Some investors don't think that they have any goals to work towards, so they are unable to add proper structures and frameworks to their investment portfolios. This episode goes through a framework to dig deeper for your financial goals by exploring what you want from life, and therefore your finances.You are able to find the full article here.As cost of living increases and careers become more demanding, many younger people are also turning to income investing to derive a passive income. As more Aussies move towards this style of investing, we must understand what the opportunity cost is. Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column explores the opportunity cost of being an income investor. In Shani's Future Focus column, she looks at the insights for investors from a man responsible for $16 trillion. Salim Ramji is the new captain at the helm of Vanguard. His recent visit to Australia included a conversation with Johnathan Shapiro which revealed insights into how Salim sees the world, and how investors can apply those insights to how they invest. A study found that younger generations were disengaged when it came to their superannuation – and this isn't surprising. It's hard for young people to be excited at the prospect of retirement. But the reality is, failing to review your super is like cutting a hole in your wallet and walking around as the money falls out. This week Sim explores how your level of engagement with superannuation can have a significant impact on your retirement outcomes. Every big decision in life has trade offs. This can make it hard to make a decision in the first place and, perhaps even worse, lead to regrets seeping in later. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph explores a simple three-step method for tackling life's big choices with confidence. From deciding between two jobs to choosing whether to rent or buy.

We look at the ETFs that would go into a 3 ETF portfolio, using Morningstar's Manager Research Medalist ratings. In this week's Unconventional Wisdom column, Mark runs through what he should do about a position in his portfolio that has grown too large. He is reluctant to sell shares, especially due to the tax consequences, but it also aware of the dangers of having a large concentration in one share that violates his investment policy statement. Shani recently wrote an article on why she includes managed funds in her portfolio. She received many questions about whether it was the right choice. Her Future Focus column this week comes out in defence of her decision, and why it's important that investors consider their own situation when choosing investment products. Benjamin Graham is widely revered as the dean of value investing and the master of flipping stocks that traded below their asset value. Despite this, Graham's best ever investment actually stemmed from a very different approach. In this week's edition of Bookworm, Joseph finds buy and hold inspiration from this most unlikely of sources. In Sim's day to day, she often gets asked for investment advice when she least expects. Whether it's about shares at the dinner table or Bitcoin at a doctor's appointment. Recently this turned into a request from her younger sister to invest her savings in the market as I see fit. In Sim's latest column, she discusses how she constructed her sister's portfolio amidst the added pressure of giving financial advice to family.

This episode focuses on tarriffs - how investors should think about them, how they should position their portfolios, and the types of companies that will continue to prosper.Industry super funds have turned to private assets to invest the retirement savings of millions of Australians. In this week's Unconventional Wisdom column, Mark explores whether they live up to the hype. The proposed $3 million super cap was originally seen as a tax for the wealthy. With no adjustment for inflation, with time it will impact more and more Australians. Shani's Future Focus column looks at whether investors should stop contributing to their super, and the ways in which they can approach the problem. Warren Buffett often cites Phil Fisher as one of his biggest investing influences. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph explores one of Fisher's essential criteria for a long-term holding. As Joseph shows, this 'X factor' can be the difference between owning a company that fizzles out after an initial success and one that continues to thrive for many years. Australia's obsession with homeownership is constantly increasing, as first home buyers rush to get on the ladder. Last week, Sim explored whether you should save for a deposit or invest in shares. It appears that amongst the shares vs housing debate, there emerges a third, enigmatic wildcard that is ‘Rent-vesting'.To submit any questions or feedback, please email mark.lamonica1@morningstar.com or leave us a voicemail to feature on the podcast here.Additional resources from our episodes are available via our website.Audio Producer and mixer: William Ton.

Mark goes through why the conventional wisdom is to reinvest dividends, but despite this, why he has stopped.This week, Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column takes a deep dive into the Yale model. He looks at whether Industry superfunds are following the wrong investment strategy, as there are signs that it may not work as well in the future as it has in the past. For International Women's Day, Shani's Future Focus column looks at how women have been able to find financial security regardless of vigorous societal opposition, looking at examples from different cultures around the world. She leans into new research from Morningstar's Behavioural Research team to provide evidence based insights on how to increase your financial security by focusing on strengthening your foundations. Australians are often told that the only way to achieve wealth is through the property market. This week Sim explores the question many young people are grappling with amid sky rocketing house prices, should you invest in shares or save for a house deposit? A company's moat and the returns on capital it is able to generate for shareholders are not static. Over time they can get better or they can get worse, for reasons in and outside of a company's control. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph looks at two Aussie companies that may be scoring what Pat Dorsey sees as a classic own goal when it comes to capital allocation.To submit any questions or feedback, please email mark.lamonica1@morningstar.com or leave us a voicemail to feature on the podcast here.Additional resources from our episodes are available via our website.Audio Producer and mixer: William Ton.

