I worked my way up through tape with 18 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 2: three sets and two diplomas, and then went to UNI 19 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 2: after school. 20 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 4: After a shock split. 21 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 2: With my partner in twenty twenty, I lost my land 22 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: and building contract and shortly after bought a unit all 23 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,199 Speaker 2: on my own are upfront. I never had anything given 24 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 2: to me and I want to talk about buying a 25 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: house in the current market as a single and low 26 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 2: income earner.

We're getting on the show and I cannot 37 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 3: wait to get into it. So without further adoo, let's 38 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 3: just jump straight in. My friend. First question, what is 39 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: your attitude towards money? 40 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 4: I have, Like, I mean, given my background, it was 41 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 4: just me and my mom. She was quite a low 42 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 4: income earner. She's working as a teacher's aid in school, 43 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 4: so she had a mortgage on her own and in 44 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 4: the household, it was always very well verbalized that oh, 45 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 4: we don't have enough money, so it had like that 46 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 4: scarcity mindset really early on. So my attitude's kind of 47 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 4: like kept that way and after moving out and stuff. 48 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 4: I just had that drive to be like, Okay, well, no, 49 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 4: I don't want to struggle and I don't want to 50 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 4: feel this stress towards money. I mean I saw it 51 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 4: affect my mom, like mental health wise, she really struggled, 52 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 4: and you know, even we were on food stamps a 53 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 4: lot of the time. And I mean as a kid, 54 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 4: like I was quite embarrassed at the supermarket, but I 55 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 4: didn't really fully realize the extent of struggle that she 56 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 4: had on her and the pressure of that as a 57 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 4: single mom. So yeah, i'd say that's that's probably still 58 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 4: my attitude towards money a bit. Yeah. 59 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 3: I mean, that's your money story, and that's like where 60 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 3: you've come from and what's going on in your life. 61 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 3: And to be a bit cheeky, I want to ask 62 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: another question before we get into it, even though I 63 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: meant to wait till the end, I'm sorry, do you 64 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 3: know anything about what your mum's money story was? 65 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 4: Like? 66 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 3: Is this a cycle? Is this something that you know 67 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 3: her parents grew up in the same way, or is 68 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: this something where you know it's just really tough, Like 69 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 3: tell me a little bit about that. 70 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 4: Thank you for asking. I actually feel like it's really 71 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,119 Speaker 4: interesting because it is. I think it's a generational thing. 72 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 4: I mean, my grandma came from Hungary. She struggled. She 73 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 4: worked like five jobs to support her three kids. I 74 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 4: mean they were all like under five when they came over, 75 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 4: and so the struggle was there when she was a 76 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 4: child as well. And in her household. Yeah, they all 77 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 4: had to get jobs when they were like ten just 78 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 4: to support everyone. It's really interesting. And I mean my 79 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 4: mom bought a house really young as well with her 80 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 4: partner or my dad, and it kind of went downhill 81 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 4: when she got cancer. So just before I was born, 82 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 4: she had breast cancer, and I think that changed her 83 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 4: mentality towards money as well. So she went from like 84 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 4: doing really well financially and setting herself up to struggling 85 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 4: mentally with the whole cancer diagnosis, and it just became 86 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 4: this thing where she would actually spend all her money. 87 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 4: So she started like buying things to kind of fill 88 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 4: that gap, I guess you could say. So, Yeah, when 89 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 4: I was sort of growing up, she became like quite 90 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 4: like even though she was low income, trying to pay 91 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 4: the mortgage, trying to pay food, she also bought a 92 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 4: lot of things like material things, so I kind of 93 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 4: saw that, and from a young age, I kind of 94 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 4: learned like, Okay, well why is this happening? Like if 95 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 4: you could pay you know, mortgage and not be worried 96 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 4: instead of buying these items that you haven't or you 97 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 4: won't touch in years. Yeah, yeah, so it's kind of 98 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 4: it's quite interesting. 