Andrew Bogut, NBA superstar & Australia’s greatest basketball player, is here!

Alright, folks — we promised an international sports star to end our month of Awe-Guest — and we are really excited to announce that he’s here!

Yep, let’s not hide it. We are entirely pumped for this show!

Because not only is Andrew a basketball legend — he won the NBA championship with the Golden State Warriors in 2014 – 2015, playing with THE biggest names and best athletes in the world, and even represented Australia at two Olympics with the Boomers — but also Andrew is a highly effective investor himself, savvy with his millions AND (we feel very proud about this) is a regular listener of The Property Couch!

The 7ft tall talent gives us insights into the world of NBA (and what it’s literally like to break a leg in his first game with the Cleveland Cavaliers this year), how he set up his investment portfolio and what’s in store after basketball:

Firstly, how on earth did this internationally known sports star end up on The Couch?
What’s life like as an NBA player?
What do the financial future and investment mindset really look like for most NBA players?
His experience with some of the Financial “Snakes” out there
Why is an NBA player interested in suburb development and gentrification?
Investing in supercars and commercial properties
How important are trust funds?
How was money spoken of when Andrew was a kid — did this shape how he sees his future?
Aside from the hype, what does an NBA schedule really look like?
Let’s be rule: who is the best player in the league?

Oh and (we had to ask) … where does Andrew store his Championship ring?

Also, Andrew did a walk through our office … hilarious to see the size difference, even for our tallest members.

The Stig (hiding from the spotlight in true Stiggy style) didn’t stand a chance!

Alright folks: what does the drummer from The Screaming Jets and property investment have in common?

Craig “Rosie” Rosevear!

That’s right—on The Couch today, the man behind the drums of one of Australia’ legendary bands explains how he used his royalties to break into the property market and transformed his touring days into a growing property portfolio and now, a charismatic, auctioning career! Yep. Aside from being the Founder of Rock Your Future and the owner of Rosie’s School of Rock—where he and his wife, Belinda, motivate and educate young people to be confident in both music and life—Craig is also an auctioneer at Cooley Auctions, winner of the Newcastle Heat of the Real Estate Institute of NSW Auctioneering Competition and a property investor with a knack for DIY renovating!

No stranger to hard work, Craig explains:

Firstly, what life is really like as a rock star!
How invaluable a good work ethic is, and how he managed to maintain it, despite fame and, well, being a rock star
Why he used his royalties to buy his first investment property
What he discovered about investing with equity that changed his way of thinking
How he became a borderless investor in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney
Ways to get around Sydney’s Housing Affordability
First Home Buyer mistakes and DIY renovation tips
How he got into auctioneering (it has something to do with Episode 121 with Damien Cooley)
The similarities between being a rock star & an auctioneer (“Rocktioneer”)
Investing in Newcastle, NSW
Things buyers should do at an auction
Business acumen tips from rock band KISS (!)

And (we had to ask), what is Craig’s “go to” rock star story? The unexpected, sneak peek into what Muso life was like …

He tells us right at the end—of course he did.

What an absolute pleasure!

What would you do if you arrived from Fiji to Australia with only $4,500 to your name and little else? Well, that’s exactly what today’s guest, Victor Kumar, Partner at Right Property Group, and his wife did in 1997. And their story is truly extraordinary! Within 1 and a half years in Australia, the radiographers—thanks to reading The Wealthy Barber and Building Wealth Through Investment Property, learning as much as they could about property investment, lots of hard work coupled with a steel determination —had secured their own PPOR as well as 11 investment properties!

Here to explain how he did it, the co-host of Investing Insights with Right Property Group podcast, Victor Kumar, explains:

How he chose a mortgage broker to get the loan he was first rejected for
Who to take your advice from (aside from Jan Somers and David Chilton)
The difference between money and mindset, and why goal setting is crucial:

“The very first thing is: you’ve got to sort out your goals—why you’re doing it and what are you aiming for—before you start the journey. Most people start the journey and then try and get the GPS up-and-running to say we’re they’re going.”

Victor’s reason “why” he invests in property—and why it is crucial to know your “why”
A simple, easy habit anyone can do to outsmart a spruiker and determine if the property seminar is genuine
His investment strategy, how he accumulated such a ginormous portfolio and if he would do it again
A few of the mistakes and lessons learnt while building his portfolio (and they’re hilarious!)
When to DIY and when to always pay for professional services
What factors to consider if you are investing in the outer suburbs?
His renovation “Life Hack” and why it’s the most important renovation tip to add value
What are the three things that can ruin a property portfolio?
How to manage multiple investment properties and the problems with investing in too many properties
Special: Victor unpacked an amazing tip at the 55-minute mark. So make sure you don’t miss that!

Note: Victor brought enough gold to the couch to create a mining town … let us know if you agree! What to do and what never, ever to do … wooooaaaah, thanks Victor!
