Money myths, super and smarter wealth decisions

Is financial advice really too expensive, or is the bigger risk making poor decisions without it?

In this episode of The Winner’s Playbook, Billy is joined by Steve Sloane, Founder and Managing Director of Link Wealth, to unpack five common money myths that can affect how people build, protect and structure wealth.

They discuss the cost and value of financial advice, whether young people should be putting more into super, and why business owners need to think carefully before treating their business as their retirement plan.

Billy and Steve also cover self-managed super funds, commercial property, rentvesting, and how recent property and tax changes may affect the way people invest moving forward.

If you’re trying to make better financial decisions, build wealth outside the usual path, or understand how advice, super and property fit together, this episode is worth a listen.
