We 487 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 2: are going to be talking about which is a better option. 488 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 2: Are we going to be building a home or are 489 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 2: we buying one? And something we slid into our dms 490 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 2: about should I be getting a credit card to be 491 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 2: getting through the rest of this summer? 492 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: Mm? 493 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 5: Spoiler, I wonder what Victoria thinks.

This year, me and my partner 508 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 8: bought our first house, a townhouse, and we are well 509 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 8: and truly on the way of looking what the next 510 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 8: house looks like for our family home. And I work 511 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 8: at a bank in the construction lending sector, and right 512 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 8: now it's proving true that building is going to be 513 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 8: a lot cheaper than it is buying, and that might 514 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 8: change obviously in the next like one to five years. 515 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 8: But I'm curious to know what your thoughts are on 516 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 8: buying versus building. Thank you well. 517 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 5: I had this exact situation this year myself, so I 518 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 5: feel you tell me kind of qualified. I had a 519 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 5: very similar situation to our listener in that I was 520 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 5: just finding that everything that was established was so expensive 521 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 5: to the point where prices were being pushed up beyond 522 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 5: what I felt was reasonable for them, like you would 523 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 5: be overpaying in my opinion. Now I'm obviously going through 524 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 5: the building process. I'm still in very early days, but 525 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 5: I think it's been a fantastic decision for me. I 526 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 5: think the really fun thing, especially if you're someone who's particular, 527 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 5: is when you build, like all of that control sits 528 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 5: with you, so you get to pick, as Victoria was 529 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 5: saying earlier, like all of your tiles, your wall color, 530 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 5: like all these different fun things. And I think that 531 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 5: that is a really exciting thing to me, Like it's 532 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 5: something that I've really enjoyed. It has been a bit 533 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 5: of an arduous process, but it's been really fun. The 534 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 5: other thing is, and I guess because you guys already 535 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 5: have your property, it's probably not as applicable to use 536 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 5: it was to me. 537 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 3: But building a. 538 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 5: Home meant that I was able to take advantage of 539 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 5: a lot of grants and schemes that I wouldn't have 540 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,640 Speaker 5: qualified for had I purchased established. So, like the first 541 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 5: home owners grant the stamp duty exemption because of the 542 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 5: cost of buying established homes, I would have capped out 543 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 5: on that, whereas if you're buying land and then building 544 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 5: a home on it, the assessment is done on the 545 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 5: value of the land at the time that you purchase it, 546 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 5: which is often like half ish of your total cost, 547 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 5: And so like that saved me. I believe, like thirty 548 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 5: plus thousand dollars is stamp duty. I'm with your Victoria 549 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 5: because she knows the numbers. 550 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 2: I'm yeah, I went through her numbers. Yep, everything she 551 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 2: has said so far. Yes, yeah, there were huge things 552 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 2: to me. 553 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 5: Obviously for you that might not be the case because 554 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 5: you've already bought a home. But I think I'm a 555 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 5: big fan of the process of building. Heaps of people 556 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 5: said to me over the years, Oh, I wouldn't build 557 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 5: your first home, and now that I'm doing it, I 558 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 5: don't really understand why they said that, Like maybe. 559 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 2: A building not to be rude. Yeah, it's like when 560 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 2: people are like, how hard could parenting be? True when 561 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 2: they're not parents, and I go, you sit down, you 562 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 2: just wait. People say things like, oh my god, I 563 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 2: would never let my kid. No, sorry, you can't say 564 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 2: you can't take a Yeah, like, don't get me wrong. 565 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: You might have a very smooth process and I'm manifesting 566 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 2: that very hard. But yeah, yeah, sorry to cut you off. 567 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 3: Tell me your thoughts. 