Property Hub - Investment Insights & Inspiration

Anything you decide to invest in, and the way you invest in it, needs to satisfy this criteria: it must be simple and easy, time-effective, low-cost and high-growth – meaning you just need to pick investment vehicles that tick these boxes and the job’s done! In this regard, Jason McIntosh’s Motion Trader service is a perfect fit as the medium term nature of his investment trading system lets winning trades run for one to two years on average. This is a low touch, high traction approach. The beauty of Jason’s Motion Trader approach is that his algorithms do all of the homework and research for you, and because the work is technically based, the trading rules remove our subjective emotional judgement and reactivity - which, as you’ve heard, is the cause of most investment underperformance. But of course there’s much more to investing than just buying and selling stocks. The technical trading algorithms need to be aligned with your mental algorithm behaviour rules and your evolved AI, ancient intelligence automated survival responses. We cover off on many of these today, including: When you make money in shares What rules you need to consider to invest successfully Why a medium term investment system may suit you better How you can determine your share trade size to ensure you remain in the game And why having a sell strategy is very important And If you’re interested in learning more about Jason’s ‘Five Secrets of the World’s Best Traders’ Motion Trader has kindly given you free access to an exclusive report, so if you’d like an electronic copy, just email me at bushy@khgroup.com.au and we’ll get it to you.

Jason McIntosh is the creator of Motion Trader — an online advisory service for retail investors and SMSFs. His career began in 1991 on the trading floor at Bankers Trust where he got to work with some of the best investment traders in the world. He gave up the hustle and bustle of the CBD in 2007. Nowadays he manages his family's investments from his home in Sydney because at the end of the day investment should be all about lifestyle. And what Jason enjoys most is teaching every day hard working Aussies to invest like the pros. He loves helping struggling investors to become successful. And if you're ready, he’d love to help you too. In technical terms, Jason is a share market algorithm investor. He’s developed a proven, profitable and robust share investing system that has personally returned his investment portfolio over 10-12% per annum, as you’ll hear during our discussion. Jason’s Motion Trader is a medium term trend following strategy. The aim is to use proven algorithms to identify stocks which meet the entry criteria. It’s then a case of letting profitable investments run, and cutting losing ones relatively early. Winning trades often last for around a year (some last several years), whereas losing trades typically last a few months (but some exit within days).   And the good news is that he now helps you remove yourself and your self-sabotaging ways from your investing through his service, incorporating all of the good habit forming system principles we cover about today. Jason doesn’t talk about success rates, he talks about the probability and profitability of your trading system – systems where you can have more losers than winners and still end up making money. How? Because your many losses are small compared to the much bigger size of your few wins. It’s how I had 60% losing trades but was still profitable. It all relies on a good investing system with a proven set of predetermined rules for entering and exiting share purchases that follows trend patterns. And the beauty of Jason’s Motion Trader approach is that his algorithms do all of the homework and research for you, and because the work is technically based, the trading rules remove our subjective emotional judgement and reactivity - which is the cause of most investment underperformance. I’ve always said that investment is all about the numbers and I don’t even need to see the property or know anything about the company I’m buying shares in, in fact I prefer not to because I then start getting emotionally attached - which can result in poor judgement and bad decisions. And in line with this thinking, Motion Trader’s algorithm analysis along with his email potential trade notification service means you don’t need to do the homework, you just need to follow his signals.   Jason says that people often say that successful trading is all about secrets. They believe the best traders have special knowledge that regular people can’t access. But do you know what? In his opinion, there are no ‘secrets’. The strategies the best traders use are nothing new. They’re mostly variations of the same winning tactics that have been in use for decades, if not centuries. Many traders make the mistake of focusing on one thing: when to buy. And yes, entries are important. But they’re just one cog in the machine. The difference between success and failure are the rest of the cogs, although many people lose money long before figuring this out.   So how do some of the best traders make millions? In Jason’s opinion, it essentially comes down to five rules: Trade with the trend Have many relatively small trades Get good at quitting Be slow to take profits Give winners room to move If you’re interested in learning more about the details of these secrets, Jason and Motion Trader have kindly given you free access to his exclusive report ‘Five Secrets of the World’s Best Traders’ so if you’d like an electronic copy, just email me at bushy@khgroup.com.au and we’ll get it to you.

