Oh yes - and it’s dedicated to three awesome listeners of the podcast! Alison, Sue and Peter - this one’s for you! No Lake Weirdo for you!

The Secret to Long Term Investing (and how I lost $2million)
Wednesday Nov 10, 2021
Wednesday Nov 10, 2021
Over a seven year journey I estimate that I lost $2 million. The reason is because I didn’t stick to my investing strategy. What is the reason you invest in property? Too many people move through their investment journey without knowing the answer to this question. I personally have invested in real estate using 22 different strategies, and now I know what works for me and many others. Take it from me - you can’t count on just figuring it out as you go, you actually have to sit down and think about it. This is a raw and big conversation on what it takes to create long term wealth.
On this episode I discuss -
15:21 - My $2 million mistake
19:00 - The #1 secret to investment success
29:19 - The cost of skipping the long game
33:21 - What it really looks like to play the long game
38:44 - Three ways to generate cash
