The ultimate financial freedom goal is being in a

The ultimate financial freedom goal is being in a position where you have enough investments generating enough income so that you don’t have to work, unless you want to.

This goal might feel a long way off.

But you can work slowly and steadily towards financial freedom every single day.

You just need to start turning some of the income you earn now into savings and investments that will help support you in the future.

And the sooner you can do that then the sooner you will be able to start making decisions that aren’t about money, but about what is important to you.

As we approach the deadline for contributions this

As we approach the deadline for contributions this financial year, it's essential to stay informed about your options, not just for now but for future financial planning.⁠
⁠
Let me give you a bit of context about a strategy that's been gaining traction in recent years:⁠
⁠
In the past, only self-employed individuals could make what was called a 'deductible' contribution to their super. My self-employed clients often sought advice towards the end of the financial year to optimise their tax situation by making lump sum contributions to their super (and claiming a tax deduction for them).⁠
⁠
However, things have changed. Nowadays, employees can also make these tax-deductible one-off contributions at any time during the financial year. It's a strategy that can save considerable tax for clients and help boost their wealth.⁠
⁠
Here are some key points to know about making these contributions, now termed 'concessional contributions' →⁠
⁠
Remember, while I've provided this information to educate you, it's crucial to consider your personal circumstances and possibly seek professional advice tailored to your situation. Financial decisions are personal, and thorough research or expert guidance can help you make informed choices.

Let's talk about foolproofing your finances agains

Let's talk about foolproofing your finances against surprises: emergency funds.⁠
⁠
Given the rollercoaster ride of the past year and the pressure on our daily cost of living, it's essential to prepare for the unexpected. Emergency funds might not sound exciting, but they help to foolproof our cash flow plan so that when an unexpected expense pops up we can continue on without the financial set-back or compromise.⁠

Fan of “buy now/pay later”?⁠ ⁠ Yeah, I nev

Fan of “buy now/pay later”?⁠
⁠
Yeah, I never have been. 🙅🏼‍♀️⁠
⁠
The NOW part might sound good, it’s the LATER part that concerns me as it has the potential to set you up for multiple failures.⁠
⁠
❌ You’re more likely to overspend because impulse buys are encouraged, especially as you head to the checkout online.⁠
⁠
❌ You’re most likely purchasing something you can’t afford just *yet*emphasis on the yet because with financial planning comes financial power⁠
⁠
❌ Interest-free looks good on paper but late fees very much still exist in the BNPL world⁠
⁠
❌ If home ownership is a goal, this “convenience” is considered a line of credit.⁠
⁠
There’s a reason why the government is currently looking to regulate this form of lending [bring it on] so please, pause and think about your later.⁠

You know, sometimes it's easy to get caught up in

You know, sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life without stopping to consider what truly matters. But here's a simple truth: what you need to live on directly influences what you need to do.

Think about it. Your basic necessities—like food, shelter, and utilities—form the foundation of your lifestyle. They determine the minimum income required to sustain yourself and your loved ones.

So, when it comes to setting financial goals and making decisions about your career, education, or investments, it's essential to keep your needs in mind. Understanding what you need to live on, I often refer to this as ‘knowing your numbers', gives you a baseline to work with.

Sure, we all have dreams and aspirations that extend beyond our basic needs. But by starting with a solid understanding of what you need to maintain your base level lifestyle, you can make more informed and intentional decisions about how to pursue your goals.

Ultimately, it's about finding a balance between living for today and planning for tomorrow. And your goals, values and priorities should inform how to divide your money wisely between the two.

It’s more often than not that when we hear any c

It’s more often than not that when we hear any chat about superannuation, we don’t think it applies to us because we’re not retired.

Truth is, super conversations aren’t just for retirees.

To prepare you for retirement and set yourself up retire comfortably, the ground work you do in your 30’s and 40’s is just as important as the work you do with your super in your 50’s and 60’s and I’m not simply talking about the amount of super you put away month to month, I’m talking about understanding what super is, cutting through the jargon, getting advice on funds - all of those things.

The last thing you want to do is turn up to retirement unprepared because it is as big a life event as starting a family.

Start reading and start talking NOW.

By viewing super as your ‘investment’ and building it into your overall wealth building strategy now, your “in-20-years-from-now” self will love you for it.

I mean seriously love you for it.

And if you just don’t know where to start, well you’re in the right place!

This is your reminder that wealth isn’t defined

This is your reminder that wealth isn’t defined by owning designer bags or luxury cars, flying first class to Europe or how big your home/s are.