568 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 2: Okay, So when it comes to building versus buying on paper, 569 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 2: building is going to look cheaper, that doesn't mean it is. 570 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: I think we need to look at the season and 571 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 2: of our lives. And you know, to flip this, we 572 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: didn't build, but my husband and I purchased our first 573 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 2: home with the intention of significantly renovating it, and we 574 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 2: did and we sold it and like it all came 575 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: out in the wash. When I say it all came 576 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 2: out in the wash, it was a chaotic process, like Jess, 577 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 2: you remember my chaos period. And I can't tell you 578 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,439 Speaker 2: if that was all the builder's fault. Terrible builder, by 579 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 2: the way, sorry, not builder, terrible project manager. The builder 580 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 2: was delightful, terrible project manager. It wasn't me, by the way. 581 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: I didn't like if I had, it would have been 582 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 2: just as bad. Anyway. That process meant that we thought 583 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 2: we would have ended up walking away with a bigger 584 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 2: profit on the house when we sold it, and that's 585 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 2: just not the reality of the situation. Absolutely fine, because 586 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 2: that's not what you're checking in with my husband, and 587 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 2: I decided that building wasn't for us because it really 588 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 2: depends on where you're building what you're looking at, Like 589 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 2: Jess is building in an area that has a lot 590 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 2: of construction already, and you're. 591 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 3: Going to go in availability. 592 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to go with a house on land package. 593 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 2: So for me to build any area that I would 594 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 2: have wanted to build in, it would have meant there's 595 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 2: no empty blocks of land. It would have meant a 596 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 2: buy a house, demo a house, rebuild a house, which 597 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 2: is going to have a lot more costs associated with it, 598 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 2: not just because of demolition, but because it's out of 599 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 2: the area that most of the builders are working in. 600 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 2: So Jess is going to get more preferable rates because 601 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 2: they're also building three houses down the street that have 602 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 2: very similar fittings and fixtures and they can kind of 603 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 2: keep things on a similar timeframe. There's a lot to it. 604 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 2: It also depends if you've entered into a fixed rate 605 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 2: building contract versus a not fixed rate building contract. And 606 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: as we're probably I don't know if you guys are watching, 607 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 2: but like mining is getting more expensive, minerals are getting 608 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 2: more expensive, iron ore is getting more expensive, and for this, 609 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: it means that lots of people's budgets are being blown 610 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 2: because they're like, oh, well, you know, these these floorboards 611 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 2: were fifty dollars a square meter, they're now sixty dollars 612 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 2: a square meter, and you think ten bucks here and there, 613 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,719 Speaker 2: what's the difference. But this stuff adds up. And then 614 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 2: it's also the delays. So Jess is in a perfect 615 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 2: position from my perspective. She's got a rental property that 616 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 2: she can live in. You could go month to month 617 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 2: if they kept pushing it out and make it work 618 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 2: for you. But there's a lot of people who will 619 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 2: build and then go home moving with mum and dad 620 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: for the six months they say it takes, then it 621 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 2: takes twelve, or they have to keep renting and paying 622 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 2: the mortgage on the land. Look, there's just a lot 623 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 2: to go through. So I don't think that there is 624 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 2: a right or a wrong. But I think it's about 625 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: deep diving because like, I wouldn't do it in my area, 626 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 2: but I did the numbers for Jests and I was like, yes, 627 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: dive in Like that sounds fantastic, Like you know, she'd 628 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 2: already done the research before she even bought the house 629 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: on the type of builder she'd use, how much the 630 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 2: type of house she would want to purchase would cost, 631 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 2: what the upgrades would look like, what upgrades she could afford, 632 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 2: versus not like just went deep. That's what I want 633 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 2: you to do if you're going to be doing that, 634 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 2: whereas I went deep on mine, and I was just like, 635 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 2: my goodness, Like this is crazy. 636 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 8: You know. 637 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 2: I don't want to scare people, but like I have 638 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 2: a neighbor down the road for me who did the 639 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 2: knockdown rebuild. Their house is going to be beautiful. They're 640 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 2: already fifty percent over budget. 641 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 642 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 2: And like once you get there, what do you do? 643 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: Just stop building the house? Yeah, you see, So you 644 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 2: have to make sure that you know what you're up 645 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,719 Speaker 2: against when it comes to building, Like, yes, you might 646 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 2: save on stamp duty, but like, what does the timeframe 647 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 2: look like? And I feel like yours is very predictable, Jess, Yeah, 648 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 2: because of the style of house, the location, et cetera. 