Get Rich Slow Club
145. SHORTS: How do risk and volatility work?
Across the investing landscape, disclaimers about risk and volatility abound. You’ll often see statements like “All investments carry risk” and “something something market volatility”. And sure, they can be a buzzkill, but they serve a crucial purpose. Think of them as a reminder from your parents to eat your vegetables – only for your money.
But in the context of investing, what do “risk” and “volatility” actually mean? And how do they relate to YOUR plans to invest? That, dear listener, is what this Get Rich Slow Club short is all about.

165. Why putting off your will could cost your family thousands
16:12|Look, no-one wants to talk about their own will. It pretty much ties with “politics at family gatherings” and “ice-breakers in the workplace” for topics we’d rather avoid. However, writing your own will in advance won’t just spare your family some administrative headaches. It can also save them money – thousands, as this episode’s title rightly suggests.In this session, the Get Rich Slow Club explore why preparing your will early could be the smart financial move. They also detail key considerations around will-writing, and how you can set yourself up for success.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeHow To Not Work ForeverDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

Things to do with your super before EOFY | super Q&A
20:46|Superannuation is a lot like your spleen: you spend most of your life not thinking about it, but when you need it, you’re THRILLED it exists. And if super is like a spleen, then EOFY is much like a checkup. Or a detox. Or a… spleen upgrade of some kind……alright, so this metaphor has lost its thread a bit. HOWEVER, the key point is this: the leadup to EOFY is an opportunity to make the most of your super. And if that sounds a bit vague, don’t worry – this episode is here to help!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeHow To Not Work ForeverDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

Why did Scott Pape recommend this LIC? | AFIC
33:59|Listed Investment Companies (LICs) have a devoted following within the long-term investing community. However, conversations on social media and podcasts often focus on exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Of course, no asset is going to be perfect for EVERY investor, as goals and preferences change between people. However, along with a range of other investing vehicles, the Get Rich Slow Club believes there’s a lot to like about LICs.That’s why Tash is thrilled to host Geoff Driver, General Manager of Australian Foundation Investment Company (AFIC).

How to retire early with Captain FI
54:37|“Financial Independence, Retire Early” – or “FIRE” – is a concept that Tash and Ana have discussed a few times. And I mean, come on – it sounds pretty amazing, no? Asking whether you would like a FIRE’d future is sort of like asking if you’d like to win the lottery. Who would say no if given the chance?In truth, though, reaching FIRE status requires an entire lifestyle. Some people love the challenge of living this way, while others might shudder at the prospect. If you’re not sure which category you fall into, but you’d like to reach FIRE, this session is for you.Why, you ask? Because in this episode, Tash and Ana are joined by renowned FIRE expert Captain FI to discuss all things FIRE.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeHow To Not Work ForeverDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

27:20|If you’re listening to this podcast, you’re probably pretty committed to managing your money. Even so, it’s normal to become stuck in a money rut from time to time. It happens to the best of us, and it often only requires patience and consistency to escape.Other ruts, though, might require a complete overhaul.

Of course, there’s a reason we have these conversations: by investing, we hope to propel ourselves towards the lives we want.

What’s the one thing you’ve always wanted to do, but won’t admit to yourself? And to get more existential: at the end of your life, what will you have regretted NOT doing?Join the Get Rich Slow Club for a foray into how you can fulfill your unspoken dream without turning your life upside down!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeHow To Not Work ForeverDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.
