Going Against the Greats – Why You Shouldn’t Pay Yourself First!

Note: This episode is a re-run of one of our older episodes. It originally aired on 8th June 2017 😊

In this week’s episode, Bryce and Ben discuss the fascinating power of compounding. 

Tune is as they answer listeners’ questions, explain how you benefit from delayed gratification, and share their experiences and advice on property investing!

The Property Investment Formula That Works In ANY Market And At ANY Time!

If there’s just one framework you should focus your attention on if you want to be a successful property investor… please make it this one!

Folks, in today’s episode we’re revealing THE Property Investment Formula you need, not just in your toolkit, but also what you must implement if you want to build a multimillion-dollar property portfolio that creates a passive income for yourself and your loved ones!

Our Property Investment Formula is made up of FOUR critical elements – what we call our our “A.B.C.D.” Pillars of Mastery – and it works in ANY market and at ANY time… (yep!)… ‘cos this is an evergreen formula to invest in property. It really will work today, tomorrow and forever. So make sure you get this framework RIGHT.

The “A.B.C.D” Pillars of Mastery are…

  • Asset Selection
  • Borrowing Power
  • Cashflow Management
  • Defence

BUT while this “A.B.C.D” Acronym makes it super easy for you to remember… these Pillars are NOT in their correct order as you would apply them in real life… so, please NEVER start with the property (Asset Selection)!

We’re about to unpack what order to apply our “ABCD” Property Investment Formula and how to implement and what to consider in each individual Pillar.

This is one of our all-time favour frameworks and, yep, it is absolutely critical for every property investor, no matter what stage they are in!

Listen now to get the proven formula to invest in property that works in any market and at any time!

Bet $1 To Make $10 – How To Master Leverage And Compound Growth Without Risking It All

Have you ever wondered how to accelerate your wealth position without having to risk everything? If so, we have something very important to tell you in this episode that – let’s be real here – a lot of folks don’t actually know about.

Property Investors actually have a Superpower…. and that Superpower is LEVERAGE.

But it gets even better than that. Because if you add this superpower with another one – “The Compound Effect” – you’ll be sitting very pretty indeed! And these two fundamentals of investing are what make property such a safe and sustainable vehicle for wealth creation.

If you have no idea what we mean by “leverage” or “compounding”, that’s totally okay… ‘cos we’re about to fill you in on exactly what these terms mean and how they amplify your ability to create a passive income for life.

Plus, we’ll be walking you through WHO exactly property investors should have on their team as well as other investment choices you can consider instead of/as well as property!

Sound good?
