How do you make sure your capital actually works for you—and doesn't just sit idle or worse, lose value? This episode takes a realistic look at opportunity cost, comparing the potential of real estate against dividend-paying stocks, fixed deposits, and other asset classes. It challenges the assumption that property always performs, and instead asks: when does it truly outperform?   Melvin Lim from PropertyLimBrothers explores whether a $500,000 paper margin gain is still achievable in the current market, and what strategies can make it possible. He breaks down common traps like stagnating assets, explains the impact of lease decay, and shares how quadrant-based property selection can change your long-term results. Through examples like penthouse plays and timing your asset exits, this is a strategic guide to deploying capital with intention.   If you're rethinking where to invest in 2025 or comparing real estate to other vehicles, this discussion offers grounded, practical insight.   00:00 Hook (Opportunity Cost of Investing) 00:17 Intro 00:35 $500K Quantum paper margin gain 01:59 Main Title = "Is $500K still possible?" 02:06 4 Classes of Prosperity Investing 07:17 4 Types of properties 08:44 Imagine your property Stagnates 11:00 Strategy 1: Go Big or Go Home 23:58 Invested for Buyers - Rio vista 3+Study penthouse 27:03 Strategy 2: Go Stronger but be Careful of the Exit Quantum 33:47 Sneak Peek of Episode 28 33:58 Outro

If you want a better year as an investor — and a better life overall — it starts with reconnecting to your “why.” In this re-released but timeless episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin steps away from market noise and strategy talk to focus on something far more powerful: intentional living. This episode is a reminder that smart property investing isn’t just about assets and returns — it’s about designing a life worth living, then using property as the vehicle to get you there. Bushy walks listeners through why regular reflection matters, especially for investors who want clarity, direction, and momentum. Drawing on insights from psychology and years of experience, he explains why hearing — and revisiting — foundational truths is essential for long-term success. To help bring clarity to your goals and values, Bushy introduces seven simple but confronting questions designed to uncover: What truly matters to you How you measure success and happiness The kind of life you actually want to live What’s on your bucket list — and why it’s still waiting This isn’t theory. It’s a practical reset you can revisit every year to realign your investing decisions with the life you’re trying to build. Take Action Bushy’s challenge is simple but powerful: Write down your perfect day. Putting it on paper helps embed it into your unconscious mind — and sharing it introduces accountability, making you far more likely to follow through. If you’re willing to take that step, email your perfect day to hello@khgroup.com.au. As a thank you, Bushy will send you a complimentary copy of his award-winning book, Get Invested.

Niels and Cem reflect on a year marked by concentration, confidence, and growing structural fragility beneath calm markets. They examine extreme positioning, record low cash levels, and the quiet dominance of reflexive flows over fundamentals. Cem challenges common readings of volatility, explains where real fear hides in options markets, and outlines why tail exposure becomes critical late in cycles. The discussion broadens into portfolio construction, questioning the legacy of 60/40 investing and the illusion of diversification built during falling-rate decades. Grounded in history, market structure, and political cycles, this conversation offers a disciplined framework for navigating regimes where leverage, policy, and inequality quietly redefine risk.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Cem on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Introduction to the Systematic Investor Series00:49 - Geopolitical tensions beneath the surface of markets02:07 - Extreme bullish sentiment and record low cash levels04:12 - Margin use, positioning, and why this setup is fragile06:07 - Why the VIX fails as a true fear indicator11:48 - Buffett's concentration and risk management through quality16:27 - Leverage, Sharpe ratios, and misunderstood diversification21:02 - Trend following performance and late year positioning23:48 - Positioning, reflexivity, and market microstructure28:25 - Volatility traps and convexity before stress events31:06...