649 00:28:58,560 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 3: Build her and stuff too. 650 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 2: Exactly exactly, Whereas if we had done it, we could 651 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 2: have gone through a volume builder. But because it's so 652 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: out of the way of every other house they're building, 653 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: we would be the ones that would be left lagging 654 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 2: while they prioritize getting a bulk lot done. 655 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 5: Yeah. The other thing I would say, sorry, you remind 656 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 5: me of something very good. I so about this in 657 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 5: a YouTube view. The costs that you look at for 658 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 5: houses online are so not even remotely close to the 659 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 5: final costion there. 660 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 2: It's crazy. They'll give you the budget version. 661 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's like you have to factor in upgrades, 662 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 5: site costs, which will vary depending on where your land is, 663 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 5: the cost putting appliances, driveway, your driving's. 664 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 3: Not included, fend, things not included. There are lots of 665 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 3: things like that. 666 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 5: That you need to factor in that will be on 667 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 5: top of whatever those listed prices are online. 668 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 2: So you go, great, that's the house, and they're like, yeah, 669 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 2: the shell of the house. 670 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 6: Huh, yeah, that's so mean. 671 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 3: Yeah it is. 672 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 2: But then there's just such variance between what you do. 673 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 2: Like Jess will go in right, so she's picked her 674 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 2: like shell of her house. And now we're going in 675 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 2: and we're looking at the kitchen. Do you want marble 676 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: bench tops? I do need it, yes, but like some 677 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 2: people would not want that out. Yeah, that's going to 678 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 2: cost you between ten and thirty thousand dollars yep, and 679 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 2: that's another cost to be added. Great, what types of 680 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 2: appliances are you putting in? Are you just putting in 681 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 2: the most basic or are you like, no, massive cook, 682 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 2: I want the fanciest European appliances. Well that's going to 683 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: change the price point again, and these changes around the 684 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 2: house are going to add up. Yeah, the type of 685 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 2: tile you pick one could be the most basic tile 686 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 2: dollar per tile money win. 687 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 3: Yep. 688 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 2: You could be like, oh, I really like these Italian 689 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 2: blue ones. 690 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 6: They work really well. 691 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,479 Speaker 2: Great, that's actually seventeen dollars a tile, and that adds up. 692 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: So it's not that they're trying to screw you over, 693 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 2: but they can't give you an accurate representation of what 694 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 2: your dreamhouse is going to look like because they're not 695 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 2: trying to mess you around. They're like, the base costs this, 696 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,959 Speaker 2: and then your kitchen could cost like we could probably 697 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 2: build one for ten grand money win. Or did you 698 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: want all of the luxury inclusions because that's a fifty 699 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 2: thousand dollar kitchen totally? Well that's one hundred thousand dollar kitch, 700 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? So is that fair to 701 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 2: just give it a one price. I see, Yeah, yeah 702 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 2: that makes sense. What would you do build a bye? 703 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: God? 704 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 4: I just am so it's not my world, it's not 705 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 4: my wheelhouse. But I think that I wouldn't have the 706 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 4: patience to build. I feel like I would be so 707 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 4: excited to be purchasing that I would want it to 708 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 4: be already existing. But there is something really nice about 709 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 4: knowing that you're walking into a home that you've bought, 710 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 4: and you, other than the builders, are the. 711 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 6: Only ones to touch the service lived there. You're the 712 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 6: only one to live in that house. Ever. You know, 713 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 6: there would be something really special about that. 714 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 2: Do you care about that? Are you excited about that? 715 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 5: I mean yeah, like I guess it's something nice, like well, 716 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 5: no one had sex on my kitchen counter.

It's a real shame. But 727 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 3: if you could keep your kitchen. 728 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:25,959 Speaker 2: Counterclanus fantastic, that would be fantastic. I just didn't care 729 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 2: about that as someone who's always like lived in rentals 730 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: and bought secondhand cars like I. 731 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 3: Just that's a great point. Like all my couches. 732 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got this brand new kitchen. No one has 733 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 2: had sex on my kitchen bench.

I feel like 737 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 2: that has probably wrapped that up. Would you like to 738 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 2: get into the DM. 739 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 3: That we got?

