Investopoly
Investopoly is a twice-weekly podcast designed to help you make better financial decisions and build wealth with clarity and confidence. Hosted by Stuart (tax adviser, financial adviser, and mortgage broker) and Campbell (senior financial adviser), each episode delivers concise, practical insights grounded in real-world strategy, research, methodologies, and case studies.
You will get two episodes each week: a main episode that deep-dives into a single wealth-building topic, and a Q&A episode that answers listener questions and real scenarios. Send your questions to questions@investopoly.com.au
We also writes a weekly blog, and many podcast topics build on those ideas and frameworks. Stuart's forthcoming book, Wealth by Design, will be available in July 2026.

Q&A- Can I afford to retire, renovating vs investing, and planning solo

Three richly detailed listener situations, three very different crossroads. First, Charles, 51, unemployed, four kids in private school, and a sprawling portfolio spanning a Singapore apartment, an SMSF, regional Queensland property, land parcels and a $500k crypto holding. His question is deceptively simple: in what order should he sell to fund a Melbourne home, and can he actually afford to retire? Stuart untangles the sequencing and confronts the concentration risk head-on.
Next, Matt and his wife in Lugarno, sitting on strong equity after a major renovation but facing single-income pressure with a young family and more children planned. Should they pour surplus into the mortgage, or recommence property investing to ultimately pay the home down faster? We weigh the options against cash flow reality.
Finally, an anonymous single mother of three, a medical professional on the Sunshine Coast, asks how solo parenting reshapes retirement planning. Should she sell underperforming shares into super, lift her contributions, rethink her growth allocation, or consider property despite constrained borrowing capacity?
Honest, numbers-first guidance for anyone wondering whether their strategy genuinely stacks up, and what to prioritise next.
