In this episode, I'm diving into a question that came up inside my six-month coaching and training program, Courage Lab 2.0. If you haven't checked it out yet, you totally should—people inside are seeing incredible results, making big moves, and getting a huge return on their investment.During one of our recent community Q&A calls, someone asked a really important question: What do you do when a donor who previously committed to giving a certain amount suddenly decides to give less? Maybe they cite political or economic uncertainty, or their priorities are shifting—either way, it puts you in a tough spot.I've seen this scenario play out many times, and there are two main ways to approach it. In this episode, I break down both paths and share how I navigate these conversations with boldness and leadership. Because here's the thing—this isn't a new phenomenon, and it's not going away. But as fundraisers and leaders, we have to step up, challenge the status quo, and advocate for the resources we need to do our work effectively.What we cover in this episode: How to respond when a donor changes their commitmentThe importance of getting curious before reactingWhy values clarification is key in donor relationshipsHow to position your organization as a top-performing investmentThe power of bold, direct conversations that hold donors accountableWhy now is the time to lead, not settle for lessIf you've ever had a donor change course on you, this episode will give you the mindset and strategy to handle it with confidence. It's time to lead with courage and make sure the best, most effective organizations—like yours—get the funding they deserve.Listen in, take notes, and let me know what resonates with you!Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say?

Doug Peacock had dedicated his life to teaching, diligently putting money aside every month for his retirement. However, when the day finally arrived, he was shocked to discover that he was short a staggering $25,000,000. Sitting down with his advisor, Doug couldn't help but marvel at the red stash of money that represented his shortfall. Reflecting on his career, he couldn't help but think that this conversation should have happened five years earlier instead of just 60 days before leaving the classroom. Despite his unexpected financial setback, Doug now sought to find a new path in life, one that would bring him fulfillment and purpose beyond the confines of teaching.Connect with Doug Peacock: https://www.peacockwealthgroup.com/Topics & Bullets:Introduction to the episode and guestIntroduction of the podcast, host, and guest Doug PeacockDiscovering the upside-down approach to life insuranceFlipping the upside down with minimum death benefit and maximum cash valueCutting commissions to benefit clientsAvailability of money within 30 to 60 daysUse of mutual companies that pay dividendsSelectivity in choosing insurance companiesThe speaker's personal financial journeyAttempting retirement from teachingDiscovering a shortfall in savings late in their careerRealization that the conversation should have happened earlierExploding student loan debts and the start of a new pathThe importance of control and access to moneyThe need for boundaries in wealth warehousingThe value of a good coachHaving control and access to investmentsCriteria for selecting insurance companiesPreference for 100 plus-year-old mutual companiesA-rated companies as preferred choicesWho benefits from the approachAthletes, real estate investors, and coaches looking to retireCustomer control over investmentsFactors influencing insurance costsAge, gender, and health ratingLower costs for women due to perceived lower risk behaviorFinancing life and the importance of benefitsComparing costs with long-term benefitsEmphasis on financing life rather than focusing on death benefitAccess to money for various needs throughout lifeTax advantages and concernsTax-exempt status of accumulated moneyConcerns about the direction of taxesTaking action and challenging beliefs about moneyBelief in the need to take action todayImportance of challenging beliefs about moneyRecognition that a relationship is not the key to successExpertise and learning from othersTagline discussion on investing 10,000 hours or learning from someone who has already made that investmentThe importance of navigating specific structures and processesInfinite banking and life insurance policy selectionThe term "infinite banking" losing meaningChoice of life insurance policy depending on individual needsExamples of different policy choices for different clientsThe process and benefits of wealth warehousingPatience and time required for the method to yield resultsBuilding cash value for future usePotential for a return that exceeds the initial investmentCreation of a tax-free warehouse of...

