Receiving dividends can be one of the great joys of investing. For starters, they can serve as a reward for your investing patience. Secondly, if you reinvest them wisely, and the market conditions are favourable, they can maximise the effects of compound interest. However, the act of navigating the dividends process can sometimes feel a bit murky.To clear the waters, Tash and Ana devote this episode to all things dividends. Throughout this session, they cover what dividends are, how they’re paid, and which investments have historically paid them. They also explore how to reinvest any dividends you earn, along with the pros and cons of dividend reinvestment plans.

Starting a business can be an effective way to accelerate your wealth, but it doesn’t come without risk. The problem is, not many entrepreneurs are willing to speak openly about the mistakes they’ve made in their own businesses.

Recently, a Get Rich Slow Club listener asked Tash and Ana an interesting question (which we’ve paraphrased below):“I invest in two ETFs which track the S&P 500 and the ASX 200. Should I be diversifying even more, or should I stick to what feels good (and easy), which is automatically investing in the ETFs I currently have?”Tash and Ana love questions like this, because they get to the crux of getting rich slow. That’s why they’ve committed this episode to approaching it from every angle.

Share registries are like franking credits or family trusts: most people don’t think about them until they become investors. In fact, if you’ve never (or rarely) invested before, your eyes might have understandably glazed over at “share registries”.However, whether you’re a would-be, novice, or seasoned investor, it pays to learn more about share registries.

“Financial Independence Retire Early – or FIRE”. The name is so epic that the concept practically sells itself. However, there’s nothing clickbaity about the road to FIRE.

Many investors are perfectly happy to invest in just one ETF (or none, for that matter). However, some of our listeners prefer to invest in a diverse portfolio of Exchange-Traded Funds. For these investors, choosing the right ETF pairing can make a big difference. After all, some ETFs overlap in their assets, while others are diametrically opposed in their strategies.In this episode, Natasha Etschmann (Tash Invests) and Ana Kresina (Head of Product & Community at Pearler) discuss which ETFs pair well together. They also detail what to look for if you’re trying to choose complementary ETFs.

In the investing space, there are two concepts which have gained a lot of traction lately. One is “venture capital” – or, to put it oversimply, investment in startups. The other is “impact investing” or “sustainable investing”, which we’ve touched on in a previous episode. That’s why the Get Rich Slow Club is thrilled, then, to host a guest who combines expertise in both.In this episode, Natasha Etschmann (Tash Invests) and Ana Kresina (Head of Product & Community at Pearler) chat with Zarmeen Pavri.

Are you an Australian citizen who has started a local uni degree in the last 35 years? If so, you’ll know about HECS-HELP debt. In the early stages of your career, HECS-HELP debt can be pretty easy to forget about. For starters, you don’t need to start making payments until your income reaches a certain threshold. And even then, it’s deducted from your salary, meaning it simply feels like another form of tax. It stands to reason, then, that many people would decide to let time and pre-tax income whittle it away.But here’s the kicker: the more you earn, the more you’re required to pay towards the principle. And here’s the second kicker: the debt is indexed to inflation. In other words, when inflation increases, so does what remains of your HECS-HELP debt. Armed with this knowledge, is it worth making additional payments to clear your HECS-HELP debt?In this session, Natasha Etschmann (Tash Invests) and Ana Kresina (Head of Product & Community at Pearler) explore this very topic. In doing so, they discuss how HECS-HELP debt works, and then dissect the arguments for and against paying it off early.

At the Get Rich Slow Club, there are (among other things) two topics we love discussing. One of them is wage transparency, financial literacy, and closing the gender pay gap.

The Get Rich Slow Club has explored the topic of financial wellness on more than one occasion. In this episode, we take it a step further and detail the relationship between debt and mental health. When debt is allowed to spiral, its effect on our mental health can be as dire as its impact on our finances.

That’s why, in this session, Natasha Etschmann (Tash Invests) and Ana Kresina (Head of Product & Community at Pearler) look at Pearler’s most popular ETFs in 2023.

If you’ve seen, heard, or read any financial content, you’ve probably stumbled across this phrase: “speak to a financial adviser.” Usually, it comes from content creators who don’t want to mislead their audience, or appear to provide recommendations. While one of our co-hosts is licensed to give financial advice, you’ll hear it plenty on this show as well. The reasons behind it are understandable – generalised content doesn’t account for specific circumstances, and shouldn’t be construed as advice.But, real talk: do most people need a financial adviser? Do they offer genuine value to would-be and current investors? Or do content creators simply mention them to cover themselves?To answer this question, Natasha Etschmann (Tash Invests) and Ana Kresina (Head of Product & Community at Pearler) sit down with Deline Jacovides, the founder of financial advisory group Mazi Wealth. In this episode, Deline, Tash, and Ana discuss when to seek a financial adviser, and how to find one. They also explore how to ensure your financial adviser is qualified, and what questions to ask for the best results.@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.

“Money can’t buy you happiness.” It’s an expression most of us have heard for most of our lives. Of course, anyone who’s ever struggled to pay their rent, bills, or mortgage may beg to differ.
