  • RBA May 2024 | The Inflation Psychology Story

    RBA May 2024 | The Inflation Psychology Story
    May 7 2024

    Welcome to the third RBA Rate Release of 2024 with Ben Kingsley and Evan Lucas!

    Here's a sneak peek into what our hosts cover in today's episode:

    📺 RBA’s Interest Rate Decision: Find out all about the Reserve Bank of Australia’s cash rate decision, as announced at 2.30pm (AEDT) today!

    📈 Australia's Inflation Challenges: The Q1 inflation rate is at a stubborn 3.6%, which is above the RBA's comfort zone of 2-3%. Find out why non-tradables like healthcare and rental housing are giving inflation a nudge, as well as the potential interest rate adjustments in light of the upcoming federal budget.

    🏅 Employment Landscape: While there are mixed trends in US and Australia’s employment situations, Australia shows many positive signs with record-high participation rates and an all-time high in female employment.

    🏠 Property Market Dynamics: Despite expectations, property prices in Australia are on the rise. We'll explore the ups and downs of the market, driven by high demand in some areas and scarcity in others. Get ready for a deep dive into what's happening now and what it means for future property investments.

    💰 The Inflation Psychology Story: Ever heard of the "buy now or regret later" mindset? It's a self-fulfilling prophecy where high prices make people rush to buy, which, in turn, keeps prices high. Ben & Evan discuss this consumer mindset and its effects on inflation.

    Whether you're a seasoned investor, house hunter, or just curious about economic trends, this episode is a must-listen!

    What would you do if you worked 16-hour days on the road and were utterly exhausted the few days you were home? With a family to care for and a past of previous divorces, you'd probably want to change your lifestyle.

    In this Case Studies episode, we're mapping out two plans for two couples (Names have been changed for privacy 😊) whose stories testify to the fact that there is no one "right" way to invest in property.

Fantastic information

These guys are brilliant! I have learnt so much from listening to TPC and I now feel better prepared to take the leap into the property market as an investor. As the wise Ben Kingsley says, knowledge is empowering but only if you act on it!

The lifestyle podcast with a property twist

FINALLY finished EVERY episode... I got onto this podcast late in the game and had 7 years to catch up on!! Proud to say i have worked my way through every single episode from the beginning - even the RBA updates I dont really understand. Bryce and Ben are so easy to listen to, and I often find myself giggling along to their banter as I pull up at work. Interestingly the show has actually made me realise my husband and I don't "need" to invest in property (very lucky couple to have double defined benefit super in retirement). For me this podcast has honestly changed my life, the guest speakers are always interesting and inspirational. They choose down to earth people I find I can relate to, not... Wankers 🤣. I've jumped onto a number of other audiobooks from their recommendations and guests. In the last 12-18 months my mindset has been transformed in relation to finance, career, education, even parenting! Slightly obsessed... My kids even think they know Bryce and Ben because most days they see their faces on the car display. THANK YOU Bryce, Ben and the rest of the team for providing this podcast, you're changing people's lives in more ways than you probably realise.