If you want to change your financial future by learning more about who you are, what you value and what is best suited to help you live the life you want with the money you have, then today’s guest Vince Scully is here to help you in Part 2 of our deeply engaging and informative discussion. If you listened to the last episode, you’ll know that Vince is a veteran Financial Adviser, Author and Financial Wellness Advocate and the founder of Life Sherpa – an online platform that helps you make money and investing accessible and affordable. He’s realised that what makes you comfortable with your money and allows you to live the life you want with the money you have isn’t about how much you earn or save or where you invest it. What makes the difference is truly understanding what you want and spending your money in a way that gets you closer to achieving it. It is about you getting clear on your true life goals and values. What I call 'living by design, not default' in my book The Freedom Formula. And Vince’s book 'The Latte Fallacy and Other Money Myths’ helps you with all of this. The book provides you with simple practical tools to get the most out of the money you have. It helps you develop an understanding of what really matters to you and gives you an easy-to-follow, eight-step plan to help you achieve it. It gives you the skills to live a fulfilling life free of money stress no matter how much or how little you have. And If you’d like to win an ebook copy of Vince’s book, just email me at bushy@knowhowproperty.com.au with the words 'Get Invested' in the subject header and then tell us the one luxury that you refuse to give up ... and Vince will award a free book to the best entry. Runners up will all receive a free ebook copy of my award winning book ‘Get Invested’. In this fact packed conclusion to my conversation with Vince today, we cover: What is your money personality and why is it important? What are the big six money decisions you need to make that will have the most impact on your financial future? How you can utilise the unique PEARL spending tool to improve your money management  What are the four key things to look at when it comes to investing?

A lot of people are operating on defunct money myths that are misleading at best and destructive at worst. Myths that appear to make sense at first glance but have often passed their expiry date. This is where today’s guest Vince Scully comes in to help you clear the money myths. Vince is a veteran Financial Adviser, Author and Financial Wellness Advocate and the founder of Life Sherpa – an online platform that helps you make money and investing accessible and affordable.  He helps you to master the art of living the life you want with the money you have. Many myths sound credible but are dangerous to your wealth and happiness. Some of these myths include: “Money doesn’t buy happiness” “Rent money is dead money” “Two incomes are better than one” “You need a lot of money to start investing” And the biggest myth of all … “Cutting out your morning latte will make you rich.” This has prompted Vince to author his great book ‘The Latte fallacy and Other Money Myths.’ It addresses the commonly held, but incorrect view, that giving up your morning coffee can make you rich.  The premise of this approach is that a lot of little expenses over time add up to very large sums of money. So all you have to do is cut out your morning latte and hey presto you’re wealthy – right? Wrong! This great book debunks all of these misleading myths and gives you the tools that will actually make a real difference in your life. Over the many years Vince has worked in finance, he’s discovered that successfully navigating the world of money is not about having the best plan or choosing the best investment or even earning the most money. Neither is it about scrimping and saving. He has realised that the less time we spend planning how to get the most from our money, the more time we spend worrying about it. What makes the difference is truly understanding what you want and spending your money in a way that gets you closer to achieving it.  If you’d like to win an ebook copy of Vince’s book, just email me at bushy@knowhowproperty.com.au with the word Get Invested in the subject header and then tell us the one luxury that you refuse to give up … and Vince will award a free book to the best entry. Runners up will all receive a free ebook copy of my award winning book ‘Get Invested’. And Vince has shared so much gold from his book and his unique Life Sherpa approach in our deep dive conversation that I’ve split it into two value packed episodes. In today’s first part he answers your burning questions and gives you clarity on: How to set smarter goals The benefits of diversification Why asset allocation is important He paints out the 8 steps to financial freedom And concludes with his 10 commandments of money So if you want to know how to live the life you want with the money you have, sit back and enjoy this very informative chat with Vince Scully.