So someone slipped into my 743 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 2: DMS this week and said, Hi, she's on the I 744 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 2: have a dilemma that I'd love to get some opinions 745 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 2: on context. In term four, I took a nine week 746 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 2: opportunity as a teacher's aid in a town twenty hours 747 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 2: from where I'm from. As a temporary position, I won't 748 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 2: receive holiday pay over the next six weeks, but I 749 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 2: will have permanency there In twenty twenty six, however, I'm 750 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 2: concerned about finances over the six week holidays that are 751 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 2: coming up. I've left with five thousand dollars in my 752 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 2: bank account and four and a half thousand dollars in 753 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 2: my raised shares. At the moment, I don't have any debt, 754 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 2: just twenty seven hundred and sixty five dollars of total 755 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 2: rent to pay for the next six weeks before I 756 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 2: return to start my new job. I'll also have a 757 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: few big expenses over the holidays. The big question here 758 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 2: is should I apply for a personal loan or a 759 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 2: credit card to get me through this period or is 760 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 2: it wise to withdraw some of my money from shares? 761 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 8: Oh? 762 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 4: I mean, maybe it's because I am kind of savvy 763 00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 4: with my money now, because I'm perpetually broke. 764 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 6: And sorry, you're. 765 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 2: Definitely getting better.

Yeah true, actually legal, Yeah that's true. 769 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 6: That's a really good point. That's crazy. 770 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 2: But I'm taking your identity away from you. I'm so sorry. 771 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 3: That's so fun. 772 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 4: I think that I would just be picking up and 773 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 4: I know that it sounds like they're quite busy, but 774 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 4: I would be picking up. 775 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 2: Like odd jobs here and there. 776 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 6: It's a really tricky one. 777 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 4: I don't think you should go into debt because it 778 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 4: could get out of control really quickly, like a wildfire, 779 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 4: you know. 780 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 3: So don't risk it. 781 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:31,800 Speaker 6: Don't risk it. 782 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 4: I'd be trying to find odd jobs here and there 783 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 4: before dipping into your shares. 784 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 3: I mean, six weeks is a long time to not 785 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 3: be working. I think that I'm with you. 786 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 5: I'm team like, pick up some extra work, if you 787 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 5: can do some doornatshit do whatever to me? You say, like, 788 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 5: what I have heard is rough a little bit over 789 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 5: half of your income or money that you have, half 790 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 5: of your five thousand dollars needs to go to rent. 791 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 5: In my mind, for myself, two thousand dollars to last 792 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 5: six weeks would be enough to cover food, et cetera. 793 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 5: I don't know about your bills and stuff, and I 794 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 5: don't know about those large expenses that you alluded to. 795 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 3: Yes, so if the combination of those things is going to. 796 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:14,439 Speaker 5: Chew through all of that five thousand dollars, I would 797 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 5: be saying that, yeah, you do need to look at 798 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 5: an alternative option to give yourself a bit of safety, 799 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 5: whether that is picking up our jobs. That would be 800 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 5: my personal preference for you and for myself too. Honestly, 801 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 5: if you had to get a credit card, and I'm 802 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 5: not against credit cards, I have one for the points 803 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 5: I think, I would just say, be smart about it, 804 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 5: so I would save signing up for the credit card 805 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 5: until the last possible minute, so that you can align 806 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 5: your repayment with when your first payment from you when 807 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 5: your job will because I assume at most your first 808 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 5: payment would be every four weeks, but I believe for 809 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 5: teachers he today it's more often fortnightly. So if that's 810 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 5: the case, I would say, maybe like a week or 811 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 5: two before you go back to school, when you arguably 812 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 5: probably are quite skin get a credit card. Do not 813 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 5: spend more on that credit card. Then you will be 814 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 5: able to pay off with that first pay cycle, and 815 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 5: make sure that you do so so you're not paying 816 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 5: any interest. 817 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 3: Is it an ideal situation? 