,239 Speaker 2: I actually really need to really in the amount of 457 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 2: takeaway coffees that I have, I definitely don't need to 458 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 2: a day. I can't believe how much they add up. 459 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 2: That's adding xyz to my budget each and every single week, 460 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: and it's not in line with my values. Like, I 461 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 2: just don't want to do that because I'm actually trying 462 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 2: to save for a house or you know what. I'm 463 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 2: trying to save so that I have a little bit 464 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 2: more money in my budget each week, so that i 465 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 2: can actually go out on a Friday night and have 466 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 2: a drink and go out for dinner with my girlfriends. 467 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 2: And I'm not spending any more than I would have before. 468 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 2: I've just reallocated my budget to be more in line 469 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 2: with the way I want to live my life. That 470 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 2: is what we're talking about when we say budgeting. It 471 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 2: is about you living in line with your values, not 472 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 2: living in line with what you think people expect of you. 473 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: So if you can do that, and then you can 474 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 2: set up your bank account system and Georgia, we've posted 475 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 2: in the group before how many bank accounts I think 476 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,719 Speaker 2: you guys need. The magic number is six from my perspective. 477 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,360 Speaker 2: But if you can set all your bank accounts up, 478 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 2: you won't have an issue where at the end of 479 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 2: the month you feel stuck because each and every single 480 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 2: week you have the same amount of money that you 481 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 2: can spend. And we're on a bit of a structure, 482 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 2: and it makes sense so that we're achieving our savings goals, 483 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 2: we are achieving our debt repayments if we've got any. 484 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 2: We are putting money away for the things that are 485 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 2: going to come up in the future, like registration because 486 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 2: they usually come at the same time as insurance and 487 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 2: for me, at the same time as Christmas, which is 488 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 2: so rude and I don't appreciate it. But at the 489 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 2: end of the day, get on top of your budget, 490 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 2: understand it. Create a cash flow system that works for you. 491 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 3: Two quick questions before we move on V I remember 492 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 3: when I was getting paid once a month, it didn't 493 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 3: take a toll in my emotions. But now that I 494 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 3: get paid fortnightly, it's like an exciting you get your 495 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 3: pay slim well, you get your money, and it's like 496 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 3: exciting when you just get paid once a month. You 497 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 3: only get that feeling twelve times a year, Like is 498 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 3: that something that we can kind of do? We just 499 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 3: need to get our heads around that feeling. Not really 500 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 3: being meaningful. 501 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 2: Or yes, we actually need to create a budget and 502 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 2: cash flow system where that's just a part of it. 503 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 2: We don't want payday to be exciting because payday shouldn't 504 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 2: be exciting because it's just topping up a fund that 505 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 2: should be replenished, right Like it shouldn't be like, oh 506 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 2: my gosh, I've got so much more money to spend, 507 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 2: like it should be, oh my gosh, I'm so glad 508 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 2: that my pay came in because I've already allocated where 509 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 2: it's going to go and where it's going to live 510 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,959 Speaker 2: and where it's going to grow. So I think it's 511 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 2: very important to remember that mindset does come into this 512 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 2: a fair bit, and we need to think about why 513 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 2: we might be excited about payday. Are you excited about 514 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 2: payday because you're really short on cash each month and 515 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 2: that's the day that the pressure gets taken off a bit? 516 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 2: I get it. I totally get it. I have clients 517 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 2: that have been in this situation. That's why we want 518 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 2: a structure that makes sense. You're excited because you should 519 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 2: excited to get paid, like that's cool, But more often 520 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 2: than not, usually excitement around payday comes with a sense 521 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 2: of relief because you're not under financial pressure at that 522 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 2: point in time, because that money has come into your 523 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 2: account and you're like, Okay, cool, I can afford rent. 524 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 2: And I wasn't sure how that was going to happen 525 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 2: because I had no money left. Like, no one deserves 526 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 2: to feel like that, And that's why structuring yourself properly 527 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 2: so that you're in a position of empowerment is really important. 528 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, because you're not making less money. You're making literally 529 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 3: the same amount of money. It's just how you think 530 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 3: about it and how you strategize to make it work 531 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 3: for you. Last little question here, Vye. Why do companies 532 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 3: choose to pay once a month only? 533 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 2: Is it just a caros and a nightmare? 