Welcome back to another episode of the 360 Money Matters Podcast!

In this episode, we dive into how business owners can turn profit into personal wealth. We explore the dangers of reinvesting every dollar back into your business without building wealth outside of it, and the risks of assuming your business will always remain profitable or sellable. We discuss the importance of paying yourself first—treating yourself like a creditor by consistently diverting a portion of your profits into other assets like property, shares, or superannuation. We emphasize that while business owners are used to paying themselves last, developing the habit of wealth-building outside the business can safeguard against disruptions, provide asset protection, and support better retirement outcomes. We also cover strategies for asset allocation, tax minimization, and estate planning, reinforcing the value of long-term planning and diversification.

Start building your personal wealth today by paying yourself first and diversifying your business profits—because your future shouldn’t depend solely on your business.
