With Owen Rask, we debate the risk-reward trade-off and the purpose of investing when returns aren’t guaranteed. Is it worth taking the plunge, or should we play it safe?We explore fears of total market collapse and the impact of slowing population growth, with lessons from Japan’s stagnation.

At the Get Rich Slow Club, we often talk about investing and financial literacy in aspirational terms. We showcase people who have retired early after investing in shares, or built their way towards property empires. However, there’s another, deeper reality at play: sometimes, investing can make the difference between stability and disaster.Perhaps no-one better exemplifies this than Marion Mays – money EQ and IQ coach, and founder of Money Strong. Following the birth of her first child, Marion contended with a string of hurdles. These spanned from her transition to becoming a sole parent, to health and developmental issues which required her to be a full-time carer for her son for seven years.Despite these challenges, Marion managed to stay afloat thanks to the financial buffers she had built for herself. Now, Marion is committed to ensuring other historically marginalised Australians have the financial tools they need to thrive.Think of this episode as your financial disaster preparedness kit!@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.

This podcast has spoken about ETFs – or exchange-traded funds – on many occasions. A kind of all-in-one investment, ETFs seek to track a particular index, commodity, sector, or basket of assets. In recent years, they’ve become popular with long-term investors who wish to diversify in one buy.Okay, ETFs – we get those. But what about LICs, or Listed Investment Companies? If you read about both, they can seem quite similar; in fact, many people refer to both LICs and ETFs as baskets of assets. In truth, though, LICs and ETFs have some marked differences. And depending on your investment goals, one may suit you in ways that the other doesn’t.Worry not, for after this episode, you’ll have a clearer idea of which is right for you!@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.

Anyone who has spent time on TikTok, Instagram, or even Facebook will be familiar with the Comparison Trap. We log on, scroll for a while, and we find a peer who’s living a seemingly perfect life. It doesn’t make sense: the poster is your age, and earns around your wage. How can they afford to live a life of luxury when you feel like you’re struggling to get ahead?Recently, a TikTok reel by @jen.rothwell touched on this very topic. And in this session, @tashinvests and Olivia from Her Money’s Worth use this reel as a launchpad to discuss the Comparison Trap.

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.

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.

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.

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.

For this endeavour, they’re joined by Pearler CEO and co-founder Nick Nicolaides.

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.

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.

We love questions at the Get Rich Slow Club. And since launching, one question has appeared frequently from our community. People have used different wording, but it pretty much boils down to:“How did @Tashinvests become @Tashinvests?”Sure enough, her transformation from Natasha Etschmann the support worker into @Tashinvests the content creator didn’t happen overnight. It also isn’t something we could summarise in a sentence. HOWEVER, someone MIGHT be able to summarise it in a podcast episode.

A phrase you’ll often hear on this podcast is: “When in doubt, speak to a financial adviser”. The key reason we suggest this is because financial advisers can offer personalised advice, which is obviously something that no podcast can do. Beyond that, though, financial advisers are licensed to comment on financial matters. And, when you find a good one, they can frame things in a light you may never have considered before.That’s why Tash is thrilled to host financial adviser and founder of Pivot Wealth, Ben Nash. In their chat, they dive into the world of Real Estate Investment Trusts, from “how do they compare to physical property?”, to “What’s the deal with buying property through a trust?”.Bring your REIT queries, and Ben and Tash will bring some ideas!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeHow To Not Work ForeverVote for the Get Rich Slow Club in the Australian Podcast AwardsDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

There are countless TED Talks, LinkedIn posts, and subreddits dedicated to career hacks. But for all the content-friendly ideas out there, one hack seldom rates a mention: personal branding.

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.