Bruce Wehner discusses the primary components of infinite banking policy design: base premium, paid-up additions riders, and term riders. Following the principles laid out by Nelson Nash in Becoming Your Own Banker, we review the concepts for designing a whole life insurance policy for the Infinite Banking Concept. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S54uejv8g-Q When my father took out a whole life insurance policy on me as a newborn, little did he know that it would be the cornerstone of my financial planning in the future. From leveraging that policy for a home down payment to understanding the value of banking, I've followed the policy design guidelines of the Nelson Nash Institute to navigate the complex world of finance. Join us in our exploration of whole life insurance and the myriad of benefits it offers not just from a security standpoint, but also as a tool for capital growth and liquidity. In this episode, we touch upon the long-term thinking involved in whole life insurance policy design. The focus is on the trade-offs we make, highlighting the potential benefits of reduced liquidity in the early years. We also delve into the nitty-gritty of policy design, discussing why a convertible term policy can be a boon for your financial portfolio. Moreover, we illuminate the often misunderstood relationship between banking and insurance, demonstrating how the former can be a profitable venture to exploit. Lastly, we examine the financial intricacies of policy design, emphasizing the importance of understanding the connection between a policy's base death benefit and premium. We share insights into how dividends are calculated and how factors such as a low-interest-rate environment can impact these projections. Wrapping up, we stress on the importance of affording the premiums and how it affects the potential dividends one can receive. So, tune in, and let's debunk the myths surrounding whole life insurance policy design while learning how to make the most of it. Whole Life Insurance is Not an InvestmentThe 3 Components of Infinite Banking Policy DesignWhat is Base?What are PUAs? Infinite Banking Policy Design and Base/PUA SplitThe Role of Term InsuranceThe Balance of Infinite Banking Policy DesignLiquidity and Thinking Long-TermOther Facets of Infinite Banking Policy DesignBook A Strategy Call Whole Life Insurance is Not an Investment Whole life insurance is a unique place to store cash because it's safe and it grows. This growth, however, cannot be compared to investments because it's not an investment. Instead, it should be compared to a bank, which is meant to be “safe” growth. This comparison reveals that cash value in a policy grows at a more substantial rate and is also tax-advantaged.  Cash value is also fairly liquid, though it takes some time for your cash value to catch up to the contributions you make. In other words, there are some limitations on the liquidity early on. However, this is temporary and is more than worth the trade-off of safe growth—safe from the IRS, creditors, taxation, loss, theft, and death. It's an iron-clad way to store your cash that you can't get anywhere else. The 3 Components of Infinite Banking Policy Design In order to get the best results from your whole life insurance policy, you want one that is specifically designed for IBC. This means that you want to work with an insurance agent who is familiar with your financial objectives, and can help you choose the ideal policy design. Policy design can be complex, yet the three main components of a policy are base premium, PUA riders, and term riders. What is Base? Base refers to the part of your premium that goes to the main (or base) portion of the death benefit you're buying. This is the foundation you build the rest of your policy upon, such as PUAs and riders.  When you have a high base, you're buying more death benefit upfront, and paying for it over the course of your premiums.

From Neal Bawa's perspective, multi-family is the “Right Now” investment opportunity. It all comes down to a more rational approach to underwriting and avoiding the tendency to chase trends or try to time the market. Neal is known in real estate circles as The Mad Scientist of Multi-Family.

“The carrot is the stick. The brain gets us to do anything and everything for one reason, and that is to escape discomfort. Everything you do, every product you buy, and every action you take is about the desire to escape discomfort. Even the pursuit of pleasurable emotions, wanting, lusting, craving, and desiring are uncomfortable. We have to realize that from that perspective, it doesn't help us to think about customer needs in terms of wanting to feel good. It's much better to think about the pain points.”- Nir Eyal "An internal trigger is an uncomfortable emotional state that we seek to escape, like boredom, loneliness, fatigue, uncertainty, stress, and anxiety. When the user feels that internal trigger, they look for relief with our product or service. It is always a negative emotion. The only reason why people use a product or service is to manipulate their mood. It's to feel something different. As a product designer, entrepreneur, or marketer, you have to understand the feeling that your customer is trying to escape before focusing on the product feature, which is less important." - Nir Eyal “The brand is not what keeps people coming back. What Shein has is economies of scale. They can make stuff dirt cheap. Walmart used to be all about cheap products, then Amazon came along and it was also doing the same thing. After that, Shein came along, and there will be something after Shein that makes stuff super cheap. Competing on price alone can be a winning strategy, but you're going to have a lot of knives on your back. You have to be careful because somebody's going to try and copy that very quickly, especially since we know people at manufacturers in China are emulating and copying these types of strategies. I would take out the Hook model and ask myself where it is the weakest. It is weakest in the investment phase. This can be fixed by personalizing the product based on customer preferences.”  - Nir Eyal In this insightful discussion between Jeremy Au, a Venture Capitalist, and Nir Eyal, an expert on habit formation, the focus is on the Hook Model and its relevance in different industries. The conversation delves into the trigger, action, variable reward, and investment phases that create habit-forming products. The key takeaway is that by understanding and implementing the Hook Model, businesses can cultivate user engagement and loyalty. The discussion highlights real-world examples, including edtech and health tech, where the model is being successfully applied. Key Topics Discussed: The four phases of the Hook Model: trigger, action, variable reward, and investmentThe importance of understanding user psychology and internal triggersExamples of habit-forming products in industries like edtech and health techThe role of personalization and customization in creating stickinessThe potential of future developments in e-commerce and personalized experiencesThe need for businesses to go beyond price competition and focus on creating habits This engaging discussion provides valuable insights into how businesses can leverage the Hook Model to create engaging products and services that build long-term customer relationships.