534 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 4: George? 535 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 2: Payroll as somebody who employs people, I'm sorry. At the 536 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 2: end of the day, it's literally based on what the 537 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 2: company does. If it's a big company, they might have 538 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 2: a payroll department and they're sorting everything out during the 539 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 2: month and they're getting it together, and monthly just works 540 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 2: for that company. Some companies pay weekly, some companies pay fortnightly. 541 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 2: To be honest, it's really personal preference. Sometimes they'll be flexible. 542 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 2: For example, if you work in a small business and 543 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 2: you're like, oh, I'm really bad at cash flow. We 544 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 2: really want to have a chat to my boss about 545 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 2: my pay cycles. They might be flexible in this, Like, 546 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 2: it's definitely worth a conversation if it's something that's really 547 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 2: important to you. However, it really just comes down to 548 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 2: the way that the business has been structured. To be honest, 549 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 2: I pay the way I pay because that's how the 550 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 2: bookkeeper I worked with when I first set up my 551 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 2: business worked and she just told me that's how it 552 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 2: was going to be. I didn't really have a discussion 553 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 2: about it. I didn't really have a conversation. It was 554 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,479 Speaker 2: just the way that she said would work the best 555 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 2: and be the clearest, and it just made sense. But 556 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 2: it's different for everybody, So I don't think there's a 557 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 2: right or a wrong. And if it's something that's really 558 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 2: grinding your gears, g talk to your boss about it. 559 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 4: Love that Phi. 560 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 3: Is it time to move on to a new little 561 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 3: segment that you created twenty minutes ago in our planning? Mate? 562 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 2: Oh yes, George, I'm very excited about this, and I 563 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 2: mean I've been thinking about it for a long time. 564 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 2: But we usually do on Friday drinks a little segment 565 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 2: where we talk about the news all the current events, 566 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 2: and I was like, George, financial news over Christmas was 567 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 2: pretty bland. I mean, we talked about Elizabeth Holmes, and 568 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 2: I do have a recommendation based on the last week's 569 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 2: show because I said that it was a really interesting 570 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 2: case to follow. I'm really interested to see what actually 571 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 2: eventuates and how it works. And a whole heap of 572 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 2: uselid into my and recommended the ABC podcast The Dropout G. 573 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 2: I finished season one, I'm halfway through season two. I'm obsessed. 574 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 2: I have been listening to it while I'm working. I 575 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 2: have been listening to it when I walk the dog 576 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 2: every morning. I have been listening to it laying in 577 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 2: bed like it's it's not healthy. Like I'm obsessed, but 578 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 2: it's such an interesting case. And that was definitely a 579 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 2: good pod recommendation from you guys. But to replace this 580 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 2: week's news segment, G, We're going to do book club. 581 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 2: We're creating a book club, but it's like a fake 582 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,120 Speaker 2: book club. It's not a real book club. What happens 583 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 2: is I read the book, and then I tell you 584 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 2: about the book, and then you guys get to pretend 585 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 2: you also read the book because I'm going to do 586 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 2: like the TLDR version, like the too long didn't read, 587 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 2: So you can get all of the knowledge out of 588 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 2: a finance book without having to read it, because some 589 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 2: of them are really dry. So I guess that's another 590 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 2: point we should make. It's going to be a finance book. 591 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 2: It's not just going to be any book. It's not 592 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 2: just going to be some rom com that Victoria's been 593 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 2: reading in a downtime, which I absolutely do, but we're 594 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 2: not going to talk about the topics that I read. 595 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 2: But it's going to be a finance book. And you 596 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 2: guys should be really excited. I mean, are you? 597 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 3: I mean I would love it more if they weren't finance. 598 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 3: I'm not going to lie to you, but this is 599 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 3: a finance podcast, and here we are. 600 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,640 Speaker 2: I mean, people could make really trashy recommendations, like if 601 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 2: they wanted to, like if you read a really good 602 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 2: rom com novel recently. 603 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 3: Please, I'm currently reading The Paper Palace, which is kind 604 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 3: of in that vein, so would recommend that. But again, 605 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 3: that's not why we're here. What I think is good 606 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 3: about this idea V is that no one really wants 607 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 3: to read finance books unless there she is on the money, 608 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 3: of course. 