Drew and I walk through a full case study (see below) of a fictitious Australian couple, Ralph (52) & Jane (51), looking to generate passive income from a diversified portfolio. The result: Drew predicts this couple could retire on a generous yearly income if they can get to $1.2 - $1.6 million of investable assets before retirement.Does that sound like a crazy figure? Not so fast...Drew explains all of his findings and analysis in this episode of The Australian Investors Podcast.The case study - Ralph & JaneJane (51) and Ralph (52) live in Brighton-Le-Sands, New South Wales in a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom house. Ralph is a sticky-fingered accountant, earning $110,000. He loves the Hawthorn Hawks in the AFL (obviously) and spends his weekends watching their two boys play sports. Jane is a Midwife in Sydney, working 7 days of night shift every fortnight. She earns $115,000, also on PAYG. Jane uses some of her days off to volunteer at the Foodbank, encouraging her two sons to get married and have children.Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.Take Owen’s brand new Value Investor Program, which gives you all the tools and knowledge you need to invest successfully in companies, including valuation spreadsheets, investing checklists and ASX company case studies.Join The Intelligent Investor & saveThis podcast is brought to you by The Intelligent Investor, Australia's premier investment research membership service.

In this Passive Income podcast episode, Owen & Drew talk about the most common (and painful) investing mistakes made by investors. Whether you're investing in ETFs, shares, Bitcoin or property, this podcast will help you avoid the most common investing mistakes.Here's a list of Drew's most common mistakes: Assuming bigger is better - but I love my Commonwealth Bank (ASX: CBA) and Westpac Bank (ASX: WBC) shares! Focusing too much on costs & fees - though low costs are good, they're not everything Tax-driven investments don't always work - negative gearing means you're losing money Naïve diversification - having two ETFs doing a similar thing is not diversification Adding random assets & following the next hot theme - the hype is not a bonafide strategy Not having a real strategy in place - avoid being a collector, a plan might only be one or two pages Assuming every asset always goes up - it doesn't Looking too often at performance - Drew & Owen would be lucky (unlucky) to check their brokerage account once a month! Get rich quick - emu eggs anyone? Giving in too soon, or changing strategy in the short-term - buy and hold only works if you and hold!

Gaurav Sodhi is Deputy Head of Research at Intelligent Investor, an investor and prolific investment writer. Given that I have followed him for many years, speaking to Gaurav Sodhi on The Australian Investors Podcast was a real treat for me.Note: given that Gaurav wanted to walk around to make cups of tea and do a family puzzle while being interviewed by me, we did this interview as audio-only. I'm incredibly surprised he could answer some of my most difficult questions while doing such things! I think it goes to show well Gaurav can juggle multiple ideas at one time!Gaurav Sodhi is Deputy Head of Research at Intelligent Investor, arguably Australia's leading independent ASX stock research and membership program.Gaurav started his working career as a researcher and then, through a chance interview, he came across while driving across New Zealand with a friend (featuring Platinum's Kerr Neilson), Gaurav's spark for investing took flight. It then took him two years to land a job at Intelligent Investor.In this episode, I -- Owen -- and Gaurav talk about: The power of economics in explaining the world How drug cartels are similar to McDonalds The power of writing for investors The tricks and games used to recruit analysts Why Guarav isn't fazed by ESG and ethical investing Why value investing needs to evolve to include storytelling Some of the stocks mentioned in the discussion include: Whitehaven Coal Ltd (ASX: WHC) New Hope Corporation Ltd (ASX: NHC) Uniti Group (ASX: UWL) Telstra Corp (ASX: TLS) Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ: META) McDonald's Corporation (NYSE: MCD) Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO) Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.Take Owen’s brand new Value Investor Program, which gives you all the tools and knowledge you need to invest successfully in companies, including valuation spreadsheets, investing checklists and ASX company case studies.Trade ASX, US & HK stocks for just $9.50!The Australian Investors Podcast's official broker is SelfWealth.