The house hack strategy doesn't always run smoothly. Turning an old home into a modern, rentable masterpiece takes money—especially if you're doing a big renovation. One of the easiest ways to get the rehab funds you need? A home equity line of credit (HELOC). But, when used incorrectly, a HELOC's adjustable interest rate can bury any chance you have at cash flowing, no matter how great of a mortgage rate you get.Welcome back to another Finance Friday episode! This time around, we're tackling a rental property problem that is plaguing today's guest, Josh. Josh has made some sound financial moves by having a stable income, a great side hustle, and his newest house hack. But, to maximize this house hack's return on investment, Josh was forced to expand and convert many portions of his newly bought, hundred-and-fifty-year-old home. This forced his budget to shoot up higher than he was expecting. Now, he's trying to figure out the best move as he manages his debt spread across his mortgage, a high-interest HELOC, a family loan, and more.Josh is poised to continue investing in real estate even after this intensive experience. He wants advice from veteran landlords Mindy and Scott on what his next move should be, how he can best capitalize on his remodeled home, and when he might be able to buy the next house hack. If you're looking to reach financial freedom using real estate like Josh is, this episode is for you!In This Episode We CoverThe house hack strategy and why it's a phenomenal way for new investors to build wealthHome equity lines of credit (HELOCs) and when using this type of debt makes senseHome renovation budgeting and what to expect when doing an entire house remodelVelocity banking and why this form of leverage isn't a smart move to make nowWhen to sell a rental property and when to keep a cash-flowing investmentThe medium-term rental strategy and how to get higher rents for the same room or unitAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowFind an Investor-Friendly Real Estate AgentBiggerPockets Money Facebook GroupBiggerPockets ForumsFinance Review Guest OnboardingMindy's TwitterScott's InstagramListen to All Your Favorite BiggerPockets Podcasts in One PlaceApply to Be a Guest on The Money ShowPodcast Talent Search!Subscribe to The “On The Market” YouTube ChannelListen to The “On The Market” Podcast: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, BiggerPocketsCheck Out Mindy's 2022 Live Spending Tracker and BudgetClick here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/money-359Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

What is the difference between amateur and professional baseball? Money.Overnight, with your name being called in the MLB Draft and the signing of a contract, you instantly transform into a professional.  Even though this might be your first decision based on money, you have been a part of the industry of baseball for years.  Everyone around you has been making monetary decisions about you for years. A few examples include:Perfect Game has estimated revenues in excess of $80 millionName, Image, and Likeness (NIL) is creeping into the amateur ranksMLB is an almost $12 billion dollar industry and they have been spending tens of thousands of dollars to evaluate youAgents are making financial decisions about what you are worth to their business and whether you are a good investmentThe industry of baseball has been preparing for you, but have you been preparing for the industry of baseball?With everyone else placing a value on you and trying to maximize their return on investment, do you know how you can maximize your value to yourself, or even where to start?Whether you have the skillsets or not and whether you are prepared for it, you are now the CEO of a multimillion-dollar business.  As the CEO, you have the responsibility of whether the business of you will succeed or fail.  That is a lot of pressure, but the earlier you recognize this fact, the better you can prepare yourself to handle this responsibility and maximize your opportunity.One of the most important jobs CEOs have is surrounding themselves with the right team.  As a professional baseball player, you don't just need to hire a team, you need to hire the right team. Your team should consist of:TrainersPhysical TherapistsDieticiansPitching/Hitting/Fielding CoachesAgentsA Financial TeamMental Health CoachesRecovery SpecialistsA team like this will put you in the best position to be one of the few players that makes it to arbitration and free agency as well as to avoid the 4 times more likelihood of bankruptcy that MLB players face. This harsh reality isn't meant to scare you.  Rather, it is to help educate and prepare you to seize the opportunity in front of you.  Whether you succeed as the CEO of the business of you is dependent on understanding the opportunity in front of you. It's time for you to get to work!