Is it smarter to buy property or build it in today’s market? The answer depends less on the headlines and more on which lane you should be running in right now. In this re-released 'Sunday Session' conversation, Bushy Martin sits down with good mate Rob Flux from the Property Developer Network for a friendly but insightful sparring match: invest vs develop, buy vs build. Rob flies the flag for developers. Bushy holds the investor line. Together, they unpack when each strategy works, when it doesn’t, and how to work out where you fit at this stage of the property cycle. You’ll hear the real pros and cons of investing versus development, how the numbers shift as build costs and interest rates move, and a practical Strategy GPS (or Nonagon) you can use to assess your own situation — without emotion or hype. This episode is especially relevant right now, as parts of the market reach a point where building new or doing small development can stack up just as well — or better — than buying existing property on cost and cashflow. In this episode, Bushy and Rob cover: Why investing and developing are two completely different games How buy-and-hold uses time and compounding, while development manufactures equity through process and execution When build costs and interest rates tilt the equation toward development How to use the Strategy GPS / Nonagon to choose between investing, developing — or a hybrid of both Why most time-poor Aussies are better off building strong investment foundations first How community, education and experienced support (like Property Developer Network and Property Hub) dramatically reduce mistakes and accelerate progress Whether you’re an experienced investor wondering if it’s time to step into development — or just trying to decide which lane makes sense for your life right now — this episode will help you think strategically, not emotionally, about your next move.

Bank of Ireland has invested over €370m in its Retail Ireland division over its current threeyear strategic cycle (2023 - 2025). The investment spans fraud protection, technology and telephony, mortgage services, App investment, payments and CRM. A number of first-to-market products and services launched during that time, including EcoSaver - mortgage rates based on BER; Smart Start - current account for children/young teens; 'Coming to Ireland' service - customers can apply for their current account 45 days before moving to Ireland. 2,500 consumers across 120 countries have applied for a current account through the Coming to Ireland service since its launch in April. The Bank also recently launched a new lending product to support homeowners trading down and drive better use of existing housing stock in the market. Bank of Ireland's Retail Ireland division made significant headway over the period, driven by investment and innovation, improved customer experiences and market leadership across key products. This included the largest single investment the Bank has ever made in enhanced customer service systems and technology for frontline colleagues. Susan Russell, Chief Executive Retail Ireland, Bank of Ireland said: "As part of our strategy, we launched a completely new type of mortgage that rewards customers for improving the energy efficiency of their homes, helping us become Ireland's number one mortgage provider. Addressing the challenges faced by homeowners who need a property better suited to their needs, we announced a new lending product to support people trading down. And we're providing tailored products for farmers, young people, and those returning or relocating to Ireland. "We've also invested in our branches and contact centres and are rolling out a brand-new ATM fleet across the island. And through strategic deployment of new technology and AI, we're serving customers faster, protecting them better from fraud, and enabling payments across Europe in seconds. "Over the past three years, we've focused on building stronger relationships by listening more closely and responding for customers in meaningful ways. We've delivered a simpler business by removing friction and making everyday banking faster and more intuitive. And we're building a truly sustainable company, one that is inclusive, responsible and future-ready. This journey is far from over, but we're proud of how far we've come and very excited about what lies ahead." Retail Ireland delivery against strategy: Product and service innovation: Announced new lending product to support homeowners trading down and drive better use of housing stock in the market. Launched innovative products including EcoSaver (mortgage rates based on BER) and Smart Start (current account for children/young teens). New 'Coming to Ireland' service allows customers to apply for their current account 45 days in advance Customer service investment and transformation: The Bank's largest single investment in enhanced customer service systems and technology for frontline colleagues. Improved telephony and CRM systems = faster customer service. 'Single view' of the customer at the touch of a button. More services available 24/7, voice biometrics improving security and efficiency.