While society often paints wealth (and financial success) as luxury holidays and designer items, true wealth is a richer tapestry. We need to remember it's deeply personal and multifaceted, and in my opinion, nothing to do with material possessions.

I believe that wealth is about having the freedom to pursue your passions and shape your life on your own terms. I believe in balance too, being able to enjoy your lifestyle now, while also building a solid foundation for the future. It shouldn’t be all work and no pleasure either, work out what’s most important and build your plan to incorporate this. Whether it be spending time with loved ones, pursuing hobbies that light you up or contributing to causes that align with your values.

That's why setting goals tailored to your personal aspirations is vital. Because financial success isn't a one-size-fits-all concept—it means different things to different people. By defining what wealth, financial security and financial success means to you, you can start to build your plan and pave the way for a journey toward both financial and personal fulfilment.

So, let's shift our perspective on wealth and know that you can be financially successful without the designer items!

As a financial advisor, I've seen firsthand how money issues can be at the heart of relationship challenges.

According to Relationships Australia, financial stress is a significant factor in relationship breakdowns, with 7 out of 10 couples experiencing tension due to financial matters.

Our emotional needs often manifest in how we handle money. Tension, anger, resentment, or blame about finances usually stem from deeper issues related to our dreams and fears, not the money itself.

Here are some tips for starting the money conversation in a relationship. ➡️

No need for secrets or complex strategies when it

No need for secrets or complex strategies when it comes to financial success. Let's keep it simple and focus on the basics:⁠
⁠
✨ Spend Less Than You Earn: It's the fundamental rule for financial stability. By living within your means, you create room for saving, investing, or paying off debt.⁠
⁠
✨ Have a Strategy for Debt: Debt can weigh heavily if not managed wisely. Prioritise paying off high-interest debt, consider consolidation, and negotiate repayment terms to regain control.⁠
⁠
✨ Invest in the Long Term: Investing isn't about quick gains; it's about building wealth over time. Stay patient, diversify your portfolio, and align your investments with your long-term goals.⁠
⁠
✨ Set Goals: Clear financial goals provide direction and motivation. Whether it's saving for a dream vacation or planning for retirement, having a roadmap helps you make intentional decisions.⁠
⁠
✨ Avoid Keeping Up with the Joneses: Resist the urge to overspend to impress others. Focus on living authentically and align your spending with your values and priorities.⁠
⁠
With these simple principles in mind, you can navigate your financial journey with confidence and clarity.

You know, it's a common misconception that not ear

You know, it's a common misconception that not earning enough money is what holds people back from getting ahead financially. But let me be real with you—it's not always about how much you make. The real issue often lies in something much simpler: budgeting.⁠
⁠
Yep, you heard that right. Budgeting—or rather, the lack thereof—is often the culprit behind financial struggles. It's not about having a huge income; it's about how you manage the money you do have.⁠
⁠
Think about it. Without a budget, it's like sailing a ship without a compass. You might have some idea of where you're going, but you're bound to hit rough waters sooner or later.⁠
⁠
But here's the thing: budgeting doesn't have to be complicated or intimidating. It's about being honest with yourself about your income and expenses, and then making a plan to allocate your money wisely.⁠
⁠
So, if you're feeling like you're stuck in a financial rut, take a moment to reflect. Are you budgeting effectively? Are you making the most of the money you have? If not, don't worry—you're not alone. And the good news is, it's never too late to start.⁠
⁠
Budgeting is the foundation of financial success, and it's something that anyone can learn to do. So, let's ditch the excuses and start taking control of our finances together. Trust me, you'll thank yourself later.⁠
⁠
And hey, to help you get started, I've got a free budget template that you can download. It's designed to make budgeting simple and straightforward, so you can start making progress towards your financial goals today.⁠

It's not uncommon for clients to feel ashamed or embarrassed about seeking financial guidance.⁠
⁠
There's often this misconception that if you're earning a decent income, money shouldn't be an issue, and you should inherently know how to manage it.⁠
⁠
But here's the truth: financial literacy isn't innate, and it's okay to ask for help regardless of your income level.⁠
⁠
At Money Mode, we understand the weight of financial stress and the stigma surrounding it. That's why we're here—to dismantle those barriers and provide accessible, understandable financial advice. Our mission is simple: we genuinely want to make a difference in people's lives, irrespective of where they are on their financial journey.⁠
⁠
So, if you're feeling the pressure or shame, I want you to let go of that burden.⁠
⁠
Asking for help is not a sign of weakness; it's the first step towards building a secure financial future—one that offers freedom, not stress.⁠
⁠
Remember, you're not alone, and we're here to support you every step of the way.⁠