One of Ted's most important views highlighted is that the government should not be playing the role of investor, but it should be finding out how to be a better partner and customer to contractors. To that end, faster and more efficient acquisition processes should be at the forefront of the DoD's concerns. Hondo, Lauren, and Ted go on to discuss a variety of topics, including:Measuring risk in investmentThe relationship between and roles of venture capital and the governmentHaving a true public-private ‘partnership'DisinformationTalent acquisition in cybersecurity

https://propertyplanning.com.au/propertyplannerbuyerprofessor/In this week's episode Dave, Cate and Pete take you through:1. A question from our listenerIn this week's episode we dive into a question received from one of our listeners who was concerned that he may have made an investment mistake and purchased the wrong property. The key question as posed by the listener was “is this a situation we can even recover from?”. In this interesting and insightful case study, the trio unpack the listener's scenario and discuss possible options for his next steps.2. Analysing the investmentThe trio apply a critical eye to the property in question and they also assess the other properties owned by the listener to determine the future growth prospects, projected outgoings and anticipated rental yield.3. Why did the property seem like a good investment?The bells and whistles attached to a property may make it appear to be a good investment that will likely attract tenants. But often these shiny elements can catch your eye and blind you to what's important, like the land to asset ratio, which is the primary driver of capital growth. These bells and whistles can also be a drainer on your cash flow and yield in the long-term. The trio discuss some clever marketing tricks that can deceive investors into going down the wrong path.4. Peeling back the onion and working on long-term goalsWhere many investors trip on their property portfolio journey, is failing to think about their lifestyle goals and long-term home. For most people, getting into the dream home is one of the big rocks that you want to fit in the jar, and this may mean selling one or a number of investment properties to achieve this goal. The trio discuss planning for your home and how this fits into your portfolio strategy, including retirement planning.5. Running the numbersA key component of any investment decision, whether it's to buy or sell, is to get a clear idea on the different paths you can take and whether you can make that step now. This involves doing the maths and modelling scenarios to make an informed decision. The trio crunch the numbers in this listener scenario – can they get into their long-term home now? Or soon?6. Making peace with selling at a lossMany property owners will need to consider selling a property, whether due to upgrading, offloading a poor performing asset or as part of a debt retirement strategy. With the large in and out costs associated with property transactions, this decision can be an emotional challenge, particularly where a property is sold at a loss. The decision to sell a property should be a serious consideration, if it makes financial sense when considering your long-term goals and opportunity cost.Visit the show notes - https://propertyplanning.com.au/listener-questions-i-bought-a-dud-property-can-we-recover-why-rushing-into-an-investment-can-mask-other-problems-is-lack-of-clarity-on-the-future-home-the-true-cause-being-clea/

