89. "Should I split the money I made selling shares?"... and more dilemmas
We had a lot of fun running a personal finance edition of AITA a few episodes back. More importantly, our listeners seemed to enjoy it as well – which is why we’ve chosen to run it again. This time, the dilemmas are juicer than ever.
For the first dilemma, we tackle an inheritance-based quandary, in which a poster asks:
“AITA for not sharing the money I made selling the stocks I inherited when my sister made a lot less selling the stocks she inherited?”
Next, we discuss an issue in a share house:
“AITA for thinking my flatmate should replace my blender after she broke it?”
Finally, we explore a conundrum in which the poster won some money – and is still reluctant to loan their sister $25,000.
If you’ve lived through any of these dilemmas, you’ll want to hear this session for its insights. And if you haven’t, you’ll want to hear it for the drama.

106. How to pay off your mortgage early
16:54|Do you know what the word “mortgage” actually means? It was originally a French term which – quite literally – translated to “death pledge”. In other words, it was envisaged as a debt which can follow you to the grave. These days, it doesn’t even stop there – mortgages often transfer to next of kin upon a mortgagee’s death. But do mortgages really need to haunt every inch of our mortal coal, latching onto our loved ones when we leave the realm of the living?No. No they don’t. And in this episode, you can hear some strategies for prematurely snuffing that debt pledge from existence.@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.

Buying a home vs renting: which is smarter financially?
19:14|Let’s say you could travel back in time to the early ‘90s. If you were to ask a thirtysomething Boomer which decision is smarter – buying a home or renting – they’d likely laugh in your face. Sure, interest rates were higher (as older Aussies often bring up), but prices were lower compared to the average income. Like, much lower. In the face of these figures, one choice stood out as the more sensible option.But these days? It’s not so cut and dry. There are an array of factors which can influence your decision in this current climate… so many, that we won’t try to cram them into this brief description. Instead, we’ll leave it to Tash and Ana to crunch the numbers, compare the stats, and help you find your answer.Enjoy!@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.

Investing for kids – which app is the best?
18:51|Back in episode 29, we covered some of the key ways that parents or family members can invest for kids. This time, the Get Rich Slow Club is going much deeper, and comparing some of the most popular kids’ investing apps in Australia. Of course, we recognise that families take an array of different shapes. Some people may want to invest for their children (either current or future); some might have friends’ or families’ kids for whom they would like to invest; and some people don’t want or aren’t able to have kids. If children are a difficult topic for you, please feel free to skip this episode. However, should you wish to understand more about the kids’ investing options out there, this session could 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.

How to teach kids about money and investing
40:10|Teaching kids about responsibility can be a challenge. Teaching adults about money can also be hard. It’s understandable, then, that many people believe that teaching kids about money is an enormous hill to climb. By contrast, we believe that talking to kids about money is a lot like long-term investing: the best time to start is today.That’s why, in this session, the Get Rich Slow Club focus on teaching kids about money and investing. For this endeavour, they’re joined by Pearler CEO and co-founder Nick Nicolaides.

Travelling on a budget - our best travel hacks
18:54|Smashed avo on toast incurs a lot of blame for the wealth divide, but there’s another pursuit that attracts even more criticism: travel. “No wonder young people can’t afford a home,” a lot of headlines decry. “They’re spending all of their money on trips overseas!”It likely won’t surprise you to hear this, but we’ll say it anyway: getting rich slow doesn’t prohibit travelling. Sure, depending on your timeline, you might need to make some compromises. But provided you apply some budgetary discipline, you can have your passport and use it too.To help you prepare, Tash and Ana share their top trips for planning Get Rich Slow Club-friendly holidays.

18:00|Recently, a Get Rich Slow Club listener sent Tash and Ana an interesting question:“I’ve been investing into low-cost ETFs for almost a year now. Everything is going really well; I’ve automated all of the payments, so I don’t have to lift a finger.“The only problem is that it’s really boring. Everyone says it’s how investing should be, but I really think I need a way to spice things up and stay interested. Any suggestions?”Firstly, thanks for asking the question. Secondly, congratulations! The fact that you’re finding it boring is a good problem to have, and suggests that you’ve been investing sensibly. Thirdly, you’re certainly not alone – a lot of long-term investors can find the process boring. That’s why, in this episode, we’ll be exploring some options for spicing up our investing approach whilst still remaining true to our “get rich slow” principles.Vote for the Get Rich Slow Club in the Australian Podcast Awards@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.