99 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's had that is actually super interesting. And I 100 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: ask because often it is a cycle and you learn 101 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 3: from other people's money stories and it takes very conscious 102 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 3: decisions to change your money story, but you have to 103 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 3: acknowledge where you've come from and where that might have 104 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 3: come from, and why that's the case in global Why 105 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 3: do I feel like that about money? Why does it 106 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 3: really frustrate me? Or why does it make me feel sick? 107 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 3: And it's like, well, that's because that's how you grew up, 108 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 3: and that makes sense. And there's no shame in money 109 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 3: stories because they're not actually our fault. They're not actually 110 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 3: our choosing. No one chooses their initial money story. But 111 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 3: the cool thing about money stories is that you get 112 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 3: to choose where they go once we're an adult, and 113 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 3: once we're able to you know, format that journey. And 114 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,359 Speaker 3: it sounds like and I'm not jumping ahead. I from us, 115 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 3: But it sounds like you've done a really good job 116 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 3: of changing that from the sound of what you wrote in. 117 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 3: So next question, my friend, is what do you do 118 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 3: for work and how much money do you earn? 119 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 4: So at the start of this year, I actually took 120 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 4: quite a big pay cut. It was over twenty thousand. 121 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 3: Oh my god. 122 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 4: I believe I was a disability support worker for five years. 123 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 4: I injured my back when I was twenty one and 124 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 4: was on work cover. So I kind of wanted to 125 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 4: get out of that because I just kept it just 126 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 4: kept happening, like I just kept reaggravating the injury, and 127 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 4: you had to get out. So at the moment, I'm 128 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 4: working from home within like an NDIS provider, So the 129 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 4: National Disability Insurance scheme mainly more on like the invoicing 130 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 4: kind of side of the organization, and I'm really enjoying that. 131 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 3: Oh I'm so glad. It sucks that you had to 132 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,919 Speaker 3: take a pay cut, but you went twenty thousand dollars 133 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 3: down from what to what? My friend? Yep, we want 134 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 3: the need, No, we want the needy, gritty. This is 135 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 3: she's on the money. We're not a Lucive've here, my friend. 136 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, so last year I think I got up to 137 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 4: about seventy four k. That was part time as well, 138 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 4: but you know, a lot of weekends, a lot of sleepovers, 139 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 4: of public holidays, and now I'm on about fifty two. 140 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 3: But that is It's one of those things, right. I 141 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 3: don't think people realize the time and energy and effort 142 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: and mental load working and disability puts on you. It's 143 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: such a special job and anyone who works in that, 144 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: oh my gosh, you are so special. But it's also like, Okay, 145 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: I get that the money would have been really good, 146 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 3: but I know that would have been quite taxing as well. 147 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 3: And often it's something that we do need to care 148 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 3: for our mental health personally and our own physical health 149 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 3: and put ourselves first. Because you do all this caring 150 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 3: for all the other people, you need to remember yourself 151 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 3: as well. 152 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, it took me about four years to realize that. 153 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 3: Well, I'm glad it was only four. That doesn't mean 154 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 3: you can't do that type of work. It's just I 155 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: think that a lot of people who work in those 156 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 3: areas are so selfless and they are so kind that 157 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 3: it's always about other people and never about them. So 158 00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 3: if you work in that industry and you resonate with that, 159 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 3: please care for yourself because you can't pull from an 160 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 3: empty cup. So next question is money dirist, what is 161 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 3: your big money. 162 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 4: Goal goal or goals goal? 163 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 3: Sorry, what are your big money goals? 164 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 4: I've got too many I have. I placed a lot 165 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 4: of emphasis on goals, and I'm for meeting them. I 166 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 4: guess that's how I've got so far to this point. 167 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 4: But at the moment it's mainly just like paying extra 168 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 4: off the mortgage and really building up my investment portfolio. 169 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 4: I do want financial freedom, and I do want the 170 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 4: option to retire early. So mm hmm, that's the big goal. 171 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, the money diarist we spoke to just 172 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 3: before you said that she also wanted to retire earlier. 173 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 3: Money Dirives, could you tell us what that means though? 174 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 3: What does retire early mean to you? 175 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 4: For me, it's just I know a lot of people 176 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 4: talk about like fu money and stuff like that when 177 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 4: it comes to like if you need to leave your 178 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 4: job or just having the freedom to be able to 179 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 4: do that. Yeah, So for me, it's like not necessarily 180 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 4: retiring early, but having the option to or even going 181 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 4: to part time and doing more travel or more volunteering things. 182 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 3: Like that, and just yeah, so just the freedom. So 183 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 3: it's not necessarily a number for you. It's not all right, 184 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 3: well I want to retire by fifty, it's I want 185 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 3: more financial freedom in my life to make the decisions 186 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 3: along the journey. Would that be about right? 187 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 4: Yeah? Absolutely. 188 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 3: I love that. I love asking people what that actually means, 189 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 3: because I think that we have in our head that 190 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 3: retirements in age, and in our head retirement is like, oh, 191 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 3: it's sixty five, when in reality, retirement's actually a financial situation. 