 “Buying art is a little bit like buying property in Knightsbridge…if you buy a blue-chip artist who's dead and sit on it long enough then you probably will make money, but that means you need to be able to afford to sit on it for something like 30 or 40 years.“Art is a very difficult asset class generally, it's felt that if you have a wide portfolio then art is something interesting to put your money into, but you certainly wouldn't do it as your primary source of investment. It's also very easy to lose money.”Jane Morris is the editor-at-large of CultureShock Media, an arts and culture content agency that delivers print, digital, film and social media strategies for leading arts businesses, museums and galleries. Jane went to Central St Martins, where she studied fine art before studying journalism and has managed to establish a career which combines her fascination with both. She has written for The Art Newspaper, Monocle, the Economist, Artnet and the Guardian and has built teams of international writers covering news, investigative, data-driven reporting, analysis and long form features about the art world. We talk about investing in art, how to spot a trend (as well as what's best to avoid), THAT famous Banksy shredding moment and Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs). “There has been a view, I would say coming more from the investment world, that one of the reasons people don't buy digital art is because it's easily copied. I suspect that it's because it's not seen as as attractive as a painting on the wall.” We also talk about: The challenges and continuing effect of coronavirus on the art worldCurrent trends and ones to watch in the market Ring bidding in the upper echelons of the art worldThe risky game of trading art as an investmentThe lack of diversity in the art world and what museums are doing to rectify itYou can follow Jane on Twitter @MaryJaneMorris. About The Nicole Bremner Podcast: Nicole Bremner is an investor, speaker, writer, and podcaster.

Senior Living operational excellence has been the focus of Doug's work since 2002.

Ryan is a double graduate of Wake Forest University with an undergrad in Psychology & Statistics and an MBA. He is a self-made real estate entrepreneur who owns and operates 20 Mobile Home Parks spanning ~1,795 units. But here's the thing: He started with nothing. No money. No experience. No network. He was a 20 something with way more student loan debt than actual capital to invest in deals. He's just a normal dude. The only thing that makes him different is that he refused to quit. And he was willing to sacrifice, and take bold action. He found creative ways to make money while he scaled his business up. He was stuck in Corporate America. He escaped. And he wants to help others too.   [00:01 - 09:29] Opening Segment Ryan shares his ‘not so sexy' passive investing background and experience Why Ryan uses the products he sells Like a three-legged stool: all or nothing   [09:30 - 14:24] Reinvesting to Grow Ryan talks about reinvestingReinvesting over 75%  You have to outsource smart The Cheapest Capital and Most Multiplier The Best Thing About the United States   [14:25 - 25:45] Becoming FI with Mobile Home Parks in Your 30s...Then What?

Alan Clayton is Chairman of Philanthropy and Fundraising International, and Director of Philanthropy and Fundraising North America. He's also a brilliant fundraiser.I had the absolute pleasure of visiting with Alan this past week to talk about great fundraising organizations...what makes them great, how they think and behave differently than other nonprofits, how they approach their brand differently from other organizations, and what other nonprofits need to do to become great in their own right. Alan gives us his in-depth assessment on:The biggest obstacle to great fundraising and growth for nonprofits (hint: it's probably not what you think)The process organizations and leaders need to follow to bring alignment internally that can prepare their organizations for transformational growthHow to know if your organization is prepared for a great fundraising transformationNavigating the complex maze of logic and emotion to bring about meaningful change in your organizationWhy the conflict over investment between fundraising and program budgets is short-sighted, and how you should think differently about itHow an organization's fundraising returns compare to stock market returns, and why CFO's should fully embrace fundraising investmentThe key decisions that growth-minded, successful nonprofits make that are different from the decisions that average nonprofits don't make   Alan and his team are hosting a fully ONLINE version of The Great Fundraising Masterclass from February 9 - February 12.

When we hear the word invest, we always think of money. Of course, that's part of it, right? It can be painful, and scary investing money but that's not JUST it. We are able to invest our time, care, energy. Maybe investing your focus and energy on something. When we invest our money, all of those other things fall in line and we end up with MUCH better results.Listen in to this episode to find out how to truly start valuing the importance of investing in yourself and your business. It's time to start appreciating it more and show up fully for yourself, and sometimes it takes truly “investing” to do that. In this episode, I am sharing with you:Newest Service, Monthly Coffee, Connections & Coaching (link to RSVP below)Money as an exchange of energyBreaking down the idea of “NEEDING” to provide free goods/services to affirm or approve your valueWhy your work is valuableThe truth behind investmentThe different way we show up when we truly invest vs. barely investing and not feeling the accountability to show up or take care of things.Choosing to invest, and going all-in when you do.Resources:++ Reminder to RSVP to our 1st (free) Monthly Coffee, Connections & Coaching [Networking] event on January 28th!