609 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 4: So this is a. 610 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 3: Really good way of kind of grasping the main concepts 611 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 3: that you've taken away. You can done them down for 612 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 3: my good self and the listeners and have fun with it. 613 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 2: You're welcome. You are so welcome. And I've said on 614 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 2: the podcast before, we're going to start with my favorite 615 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 2: finance book of all time, and at the same time 616 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 2: as being my favorite, I would argue it is the 617 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 2: driest nance book of all time. But the thing I 618 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 2: adore about it, George, is actually the Cures our Cards, 619 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 2: seven cures out of it, which teach a different investment 620 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 2: lesson for each and every single segment. And I feel 621 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 2: like it's a really timeless book. So the book we 622 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: are going to talk about today, George, is called The 623 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 2: Richest Man in Babylon and it is by George Samuel Klassen. 624 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 2: And this book has existed for more than one hundred years. Literally, 625 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 2: it has been around the sun a fair few times. 626 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 2: But to summarize it very quickly, it gives from my perspective, 627 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 2: very common sense financial advice that I would argue is 628 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 2: still very applicable today that is told through different tales 629 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 2: and parables from the times of ancient Babylon, which sounds 630 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 2: very romantic, but I promise when you read it you'll 631 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 2: be like, this is dry. And also the font in 632 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,719 Speaker 2: this book is particularly small, which we don't write, like, 633 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 2: I want readable fonts, not fonts that make me squint 634 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 2: while reading. So like just a little bit of feedback 635 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 2: to the publishers there, you could increase it. But it 636 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 2: is very it feels very old. 637 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 3: Sophie, not gonna lie. You haven't really sold it. The 638 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 3: font's really small, it's boring and dry a written. 639 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 2: It's not great, But as I said, it has financial 640 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 2: advice in it that I think is incredibly relevant today. Okay, 641 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: so you're like still not selling it. 642 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean not really caring. Like what are the 643 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 4: main lessons that you learned from the book? 644 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 3: All right? 645 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 2: So there's there's a fictional Babylonian character in this book 646 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 2: and we follow him and his name's Arcad or Arcad 647 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 2: I think it's Arcad anyway. Arcad is a very poor 648 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 2: scribe who essentially became the richest man in Babylon through 649 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 2: these tips and tricks that are shared in the book. 650 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 2: So Babylon was the wealthiest city in the entire world 651 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 2: at the time that this was published, because people appreciated 652 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 2: the value of money, and this book, if You're in 653 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 2: financial Advice is known as being one of the most 654 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 2: influential classic books to exist in this space. And by 655 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 2: the end of the book, you have an understanding of 656 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 2: Arkad's financial advice. Specifically, he has seven cures and five 657 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 2: Laws of Gold, and these help you generate money, then 658 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 2: protect it, then invest it. So like it sounds kind 659 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 2: of cooler when I'd be like, oh, it's actually kind 660 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 2: of like a story, but let's just go through them 661 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 2: really quickly. Essentially, the seven cures are really important, and 662 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 2: they're kind of like seven top tips, and for each 663 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 2: tip you get kind of like a parable or a 664 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 2: story to go along with it as to why it's important. 665 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 2: And the first one is pay yourself first, which she's 666 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 2: on the Money we agree with, and he says you 667 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 2: should always, always, always be looking to save money where 668 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 2: you can. The author recommends saving at least ten percent 669 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 2: of your earnings always. If you can save a higher 670 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 2: portion of this, then that is fantastic. This money might 671 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 2: be just going to pay off debt, but that is 672 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 2: still growing your wealth. If you are in debt. You 673 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 2: live on seventy percent of what you earn, save ten 674 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 2: percent for yourself, and use the remaining twenty percent to 675 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 2: pay your debts. And you should set this aside before 676 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 2: you spend any other money. So that's kind of kind 677 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 2: of interesting. He also says that every expense you have 678 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 2: is slaving away for somebody else. If you don't pay 679 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 2: yourself first, you are merely working to pay for other people. 680 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 2: The author then goes on to explain that you might 681 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 2: as well be a servant if you don't pay yourself first, 682 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 2: and he says this is because servants work to earn 683 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 2: food and shelter. So that's number one in his seven cures. 