In a listener requested episode, Shani goes through why she uses managed funds and how she chose to use the investment product for the problems that it solves for her.Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column takes readers on a trip to Monte Carlo this week. He looks at the levers that investors can pull to have a more secure retirement, reducing uncertainty for investors. Shani's Future Focus column explores the trade offs that parents are making with private school. In an Investing Compass listener requested column, Shani explores the costs of Government, Catholic and Independent schools, and the impact that these costs can have on your financial outcomes. The concept of economic moats is central to how our analysts weigh up companies. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph taps a classic investing article on the idea of "legacy" versus "reinvestment" moats. As it turns out, the differences could explain why some companies are able to compound in value far faster than others.Australia is undoubtedly in a housing crisis with young, prospective homeowners feeling betrayed by our governments. This frustration can be attributed to appalling public policy failures that have proliferated demand in an already overpriced housing market. This week Sim explores the issue of housing affordability by looking at proposed solutions and their implications.

This episode explores what to do when you receive an inheritance, and the options that you have when you invest. We consider paying off a mortgage and investing in and out of superannuation.Other episodes where we speak about inheritances include: Your options when you inherit a houseHow to incorporate an expected inheritance into a financial planThe documents you need to protect your assetsMark's Unconventional Wisdom column looks at a study showing investors that own passive products get lower returns. He looks at why this is the case and how investors can maximise their outcomes. In a reader requested edition of Bookworm, Joseph explored a simple stock valuation method that features in one of his favourite investing books. By putting the formula to work on an ASX company with household name brands, Joseph was reminded that even the simplest valuation tools are in fact highly complex. Many young investors find purchasing a home out of reach. They find that they are struggling with cost of living and have minimal amounts to contribute towards their investments. Shani's Future Focus runs through a framework that looks at different aspects of your life where you can still set financial goals to help your future self. As the days pass, young Aussies are straying further from being able to buy their own home. Amidst election noise, consistent house price rises and slowing wage growth - it appears there is no end in sight for Australia's housing crisis. Sim's column explores whether millennials can afford to buy a home and what salary they would need to achieve this goal.

We speak about the positives and perils of diversification in your portfolio, and how to find a balance. This week in Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column he challenges the traditional classifications of income and growth stocks. He runs through his focus on dividend growth, rather than just focusing solely on yield. Mark runs through a controversial income pick that he believes offers significant potential for future dividend growth. Core/Satellite is an investment strategy that many financial advisers use for their clients. Shani looks at whether this is something that individual investors should adopt, and whether she has adopted it for her own portfolio. In the latest installment of his Bookworm column, Joseph uses David Dreman's concept of "trigger events" to explain Nvidia's recent market fall. He also earmarks two ASX stocks that appear to lie on opposite sides of this famous contrarian investor's radar. With the proliferation of financial advice available through the media, individuals are often faced with an overwhelming number of investment options. As someone who works in the finance industry with an abundance of research at her disposal, Sim also experiences this paradox of choice. Despite this, her column explores why she chooses not to invest in individual stocks anymore and why this method aligns with her goals. Interested in our investing course?

Insurance is a necessary evil of a holistic financial plan. Some investors avoid enroling or reviewing their insurances.as it's a tedious task that provides no immediate benefit. It however, provides peace of mind and protection at some of the most vulnerable times of your life. It's important to optimise your insurance to make sure you are adequately covered, but also that you are minimising the costs. We go through the best ways to protect yourself.You can view the full article here.Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column focuses on AI this week. He explores why he's not intentionally investing in the AI trend, and why it may not live up to the expectations that investors may have. When it comes to buying individual shares, investors should seek to avoid big losers every bit as much as they vaunt potential winners. Joseph explores Pat Dorsey's "ten minute test" for cutting lower quality companies from consideration quickly. Does the familiar ASX name he puts under the microscope get pass marks? Find out in Joseph's Bookworm column. An Investing Compass listener has asked a question about why Shani invests in managed funds. Shani shows how she's based her investing strategy, and therefore her investing products, around what suits her goals and behaviour the best. Find out what Shani likes about managed funds in her Future Focus column.Ongoing cost of living pressures continue to weigh down on young Aussies trying to fulfil the Australian dream. This raises an important question about the financial viability of raising the next generation. Whilst the crippling price of homeownership is no secret, the cost of having a child is perhaps a lesser discussed issue. With birth rates on the decline, Sim explores whether the average millennial can afford to have children in the current economic climate.Interested in our investing course?