In this episode of the Scottish Property Podcast, Nick and Steven sit down with Clark Adam, a 69-year-old property investor with one of the most fascinating life stories ever featured on the show. From growing up as a self-confessed “Ned” in Glasgow's Cardonald, to joining the army at 15, to spending 25 years overseas protecting UK diplomats in some of the world's most dangerous countries — Clark's journey is anything but ordinary.After realising his pensions wouldn't cover retirement, Clark began investing in buy-to-lets in 2008. Fast forward to today, he owns a high-cashflow portfolio in Montrose, earns close to £10,000 per month, and is part of an elite property group where only investors netting over £100k annually are allowed in. His favourite strategies now include serviced accommodation, long-term corporate lets, purchase with delayed completion, and upcoming moves into M&A and hotels.This episode is packed with wisdom, wild stories, and truly unique insights into risk, discipline, and building wealth later in life.

If you think 2025 was a property boom, you’ve been lied to. Prices did rise — but not because Australia suddenly got richer, smarter or more confident. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin dismantles the popular boom narrative and explains why 2025 was really a policy-driven bottleneck that quietly rewarded a small group of prepared investors — while leaving many others exposed. Bushy breaks down how record-low listings, decade-low construction, surging migration and government-engineered price bands combined to create intense pressure in very specific parts of the market. The result? Some Australians made a year’s wage in equity without fanfare, while others chased hotspots, followed influencers, and overpaid for the wrong property in the wrong location — often without realising it yet. In this solo episode, Bushy reveals the three real forces that pushed prices higher even as affordability hit rock bottom, why 2025 was never an “equal boom”, and how national policy settings funnelled buyers into the same narrow price band — creating artificial competition in so-called “affordable” markets. He also revisits his proven 3 I’s (Infrastructure, Incomes, Industry) and 3 P’s (People, Property, Position) framework, showing why fundamentals — not FOMO — explained where growth actually occurred. Most importantly, Bushy outlines why strategy must come before location, and why borderless analysis paired with strong local execution is the smarter way to invest. Stick with Bushy to the end and you’ll walk away with a clear, practical three-step checklist you can use before buying anything in 2026 — because next year isn’t about prediction, it’s about positioning. This episode is essential listening for investors who want to live by design, not by default.

Australian property investors are being misled by headlines - here’s why location, not media noise, will determine who wins in 2025. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin sits down with long-time favourite and one of Australia’s most respected property research analysts, Terry Ryder, founder of Hotspotting and author of Why Property Values Rise. Together they cut through the noise to reveal what really drives sustainable property growth - and why most investors never build the portfolio they dream of. Terry unpacks why 70–80% of value growth comes down to local area selection, not the property itself, and why treating Australia as “one market” is lazy and dangerous. He explains how $900B+ of infrastructure is reshaping jobs, incomes and housing demand across thousands of micro-markets - and why forward-looking indicators matter far more than backward-looking stats. From the rise of apartments and overlooked suburbs, to the spectacular failure of doom-and-gloom forecasts, Bushy and Terry give investors a practical GPS for choosing outperforming locations using Terry’s EMPIRICAL formula alongside Bushy’s 3I’s & 3P’s. If you’re serious about building a lifestyle-funding portfolio - not just a random collection of properties - this conversation is essential listening.

Send us a textReady to stop grinding and start scaling? We dive into a clear, no-fluff blueprint for using agentic AI to grow sales, improve margins, and reclaim your time. Instead of one-off prompts, you'll learn how autonomous agents perceive context, plan multi-step workflows, make decisions, and execute tasks across your stack—then learn from outcomes to get better week after week.We walk through the five domains where agents deliver immediate wins: customer support that resolves faster and cuts cost per ticket; lead generation that researches prospects and tailors outreach to lower CAC; marketing engines that ideate, create, test, and iterate across channels; back-office automation that reconciles books, tracks invoices, and manages inventory; and forecasting that sharpens demand, revenue, and cash flow accuracy. Along the way, we plug real numbers into the conversation—10x service cost reductions, 40–60% time-to-output cuts, and double-digit revenue lift—so you can benchmark your own progress with confidence.Measurement is the unlock. You'll get a compact KPI framework tied to the P&L: revenue growth rate, ROI per initiative, gross margin improvement, operating cash flow accuracy, CAC and lifetime value, time-to-output, error rates, cost per transaction, CSAT, and NPS. We also share practical guardrails to deploy safely: approvals, escalation paths, SOPs, and team training that make adoption stick. The human edge—strategy, empathy, and brand—stays at the center while agents handle the repetitive execution. If you've wondered how to leverage AI without losing what makes your business special, this is your roadmap.Subscribe for more playbooks, share this with a founder who needs it, and leave a review to tell us which KPI you'll track first.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Big O talks TUA 120125