684 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 4: Oh, that's number one. That's all seven times. 685 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 2: Not all seven babes like, sit down, strap yourself. In 686 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 2: Number two is control your expenses. So the author says 687 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 2: you absolutely well and truly need to control your expenses 688 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 2: to be able to save a minimum of ten percent 689 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 2: of your earnings, you actually have to minimize the amount 690 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 2: of money going out of your accounts or out of 691 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 2: your hands. So the recommendation in this book is that 692 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 2: you need to be spending ninety percent all life less 693 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 2: in total of your income. So the author recommends that 694 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 2: you need to learn to live below your means and 695 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 2: try and avoid any unnecessary expenses because your expenses will 696 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 2: always grow to equal your income if you don't protest. 697 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 2: So like lifestyle creep, yeah exactly, Like we talk about 698 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 2: this stuff all the time. So it turns out I 699 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 2: really really haven't reined. Then to the wheel, it's actually 700 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 2: come from four thousand years ago in Babylon, Like, who would. 701 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 4: Have thought he should have done a podcast? 702 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 2: I know? Can you imagine he would have made heaps? 703 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 2: So a perfect example of this is exactly like lifestyle Creep. 704 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 2: So when people get a raise, instead of using that 705 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 2: as an opportunity to save more money, people tend to 706 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 2: just start spending more. So unless you can control your 707 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 2: urged to buy unnecessary things, the author says, you're always 708 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 2: going to struggle to maintain this cure. That's kind of cool, right, yeah, 709 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 2: I like it. 710 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 4: What's next? 711 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 2: So, George, Number three is make money work for you, 712 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 2: So together, save it money and not spending money on 713 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 2: unnecessary things is not enough to actually create wealth. You 714 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 2: need to be investing your money. So the book says 715 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 2: the first two cures, which is saving and then controlling 716 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 2: your expenses will help you with this third cure. The 717 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 2: first two cures will provide money for you to invest, 718 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 2: and then every single cent of your savings should be invested. Again, 719 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 2: I think it's important here to say this isn't my 720 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 2: advice is and me summarizing the book. If you then 721 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 2: receive returns on your money invested, then you should be 722 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 2: investing those returns as well. So effectively, they recommend that 723 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 2: you build a little army of workers, which are your 724 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 2: dollars that are earning money for you. 725 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 4: Also known as compound interest. Am I right? 726 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not wrong. The other part of this chapter 727 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 2: is ensuring that you're investing in areas that you are knowledgeable, 728 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 2: or if there is an opportunity that you are not 729 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,879 Speaker 2: knowledgeable in and you need to learn more, you need 730 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 2: to lean on somebody who is an expert in that area. 731 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 2: So one example, which I think I've posted quotes on 732 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 2: before is you wouldn't take advice on purchasing diamonds from 733 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 2: a bricklayer. And I think that that is incredibly important 734 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 2: because so many people, especially nowadays, are reaching out to 735 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:20,280 Speaker 2: social media influences about buying crypto, and you go, why 736 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 2: would you do that if you actually want to create 737 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,879 Speaker 2: wealth instead of relying on experts in that area. So 738 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 2: the best people in this book, this is also me 739 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 2: going ha ha, but the best people to learn from 740 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 2: are actually financial advisors. In the book The Richest Man 741 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 2: in Babylon, there are actually several fictional characters who can 742 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 2: be described as financial advisors, but they are essentially rich, 743 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 2: self made men who are endorsed by the quote king 744 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 2: and other leaders in this book. But essentially they are 745 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 2: seen as being the trustworthy experts. They help other people 746 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 2: make money. But the guy who's trying to convince you 747 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 2: that he can help you buy diamonds, but he's a 748 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 2: bricklayer and doesn't have any diamonds, like, he's probably not 749 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 2: the one, right. So essentially avoid being scammed, my friends, 750 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 2: that's what we're trying to do. 751 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 4: Trust the pros, Trust the pros. 752 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 2: Are you ready for number four? 753 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:10,800 Speaker 4: Number four? Let's go, George. 