192 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 3: It's a situation in which you can make more flexible decisions. 193 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: And for a lot of people, they just assume that 194 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 3: means that you don't work at all, whereas some people like, no, no, no, 195 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 3: I just want more flexibility to do the things that 196 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 3: I love and the things that I'm passionate about. And 197 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: I think we really need to reframe what retirement looks 198 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 3: like like was too many times we just think it's 199 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 3: for people who are a bit older than us, when 200 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 3: in reality you can start working towards a level of 201 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 3: financial freedom yourself. I don't know, I just think we 202 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 3: should reframe that. Next question for you though, is do 203 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 3: you currently have any investments? If so, what are they? 204 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 4: I do, So, I'd just like to start with SUPER. 205 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 4: I do have SUPER, Yeah I should haven't. Luckily, I 206 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 4: love that it's going up as well, like the minimum 207 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 4: contributions and stuff. So there's about I think that's about 208 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 4: forty three thousand at the moment. 209 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 3: Oh and how old were you money, diarist, I'm twenty five. 210 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 3: That is a very good amount of money in superannuation 211 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 3: for your age. Why have you got so much in 212 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 3: comparison to the average bear. 213 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 4: I don't know, because I actually haven't started contributing extra yet, 214 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 4: just because I was saving for my house. So I 215 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 4: kind of put that on the background. I was like, oh, 216 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 4: I'll do it after I after that's done kind of thing. 217 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 3: Doesn't sound like it was on the back burner at all. 218 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 3: How old were you when you got your first job? 219 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. I think it 220 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 4: was because I started working early. I mean fourteen and 221 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 4: nine months. I was like, yeah, bfc, that's first job. 222 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, those your their days. But when you 223 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 3: start working really early, you do start contributing to SUPER 224 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 3: if you meet the requirements and the earlier you start contributing, 225 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 3: the more time it has to compound. So it kind 226 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 3: of makes sense that if you were one of those 227 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 3: people that started really early, you would actually be in 228 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 3: for a better innings when it comes to SUPER. And 229 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 3: obviously this is personal, but my partner Steve, I remember 230 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: looking at his super and being like, what how did 231 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 3: you do this? Like you are so young And it 232 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: was just because he worked so much from such a 233 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 3: young age, and I was like, oh, you really were 234 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 3: a hustler from the start. So it's not necessarily about 235 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 3: having to make contributions in addition to your SUPER. It's 236 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 3: actually sometimes you got the lucky end of the stick 237 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 3: and started working early, and you might not have known 238 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 3: the prominen so of it then, but you sure do now. 239 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. So I've also got some shares outside of that, 240 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 4: so ETFs in an LS, So there's about fourteen thousand, 241 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 4: just over fourteen thousand in my accounts at the moment 242 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 4: there too. But yeah, like I said before, one of 243 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 4: my goals is to really build that up, I mean 244 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 4: compound interest. Ye. 245 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: But yeah, I sound like a broken record sometimes, but 246 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 3: I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry at all. 247 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 4: Good. 248 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,679 Speaker 3: Next question money diris do you currently have any debts? 249 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: So no, I mean, I think it's part of my 250 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 4: upbringing and scarcity mindset type. I paid all my UNI upfront. 251 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 4: I know that you speak a lot about hex debts 252 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 4: and good debts versus bad debts, but I guess my 253 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 4: values are more aligned to just not having any because 254 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 4: I still feel the stress or would feel the stress 255 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 4: if I did have a hex. And yeah, so it's 256 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 4: pretty much just the house. 257 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 3: So how much of a mortgage have you got on 258 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: the house. 259 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 4: I have a big, big one for my income, so 260 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 4: at the moment, I think it's currently three hundred and 261 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 4: seventy thousand. 262 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: That's so exciting though, that you've secured a mortgage like 263 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 3: that all on your own and you're killing it. The 264 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 3: next question though, is what does that mean for your 265 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 3: cash flow? So, if you've got a mortgage, how much 266 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 3: you're paying each and every single month. 267 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 4: Yes, so I'm like my menor and payments are pretty 268 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 4: much what I was paying in rent. So that's really cool. 269 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 3: That is very cool. 270 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 4: Because I guess it just made it worth it for 271 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 4: me in the current market, seems like a big risk 272 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 4: to buy in at such a high high prices, but yeah, 273 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 4: just kind of weight of all the all the extra 274 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 4: fees and stuff. So at the moment i'm putting in 275 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 4: about it gets like maybe four hundred to fortnight extra. 