Slaying Some Sacred Cows
Are all properties guaranteed to rise in value? Is a Self Managed Super Fund always the smarter choice? In this episode of Financial Autonomy, Paul tackles two of the most persistent myths in personal finance and reveal the hidden risks that can cost you dearly. From the pitfalls of off-the-plan property purchases to the real costs (and responsibilities) of managing your own super, we’ll cut through the noise and give you the perspective you need to protect your wealth. If you’ve ever been told “property never loses value” or “SMSFs always outperform,” this is the episode you can’t afford to miss. Subscribe to our weekly GainingCHOICE email General advice disclaimer

The Link Between Interest Rates and the Stock Market
Interest rates are falling for the first time in years — good news for borrowers, but a big question mark for savers. More importantly, what does this shift mean for the stock market and your investments? In this episode, we break down how interest rate moves ripple through the economy, influence business profits, shape investor behaviour, and ultimately impact your super and savings. Join us as we explore what these changes could mean for investors in the months ahead. Subscribe to our weekly GainingCHOICE email General advice disclaimer

Plenty of books, podcasts and blogs focus on building wealth – and that’s great, as far as it goes. But focusing just on wealth misses the point.
I believe what most of us actually want is to have choice.
Choice in how much time we give to income-producing activities.
Choice about what those income-producing activities are.
Choice about where we live.
Choice about when we retire.
Choice about the ways we use our money to produce happiness.
In the Financial Autonomy podcast, I explore the different ways you can gain choice - from investing in stocks to becoming self-employed, starting a side hustle, or buying an investment property. I share learnings I've gained working with clients for over 20 years as a Certified Financial Planner, and interview others with interesting insights or experiences in gaining choice in life.