818 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 6: Obviously not. 819 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 5: It really comes down to are you responsible enough to 820 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 5: have a credit card? All those sorts of things exactly 821 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 5: We're saying, if you're going to spend and get into 822 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 5: like a bad cycle, wouldn't recommend Definitely my preference would 823 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 5: be just pick up the extra work to get you through, 824 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 5: because six weeks is a long time to not be working. 825 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 5: But if you absolutely had to, I don't want you 826 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 5: to not have any money available to you at all. 827 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 3: That's my thought totally. 828 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 2: I agree and don't agree. I would be like saving 829 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 2: the credit card as a last resort, like just because 830 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 2: I feel like that's a fantastic way of dealing with it. Jesse, 831 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 2: It genuinely is. But that's how so many people get 832 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 2: their first credit cards and then get themselves into deck 833 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: because they go, this will just get me through this period, 834 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 2: and then after this period, I'm just not going to 835 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 2: use it again. But then next month happens and you 836 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 2: really want to go to someone's birthday, or the month 837 00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 2: after that happens and you're like, far out, I've got 838 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 2: unexpected rediro cost. I'll just chuck it on my credit 839 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 2: card and deal with it later. And that's how debt 840 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 2: starts to snowball, and you start to get more and 841 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 2: more comfortable using your card and you don't think about it, 842 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 2: Like nobody gets a credit card with the intention of 843 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,879 Speaker 2: going into significant debt. I don't think I've ever met 844 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 2: someone who's been in significant credit card debt and I've said, well, 845 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 2: you know, why did you first get a credit card? 846 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 2: Talk me through that, and they go, well, V I 847 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 2: just had all this expensive luxury stuff I couldn't afforded, 848 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 2: and I just thought, yeah, I just thought i'd get 849 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 2: a credit card and I could have that stuff. It's 850 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 2: always a story like that, where oh, yeah, I had 851 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 2: these six weeks and that's the tipping point. So I 852 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 2: feel like it's a very slippery slope, which is why 853 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 2: I would avoid it at all costs. Not saying it's 854 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 2: the end of the world to do that, but I 855 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 2: just want a caveat there. For me, it would be 856 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 2: what you suggested as well. What could you do in 857 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 2: those six weeks? Could you jump on air tasker and 858 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 2: you know, do some proof reading for somebody to get 859 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 2: a few couple of like a couple of hundred bucks 860 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,800 Speaker 2: in are their tasks that you could take up? Is 861 00:37:57,880 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 2: there a cafe you could go in work in. 862 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 3: Did you do tutoring? 863 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 2: Aud you do shootoring? Like I feel like lots of 864 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 2: cafes over the holiday periods always want some more hands 865 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 2: on deck. And if you went in and said, hey, 866 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 2: I'd love to work for you for the next six 867 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 2: months while you're dealing with additional holiday traffic. Like that's 868 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: a money win. That's probably a good tip for people 869 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 2: who are listening to this on boxing day and they're like, oh, 870 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 2: like I don't start unied till March or something. Yeah, 871 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 2: that's a busy period for most people in HOSPO. So yeah, 872 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 2: I would look at that. I would obviously firstly want 873 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 2: to look at like your budget. Is there anything you 874 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: can delay, Like is obviously we're paying our rent, but 875 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 2: are there any things coming up that you're like, Oh, 876 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 2: I actually don't have to spend that this month. They 877 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 2: could put it off until I have my full time 878 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 2: job again. But yeah, for me, I think it would 879 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 2: be about budget and cash flow. How can I bring 880 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 2: in some additional cash? Okay, maybe we could look at 881 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 2: our raise portfolio, because in all honesty, from a pragmatic 882 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 2: point of view, I'd prefer you to pull out a 883 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 2: couple of one hundred dollars that you need from your 884 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 2: share portfolio then get a credit card to cover that. 885 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 2: I don't know how long you've been investing in rays, 886 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 2: I don't know what that looks like. But if it's 887 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 2: either on par with the market or just above the market. 888 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 2: It's not the end of the world. And then you 889 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 2: could create a little plan once you get back to 890 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 2: work to replenish that amount. But yeah, that's probably where 891 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 2: my brain is at. I'm just so scared of you're 892 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 2: getting a credit card and then falling down the credit 893 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 2: card like slide. 