What's the secret to making a great event come together? Today I'm chatting with my friend and event co-host Anita Guerini. Together, we hosted The Pink Skirt Project event in 2025 with over 300 women in attendance. It was a magnetic experience that changed lives, and we can't wait to do it again. In this conversation, we're sharing how we shattered the blueprint for running an event like this for the first time, and how we're going even bigger and bolder next year. In this episode, you will learn about: Why we decided to go big with our first event, and how it paid off. What actually made our event a sold-out success. Why I hid my true self for so long in business (and the moment that liberated me). How opening up a safe space for vulnerability creates major impact.

Suffering Victoriously As Christians… “It is ‘Go Time’ to be Fully Invested in Serving Christ and His Kingdom!”  It was and seems to be once again time to be fully invested in serving the LORD.  There are four fundamental responses that need to be consistently practiced as troublesome times continue to unfold.  First, a prayer life built upon sound judgment and soberness.  Next, we need to remain fervent in our love for the brethren.  Third we need to be hospitable with a great attitude,  Finally, we need to invest our God-given gifts, talents, abilities, and resources to advance Christ’s Kingdom.  The overall riding purpose is that God may be glorified in His people as we humbly do His will.  The post It Is “Go Time” To Be Fully Invested! appeared first on Pleasant Hill Church of Christ.

Australian property investors are selling up in record numbers – and the 2025 PIPA Investor Survey finally reveals why. In this solo episode, Bushy Martin breaks down the truth behind the rental crisis and what it really means for everyday Australians trying to build wealth. Bushy unpacks the biggest shifts in this year’s PIPA survey, including: Record investor exits (16% sold in the last year) and why most of those properties left the rental market. Costs rising 10–40% while 65% of investors are passing on less than 10% to tenants. Major fear triggers like negative gearing reform, CGT changes, land tax hikes and compliance blowouts. State-level pain, with QLD and VIC hit hardest. A surprising silver lining — nearly 60% of investors still believe it’s a good time to buy. He then zooms out to reveal the bigger truth most commentators are missing: You don’t fix a shortage by shrinking the supply. Investor exits mean fewer rentals, higher rents and more pressure on the people who can least afford it. Bushy also shares his foresight on what’s coming next — from the likely intensification of the rental crunch to interest rate expectations and why contrarian investors may quietly win the next cycle. Finally, he gives you his clear GPS for what to do now: Strengthen emotional resilience and think long-term Stress-test your buffers and compliance load Avoid hype, focus on fundamentals and buy where true scarcity exists PIPA Resources This episode draws on insights from the Property Investment Professionals of Australia (PIPA).

PLA Anti-Submarine Warfare Grows, But Taiwan Conflict Will Immediately Escalate to Total War for Ryukyu Islands — Rick Fisher — Fisher notes that the PLA Navy has invested heavily in advanced anti-submarine warfare (ASW) capabilities. However, Japan maintains a meaningful deterrent margin through its new lithium-battery powered submarines. Fisher warns that China cannot impose an effective blockade of Taiwan without invading and occupying the Sakushima Islands (part of the Ryukyu chain), guaranteeing that any conflict over Taiwan's status will immediately transition into total, wider warfare involving Japan and the United States. 1937 ESTONIA

