The Questions…
Question from Al Knight Lewis – Investment Stock & Investment Grade – Is it still relevant?
“Good afternoon. I have just started listening to your podcasts and am finding them so interesting! Episode 8 talks about investment stock vs investment grade and I’m wondering if the info in this episode is still current and relevant 6 years later? I’m looking for our first investment in Brisbane.”
Question from Don Holloway – Are there any benefits from having $10k sitting in an offset?
“With interest rates so low atm is there any benefits from having $10k sitting in an offset? My calculations (and confirmed by investment bankers and mortgage brokers) best to buy quality shares with your $10k than to month ball it into an offset account. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. BTW, I’ve read your book Make Money Simple Again last year. Found it to be a parallel to Scott Pape’s Barefoot Investor“.