https://www.linkedin.com/in/runelondon/ (Rune Sovndahl) is the co-founder ofhttps://www.fantasticservices.com/ ( Fantastic Services) – an international brand with 10+ years of experience that combines technological innovations with bespoke customer care to deliver services for the home, office, and garden. Rune is Danish but moved to London 20 years ago to study for a BA (Hons) in Business Information Systems Design at South Bank University. Following the completion of his degree, he was accepted into a graduate program with British Telecom. In 2003 he also established the European Young Professionals committee in London and was involved in its website’s creation and the recruitment of more than 200 new members. Most recently, he worked for lastminute.com as Head of SEO.   “For any investment that you get into, be prepared to lose it all.” Rune Sovndahl   Worst investment everRune was running a successful business, and he had managed to put aside some good savings for 12 years. He decided that he wanted to invest this money in something that would make him a good return. So he started researching possible investment ideas. Getting some of the Amazon pieRune came across Fulfillment by Amazon, something he found quite fascinating, and after he did his math, he saw that he could make some pretty good money. So he got into this. Mixing business with friendshipAt the time, Rune had a friend he had worked with for a couple of years on many other things. Rune spoke to his friend about his new investment, and they agreed to run it together. They signed a contract, got the paperwork in order, and the partnership was good on paper. Return on investmentThe business picked up, and Rune started getting good returns. It grew into something useful, and there was money continually going into their Amazon account. Though Rune was busy with his other businesses, he would occasionally check on the account and confirm that everything was ok. Getting blockedRune’s account got blocked at some point, so they had to set up another one with a different company name and details. In the process, the money in the previous account was moved to the new one. Suddenly, Rune’s login details would not work for the new account. But since he still had access to the spreadsheet with the money details, he didn’t pay much attention to the logins. Bleeding dryMoney over time stopped going into the Amazon account, and when it came back, it was transferred to another account, which wasn’t Rune’s bank account. Suddenly there was no more money in the Amazon account. Rune was notified that the account was shut down. He found this strange because, as far as he knew, they were still in business. He tried to log in, but it said the account was shut down. That’s when Rune found out that all the money they had made was gone. His trusted friend had siphoned all of it. Lessons learnedPartner with people who have something of vested interestWhen partnering with people, even if you have the correct paperwork in place, these people should have assets or anything else that is of value. This makes it easy for you to recover your investment should the deal go sour. Don’t let past success blind youMost investors think that because they’re successful and what they want to invest in somehow seems easy, they can do it. You realize later that that’s not true. Be careful who you trustWhen getting into partnerships, most people trust blindly. They believe their partners have the same integrity as them and, therefore, expect them to deliver the end of their bargain faithfully.

We are all for throwing two fingers up at the establishment, and who better to do that than an LGBTQ, black, woman investor? Meet Arlan Hamilton, Founder and Managing Partner of Backstage Capital. Backstage Capital is a fund that invests in under-estimated founders that are defined as women, people of colour and members of the LGBTQ community, who together represent the biggest economic opportunity for investment.Arlan’s latest book, It’s About Damn Time has been received with critical acclaim, because given the state of play in the world right now, it really is about damn time. She’s an inspiring hustler who’s come to venture capital from a completely adjacent industry. Just a few short years ago Arlan was homeless and now, 5 years on, her $10m boutique venture fund has invested in over 130 startups. She takes capital from an increasing list of big name investors, such as Mark Cuban, who trust her decision making to back the next generation of founders. “I didn't believe when they said things like, ‘you're not networked enough’, or ‘you're not connected enough’. I thought that was BS. But I did respect the ones who said, ‘you've got to really get your chops figured out’ and thankfully, no one could be more sure of that than myself, like, no one could be harder on me than I could be on myself.”We chat about:Becoming a venture capitalistFair feedback during fundraisingThe ignorant assumptions VC make about underrepresented foundersPreparing founders for investmentThe power of saying noHow she maintains her mental healthLinks:Book - It’s About Damn TimeWant to receive our podcast on a weekly basis?

