In this episode, Stuart shares smart, practical steps for those who aren’t quite ready to pay for full financial advice—but still want to make smart money moves.

He explains the difference between straightforward and complex financial decisions. Early in your wealth-building journey, most choices are straightforward if you educate yourself on the fundamentals and find a great professional mentor—like a savvy mortgage broker or accountant—to guide and reassure you.

Stuart also gives real-world examples of how mentorship and basic strategic advice have helped clients successfully build property portfolios and secure financial freedom—without initially needing full-service advice.

However, he warns that when financial complexity increases, or if you lack confidence in making investment decisions, it’s crucial to know when to bring in a qualified financial advisor.

If you’re early in your journey and wondering how to move forward wisely without overpaying for advice, this episode is essential listening. Stuart offers clear, experience-backed guidance to help you stay on track while you build your foundation.
