Finding the Balance between Lifestyle and Long Term Goals
How can you find the right balance between enjoying life today, and having that wonderful lifestyle, versus the delayed gratification of saving and investing to achieve bigger, long-term goals? That’s what we’ll explore in this week's Financial Autonomy podcast.   [Website] [Disclaimer]

Tax Implication Upon Receiving an Inheritance
One of the most common reasons for a new client joining us here at Guidance is due to the receipt of an inheritance, whether a traditional one upon the passing of a close family member, or increasingly frequently, an early inheritance where the family member has determined that they have assets in excess of their needs and wish to see their loved ones enjoy the gift during their lifetime.   [Disclaimer] [Website]

How Do Alternative Investments Like Wine and Whisky Fit Into a Portfolio?
We're all familiar with traditional investments - stocks, property, term deposits. But there is a whole other universe of investments that get broadly bracketed together as "Alternative" investments. Alternatives could be classic cars, collectibles like guitars, stamps or coins, cryptos, futures funds, private equity, and precious metals. The rationale is diversification, but even more important than diversification is correlation of returns, the idea being that alternative investments operate on different cycles to your other investments. In this episode I chat with Maxwell Nee from UK based Oneo Group about investing in wine and whisky. Important to highlight that our guest represents a company that is not registered or licensed in Australia. The information shared in this podcast is not advice and in no way should it be interpreted that Paul recommends or endorses this company.

The new year has arrived, you’re re-charged, it’s time to release the hand brake and get moving!

What's a Reasonable Price to Pay For an Investment Property?
This week's episode is inspired by a real life conundrum that my wife and I are currently facing. With reports of property prices falling we've been wondering whether there might be an opportunity to pick up an investment property at an attractive point in the cycle. The title of this week’s episode is precisely the issue we have been tossing around, namely what is a reasonable price to pay for an investment property?   [Disclaimer] [Website]

Why is Record Low Unemployment a Bad Thing? What is Driving Markets Right Now?
Last week in one of our progress meetings I was asked by a client a very sensible question “why is record-low unemployment a bad thing?” His question arose from a news report that was attempting to explain the economic challenges currently faced and the concerns for 2023 and beyond. One of the explanations offered by the journalist was this “problem” of record low unemployment. But as my client observed, surely everyone having a job is a good thing. A totally reasonable assumption to make. So what's going on?   [Disclaimer] [Website]

How to Manage Sequencing Risk
If we’re asked what sort of return should be expected from an investment over the long run the tendency is to rely on the long term average, or perhaps lean on the conservative side and round down a percent or two. The reality however is that from one year to the next there is a high level of variability in returns. Sure, given long enough they may well deliver that long term average that you see published, but in any given year your actual outcome can be vastly different, both positive and negative. Sequencing risk recognises this natural variability in returns year by year.   [Disclaimer] [Website]

Exploring the Intersection of Psychology and Money with Psychologist Parris Davenport
Every major financial event is also a major psychological event. When you buy a home, change job or career, receive an inheritance, or retire.

What Can We Learn From Past Market Downturns?
I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you that investment markets around the world have been experiencing challenging times over the past year. Shares, bonds, and property, everything is down and there have been few places to hide. So this week I wanted to consider what we could learn from past market declines. What can we take away to help us not only get through this current period, but perhaps even take advantage of the opportunities that might present. [Disclaimer]

For over 6 years now I've released weekly podcasts and emails exploring the idea of Financial Autonomy and gaining choice.