Knowing where to begin as a first home buyer can be a challenge. Alien terms abound – from “home loan pre-approval” to “stamp duty”. One such term is “mortgage broker”, which manages to sound both vague and specific at the same time. Fortunately, mortgage brokers don’t need to be another source of confusion. In fact, they can shed light on many of the mysteries surrounding first time home ownership. What’s more, they can help you navigate the sometimes labyrinthine mortgage application process.In this episode, Tash from the Get Rich Slow Club chats with Kobe Clarke-Jacobs from Finance with Kobe. Together, they explore how mortgage brokers can help first home buyers. This includes how brokers make their money from helping clients; which other professionals a first home buyer might want to see; and the government schemes from which a first home buyer might benefit.Tune in to prepare your first home buyer’s checklist!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeHow To Not Work ForeverVote for the Get Rich Slow Club in the Australian Podcast AwardsDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

You may have met someone who relocated for work. You may have done it yourself. Whether it’s for a higher-paying role, cheaper real estate, or simply a tree change, it can be an appealing thought. But when you weigh up all of the competing financial factors, is relocating for work worth it?This obviously isn’t a question anyone can answer with a simple “yes” or “no”.

And if you haven’t, we suggest Googling it, because we don’t want to curse in the episode description.For this Get Rich Slow Club session, Tash and Ana tackle some of their favourite personal finance-focused AITA threads.

Recently, we received an interesting community question, which boiled down to:“What can you tell me about bonds? I’d be interested in investing in them as a way to balance risk, but I haven’t found many content creators who talk about them.”In this episode, Tash and Ana seek to remedy this. As part of their bond analysis, they chat with Scott Nanfro from Guideway Services.

Homes are expensive. They’re hard to buy if you don’t already own one. Same page? Great.In recent years, government programs such as the First Home Super Saver (FHSS) scheme have become more common. The aim of these schemes is to remove some of the barriers to home ownership. However, while the FHSS aims to augment your deposit savings rate, it doesn’t reduce the size of the deposit required.The First Home Guarantee seeks to change that. Via the First Home Guarantee, an eligible buyer only requires a deposit of 5% to secure a mortgage. But, as with many government-backed schemes, there are an array of caveats and conditions at play. To help you know whether it’s right for you, we spend this session covering it from A to Z. feat.

In doing so, their aim was to remove the shroud of uncertainty that so often surrounds tax time.However, the Get Rich Slow Club is, first and foremost, a community-led podcast. That’s why, in this episode, Tash and Natalie respond to tax-related questions from their listeners.From “Is it worth seeing an accountant if I earn a low income?” to “Do I need to pay tax on my shares if I haven’t withdrawn anything from them?”, these queries run the gamut.

Value investing is a strategy often favoured by those seeking to play a more active role in their investments. Touted by Warren Buffett, it involves finding companies that the investor believes to be undervalued, then buying them before the market recognises their worth.To be fair, it’s not as speculative as some other active styles of investing. Even so, its focus on beating the market puts it at odds with the Get Rich Slow philosophy. It also usually prioritises individual shares over ETFs, which long-time listeners will know we love.Of course, you might not share the Get Rich Slow Club’s reservations around value investing. Seeking potentially undervalued individual shares over ETFs might align perfectly with your risk tolerance. So, in the spirit of open dialogue, Tash and Ana spend this episode delving into value investing. To add more flavour to the discussion, they’re joined by Brandon from New Money – a staunch supporter of value investing.Whether you prefer individual shares or ETFs, you won’t want to miss this!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

In case you’ve missed it, the First Home Super Saver (FHSS) scheme is an initiative that does what the name suggests. With the FHSS, you can save for your first home deposit within your superannuation. By doing so, you can aim to benefit from certain advantages that don’t apply to shares or savings accounts.Like so much in super, the details surrounding the FHSS can feel a bit muddled. That’s why Tash and Ana have devoted this session to discussing the FHSS, how it works, and how it can help you save for a home. Give them an episode, and they’ll give you a primer in the First Home Super Saver scheme!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