276 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 3: Oh, epic congratulations. I feel like that is no mean feet, 277 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 3: it's a little bit tired. 278 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 4: I'm my current budget. 279 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 3: Next question, it's not on the list, though, I want 280 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 3: to know how much your purchase price was and how 281 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 3: much of a deposit you were able to save. 282 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 4: Yes, awesome, asking the good questions. 283 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 3: I'm trying. I'm literally being so prevy. I'm like, I 284 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 3: don't mean to overstep the line, but like, if you've 285 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 3: got a mortgage, please tell us. I feel like property 286 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 3: at the moment is such a hot topic, and there 287 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 3: are so many of us that are feeling really disenchanted 288 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: with the whole journey because property is performing crazily. But 289 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 3: I just want to know because it's so achievable if 290 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 3: you put your mind to it. And I know that 291 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 3: for so many people they'll have their heads in the 292 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 3: sand or they'll say, look, it's just never going to 293 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 3: happen to me, or it's not going to be possible. 294 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 3: But you've obviously been through a lot, and we'll get 295 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 3: into that later. But how much of a deposit did 296 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 3: you say? How did you do it? How did you 297 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 3: get into your first place? 298 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 4: Yep, so I had a fifty thousand dollars deposit. I 299 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 4: paid my extra fees on top of that as well, 300 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 4: but I did pay all am I because it was 301 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 4: only about ten percent, So I I bought it for. 302 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: A unit in the Peninsula, so yes, I'm from the peninsula, goodbye. 303 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 4: So it was four hundred and twenty nine thousand. So yeah, 304 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 4: I guess my mortgage came in at like about I 305 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 4: think it was three eighty two or something when they 306 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 4: all settled and everything. I had put in a lot 307 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 4: of money previously in a land that I had bought 308 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 4: with my partner, so we were like, in a year 309 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 4: and a half we'd paid down like eighty thousand, so 310 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 4: there was only fifty thousand left on that way. Yeah, 311 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 4: so when we sold, we got really lucky because normally 312 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 4: land doesn't really go up that much, and it was 313 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 4: regional as well. But we're really lucky to sell, and 314 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 4: I like, I just got back what I put in, 315 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 4: so it wasn't any extra, but. 316 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 3: We're really it was a bit of a break even. 317 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: So they didn't end up losing anything. That's a nice outcome. 318 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, So that's that's pretty much where my deposit came from. 319 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 4: So I mean, even if I didn't hadn't have bought 320 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 4: the land, I would have. 321 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: Been I would have had that in amazing. So yeah, 322 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 3: very cool. All right, money dirist before I ask too 323 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 3: many more pervic questions. The next question is do you 324 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 3: currently use shop Back? 325 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 4: No? I don't. 326 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: Who is she? 327 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 4: Because every podcast I listened to pretty much for the 328 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 4: last couple of months, every day I'm like, no, I'm 329 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 4: going to do it after work, Like I'll just download 330 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 4: it on the computer and I'll use it. But I'm 331 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 4: not very much of a spender either're online. I really 332 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 4: try to withhold as much as I can with that 333 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 4: unless I really need something. 334 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 3: So I feel like that is a very fine way 335 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 3: to live. That's still a good money habit. Speaking of 336 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 3: good money habits, what is your best money habit? 337 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 4: So I actually have been thinking about this because I've 338 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 4: really struggled and I don't know why. It sounds really bad, 339 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 4: but I was talking to my best friend last night 340 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 4: about this and she helped she a lot. So basically, 341 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 4: I think my most money have it is setting achievable 342 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 4: goals and following through, Like I'm a real stickler for goals, 343 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 4: but making sure that they're attainable. Like obviously, if you 344 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 4: set something that you just can't follow through on, like, 345 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 4: you're going to feel pretty crappy and you're not going 346 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 4: to feel accomplished with that. So in saying that, like, 347 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 4: it's also that's kind of carried me through in terms 348 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,239 Speaker 4: of like not getting into debt and things like that 349 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,479 Speaker 4: as well. So I think it's really important to have 350 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 4: those little goals and make them achievable. 351 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 3: I couldn't agree more. But my next follow up question 352 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 3: is how do you personally set attainable goals? Like what 353 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 3: does that mean to you? What's that process look like? 354 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 3: How do we learn from you? 355 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 4: It's probably actually really bad advice personally, because I don't 356 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 4: that's all. 357 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 3: Right, we take all advice in this house. 