754 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 2: Number four is protect your wealth. There are a number 755 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 2: of risks obviously associated with attempting to become rich and 756 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 2: becoming wealthy, and it is so easy to lose money 757 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 2: or make a poor investment. So to minimize risk, The 758 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 2: Richest Man in Babylon says that you need to learn 759 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: from people who have successfully built wealth and kept it 760 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 2: for long periods of time. The recommendation on this one 761 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 2: is surround yourself with people who are familiar with money, 762 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,879 Speaker 2: who work with it each day, and who ideally make 763 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 2: lots of it. The other recommendation in this chapter is 764 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 2: you want to spread your wealth out. You do not 765 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 2: want your investments to all be in one place, or 766 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 2: one stock or one bond. Doing so is arguably too risky, 767 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 2: so the book recommends that you diversify your investments based 768 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 2: on logic so that you will make money. I feel 769 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 2: like they've listened to the podcast before, George. 770 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 4: I think they've stolen your work. 771 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 5: Yeah. 772 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 2: Literally, all right, let's move on, g because number five 773 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 2: probably isn't. She's on the money advice. Are you ready? 774 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 2: Number five is own your own house. 775 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 3: Well, that's pretty much impossible, so thanks a lot, George. 776 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:29,720 Speaker 2: Thanks George. Two, and we can't afford property, so rude. Anyway. 777 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 2: Number five is own your own house because apparently owning 778 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,759 Speaker 2: property gives a person more confidence. They say in the 779 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 2: book that renting a property is an easy way to 780 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 2: waste money. They say that you're simply giving your money 781 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 2: away to another landlord. They say it is better to 782 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 2: take out a loan and buy a property. When the 783 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 2: loan is paid off, you then own that house and 784 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 2: you can do whatever you want with it. You can 785 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 2: even start renting out that property as a fourth investment. 786 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 2: But the book says the best case scenario is buying 787 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 2: a house without a loan. If you can do this, 788 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:04,800 Speaker 2: then you definitely should blow. Yeah, I, as a financial advisor, 789 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 2: can't agree with that. I mean it's probably I as 790 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 2: a financial advisor, can't agree with that. In fact, it's 791 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 2: probably advice that worked four thousand years ago in Babylon, 792 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 2: but like, probably not today. Like I don't know if 793 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 2: he knows what our interest rates are, they're pretty good, 794 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 2: but the cluster property nowadays is a bit too hard 795 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 2: to swallow. So like, nice, try, George, you did good. Yep, 796 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: let's just move on to number six. Let's move on 797 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 2: number six. I do love, So we're back on track. George, 798 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 2: we're back on track. Number six is ensure a future income. 799 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 2: So he says that you always need to look forward 800 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 2: to the future. Financial circumstances can change dramatically and really quickly, 801 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 2: So what you need to do is have a plan 802 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 2: in place in case circumstances are worsened for you. An 803 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 2: example of this in the book was that you become 804 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 2: too ill to work, or maybe a specific industry isn't 805 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 2: needed anymore. You want to have investments in place that 806 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,800 Speaker 2: are leveraging compound interest, and you also want to develop 807 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 2: a passive income stream that will keep coming in after 808 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 2: you don't work anymore. Cough superanuation cough. This will help 809 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 2: account for factors that could potentially pop up in the future, 810 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 2: like becoming not well or being too old to work. 811 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 2: So that is something we definitely agree with Jking. 812 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,320 Speaker 4: One hundred percent. Super is very important. 813 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 2: Moving on, we're trying to be fast. I mean we're 814 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 2: not because I'm really excited about this. You'll be like Victoria. 815 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 2: It would have taken the same amount of time to 816 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 2: read the book, but whatever. And g Number seven of 817 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:35,240 Speaker 2: ourcads seven cures in the book is invest in yourself, 818 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 2: which I think we can all agree with. 819 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 4: Oh gorgeous, agreed. 820 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 2: Your most valuable asset of all is your mind. So 821 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 2: to maximize the ability to gain wealth, you have to 822 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,399 Speaker 2: invest in yourself. They say you need to improve your 823 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,359 Speaker 2: earning potential and you can do this by acquiring new 824 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 2: skills and not laughting for acquiring wealth during that period. 825 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 2: So think about how you could be earning more money. 