What's a quick and easy way to overcome your money fears and to start embracing money as your friend rather than your enemy? This is where today’s guest Julia Newbould and her new book ‘The Joy of Money’ comes to your rescue.  I’m betting that not many of you associate feelings of joy with money. But this is exactly what Julia and her co-author of Kate McCullum have discovered in this fun, entertaining, educating and engaging easy read. Julia is a financial writer and commentator with a strong background in financial journalism. She’s currently the Editor at large with Money Magazine, which is Australia's longest-running and most-read personal finance magazine. Prior to this she was editor of Financial Planning and Super Review magazines, managing editor at InvestorInfo and at Morningstar Australia which has all leveraged off her Bachelor of Economics.  Her co-authored book The Joy of Money helps you reframe your relationship with money and personal finance by deliberately de-jargonising the often confusing world of money, investing and finance. As she says in the opening of the book, ‘We don’t believe in jargon. We believe that it has been used in finance circles to exclude people, and while the terms may be complex the concepts are not. We have removed unnecessary jargon and explained key concepts in practical ways.’ As The Joy of Money challenges you: Whatever you do, continue to take an interest in your finances. You need money to be financially independent, and you need financial independence to have choices in your life and for your goals. There's no need to feel guilty about the past – it's the past. Whether we've got all the super we should have had, or whether we've sacrificed savings for shoes, or if we lost money in bad investments, or a bad relationships, let's agree we start here today. We are where we are and regrets won’t help. Let's agree to look ahead and see what we can do right now. So if you’re looking to improve your knowledge so you can take control of your money to create your version of financial independence, then you’re really going to enjoy this great chat with Julia Newbould.

if you’re looking for more clarity and confidence on how to invest in shares and equities in all of its myriad forms, today’s guest Danielle Ecuyer is your perfect compliment. Danielle has been actively involved in the share market for four decades. Beginning her career as an equities analyst and advisor, she held senior roles in large investment firms in both Australia and the UK.  And for the past 12 years she’s been a private investor where her main income source is derived from her own investments – she walks her talk!  Danielle has recently published her best selling book 'Shareplicity' - a simple approach to share investing, which could be described as the share equivalent of my property book, 'The Freedom Formula'. Together you have the complete guide to safe and affordable investing across shares and property.  Danielle has distilled her years of global share market experience into this handy guide to share market investing.  In Shareplicity, she takes the complexity out of share investing, explains concepts simply and in plain english, and provides go-to steps to help you start or improve your investing. In this respect, Shareplicity is a great way to better understand share investing basics as well as the changing dynamics of share investing that we’ll now experience during the upcoming extended period of lower for longer interest rates.  As I hear about a lot of first time investors jumping on the share market band wagon without any clear understanding of what they are doing, Shareplicity is very timely in that it will give you some great insights on how to manage the challenge of the opportunities and risks of investing in times of radical uncertainty moving forward. Using her great book as a guide, our discussion today reveals great answers to many of your share investing questions including: Where do you need to start with share investing and what steps should you take? What are the biggest mistakes that most equities investors make? What makes a winning share? How should you decide which shares to buy? And how can investors build the best portfolio to suit them? There is no doubt that at the time of recording this episode, we’re living in unprecedented and unchartered times for investors as we continue to work through the ongoing challenges that have arisen out of the recent pandemic.  However, the themes we discuss today and those that are outlined and reinforced in both of our books The Freedom Formula and Shareplicity still hold true and have proudly passed the COVID-19 test. If COVID-19 has taught us anything, it’s not to become complacent with our money or our investing and with great change comes great opportunity. So if you want to profit from the mother of all investment opportunities and the rare once in a generation window of opportunity that is going to emerge from these times, then grab yourself a copy of Danielle’s book – I found it an easy and engaging read.
