Negative gearing on established homes has just been abolished. The capital gains tax discount you've relied on for twenty years has been rewritten.   And somewhere between the government's press conference and the Treasury modelling, a trillion dollars in debt got added to the tab for a generation that hasn't even been asked if they're willing to pay it.   So here's the question I want to answer for you today. If you're a property investor, a business owner, or someone who just wants a comfortable retirement, what do the next three years actually look like for you?   By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly what the man leading the opposition to these changes thinks should happen instead.   You'll know whether a change of government would genuinely wind back negative gearing and CGT reform, or whether that's politically unrealistic once the changes are locked in.    And you'll understand where the real blame sits for the property market slowdown, because it's not as simple as the headlines make out.   My guest today is the Hon Tim Wilson, the Federal Member for Goldstein and Australia's Shadow Treasurer and in this episode I'm speaking with him about what the recent tax and housing changes mean for property, business, and retirement outcomes.   We unpack how government debt, rising taxes, and weaker private investment are reshaping Australia's economic outlook.   Tim explains why policy uncertainty is damaging confidence for property investors, business owners, and overseas capital.   We discuss how changes to negative gearing, capital gains tax, and trusts could lift rents and deter new housing supply.   We also explore why a growth-focused, small-business-led economy is, in Tim's view, the best path forward.   Takeaways    • Government debt today becomes tomorrow's taxes, squeezing household spending and future investment choices. • Inflation erodes living standards by lifting supermarket prices while wages and productivity struggle to keep pace. • Public-sector job growth can crowd out private enterprise, weakening long-term economic resilience and innovation. • Higher taxes on property investment reduce rental supply, pushing rents upward for tenants. • Tax changes that hurt housing feasibility discourage builders, slowing new dwelling construction across the market. • First-home buyer schemes can unintentionally inflate entry-level prices by boosting demand faster than supply. • Retrospective rule changes destroy investor confidence, making long-term capital allocation far riskier. • Trust tax reforms may trigger costly restructures, wasting time and money across the economy. • Prioritising super over home ownership delays deposits, family formation, and wealth-building for younger Australians. • Small businesses drive productivity and hiring, so backing them supports broader economic growth and opportunity.   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here - https://www.propertytrivia.com.au/ ·        Win a hard copy of How To Grow A Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio In Your Spare Time. ·        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here.   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property plan.

Are you watching a social experiment, or a system of orchestrated human exploitation? Today on Eyes Wide Open, we're joined by Professor Tim Wilson, winner of The Circle (UK), and reality TV rights activist and host Nick Thompson to pull back the curtain on the troubling Married at First Sight scandal. Tim and Nick discuss the MAFS UK scandal and the troubling ethical failures of the reality TV industry. We dive into how massive productions like Married at First Sight UK (or MAFS UK) prioritize drama over participant safety. We expose the systemic negligence, lack of regulation, and manufacture of dangerous, risky situations for ratings that are embedded in the reality TV landscape.  We explore the serious psychological risks for cast members, including exploitation and trauma, and why current industry standards like the self-proclaimed "gold standard" for safety are failing spectacularly.  Nick and Professor Wilson contrast these systemic failures with the mission of the UCAN Foundation, a nonprofit co-founded by Thompson to provide ethical treatment, support, and advocacy for reality TV cast members. Whether you're a viewer, a participant, or an industry professional, this conversation provides a roadmap for returning to a culture of advocacy, transparency, and human-centric media.   In this episode, you will learn: ✅MAFS UK scandal exposed with an in-depth look into the serious allegations and repeated pattern of neglect in the recent Married at First Sight UK ✅ How psychological profiling and evaluations are misused to profile and manipulate contestants for specific storylines. ✅ Professor Tim Wilson shares his research on institutional betrayal, explaining how ethical standards are often "performative" in high-profit environments. ✅The "Gold Standard" lies in an investigation into how current reality TV safety protocols fail to protect vulnerable cast members from exploitation and trauma ✅ How the UCAN Foundation, a mental health advocacy nonprofit, is stepping in to offer ethical support and a new framework for the industry. About Our Guest Professor Tim Wilson is a British investigative integrity expert with a background that spans high-level public service, including significant roles within Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary, and unique insights from his time as a contestant on the reality competition series The Circle, Professor Wilson possesses a one-of-a-kind perspective on media dynamics and systemic failure.
