One in three women retire with no savings. Nicola McDougall and Kate Hill have made it their mission to change this alarming trend. The statistics are concerning. Even those women that do manage often end up with less than half of what most men do. Unfortunately the gender pay gap and maternity leave, along with increasing rates of divorce and separation, piled on top of primary caregiving responsibilities, put enormous financial pressure on women.  So female property investment leaders Nicola McDougall and Kate Hill got together to write the book The Female Investor, which won Best Personal Finance and Investment Book Award at the Australian Business Book Awards in 2022.  They brought together their personal learnings and insights to help women create security and wealth through property.  Nicola is a successful property investor, business owner, award winning journalist and current Chairperson of the Property Investment Professionals of Australia. She’s also the former editor of the Australian Property Inve

Warwick Merry talks about the importance of presenting and communication for success in business, investing and life.  If you were asked what the critical core success skill is, that has the potential to take you from good to great, what would you say? Financial prowess? Maybe investing insight? You may be surprised that it is none of these things. It doesn't matter how good you are at your job, if you can't engage people you're going to struggle to achieve your dreams. So it is that ability to communicate and present effectively that will set you apart.  And as the world shifts to online more than ever before, this becomes even more crucial.

What does freedom mean to you? How much freedom do you have and enjoy? Freedom, fulfilment and happiness seem to be what we are all chasing – but what does freedom really mean? Freedom for me is having the choice to do what I like, when I like, where I like with who I like. It is about choice. On one hand, we have never had so much freedom of choice. But at the same time, our level of perceived happiness seems to be decreasing and there has never been a higher growth in the incidence of anxiety and depression. So today I want to explore this conundrum in some detail, drawing on Barry Schwartz’s excellent observations and insights from his book ‘The Paradox of Choice – Why More is Less’, and share some strategies on how you can fully enjoy your freedoms without suffering some of the apparent side effects. *This is a re-post of Get Invested episode 98* Know How Next Step: Personal Solution Session With Bushy Whether you're a first time property investor or an experienced player, knowing the next step on your in

How do you continue to prosper in property investment, even in volatile financial times? Suvidh Arora joins Bushy Martin to discuss.  For many years now you will have heard on Get Invested that investment and property in particular is a game of finance.  And for a long time we’ve been lulled into a place of false security in a very low interest rate environment, where for over a decade many borrowers have only seen interest rate falls to their recent historic lowest levels ever.   But this is already changing with interest rates on the rise and tipped to rise substantially over the next 12 months or so in response to high inflation, which is already softening property values that are likely to plateau and even drop by 5-10% in many areas in the medium term. And as interest rates rise, your borrowing capacity reduces – for example, on an average $600k mortgage, for every 1% increase in interest rate, how much you can borrow drops by roughly $100k dollars. So how do you safely and affordably navigate the changi