358 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 4: But normally, like if it's to do with money, say, 359 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 4: for example, like I got a no Fresco built because 360 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 4: that was such a big thing for me, and I 361 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 4: had to compromise a lot on stuff where I bought, 362 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 4: so I was like, no, I need enough Fresco, So 363 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 4: I had Okay, I said, look, this is a goal, 364 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 4: I still want to keep adding more to the mortgage. 365 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 4: How am I going to make this work? So I 366 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 4: looked at my budget and I'm like, okay, well there's 367 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 4: not a lot. There's not a lot of wigger room here. 368 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 4: But I basically I just broke it down and was like, okay, 369 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 4: well what can I afford each week? And how long 370 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 4: is this going to take to pay back? Because I 371 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 4: did use my savings, but I want to rebuild that 372 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 4: because it's really important to me. 373 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 374 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 4: So yeah, I just broke it down and I was like, okay, 375 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 4: this is eight months. I'll get it done now and 376 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 4: then in eight months i'll have that money back. Or 377 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 4: I could have if I didn't have that money in 378 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 4: the budget, I would have been like, oh well, I 379 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,120 Speaker 4: just wait eight months and then I'll get it done. 380 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 3: I feel like that is actually a process. Though, my 381 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 3: friend you're saying, oh, I don't really have one, but 382 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 3: then you're like, oh, yes, so I know. I said 383 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 3: I don't have one. But I broke it down and 384 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 3: then I worked out how many months I had, and 385 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 3: I worked backwards like okay, you're a goal setting queens 386 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 3: just by default, that's fine, all right? Next question complete 387 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 3: pivot what is your worst money habit? 388 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 4: So I guess it's like the opposite to my best 389 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 4: in a way, Like I am very very harsh on 390 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,719 Speaker 4: myself if things have to change, and I'm not very 391 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 4: lenient when it comes to my goals. So if life 392 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 4: circum sets are change, for example, like my income getting smaller, 393 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 4: I was just in my head saying, no, nothing's going 394 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 4: to be able to give, Like my goals are too strong. 395 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 4: I couldn't decide, you know, okay, well, what is actually 396 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 4: the thing that's going to have to take precedence here. 397 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 4: I think that we also don't really talk about that enough. 398 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 4: Is that being so strong in your financial goals as 399 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 4: well can also lead to stress, and it can also 400 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 4: feel like a burden as well. So I'm really trying 401 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 4: to work on that inner stuff with being okay with 402 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 4: where I'm at and not being so harsh and critical 403 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 4: of where I want to go. 404 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 3: I think that that is a really good goal, and 405 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 3: it's something that so many of us struggle with. I 406 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 3: actually saw something online, so I can't take credit for this, 407 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 3: but someone online, and I think it was like one 408 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 3: of those text inspirational posts. I think I reposted it, 409 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 3: but sometimes these things really resonate with me and I'm like, 410 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 3: oh my gosh. But it essentially said, if someone was 411 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 3: as critical of me as I am of me, I 412 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 3: wouldn't want to spend an hour with that person. But 413 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 3: I have to spend twenty four hours a day with myself, 414 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 3: so I probably should learn to be a little bit 415 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 3: less critical. And that's true, like if you were, if 416 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: you were super critical of me for even an hour, 417 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to have anything to do with you. 418 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 3: Why are we so critical of ourselves? Like we have 419 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 3: to live with ourselves, So I think that it's really 420 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 3: important to realize that, but then also really work on that, 421 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 3: because when you're self critical, it's not impacting anybody else 422 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 3: but you. Negatively, it serves absolutely no purpose, absolutely no benefit. 423 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 3: And being kind to yourself it's exactly the same. It 424 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 3: doesn't impact anybody else but you, but in the best 425 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 3: of ways, it is so positive and that will then 426 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,959 Speaker 3: radiate out of you, and I love that, so hopefully 427 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 3: that's a nice way to wrap a worst money habit. 428 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 3: Last question before we go to a quick break though 429 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 3: money diarist. If we forced you to give your money 430 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 3: habits a grade, what would you grade them. 431 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 4: I hate to be the stereo ti for a response, 432 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 4: but I would probably say an A due to. 433 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 3: Time that is not stereotypical. I love when people back themselves. 434 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, my takeaway habits have been just off the rails, 435 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 4: and especially with the lockdowns, I'm like, I can't do anything, 436 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 4: so I'll just order in cooking either. 