  • Trusts & SMSFs: How Advanced Investors Are Rethinking Their Structures in 2025
    May 4 2025

    Are trusts still the best way to invest in 2025?
    Is it smarter to buy in your personal name?
    How do SMSFs fit into a modern portfolio strategy?

    This week, Goose and Gabi are joined property accounting wizard, Jeremy Iannuzzelli, to explore how advanced property investors are adapting to a changing market — and what you should consider before making your next move.

    What we’ll cover:
    * Are trusts still the ‘golden child’ to maximise your borrowing capacity?
    * When it might actually be smarter to invest in your personal name
    * How SMSFs fit into a long-term portfolio growth strategy
    * Why the old rules don’t apply anymore — and what to do instead

    If you’re serious about portfolio growth, tax strategy, and future-proofing your investments, this session is packed with critical insights for 2025 and beyond.

  • Tariffs, Trade Wars & What It Means for Your Portfolio
    Apr 12 2025
    The markets just suffered their biggest weekly drop since the GFC. Headlines are screaming panic. But what if there's a bigger story unfolding – one that could actually set up Australian investors for advantage? This week on The Investor Lab, we're diving deep into what's really happening behind the market meltdown and emerging trade wars. Here's what we'll unpack:* The real story behind Trump's new tariff plan (and why it's reshaping global trade)* Why tariffs might actually lead to lower prices in Australia (not higher)* Are we about to head into a recession, or come out of one?* How this massive market correction could impact your portfolio (for the better) So if you’re getting caught in the swell, join us on Friday. We’ll break it all down.
