As Australia descends into winter, what better way to celebrate the chill than by kicking off our 2022 Winter Series?!
In this special edition series, we’ll be deep-diving into some of our listener’s personal stories, going behind the scenes to share their challenges and triumphs and exploring how they’re successfully investing in property thanks to the power of planning.
We’ve got a very special lineup of guests, all with very different money stories but all with 1 thing in common…
They’ve each faced and overcome life’s difficulties and “planned to become, what they planned to become”! Basically, we’re uncovering…how folks are creating long-term plans WITH short-term variations!
To open our Winter Series, we’ve got a guest with a real “rags to riches” story – beginning as a refugee in the UK…
“We were placed in social housing to begin with in a rough neighbourhood with high crime rates. It was not the kind of place you’d say hi to your neighbours. You’d just keep to yourself.”
Ever since she was young, today’s guest was exposed to the importance of money.
Relocating as a refugee from Vietnam, Kim watched her parents start from scratch, working odd jobs to save money, raising a family and eventually buying their own business.
Did that mean she was wise when she got her first pay packet?
Definitely not!
So how did she evolve from her splurging years to owning 2 investment properties with her partner, well on her way to achieving a $180K per year passive income?!
This one’s a must-listen folks – Kim is articulate, funny and relatable as she recounts journeying to Australia with no job lined up, her initial wacky investing ideas and how long-term planning has helped her to find financial success.
Thank you for sharing your story with us Kim – we’re honoured to be opening our first Winter Series with you!!