894 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 3: Basically totally what everyone else say. 895 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 2: Everyone else always has an opinion, and I love it. 896 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 2: So the first thing I asked you guys was what 897 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,959 Speaker 2: would you do if you were our community member. Forty 898 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 2: four percent said I would be trying to reduce my expenses. 899 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,800 Speaker 2: Thirty four percent, you guys, we're all on the same page, 900 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 2: said I'm going to look at holiday income. Twelve percent 901 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 2: said they'd sale shares, and ten percent said look at 902 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 2: loan and credit options. So I feel like that's reflective 903 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 2: of the conversation we had. The next question we asked 904 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 2: was what's your biggest priority with money right now? Thirty 905 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 2: eight percent said working on your budget and cash flow. 906 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,440 Speaker 2: My money master class is a great place to start. 907 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 2: Twenty six percent of you said growing investments. My investing 908 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 2: master class is a great first sister. Nineteen percent said 909 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 2: avoiding an eighteen percent said generating more income. Then I 910 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 2: asked you, guys, what's your two cents? So diving straight in, 911 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 2: first person said, will they even be eligible for a 912 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 2: loan or a credit card if they're not currently working? 913 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 2: That's a great point. Actually, oh true, Yes and no 914 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,919 Speaker 2: if you've got a signed employment contract. Usually yes as 915 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 2: a low bar. Yeah, not saying that is a good thing, 916 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 2: but there is usually a very low bar. Next person, 917 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 2: it is a two parter. I would make up a 918 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 2: budget and try my best to stick to it. Also 919 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 2: try and get some extra cash flow in, maybe with 920 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 2: tutoring or other casual jobs. Just keeping everything in the black. 921 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 3: Yeah. 922 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,959 Speaker 2: Next person said, can a family member learn new money 923 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 2: interest free and then you can pay it back when 924 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 2: you're working? I mean, not the worst. Like if you're 925 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 2: in a situation where your mum can give you five 926 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 2: hundred bucks and you pay you back and it's very 927 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 2: clean and easy. I don't think that's the worst thing 928 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 2: in the world. No, but not everybody is in a 929 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 2: position where they want to do that or can do that. 930 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 2: Next person said, Hubby and I use a credit card 931 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 2: responsibly to manage cash flow, and it works well for us. 932 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 2: I agree, so do we. So does Jess, Like it's 933 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 2: not a bad thing. What would happen if I gave 934 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 2: you a credit card nowadays? 935 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 9: No? 936 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 4: Today, I think I'd be okay with it. Like maybe 937 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 4: even a year or two ago it would have blown 938 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 4: up out of country. 939 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 2: It wouldn't be So you need to know your personality 940 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 2: and whether that's going to be totally totally next person said, 941 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 2: if she's offered permanency in twenty twenty six, she should 942 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 2: be receiving holiday pay union chats asap needed. 943 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 3: There you go, good to know. 944 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 2: Well, yes and no, so absolutely agree. But I'm pretty 945 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:32,279 Speaker 2: sure holiday pay only works like once you're in the job. Yeah, 946 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 2: like your contract doesn't start until the first date. Yeah, 947 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 2: so maybe you get holiday pay next year for like 948 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty seven holidays, but you don't get it 949 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 2: this year. Does that make sense? Because there's no way, 950 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 2: like if I took on a new staff member, logically, 951 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be like, oh, Jess, come work for me 952 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 2: from you know, the start of February. I'll just start 953 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 2: paying you now. Yeah, that doesn't make sense to me. 954 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 2: But again, I'm not a teacher, so that might not 955 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 2: be how it works. I'm just a little bit like 956 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 2: call you union anyway and find out and last one 957 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 2: I'll give you. This person said, absolutely, don't do it, 958 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 2: Just go get a casual or retail or cafe job. 959 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 2: Credit is always a trap. Yes, yes, yes, true, all right, 960 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 2: I feel like that's a good rap on it. I 961 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 2: don't think we should be getting a credit card to 962 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 2: get through the summer season, not because it wouldn't help us, 963 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 2: but because I think it's a slippery slope. Fair now, 964 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 2: I do, and I don't want to get into this 965 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 2: next segment.
