You're told to budget better. Work harder. Cut the coffee. But Australians working two incomes are still falling behind. 

So I invited Bish - a currency trader turned Bitcoin educator & entrepreneur, who's spent 14 years inside the machine - to expose what's actually destroying your purchasing power.

Here's what we uncovered:

→ The problem isn't you. It's the money itself. Since 2020, there's been a 60% increase in Aussie dollars printed. You're not getting poorer. Your money is.

→ Inflation isn't 2%. It's whatever they want it to be. When beef prices spike 24%, they just remove beef from the inflation basket and add tofu instead. The real inflation? Look at money supply, not their numbers.

→ Your parents bought homes on one wage. You can't on two. Property, groceries, rent, power - everything costs more every year. That's by design, not bad luck.

→ Central banks are unelected officials deciding your financial future. They print money out of thin air and set interest rates nobody voted for. And somehow that's legal.

→ Bitcoin is the only asset you actually own. Real estate needs a real estate agent. Stocks need the market to open. Bitcoin? You own it 24/7, anywhere in the world. No permission needed.

→ The banks are debanking crypto holders. Bish got kicked off CBA for receiving large transactions. They didn't care when he explained. The decision was already made.

Sit back and enjoy!

Most founders think their business problems are strategy, cash flow, or operations. But Hannah Conkey says the real problem is running in their subconscious. 

So I invited her on this week’s podcast, to expose what's actually sabotaging high-performing leaders. 

Hannah, Founder and CEO of Mind Pilot, is a neuroscience consultant working with venture-backed founders. 

Here's what we uncovered: 

→ Your biggest bottleneck is you. Every founder brings their entire baggage into the business. No strategy fixes self-sabotage. 

→ Smart operators self-sabotage without knowing it. You hit heights, trauma happens, things recede. Then subconsciously you prevent yourself from going back there. You stay stuck. 

→ Stress literally lowers your IQ. Under pressure, cognitive function drops. That bad decision months ago? You were operating with a compromised brain. 

→ Burnout wrecks your judgment, not just your health. The bigger your business, the more decisions required. But if you're burnt out, you're making them with a broken brain. 

→ You say you value one thing, do the opposite. Confirmation bias traps you in limiting stories. You seek evidence to prove your own limitations. 

→ The founder matters more than the business idea. An average founder with self-awareness beats a genius running unconscious patterns. 

→ What got you here won't get you there. The mindset that built $1M won't build $10M. You hit a ceiling and blame the market. 

Really, you're blocking yourself. If you've ever made a decision under pressure and only understood how bad it was months later - this explains exactly why.

The Australian Government lied about tax changes 12 months after the election. So I invited Dave Hughes on the podcast (ex-Labor voter) who finally snapped and started investigating what else they're hiding from Australians: 

And here’s Hughesy’s charge sheet: 

→ Promised no CGT changes before the election, changed it anyway. That's not a policy shift -that's a deliberate lie to voters. It triggered Dave to ask: what else are they hiding? 

→ Billions in illegal tobacco flooding Australia while government looks away. Firebombings, cash leaving in shipping containers, every tobacconist openly breaking the law. But does government crackdown on crime? No. They tax hard-working citizens instead. 

→ NDIS bleeding billions to fraud while genuine users suffer. The amount of theft is extraordinary. Yet government does nothing -they just don't respect the money. 

→ Labour declared war on business (and it's costing Australia). This budget opened Dave's eyes to the real problem: government corruption, waste, and incompetence driving inflation in your grocery bill. 

→ The fix: drastically smaller government. Singapore runs on 15% tax. Australia needs fewer departments, fewer people, more respect for taxpayer money. Whoever wins next needs to be honest with Australians - they're over the bullshit. 

Episode's live now on YouTube and Spotify. Watch before the next election.

I sat down with Hussain Rifai - a guy who's negotiated government-to-government deals across continents, run private equity funds, and built businesses across five countries. He just got brutally honest about what Australia's getting wrong. Here's what he'd do if he became Prime Minister tomorrow: → Tear up the tax system from the bottom up. Not tinkering. Not capital gains tax tweaks. Complete restructure. Then use resource revenues to cut individual tax and drive real buying power back into the economy. → Stop selling our gas dirt cheap. Australia's handing over resources at pennies on the dollar while we struggle to pay rent. He compared it to the Norway model - actually profit from what we own. → The $360 billion submarine question nobody's asking. "Maybe I'm naive," he says, "but I don't understand what we're fighting. We could do 1,000 better things with that money." → Banking regulation is suffocating business investment. Banks are so restricted they only fund property. Meanwhile, actual businesses—the ones that create wealth, not just passive assets - get nothing. → Narrow-mindedness and racism are Australia's biggest problems. He's lived in 5 continents. Australia's the best. But only if we stop being afraid of each other. He's publishing "The Chaos Theorem" next - a memoir about losing a child, building businesses across continents, fighting racism, and the one thing that actually changes your life (spoiler: it's not luck). His message to the Prime Minister: Be brave. Make decisions that are unpopular politically but popular with the people who elected you.

Australian government just decided your life's work should be taxed like a paycheck. And Australians are p*ssed off about it. 

So I invited James Meli, ex-ATO tax lawyer with 20 years experience, to unpack what's actually buried in the latest budget. 

Here’s how the conversation went: 

→ Sold your business after 20 years of grinding? The tax office now treats that payout almost like it's just another wage. Not a reward for the risk. Just more income to tax. 

→ Family trusts - the thing your accountant set up to protect what you've built - just got gutted. James called it a sledgehammer to crack a walnut. 

→ There's $15 billion in "decisions made but not yet announced" hiding in the budget. Nobody knows what that means yet. Not even James. That's the part that should worry you most. 

→ Thinking about leaving Australia one day? There's an exit tax waiting for you on the way out - and most people have no idea it exists.