I know, the 'B' word - but it is a critical step to managing money! Having a budget, or a spending plan, is going to help you know where your money is going and have a sense of control over it. It might sounds simple, but making sure you have room to move in your budget and buffers in place is essential right now.⁠

If your New Year's resolution was to get your fina

If your New Year's resolution was to get your finances in order, but it's already May and you're still telling yourself:⁠
⁠
"I'm too busy,"⁠
⁠
"I'm too overwhelmed,"⁠
⁠
"I still have time,"⁠
⁠
"When things calm down,"⁠
⁠
"After the next holidays,"⁠
⁠
Or whatever your reason may be...⁠
⁠
Maybe it's time to stop delaying and just take that first step.⁠
⁠
Stop putting it off, stop overthinking, stop analyzing every detail, stop merely wishing for change, and stop pretending everything's okay. Instead, let's start taking action.⁠
⁠
In other words, let's stop overcomplicating things and join forces.⁠
⁠
Think of me as the pain reliever for your financial headaches, the boost of nutrients for your financial goals, and the powerful tool to tackle your debt head-on.⁠

The federal budget has just been handed down. This

The federal budget has just been handed down. This is like a financial advisor’s Met Gala. 🤩

But if you’re not an absolute finance nerd like I am, reading through the 2024 budget can be a little dry.

There were plenty of proposals in this years federal budget, however here are my top 5 take-outs that I think my clients will be excited about:

- Cost of living relief through energy rebates
- Super on paid parental leave
- A cap on student loan indexation
- A ‘deeming’ freeze for Age Pensioners
- Extension of small business write-off concession

The above might provide some immediate financial relief for households, however the burning question many of us have is: What is going to happen to interest rates and inflation?

Swipe across to learn more about these key takeaways and find out what's in store for interest rates and inflation.

A common question I get asked is how can we improv

A common question I get asked is how can we improve the dynamics of our relationship regarding cash flow?⁠
⁠
How can we make this work in our relationship?⁠
⁠
If you're in a relationship, navigating your cashflow might feel a little more complicated. It's not just the practical side of the money (managing all the dealing with money), it's also the emotional side that can be new territory to navigate. Competing priorities and different money stories are the common things that pop up.⁠
⁠
It’s quite common that one member of a relationship will take on more of the admin role when it comes to our finances, such paying the bills and managing the bank transfers for example. This is totally OK, however this doesn’t mean the person doing the admin has to carry the mental load of your financial situation.⁠
⁠
Here are my tips to help navigate money in your relationship:⁠
⁠
💸 You both need to be on board with the way you manage your money and both understand the roles that you play.⁠
💸 You should both be across the numbers and both agree on any parameters around spending from various joint accounts.⁠
💸 Having shared goals is a really great way to have you united and empowered with your finances.⁠
💸 Have regular money dates, check in on how things are working and tweak what you need. Celebrate your wins and turn the money conversations into rewarding ones.⁠
⁠
Remember, the success of your system always lies in the outcome.⁠

The secret to managing your money is to automate i

The secret to managing your money is to automate it. By this I mean allocating amounts of money based on your budget (or spending plan, as I like to call it) to separate bank accounts as an automatic transfer each pay cycle.⁠
⁠
You should break your spending, or allocations, into 3 categories.⁠
⁠
✅ Group 1: Essentials⁠
⁠
✅ Group 2: Living⁠
⁠
✅ Group 3: Lifestyle⁠
⁠
This ensures your most important expenses are ALWAYS taken care of, you always have some money for fun stuff set aside, your goals are taking care of themselves and you can say goodbye to living paycheck to paycheck.

What’s your money story?⁠ ⁠ Your money story

What’s your money story?⁠
⁠
Your money story is integral to your financial health and well-being.⁠
⁠
Your money story is your history with money. It’s the feelings, memories and emotions surrounding events where money was a key player whether it was the just-moved-out-of-home-with-friends-late-night-laundromat-slash-two-minute-noodle days [aka survival], the monthly discord when your parents balanced the home books [fear], your very first job [empowerment], gifts as rewards.⁠
⁠
Your story led you to your current relationship with money.⁠
⁠
It might be why you spend when you’re low or why you don’t allow yourself to enjoy what you have built.⁠
⁠
Up for the challenge to uncover your money story - the good and the not so good?⁠

It could be a catalyst for change.⁠

Ask yourself, what emotion does money stir within you? Where do you believe this comes from?
