What if everything you've been told about retirement and budgeting is wrong? In this bold and hilarious conversation, Dr. Lauryn sits down with best-selling author and financial disruptor Garrett Gunderson to rethink everything from 401ks to scarcity-based money mindsets. Garrett shares his journey from a coal mining lineage to redefining wealth, and breaks down why so many financial “truths” are actually traps designed to keep you disempowered.They dive into why traditional retirement plans fall short, how budgeting often creates more stress than freedom, and what it really means to become financially independent in today's world. You'll learn Garrett's framework for building wealth in 3–7 years, how to use whole life insurance strategically, and how to align your financial strategy with your personality. This episode is a masterclass in thinking differently, investing smarter, and living more abundantly.Key Takeaways:Traditional retirement plans are broken. Garrett explains how 401ks were designed to benefit institutions more than individuals and why most retirement strategies are based on outdated, flawed assumptions.Budgeting isn't the answer—mindful cash management is. Instead of restrictive budgets, Garrett promotes a system where you automatically save, plug financial leaks, and spend intentionally.Build wealth by expanding your means, not shrinking them. Garrett outlines how to create financial independence by focusing on cash flow, investing in yourself, and picking the right asset class based on your strengths.Whole life insurance can be a powerful savings vehicle.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, hosts Liam Garman and Emilie Lauer sit down with John Stallman from Stallman IQ to discuss how financial planning intersects with property investment. According to John, properties are a powerful wealth-building tool when paired with financial planning, especially when approaching a portfolio with a patient, long-term approach. While John supports using equity for further investments or passive income when financially sensible, he advises maintaining borrowings below 80 per cent of the property's value and collaborating with trusted brokers. In comparing assets, he notes that shares provide consistent growth, while property enables investors to leverage larger assets with a smaller upfront capital, resulting in greater stability and planning potential. John said that every investor, including middle-income earners, can benefit from financial advice, with his firm launching Super Advice AI, a digital platform offering automated, affordable financial guidance on topics like negative gearing and superannuation. Lastly, John emphasises that successful portfolio growth relies on budgeting, contingency planning, and a solid long-term financial strategy.