437 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 3: That's a fair We're living within our values. 438 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 4: And also, yeah, just my income, like raising my income 439 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 4: as well, I think would really change that as well. 440 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 3: I agree, but I think you're doing epically as you are. 441 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 3: So we'll head to quick break and right after that, 442 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 3: I want to deep dive more into money stories. All right, 443 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 3: we are back and money diarist. I want to know 444 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 3: a little bit more about your background and your money 445 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 3: story and how you've really been working on that and 446 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 3: how that's impacted you as an adult. You've obviously completely 447 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 3: changed your personal situation. You've gone from living paycheck to 448 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 3: paycheck and having food stamps and you know, growing up 449 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 3: in a world where money was really frugal. Does that 450 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 3: still impact you day to day and if so, how 451 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 3: and how do you overcome that? 452 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 4: Yeah? So, I mean it was a big factor and 453 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 4: why I wanted to buy a house. I mean, it's 454 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 4: just that you know you've got a roof over your head. 455 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 4: You know you've got that security. I mean, it's one 456 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 4: of the biggest needs for a human really, So I've 457 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 4: really carried that through. But I feel like it's been 458 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 4: in a really positive way as well. And I have 459 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 4: my mom to thank for that in the sense of 460 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:03,199 Speaker 4: it's driven me and it's it's helped me create my 461 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 4: goals and work towards those things because I don't want 462 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 4: to have that struggle and I don't want others to 463 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 4: have that struggle either. But yeah, it's also cutting slack 464 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 4: as well, when you're too driven and you're like, okay, 465 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 4: well you can actually take a bit of a break now, 466 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 4: like you're okay, you're not compromised or anything. 467 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 3: Do you find that you put a lot of pressure 468 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 3: on yourself because you have worked so hard to change it. 469 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 3: So when you have an inkling of you know, maybe 470 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 3: a not so good habit creeping in, you're maybe a 471 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: little bit extra harsh on yourself. Then everybody else might be. 472 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I think we hear it all the time, 473 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 4: like life events happen, and if even just a little 474 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 4: thing in someone's life can completely change their situation financially. 475 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, And how's your mum doing now? I want 476 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 3: to know how that's going. Like you said that her 477 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 3: money story wasn't great. What's she up to? 478 00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 4: She's still a massive hoarder, like kind of drutings like 479 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 4: I don't know if you've been extreme hoarders, but like 480 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 4: that's where we're at. But somehow this woman is a 481 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 4: legend and she has a really high income at the moment, 482 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 4: so she's paying down her mortgage. I'm trying to convince 483 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 4: her to get it done before retirement because she's getting 484 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 4: to that age. Yes, and she hasn't thought about it 485 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 4: because there's everyone, Oh, you know, that's forever away, that's 486 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 4: ages away, and then it comes up and it's right there. 487 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 4: So yeah, she's doing a lot better. 488 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 3: I'm actually really interested in something you just said. And 489 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 3: you said she's actually a hoarder, and that is something 490 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 3: that is so common when you have grown up in poverty, 491 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 3: because people who don't have the privilege of money don't 492 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 3: actually have the privilege of being able to throw things away, 493 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 3: and often that then manifests itself. Once you do have 494 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 3: a higher income and you do have financial security in 495 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 3: having that feeling of wanting to hold on and not 496 00:24:58,119 --> 00:24:59,959 Speaker 3: wanting to let go of things because maybe one day 497 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 3: I need them, or maybe one day someone else will 498 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 3: need them, or I'm trying to care for these things, 499 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 3: or I've worked so hard for these things. Do you 500 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 3: think that creaks into your money story at all? In 501 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 3: any which way? 502 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 4: Of course? 503 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 3: How does that manifest for you? 504 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 4: I just I am a little bit the opposite. I 505 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 4: don't like clutter. I don't like things in the house 506 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 4: unless it's super sentimental to me, which a lot of 507 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 4: things aren't. I have a little small keepsake things that do. 508 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 4: But yeah, I just don't like stuff, and it stresses 509 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 4: me out more having too much stuff. So I guess 510 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 4: that also helps in terms of financial goals because I'm 511 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 4: not buying materialistic things all the time and things that 512 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 4: I don't need. I mean, even my friends, like I've 513 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 4: bought a phone three years ago for like two hundred 514 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 4: dollars and everyone was like, why do you get a 515 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 4: new phone now? Because it doesn't work properly and I 516 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 4: dropped it has like it's one of those generic cracked 517 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 4: everywhere screens, and like it's fine, it still works, Like 518 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 4: I don't need to buy a new one. It's just 519 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 4: the same thing. It works fine. Thanks though, So it's yeah, 520 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 4: and I'm trying to work around that a bit more 521 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 4: like the more comfortable I get financially as well, I 522 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 4: think the more I can kind of relax a little 523 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 4: bit and I can get things that I want and 524 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 4: not have to worry as much. But yeah, i'd say 525 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,959 Speaker 4: that it definitely had an impact on me in that sense. 