A few months ago, a reader of this blog asked me to analyse two options. Option one is to borrow more money to fund an upgrade of your family home and consequently enjoy tax-free capital gains. The second option is to invest in property. The reader wanted to know which is the best option, net of all taxes such as capital gains and land tax?Widen the scope of the questionI’d like to widen the scope of this question and add one more option – investing in shares. I have concerns with investing large amounts of borrowed funds in the share market, which I will discuss below. However, as an independent financial advisory firm, it is important that we always provide a balanced view – even if some of the options we are comparing are more of an academic comparison, than a practical one.Interest rate assumptionOne of the key assumptions in my financial modelling is interest rates. Normally, I like to adopt a conservative long-term interest rate assumption of 6.5% p.a. However, I realise that this might be less appropriate when interest rates around the world are making their way to zero (or are already there) and central banks are pursuing quantitively easing. It is very likely that interest rates will remain persistently low for an extended period of time. That said, it’s also not impossible that interest rates will rise sometime in the future too.As such, in this analysis I have assumed that the variable interest rate is 3.7% for investment loans and 2.9% p.a. for home loans and will remain at this level for the next 3 years. I have then assumed rates will rise by 3% p.a. over the following decade (on a straight-line basis) and remain at that level.What is most important is that I have used the exact same assumptions when comparing all options.The quantitative analysisI financially modelled three scenarios:Option 1: Borrowing $1 million to fund a home upgrade from $1 million to $2 million. This allows you to move to a superior location thereby enjoying a superior capital growth rate.Option 2: Borrow $1 million to invest in a property that generates gross income of 2% (rental yield before expenses) and capital growth of 7% p.a.Option 3: Borrow $1 million and invest in shares which generate 4.0% p.a. in dividends (40% franked) and 5.0% p.a. in growth rate (so that the overall return is the same as the property option i.e. 9% p.a. – to ensure the comparison is fair).As you will see from the chart below, option one is superior as it results in a higher net worth in today’s dollars. Options 2 and 3 are broadly similar.AIt is interesting to observe that the higher expenses associated with property (e.g. maintenance, land tax, etc.) do not have a material impact. One might expect that the higher expenses associated with property investing compared to the higher income from share investing (particularly franking credits) would result in the shares option being superior. But the higher (compounding) capital growth from property more than offsets its lower income and higher expenses. The key here is investing in the right property i.e. investment-grade.Home loan debt is less of a problem whilst rates are lowOne of the problems with a strategy that gives rise to high amount of non-tax-deductible debt (i.e. home loan) is that it can be very experience. That’s because the interest is not tax deductible – so repayments are made from after tax dollars. In a high interest rate environment, this can absorb all cash flow thereby retarding your ability to make material loan principal repayments or invest in other assets.For example, a $1 million loan at 7% p.a. will cost you $70,000 in annual interest. You need to generate approximately $150,000 of additional pre-tax income to fund this interest cost (i.e. $150,000 pre-tax amounts to $70,000 after-tax). That is expensive.However, in a lower interest rate environment, non-tax-deductible debt becomes less of a cash flow burden. This allows borrowers to (1) repay this debt at a faster rate and/or (2) divert a portion of their cash flow towards other wealth accumulating activities.I would almost never recommend investing $1 million in the share market in one hitFrom a practical perspective, I would not recommend anyone invest a large lump in the share market in one tranche, particularly borrowed funds. Instead, I would prefer to invest the money in smaller tranches over a period of many years. This spreads your timing risk as the share market is twice has volatile as the property market.I only assumed the $1 million was invested in one lump sum for academic purposes – to make sure I’m comparing like for like strategies.Home strategy will only work if you downsizeWhilst the ‘home upgrade’ strategy produces the best result, it is will only help you fund retirement if you sell your home in the future (i.e. downsize) to crystallise the additional equity.I caution people about relying on crystallising home equity as a primary strategy. It is okay as a ‘plan b or c’ but typically not as a primary strategy. The reason is that often people become attached to a certain location due to its amenity and community connections. They might like to downsize in accommodation size but stay in the same area. That does not always translate to a commensurate downsize in value. That is, selling a family home and buying a new, low-maintenance townhouse in the same location may not generate as much “cash” (to fund retirement) as you may initially anticipate.Tax benefits associated with property are far less compellingIn the past, one of the benefits of investing in property is that it would reduce the amount of tax the investor paid i.e. due to negative gearing. This was true in a higher interest rate environment, but in a low interest rate environment, tax benefits are far less compelling.For example, the rate for a 3-year fixed investment loan is currently only 2.70% p.a. Rental yields tend to range between 2% and 4.5% i.e. often higher than current interest rates. Therefore, it is possible a property’s rental income will be enough to pay for all its expenses including interest – thereby not providing an investor any tax savings.Your home can be a good investmentThe key message I would like to convey is that your home can be one of your best investments. For some people, it is practical and possible to purchase a home in a location that possess investment fundamentals. I always counsel my clients to do this, where possible.Of course, the primary reason to purchase a home is for lifestyle purposes, and I understand that. But sometimes it is also possible to do both i.e. buy an investment-grade property and occupy it. And doing so can materially aid wealth accumulation efforts.Therefore, don’t be too quick to discount a potential home upgrade purely as a lifestyle decision. There can be some important financial considerations too, which may or may not aid your wealth accumulation efforts.

