Western Australia's suburbs are heating up, with investors who time it right and plan well standing to reap big rewards. Smart Property Investment's Phil Tarrant and Pure Property Investment's Paul Glossop return with a fresh edition of the FAST 50 report, revealing the top suburbs for property investment in 2026. Western Australia is attracting investors with its relative affordability, with WA's Fast 50 suburbs sitting around $644,000 (excluding top-tier areas), offering options across different budgets. Suburbs like Armadale, Mandurah, and Forestville have been attracting investors with substantial price increases, while regional spots like Geraldton deliver strong rental yields but come with higher lending risk due to industry reliance. While promising, Phil and Paul emphasise that Western Australia isn't a one-size-fits-all market and timing remains key, with investors urged to align purchases with their strategy with the help of the FAST 50 report – now available – to guide smarter, more informed decisions.

Episode 3160: Wanderer explains how incorporating preferred shares into a retirement portfolio can mitigate sequence-of-return risk by boosting income during the vulnerable early years of retirement. By swapping part of their bond allocation for these higher-yielding, bond-like assets, early retirees can increase cash flow while strategically managing volatility and cost. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.millennial-revolution.com/invest/yield-shield/the-yield-shield-preferred-shares/ Quotes to ponder: "A Preferred Share is kind of a mix between a stock and a bond." "When you retire, you basically take a portion of your bond allocation and swap it for Preferreds." "Our longer term plan as our portfolio grows (and our dependence on our Yield Shield decreases) is to exit these positions and pivot back towards a normal bond ETF."

Wisdom from above is willing to yield, willing to be entreated upon, persuaded, willing in obedience, submissive, and slow. Join us as Pastor Greg dives into a practical look at this fourth description of heavenly wisdom.
"In the reign of the wicked Emperor Maximilian, there lived in Alexandria a maiden, Theodora, well-educated and of noble lineage. She was brought to trial before the pagans for her Christian faith. After long interrogation and torture for the Faith, the prince, her tormentor, ordered that she be thrown into a brothel and the soldiers given free access to her to indulge their carnal lusts. Theodora prayed fervently to God to save her from defilement, and, when she had prayed, a soldier called Didymus came in to her and told her that he was a servant of Christ. He dressed her in his soldier's garb and himself in her dress, then let her out and remained in the brothel himself. He was seized and brought before the judge, where he acknowledged that he was a Christian and had saved Theodora, and was now prepared to die for Christ. He was condemned to death and taken out to the place of execution. Theodora ran up to him there and cried out: 'Although you saved my honour, I did not ask you to save me from death. Yield the martyr's death to me!' Didymus replied: 'My beloved sister, do not hinder my death for Christ, nor the washing of my sins in my blood.' Hearing this exchange, the pagans condemned them both to death, and they were beheaded and their bodies burned. They suffered with honour and received eternal wreaths of glory in Alexandria in the year 304." (Prologue)

At the AgX Booth in Denver we chatted with some recent winners of the NCGA High Yield Contest to unpack what it truly takes to push corn yields to the limit. We learn about their farm background, what motivated them to enter the contest, and how their winning crop compared to their usual yields.They walk us through their hybrid selection, fertility program, and how they incorporated biologicals, foliar feeds, and plant growth regulators to unlock every ounce of potential in the field. From variable-rate planting and precision nutrient applications to scouting techniques and drone use, this grower blends old-school effort with new-school tech.We also hear the lessons they've learned—the mistakes made, key takeaways, and small tweaks that can help any farmer boost their productivity. And of course, we explore the competitive edge: how intense the contest is, what it feels like to win, and what comes next in the pursuit of even bigger yields. Want Farm4Profit Merch?