The name “Warren Buffett” has almost become synonymous with investing success. As the 10th richest person in the world, Warren Buffett is arguably one of the world’s most famous investors. You’d be forgiven, then, for assuming his investing strategy involves access to assets most of us could never even fathom. Surely, without his deep pockets and mind for numbers, his approach would be too risky for the rest of us.…right?Actually, no. For all his investing returns, Warren Buffett’s investing philosophy closely resembles that of the Get Rich Slow Club. It’s steady, methodical, at times boring, and accessible to everyone. And in this session, Tash chats with Brandon from New Money about how Buffett does it. Your crash course in Warren Buffett’s investing strategy awaits!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

Conversations around gender-based financial inequality often focus on how far we’ve come as a society. While it’s important to celebrate, we also shouldn’t lose sight of how much change remains ahead of us. To this day, financial hardship and homelessness still disproportionately affect women in Australia. And for all of our collective focus on individual efforts, there needs to be systemic financial change if we want to see results.In this episode, Tash and Ana speak with someone who is striving to bring this systemic inequality to an end. A financial educator at Sprout Education, Jenny Rolfe-Wallace also hosts the international award-winning podcast It’s Not About The Money (Australia). Join Jenny as she talks with the Get Rich Slow Club about financial intersectionality, gender-based poverty, and what we can do about it.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

Tash and Ana’s conversations with Emma from The Broke Generation have become the stuff of legend. In past episodes, they’ve covered an array of topics, spanning from budgeting techniques to moisturiser. This time around, they get a bit more philosophical – and you’ll be glad they did.In this session, Emma shares her learnings from a year of sacrifice, and how the experience shaped her money habits. By finding lessons in adversity, we’re able to build resilience and inform our get-rich-slow strategies at the same time. And that’s precisely what Tash, Ana and Emma hope you take from this ep.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

Tash and Ana recently received a thought-provoking question from a listener named Angela:“I’m new to the world of investing and looking to get started. What are the differences between putting more money into superannuation, compared to ETFs? I’m a sole trader, so I can decide how much I invest in super.”Firstly – thanks for sharing your question, Angela! Secondly – this is a pertinent topic, since we’ve received versions of this questions from multiple listeners. That’s why, in this episode, we set out to compare the potential pros and cons of super and ETFs. As a bonus, we also discuss the tax changes in this new financial year, and how they may impact you.Enjoy!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

Emma from The Broke Generation has shared some deep wisdom on this podcast. However, while practical strategies and structured insights are useful guides, there are moments in which we learn all we need from a single experience.In this session, Tash details how the purchase of a $100 moisturiser altered her relationship with money. At a glance, it seems like a strange catalyst for change. However, for Tash, the moisturiser symbolised a fork in the road – a choice about the life she wanted to live. Whether or not you use moisturiser yourself, you’ll be able to relate; we all have our own “$100 moisturiser”, and how we respond to it can influence how we manage our finances.Tune in for the anecdotes, and leave with a fresh perspective on your own money habits!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

As a general rule, the Get Rich Slow Club approaches credit card points with a wary eye. Anything that compels us into spending more money clashes with our philosophy, and points can fall into that category. With that said, there are obviously times when we need (or simply want) to spend money. At moments like these, points can be a nifty hack in our quest to get rich slow.That’s why, in this episode, Tash and Ana dive into the weird world of bonus points. Beyond providing an overview on how they work, they also compare the pros and cons of different points systems; explore how to earn them easily; and discuss how to spend them for maximum effect.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

VDHG is a very popular investment within the Australian long-term investing community. It was no surprise, then, when a listener recently asked us:“Is investing in VDHG long-term a good option?”At the Get Rich Slow Club, we don’t like to deal in “good investments” or “bad investments”. After all, the right investment for you might be the wrong choice for someone else. That’s because VDHG’s (or any asset’s) suitability for you can depend on a range of factors, from your risk tolerance, to the amount you want to invest.In this session, we discuss these different factors in-depth. By doing so, we hope to help you feel empowered about choosing your investments – whether it’s VDHG or anything else.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.
