    • Would you stop paying 10c at the risk of not earning $1?
    • The secret to escaping wealth limbo
    • Why you should focus on stabilisation over investments
    • The hidden game of referral agents and who really ends up paying

  • Rentvesting – Is Rent Money Dead Money?
    Apr 16 2024

    Note: This episode is a re-run of one of our older episodes. It originally aired on 14th April 2016 😊

    In today’s episode, we tackle the increasingly popular strategy of 'rentvesting'.

    As we see soaring property prices in major urban hubs, the dream of homeownership seems further out of reach for many. But is there a savvy way to balance that dream with reality?

    Enter ‘rentvesting’ – where you rent in the place you love...and invest where you can afford.

    Rentvesting is a smart solution that can offer freedom, tax perks, and a wealth-building shortcut, but can you handle the emotional trade-offs?

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.