In the latest edition of Bookworm, Joseph sees if Koch's Star Principle for investors, employees and entrepreneurs can be applied to finding promising companies in the stock market. As we head into the federal election this year, the rising cost of education and levels of student debt form a key battleground topic for voters. a sinking number of domestic enrolments indicate individuals are thinking twice before jumping into the higher education system, which begs the question - is university still worth it?Interested in our investing course?

With authentic introspection, Baylor dives into the essence of building character over branding, the significance of marching to one's own rhythm, and the importance of recognizing and valuing the support of others. Among the various insights Baylor imparts, two key themes stand out—the vital practice of focusing on content rather than presentation and the importance of personal cadence in achieving effortless progress. Baylor encourages listeners to be action-oriented, trust their own voices and efforts, and to celebrate the process of striving toward goals, regardless of outcomes. With thousands of hours and a presence in over 110 countries, Baylor's heartfelt words resonate, making this milestone episode a must-listen for anyone aspiring to explore the depths of personal growth and character building.

A Note from James:For 20 years, I've been writing about how much I think people should not go to college, and that college is not the only solution for a career. It could be the worst solution because tuition has risen faster than inflation every single year for the past 50 years.And why is that? Because student loans are a big scam and the government backs them, college presidents always know they're getting their money. They keep raising tuition even faster than society is raising the prices of anything else. James Keyes, former CEO of multibillion-dollar company 7-Eleven, has been CEO of many companies, including Blockbuster, and he wrote a book about the importance of education: Education is Freedom: The Future Is in Your Hands.So guess what? We decided to debate. And I'll admit I'm the sort of person who tends to agree with whoever the last person I speak to is, but he presented some very good arguments and I have to, I have to give them all credit for that. But I'll let you hear the conversation and it's well worth listening to, particularly if you've been wondering about this issue.So, here he is. Let's talk about college.Episode Description:James and corporate leader Jim Keyes debate the relevance of a college education for career success, attributing rising tuition costs and impractical skill sets to modern colleges' downsides. The importance of degrees as a differentiator in the job market is emphasized, with the debate also covering emerging alternatives such as Google certificates. The two later shift to discuss learning and education in the context of business evolution, specifically detailing challenges faced by 7-Eleven in maintaining "freshness" and the role of technology in overcoming these.

What a great book! For anyone who's ever been interested, even for a second in the personal development/ inspirational category, this book, Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential by Brian Johnson... You have to visually see this book. It's 451 chapters, a thousand pages. It's almost like a little cube, but it's very fast to read because every chapter is just one or two pages and it's well done.It interweaves all these hundreds of stories and different authors and philosophers into one cohesive strategy for living your best life. The word Arate means, essentially, everyday living the best life. And this book is about how to do it. There are hundreds of stories and examples.It's also Brian Johnson and his own stories, and we talk about it from various perspectives. In the very beginning, we're talking about how his son is super-interested in chess, which is coincidental to me. So we talk about how he's using Arate with his son, but then we dive into so many different subjects about what it means to activate your heroic potential.One of the funnest podcasts that I've done, I really recommend listening to this one.

