Christmas Spending Without the Financial Hangover

By |2025-12-24T14:12:26+00:00December 20th, 2025|Categories: Blog, Money, Smart money, Wealthology|Tags: , , , , , , |Comments Off on Christmas Spending Without the Financial Hangover

If Christmas joy comes wrapped in guilt, stress, and a maxed-out credit card, it might be time to rethink the way we spend during the holidays. The festive season is often associated with joy, generosity, and togetherness. But for many, it also comes with financial pressure, impulsive spending, and a January full of regret. In the rush to create the “perfect” Christmas, it’s easy to lose sight of long-term financial goals - leaving [...]

As we close out 2025, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the remarkable progress many property investors have achieved this year.  Despite market shifts, interest-rate movement, and ongoing economic uncertainty, one thing has remained clear: those who stayed committed to strong financial fundamentals and long-term strategy are now reaping the benefits. This year brought continued growth across key regions, renewed government focus on housing supply, and improved confidence from buyers and developers alike.  While short-term fluctuations made [...]

Celebrating Growth, Leadership & the Power of Your Mind

By |2025-12-11T01:49:27+00:00December 10th, 2025|Categories: Wealthology|Comments Off on Celebrating Growth, Leadership & the Power of Your Mind

Most people want to grow. But only the ones who invest in their own evolution actually do. And that is where this story begins. Nine years ago, when Wealthology was only an idea and a dream, I made a decision that shaped everything that followed. I hired a business coach on day one. Not because it was convenient. But because I knew this simple truth: If you want to create real impact, you must commit to your own mastery first. Since then, I’ve been [...]

Every now and then, something happens that stops you in your tracks. Not because it’s shiny or showy… But because it reminds you why you do what you do. This week, I had one of those moments. I’m incredibly honoured (and honestly a bit blown away) to be recognised as one of Brisbane’s 60 most inspirational women shaping our city’s future, as featured in The Courier Mail. It’s the kind of acknowledgment that makes you pause, [...]

Think Like a Philosopher, Act Like an Investor

Before the spreadsheets, the strategies, and the structures - real wealth starts with the question: “Why do I want it in the first place?” The ancient Greeks didn’t have investment portfolios or compound interest. But they did ask the questions that still shape how wealth should be built today. What is a good life? What does it mean to live well? How much is enough? These aren’t just fluffy thought [...]

Think today’s interest rates feel high? They’re not. Not compared to the last 50 years. And if you’re waiting for “the perfect rate” before investing, you might be waiting forever. Interest rates are just one piece of the property puzzle. Smart investors don’t let them become the excuse that holds them back. The Long View: What History Shows Us Average Residential Home Loan Rate 1970–2020 Look at the data. In the late 1980s, average home loan rates [...]

Raising Money-Smart Kids in a Changing World

If kids can learn to swipe before they can write, then it’s time we start teaching them how to spend, save, and build wealth with intention. The world our kids are growing up in looks nothing like the one we did. Tap-and-go. Buy now, pay later. Crypto wallets and in-game currencies. Financial literacy isn’t a future skill - t’s a right now skill. But let’s be honest: most adults weren’t raised with the tools to confidently teach [...]

Let’s get real - modern masculinity is shifting, and it’s dragging outdated money beliefs into the light, kicking and screaming. We’re in a new era where being a man isn’t about being the loudest voice in the room or the biggest paycheck on the table. Today’s success is quieter, deeper, and way more meaningful. This International Men’s Day, we’re flipping the script on what it really means to be “successful” [...]

While many in the industry may advise against it, I’ve been personally connecting with my tenants for many years - and it’s something I genuinely value. This simple act of appreciation never fails to bring a smile to their faces and helps them feel cared for.  In return, I’m rewarded with reliable rent payments, tenants who look after my properties as if they were their own, and long-term, positive relationships. Each year, I [...]