526 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, that absolutely makes sense. So when we talk 527 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 3: about money stories and how that works, and you know, 528 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: before you mentioned that you sold some land with I'm 529 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 3: assuming an ex partner, how did that happen and how 530 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 3: did you protect yourself through that? So obviously you never 531 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 3: buy land with someone if you don't think it's going 532 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 3: to be lasting, and then it obviously didn't. What was 533 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 3: the situation there and how did you deal financially through that? 534 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, so, I mean it's quite scary. I was with 535 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 4: my ex for nearly five years, so we we were 536 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 4: together four years when we bought the land. We thought 537 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 4: it was long term. Obviously the time, as everyone, I 538 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 4: didn't get like any sort of like agreements done up 539 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 4: or anything, because we went into the contract fifty to fifty. 540 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 4: It's actually quite a compromise when I talk about it, 541 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 4: I guess because I had more of a deposit at 542 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 4: the time, so he ended up adding extra to the 543 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 4: mortgage over the year and a half. So it ended 544 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 4: up working out that we were equal, which I wouldn't 545 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 4: recommend because it is quite a risk because if the 546 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 4: contract says fifty to fifty and something goes bad, you 547 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 4: do have the risk of not getting all of your 548 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 4: money back, so to speak. But that's what I did, 549 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 4: and I mean at the time it worked for me. 550 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 4: I got lucky with that. It wasn't a huge summer 551 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 4: money either, so I guess I kind of weighed up 552 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 4: the risk in that sense. So yeah, we ended up 553 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 4: signing contracts to build like I did everything, Like we 554 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 4: picked out everything, like cupboards, like it was all done, signed, locked. 555 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 4: How stressful. Yeah, So this was in October last year, 556 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 4: so October twenty twenty, and about two weeks later, it's like, 557 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 4: I can't do this. There was this childhood trauma that 558 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 4: came up and it just completely like ruined him, like 559 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 4: couldn't cope, Like it was really extreme and it was 560 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 4: horrible what came up for him, and he just wanted 561 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 4: to be back with family. So his family was into 562 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 4: state and with all the lockdowns and everything, he hadn't 563 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 4: seen them in so long, and his mum got really sick. 564 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 4: So I think like that all that affected him and 565 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 4: it was just like, no, I can't do this, so 566 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 4: we've got to get out of it. And I was like, okay, 567 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 4: game planning mode, how are we going to get out 568 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 4: of this safely? Like are we going to get our 569 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 4: money back? Because we paid the deposit for the build 570 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 4: and everything like it was super locked in. Oh my gosh. 571 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 4: So yeah, Luckily it was the right time to sell land, 572 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 4: which just went nuts in the area well every area really, 573 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 4: So yeah, like I said before, we broke even kind 574 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 4: of with all our costs that we put into it 575 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 4: split amicably. I was lucky that, Yeah, he didn't. He 576 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 4: was super chill about it because he knew, like we 577 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 4: had got up to that point, like I was asking, 578 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 4: be you sure, are you sure? Like are you ready? 579 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 4: Like is this okay? And it was like yep, yep, yep, 580 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 4: and then nut. When I saw the land, I was 581 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 4: in a rush and I got in organizational mode and 582 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 4: I was just like, okay, let's get through this the 583 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 4: best we can, yeah, and just sort it out the 584 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 4: best way possible. At the time, I actually wish that 585 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 4: I had to have engaged with my broker because I 586 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 4: didn't think i'd have the borrowing power to buy him. 587 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 3: Out right, You just assumed instead of having the conversation. 588 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 4: Yep, And I was just like nut, get rid of it, Like, 589 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,959 Speaker 4: don't want to deal with that kind of thing. It's 590 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 4: too stressful at the moment. But in hindsight now I 591 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 4: thought it would have been a better idea if I 592 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 4: just had have checked out with my broker and been like, look, 593 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 4: what's my borrowing capacity. Because I didn't actually know my 594 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 4: own what it would be. I just assumed it would 595 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 4: just not be enough. 