a story to tell.It: Una storia può iniziare ovunque, ma permettetemi di portarvi in un luogo famoso, la Piazza Navona.En: A story may begin anywhere, but allow me to take you to a famous place, Piazza Navona.It: Qui si trova Giovanni, un uomo dall'aspetto comune ma con abitudini non così comuni, come quella di mangiare gli spaghetti con un cucchiaio.En: Here we find Giovanni, a man with a common appearance but uncommon habits, such as eating spaghetti with a spoon.It: Giovanni, con i suoi capelli grigi e il viso corroso dal tempo, come le statue di Piazza Navona, si era seduto sotto la fontana dei Quattro Fiumi.En: Giovanni, with his gray hair and face weathered by time, like the statues of Piazza Navona, sat beneath the Fountain of the Four Rivers.It: Il suono lenitivo dell'acqua zampillante faceva da sottofondo al suo pasto solitario.En: The soothing sound of splashing water provided the backdrop for his solitary meal.It: Aprì il suo scatolone di cartone, rivelando una generosa porzione di spaghetti inzuppati nel sugo.En: He opened his cardboard box, revealing a generous portion of spaghetti soaked in sauce.It: Nella piazza, sotto l'ombra trascinante di Sant'Agnese in Agone, il resto del mondo continuava a muoversi.En: In the square, under the dragging shade of Sant'Agnese in Agone, the rest of the world continued to move.It: I turisti passavano, assorti nei loro telefoni, tentando di catturare l'aura eterna della Roma antica.En: Tourists passed by, absorbed in their phones, trying to capture the eternal aura of ancient Rome.It: I bambini ridevano e correva intorno alla fontana, le loro voci risuonavano in contrasto con l'atmosfera sospesa della piazza.En: Children laughed and ran around the fountain, their voices contrasting with the suspended atmosphere of the square.It: Ma Giovanni rimase impassibile, coinvolto nel suo strano rituale.En: But Giovanni remained impassive, engrossed in his strange ritual.It: Alzando il cucchiaio di metallo, raccolse un po' di spaghetti come si farebbe con una minestra.En: Lifting his metal spoon, he scooped up some spaghetti as one would do with soup.It: C'erano occhiate, e sussurri tra la gente intorno a lui.En: There were glances and whispers among the people around him.It: Ma Giovanni, noncurante, continuò a godere del suo pasto.En: But Giovanni, undeterred, continued to enjoy his meal.It: Fu proprio allora che un bambino, incuriosito dall'insolito scenario, si staccò dal gruppo di compagni e si avvicinò a Giovanni.En: It was then that a child, intrigued by the unusual scene, detached himself from the group of friends and approached Giovanni.It: Guardò per un momento Giovanni e poi il cucchiaio.En: He looked at Giovanni for a moment, then at the spoon.It: "Perché mangi gli spaghetti con un cucchiaio?"En: "Why do you eat spaghetti with a spoon?"It: chiese, i suoi grandi occhi castani lampeggiavano di curiosità.En: he asked, his big brown eyes filled with curiosity.It: Giovanni sorrise, i suoi occhi si riempirono di un calore gentile.En: Giovanni smiled, his eyes filled with gentle warmth.It: "Perché a volte," rispose, "bisogna fare le cose un po' diversamente per apprezzarle meglio".En: "Because sometimes," he replied, "you have to do things a little differently to appreciate them better."It: Furono poche parole, ma quelle parole rimasero con il bambino.En: Those were few words, but those words stayed with the child.It: Se ne andò con un senso di ammirazione e si unì di nuovo ai suoi amici, portando con sé un piccolo pezzo di saggezza.En: He left with a sense of admiration and rejoined his friends, carrying with him a small piece of wisdom.It: La piazza tornò al suo ritmo normale, la curiosità sorse e poi svanì.En: The square returned to its normal rhythm, curiosity arose and then faded away.It: Giovanni finì il suo pasto, ripose il cucchiaio nel scatolone e si alzò.En: Giovanni finished his meal, placed the spoon back in the box, and stood up.It: Se ne andò, lasciando la Piazza Navona e i suoi misteri dietro di sé.En: He walked away, leaving behind Piazza Navona and its mysteries.It: Quella sera, un bambino a casa mangiò i propri spaghetti con un cucchiaio.En: That evening, a child at home ate his own spaghetti with a spoon.It: Una storia certamente iniziata in modo insolito, passò alla normalità, e alla fine, finì su un tono saggio, proprio come le pietre della Piazza Navona.En: A story that had certainly begun unusually transitioned into normalcy, and in the end, it concluded on a wise note, just like the stones of Piazza Navona.It: Giovanni andò avanti con la sua abitudine insolita, e la piazza tornò al suo ritmo normale.En: Giovanni continued with his unusual habit, and the square returned to its regular pace.It: Ma per un bambino, quella giornata cambiò la sua prospettiva, lasciandolo con un ricordo da tesaurizzare e una storia da raccontare.En: But for one child, that day changed his perspective, leaving him with a cherished memory and a story to tell.
