Matija Djolic - Using Data To Build Your $150K Passive Income Portfolio
We’re talking real property data, the kind that shows you where to invest, what to buy, and how to build a portfolio that could change your life!
Sounds gimmicky, BS and all that other stuff, but when you boil down property investing. Why are we doing this?

How data fits into your strategy, so every move is intentional.
Where most investors go wrong, and how to avoid their mistakes.

Dave Gow - Are Shares Better Than Property For Financial Freedom
FIRE🔥: Financial Independence, Retire Early—sounds amazing on paper. But the deeper I dig, the more I find myself wondering if it's as straightforward as it seems.
That’s why I’m excited to talk with Dave Gow and get some real insights into these challenges.
One big concern is the level of sacrifice. Cutting expenses to the bone and delaying gratification for years is overwhelming.
The question is—how do you strike a balance between aggressively saving and still enjoying life in the moment? A life without dinners out or small luxuries sounds rough.
Also, is early retirement really the goal?
A lot of people hit FIRE and find they don’t actually want to stop working. They go back to work, start businesses, or look for meaningful projects. Maybe it’s not about quitting, but having the choice?
Dave reached financial independence by 28, so he knows the highs and lows firsthand. What questions have you got for this session?
Topics we'll be talking about include:
How Shares Stack Up vs Property & Why Dave Has Moved His Property Portfolio On! This one is bound to be juicy and actionable.
What Financial Independence Means & How Dave Thinks About It.

Daniel Domingues - How This Investor Built A Passive Income Empire
You know that feeling when you're starting over from scratch? Whether it’s in a new country, a new career, or just trying to rebuild after life throws you a curveball—it can be tough.
But what if I told you that starting from scratch could actually be your biggest advantage? The most successful people I know started with less than $0.
That’s exactly what happened to Daniel Domingues. When he came to Australia, he had no safety net, just pure determination.
And from that, he’s managed to build a multi-million-dollar property portfolio. Now, he’s switching gears, moving towards passive income, and he’s here to share the step-by-step on how he’s done it.
What I love about Dan’s story is that it’s not just about numbers. it’s about mindset. The relentless drive to make it work when failure isn't an option. Whether you’re a migrant or just someone who feels like you’re starting from zero, this session is going to resonate with you.

Jef and Joe - Aus Property Portfolio Reveal - Building Our Way To $150K Passive Income
"You ever feel like your money’s just sitting there, not really doing much?"
Jef and I had that exact chat about 7-8 years ago, it's actually the foundation of this group. We realised our savings weren’t cutting it and with inflation, it felt like we were treading water.