There comes a point where the math you've been doing in your head stops adding up. You spent years in school. You passed the bar. You took on the loans. You built the career you were told would make it all worth it. Now you're tired, anxious, or checked out, but the idea of leaving makes your stomach drop. It feels like walking away means none of it mattered.That's how the sunk cost trap works. It convinces smart people that the only respectable choice is to stick with a decision that's hurting them. It tells you that if you bail now, everything you put into becoming a lawyer disappears.If you're stuck in the “I can't throw this away” spiral and need help figuring out your next step you need to listen to this. See show notes at formerlawyer.com/249

In a market full of shortcuts, hype, and “get-rich-by-Friday” noise, the real advantage belongs to investors who master the art of shifting gears — between growth and cashflow, and between working hard and actually living well. In Part 2 of Bushy’s deep-dive with Simon Lacey, an investor with 26 properties to his name, we peel back the curtain on what sustainable, purpose-driven property investing really looks like. Simon shares how he refined his entire “property engine” through co-living, commercial lending, and building a people-first buyer’s agency — all while keeping a long-term, fundamentals-first mindset. This is an episode for investors who want to resist the lure of the quick win, avoid the traps of short-term thinking, and instead build wealth the way it’s always been built: with clarity, consistency, and calm execution. Bushy and Simon dig into: How to shift gears between growth and cashflow without stalling your strategy Why the fundamentals — not the fads — deliver real financial freedom How co-living and commercial lending shaped Simon’s investment approach The importance of a people-first lens when building a property business Why persistence, patience and purpose always pay off in the long run If you’re ready to tune out the gimmicks and get serious about building a balanced life and a bulletproof portfolio, this episode will show you exactly what it takes.

This Sunday we continue our annual sermon series on stewardship. This year our stewardship series is titled, “All In”. Every year we take some take to look at how we as a congregation are gonna be good caretakers to the church with our gifts. Tune in as Pastor John Shughart shares the message, “All In: Invested.” Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:6-11 and Matthew 6:19-21

Why give to the local church? How do we discern what to give? And what does the Lord do through the financial offerings of His people? All of this is explored in the final installment of our Invested series.

Discover how Simon Lacey built a powerhouse 26-property portfolio generating $900k a year - and the strategic lessons every Australian investor can use to live by design.

In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin sits down with property investor and buyer’s agent Simon Lacey, who breaks down the mindset, strategy and long-game grit behind one of the most impressive portfolios in the country. Bushy kicks things off by reminding us that choosing the right investment strategy and tactical approach isn’t easy - and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. That’s why Simon’s journey is so valuable. From a light-bulb moment at age 15 to buying his first property at just 20, Simon has built - alongside his wife Christie - a diversified, multi-state portfolio of 26 properties, spanning active developments through to positive cash flow holdings. Today, their investments generate $900,000 in annual rent and are tracking towards the magic million. Their success didn’t just change their lives - it became the foundation for the Lacey Elite Buyers Agency, where they now help everyday Australians achieve the same clarity, confidence and sustainable success. In this episode, you’ll learn: The critical mindset shifts that fuelled Simon’s early momentum How he blended development, renovation and cash-flow plays to fast-track growth Why diversifying across states supercharged portfolio performance Practical insights into crafting your own long-term, sustainable investment strategy The story behind Lacey Elite Buyers Agency and how Simon and Christie now help others live by design If you’re an aspiring or active investor seeking guidance, inspiration and proven principles, Simon’s story will give you the clarity and confidence to refine your own investment path.