This week we sit down with Bianca DiValerio, a flight attendant who makes an hourly wage, has no college degree, experienced THREE short sales during the economic downturn, and yet is STILL financially independent—all before turning 40.How did she do it?She saved her money. She didn’t spend it on things that didn’t matter to her.There is literally NO secret sauce to her story. In fact, she thought she had her future planned out! She had purchased three rental properties to provide a stream of passive income—only to lose them to short sale when unexpected special assessments of $5,000 each became too much for her to afford.And yet, she saved her money. She didn’t spend it on things that didn’t matter to her.And she dug herself out of the financial hole that the short sale pushed her into. She pulled herself back up and started her nest egg over, saving enough to pay cash for a unit in the same building, so she’d never lose her home again.She’s turned that into a rental, lives in a caboose five months out of the year (yes, a TRAIN CABOOSE), and while she has enough money to never HAVE to work again, she enjoys her job, can literally choose when she works, and is living her best life.Bianca is proof that you can recover from an unplanned financial catastrophe, thrive, and STILL reach financial independence—all before you turn 40. You just have to follow the proven path to financial freedom.In This Episode We Cover:Bianca's journey with moneyHow she avoid on having debtThe problem with not having a college degreeWhat happened after she got her job as a flight attendantHow she got into real estateHer thoughts on investmentThe importance of having cash reservesHer credit score after her three short salesThe moment she came across the FIRE movementHer experience living in a train cabooseReasons to not quit your jobAnd SO much more!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Money Facebook GroupBiggerPockets Money Survey

Let’s say you were the youngest ever news anchor at CNN – and then at CNBC, covering major financial stories. You also reported during one of the biggest financial crises of the century. You have interviewed and rubbed shoulders with the who’s who of the financial world for years. But you don’t know that much about how to manage your own money. Let me introduce you to the motivation behind today’s guest on  The School of Greatness. Nicole Lapin is an incredibly successful and talented reporter and television personality, but it wasn’t until years into her career that she faced the truth about her own financial ignorance. After years of study, credentials, and re-shaping her financial health, she is releasing a new book, Rich Bitch, where she tells the stories of her own journey while offering her best tips to creating a rich life. I met Nicole through our mutual friend James Altucher (a money genius himself) and we had a great conversation about the inspiration behind her book. While her work is largely focused on helping women take control of their finances and learn the language of money, her insight and tips are useful for anyone. She even takes me to task for how I’m investing and I pick up some advice during the interview. If you’re interested in finally understanding the myths surrounding investing and healthy finances, you’re going to love Episode 128 with Nicole Lapin. In This Episode, You Will Learn:How finance is like a language you have to learnHer story of what motivated her to get into finance (hint: she had to buy a plane ticket with actual paper money)Why she wrote her book of money “confessions”The idea of “financial dieting”How to set finance goals around the three F’s: fun, finance, and familyWhy it’s important to come up with a sustainable spending planWhy you should never buy a house just as an investmentThe reason you should think of ALL your time as billable hoursWhat to account for with your savings plans: essentials, endgame, and extrasWhy you should talk about how much you make with your friends (and ask them as well)Plus much more… Learn more about your ad choices.
