In uncertain times it is important to remain calm, separate facts from fear and fiction, make clear committed choices and take action – not wait for something to happen. And today’s guest is a great example of exactly this thinking and approach during times of threat. Rob Newman has stared death squarely in the eye in life threatening situations and near death experiences on a number of occasions and lived to tell the tale and go on to survive and thrive.  Today you will find out exactly what happened, how he did it and the lessons he learned that you can apply to help you tackle challenging times and make good committed choices - not knee jerk decisions.  Like me, Rob is a boy from the bush who has made it in the big smoke. His early passions took him around the world in motorsport including being part of the Australian Formula 1 team, competing at Bathurst and being part of a winning team that took out the Australian Grand Prix. After hanging up his race helmet, Rob has turned his passion to property and for the last 30 years - his company Blackford’s Property has specialised in helping investors. In recent times his unique buyers agency approach now also assists first home buyers and their parents as well as up and downsizers and custom builds. After recovering from his last sudden unexpected life threatening incident, Rob’s road to recovery has developed into a passion for overall fitness, mind and body.  On the physical side yoga, walking, pilates, cycling and swimming are all regular activities and on the mental front a never-ending diet of self-development including meditation and working with mentors who continue to bring out the best in him. Never resting on his laurels and always challenging himself, he has taken his long term interest in comedy and public speaking to the next level and  performed at the recent Adelaide Fringe, and he’s been selected to perform at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. His passion for life is infectious and you’re really going to learn some great lessons and enjoy this great conversation with Rob Newman.

Maybe you have been thinking about investing in property for years but there has always been something or some reason why you have never quite stepped through the sliding door and onto property train. This has been exactly the case with today’s guest Sam Buckby, who explains why he has almost invested in property over 20 times over the last decade or so. Sam’s a great bloke, an author, podcaster, speaker, consultant, electrical expert and guru at using intelligent design to create a more simple life. Sam is the owner and founder of Buckby Electrical, the creative mind behind Smarter Buildings and host of his hot new podcast Spaces. He has over 20 years experience in electrical contracting, functional design and the built environment. Sam also manages a highly successful contracting business that has shown growth every year since inception and has even appeared on the hit house renovation TV show, The Block. Through his whole working life, he’s seen the evolution of technology become part of our everyday lives but wants to see our built environment evolve so that advanced functionality isn’t just simple, but the norm. Sam’s the expert when it comes to designing the functionality of state-of-the-art buildings and has written a book on the topic called Homes with a Heartbeat. But what I like most about Sam is that he puts life’s big rocks of family, friends, fitness and health first and the rest of life fits in the gaps – he lives a great lifestyle of his own design.  So if you’re like Sam and have been thinking about investing for ages but have never quite got around to it, today could be your sliding door moment – so I challenge you to reach out to me at bushy@khgroup.com.au with the header ‘Sliding Door Moment’ and join me on our Freedom Flight video webinar education series so you have all of the information you need to make a fully informed sliding door decision.

What’s your relationship with money? Is money your friend or your foe? How much do you focus on spending versus saving? On your income versus your investments? On your work versus your wealth? How proactive are you in managing your money? My old man Bushy Senior always used to say that it isn’t what you earn its what you spend that counts. So how sticky are you with money?

What if there was a way to automate your money management that creates a saving system by remote control without you having to do anything or worry about it once it’s set up? Would this make your life easier and reduce your stress and worry about the future? Would you be interested in learning more?