Bushy Martin helps you reset your stance for success - by switching your focus from what might change to what never changes. Markets are messy, media is manic, and fads are fickle. Yet amid all the noise, the investors who win are those anchored to the fundamentals that always hold true. Bushy unpacks how to build a property plan that compounds over time, regardless of market moods or media cycles. With over four decades and $4B+ in property finance experience, Bushy explains why people don’t change—and how smart investors can out-structure their emotions, leverage finance as the true market mover, and buy before the crowd turns fundamentals into “hot spots.” Whether you’re an aspiring or seasoned investor, this episode will help you stop reacting to headlines and start compounding the principles that always deliver. Key Takeaways Stop reacting to headlines; start compounding fundamentals. People don’t change—so design your plan to out-structure your emotions. Future growth hides in the 3 I’s & 3 P’s; medians and averages mask the real gems. Finance is the lever: access to credit moves markets more than markets move themselves. Plan for the worst, manage for the best - buffers buy time, and time lets compounding win. Be the contrarian: buy before the pied pipers turn fundamentals into ‘hot spots.’ If you don't know Bushy, he is one of Australia’s most trusted property finance strategists, host of the award-winning Get Invested podcast, and author of The Freedom Formula. Over 40 years and $4B+ in finance experience, Bushy helps everyday Aussies design a lifestyle by choice - using property the right way, with the right structure, and the right team. His mission: to turn confusion into clarity, and reaction into compounding. Find your Freedom Formula Success in property starts with your 'why', and then the 'what' and 'how'.

The Entrepreneur's Odyssey by Andrew Ackerman Andrewbackerman.com https://www.amazon.com/Entrepreneurs-Odyssey-Andrew-Ackerman/dp/1032883545 The Entrepreneur's Odyssey is an authentic window into what it really takes to turn an idea into a viable startup. It is both an essential how-to guide for would-be startup founders as well as an entertaining novel for the startup curious. This textbook-as-novel has fictional first-time entrepreneur Marcus Williams recount his journey from would-be founder with a half-formed idea to a funded startup. His mentor, Jason Murath, a seasoned angel investor, guides Marcus step by step through customer discovery, validating and refining the product, market sizing, and more, all the way through closing his first round of financing. There has never been a more fun – and effective! – way to learn how to build a startup.About the author Serial entrepreneur turned early stage investor, innovation expert, professor and, oh yeah, author. Invested in 70+ startups and mentored hundreds more. Tl;dr It's hard Built my first startup into the top provider of web services to summer camps. Lots of mistakes. Luckily, none killed the company. Managed a family office. Incubated new ventures while managing hedge & private equity funds. Meh. Recruited to found an app for parents to organize digital memories. Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want. Awesome experience. Why start one business when you can launch dozens? Joined an accelerator and ended up creating a new, later stage, platform for them. These days I run REACH Labs for Second Century Ventures, consult for corporate venture funds, accelerators, etc. Teach entrepreneurship in my (ha!) spare time to test my book with real students. Spoiler: It works really well. Over 60 published articles but this is my first novel. Hope you enjoy it!

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with Chad Willardson, entrepreneur, wealth advisor, and author of Fully Invested, for a heartfelt and lively conversation about what it truly means to win big at work and at home - without sacrificing one for the other. Chad shares the journey behind his “fully invested” philosophy: from the pivotal moment he chose family over chasing the Wall Street grind, to building successful businesses while making his marriage and five kids a top priority. Together, we unpack why “work-life balance” is a myth, and how true fulfillment comes from integrating your values into every part of your life, not compartmentalizing them. Key themes include learning to say no to good opportunities so you can say yes to great ones, cultivating championship teams in business and family, and establishing rituals and communication that keep loved ones connected even as life and careers evolve. Chad's candid stories and practical strategies illuminate how being present, whether at home or work, not only deepens relationships but powers greater professional success. Whether you're longing for more meaning at home while building your career, or questioning if you really have to choose between family and ambition, this episode is a powerful reminder that your richest life is possible when you invest fully in what truly matters.   About Chad, Chad Willardson, CFF®, CRPC®, AWMA®, is the President and Founder of Pacific Capital, a family office services firm dedicated to helping high-net-worth entrepreneurs achieve lifestyle and financial freedom. Chad is also the Founder of ELEVATED, an exclusive coaching program for growth-focused entrepreneurs.
