Mind over Money

Why Saving Isn’t Enough: Start Investing to Buy Your Freedom

Waymaker Finance Season 4 Episode 95

Ep 95. It’s great to save money – but saving alone won’t help you achieve your goals. In this episode of Mind Over Money, Lachy, Archie, and Tim unpack the mindset shift from saving to investing, and why it’s essential for having income throughout your life. 

We explore:

  • The power of compounding: what $10K per year (just $192 a week) could grow into over 40 years at 8% return
  • Why most Aussies don’t really save — they just delay spending
  • How cars, homes, groceries and entertainment offer hidden savings that can be redirected into investments
  • Why starting early matters — and how small, consistent habits create big results