596 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 3: And do you think that you would have been able 597 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 3: to buy amount if you'd had that conversation. 598 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, so underfoughtunately with all the regional and first home 599 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 4: owner like grants and everything, I would have come out 600 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 4: very very nicely with a brand new house on a 601 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 4: big property. 602 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 3: Oh no, if I had it. 603 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 4: But that's the joys of hindsight. I didn't get any 604 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 4: grants with the unit that I bought. I wasn't able to, 605 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 4: so I think, yeah, it's just kind of having a 606 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 4: think about it and just engaging the banks or the 607 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 4: broker and just seeing where you're. 608 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 3: At and just having that conversation. And I know that 609 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 3: so many people are like no, like I know it's 610 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 3: not possible, but it might be. So have the conversation, 611 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 3: and I promise you your broker is going to be 612 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 3: able to talk to you about that situation and talk 613 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 3: to you about what is possible. I just, oh, I 614 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 3: wish you had. But at the same time, I'm a 615 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: genuine believer that everything works out for the best, and 616 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 3: everything works out for a reason, and I am sure 617 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 3: that there is a reason that didn't work out, and 618 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 3: that you were in your little unit all by yourself 619 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 3: for good reason. So you went from being so certain 620 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 3: on everything to one day finding out that maybe this 621 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 3: wasn't going to work out and he was over and out. 622 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 3: And it sounds like you guys were really amicable and 623 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 3: it wasn't something that you guys could have. You know, 624 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 3: it wasn't like he cheated on you and it was 625 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 3: all savage. It was a pretty shitty situation. It sounds like, 626 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 3: if we're being honest, well, I mean, it's. 627 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 4: Like I probably forgot to mention like he had been 628 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 4: struggling with mental health pretty much the whole time I 629 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 4: was with him, So I guess in that sense, like 630 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 4: it wasn't a huge shock, right, it was just what happened, 631 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 4: I guess, and him leaving because it was always like, no, 632 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 4: we'll just we'll work this out together, like yeah, and 633 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 4: then it kind of changed. 634 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 3: And then it just didn't work out. And that's so okay. 635 00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 3: But that is one of the reasons why going into 636 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,959 Speaker 3: a really big purchase with somebody else, you have really 637 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 3: clear exit guidelines. And I'm not saying this because I'm 638 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 3: so negative about relationships, but well, what happens if this 639 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 3: doesn't work out? Are we're going to keep it, We're 640 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 3: going to own it together, or are we going to 641 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 3: sell it? Are we going to wait until the market recovers? 642 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 3: Like what if the market wasn't doing well when he said, oh, 643 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 3: I want out, and you both would have lost a 644 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 3: significant amount of money. It could have been a not 645 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 3: so good outcome for both of you. Luckily it wasn't, 646 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 3: but it could have been quite negative. So I think 647 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 3: it's so important that if you're in a relationship, you 648 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 3: have these conversations before it happens. Thankfully, it's all sorted 649 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 3: out for you money direst and you now our a 650 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 3: fancy little homeowner. You've got your unit, you've got your 651 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 3: our fresco area. What does And it's probably too early 652 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 3: to ask this question, but how are you going to 653 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 3: protect yourself in the event that you get into another 654 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 3: relationship into the future. 655 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I think it's really hard, Like with Australian 656 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 4: legislation and stuff, I mean, factor of relationships, you're kind 657 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 4: of pretty locked in even if you're not married. 658 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: Yes, it's a bit of. 659 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 4: A fear, and I have thought about it a lot. 660 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 4: I mean, I know there's been a lot of mixed 661 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 4: sort of opinions that I that I've found with like 662 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 4: binding financial agreements and things like that. So I'd still 663 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 4: rather put in that money even if it didn't hold 664 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 4: up later on, like at least you had something kind 665 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 4: of thing for that. And also just being like really 666 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 4: aware like when I like, if I do meet someone, 667 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 4: kind of think just being aware of like oh, if 668 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 4: they're staying or if they're paying for things around the house, 669 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 4: like that can all contribute later on and they can 670 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 4: have a stake at that. 671 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 3: I think it's important to have the conversation. And it 672 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 3: doesn't mean that there's a right or a wrong way, 673 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 3: but I think it's just important to have thought about 674 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 3: it because I can completely understand where you're coming from, 675 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 3: because that's your mindset, and you're like, you know what, 676 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 3: that'll work out. I'll do it this way and that way, 677 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 3: and that's so fine.