826 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 2: Then consider what changes you need to make yourself that 827 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,720 Speaker 2: make that potential wealth generation a reality, and then invest 828 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 2: in yourself to make those changes. So learning a new 829 00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 2: skill or investing in yourself could be anything. They recommend 830 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 2: things like changing to be more healthy habits like walking more, 831 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 2: or reading helpful books before bed, or cutting out a 832 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 2: bad spending habit. So I think we can all agree 833 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 2: that that's probably a good tip. 834 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 4: Definitely. Okay, So they're the lessons or whatever you said before. 835 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, a seven qs g. 836 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,240 Speaker 4: What are the five laws of gold? 837 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 2: That so you can smash through the five laws of 838 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 2: gold very quickly, It's not going to be a little 839 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 2: summary of each. In the book, George provides us with 840 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 2: a summary of how to make money great. He calls 841 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 2: these the five laws of gold. Number one, he says 842 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 2: gold comes easily to those who save at least ten 843 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 2: percent of their earnings. Number two, gold labors diligently and 844 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 2: multiplies for people who find this gold a profitable employment. 845 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 2: Number three, gold clings to the people who invest their 846 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 2: gold with wise people. Number four gold slips away from 847 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 2: people who invest in unfamiliar purposes, and number five gold 848 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:17,760 Speaker 2: flees from people who force gold into impossible earnings, which 849 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 2: I think we can all go hmmm. I feel like 850 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 2: that makes sense because obviously is trying to say, Look, 851 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,399 Speaker 2: if you're trying to force money into impossible areas, it's 852 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 2: very likely you're going to lose it. And if you're 853 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 2: investing with people you don't trust or in unfamiliar asset classes, 854 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 2: like it might slip away because you don't know what 855 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 2: you're doing. So I feel like there's a lot of 856 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 2: good lessons to learn there, but to summarize g because 857 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 2: we are done here, Like, I'm sure you're sick of 858 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 2: me talking about this book, but now you can pretend 859 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 2: that at brunch you read the books Like this could 860 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,280 Speaker 2: become a whole side podcast. What do you reckon? 861 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the girls are going to love this. 862 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 3: At brunch tomorrow, they're going to be asking me all 863 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 3: the questions, seek down. 864 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 4: Lessons to tell you. 865 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 2: But I do think it's really important because so many 866 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 2: people say things like they which finance books should I read? 867 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 2: And I go, oh, look, here's my favorite one. I 868 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,240 Speaker 2: really like it because it's the principles and it's the rules, 869 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 2: and it's the things that I really want you to 870 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 2: get a base understanding of before you start trying to 871 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 2: talk about strategy and before I start being like, well, 872 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:22,880 Speaker 2: this is what the investment is like, I want you 873 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 2: to understand why you're investing, and I guess is a 874 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 2: way always start with money stories and understanding yourself. But 875 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 2: to summarize the Richest Man in Babylon, essentially, the secret 876 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 2: to creating wealth is spending as little as possible, saving 877 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,320 Speaker 2: money so that you can invest, and investing in yourself 878 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 2: so that you can seize financial opportunities as they come up. 879 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 2: To become rich, you need to think about your money 880 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 2: like a tree. In the book, they say that trees 881 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,439 Speaker 2: grow very slowly from the seed, and that they need 882 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 2: water and like to flourish, and the seven cures are 883 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 2: the food for your money tree. That said, they actually 884 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,720 Speaker 2: can't help grow your money tree without hard work and consistency. 885 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 2: So the recommendation is to set out a logical plan 886 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 2: and stick to your financial plan. If you do this 887 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 2: and you work really hard, then money will accrue surprisingly quickly. 888 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 2: That's the summary of the book. 889 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 3: Jeking, well done, V. I think it's very cool that 890 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 3: a book written more than one hundred years ago still 891 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 3: stands up. I think that's really really good. 892 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 2: I think it still stands up, and that's why I 893 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 2: like to start with that one. And I know that 894 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 2: it is dry and I've just told you all about 895 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 2: it so that you don't have to read it yourself. 896 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 2: In saying that, I think I've lost count of how 897 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 2: many times I've read it because I just really like it. 898 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 2: It makes me feel at home. But let me know 899 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 2: if you've got another book, or if you hated this segment, 900 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 2: let us know. Imagine if this was a whole pod, 901 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 2: I reckon we could do like bonus episodes where Victoria's 902 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 2: finished a book and I'm just excited to tell you 903 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:47,439 Speaker 2: about it. 904 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,800 Speaker 4: I'll co host that with you.
