I think the only broker at the time that I was aware of was ComSec and perhaps NAB Trade as well.

Incredibly expensive to do so.

So I had a very sort of home country bias and was just investing here in Australia.

So for me, one of the biggest challenges

changes has been bringing that international focus, investing not only in the US, but Europe, New Zealand, like all these markets around the world.

Through speaking to so many experts, you really get the opportunity to see how amazing investing is when it gives you that opportunity to invest in the best companies around the world.

So that's been a big change for me is getting out of the tiny market that Australia is and

and embracing the opportunity that is around the world.

I know.

No, look, for me, I've always been pretty disciplined with money.

I was fortunate to grow up in a family where they really sort of instilled the value of money into us and some really good money habits.

And we speak about that in a book, you know, getting your money sorted and saving and stuff.

But I think that's at some points in my life took away from enjoying sort of what I'd created and built from that.

And so I'd probably tell my 18-year-old self to enjoy it a little bit more and not be so disciplined all the time because you can always earn back money, but you can never really get time back or your age back.

And so, yeah, I'd probably say relax on the discipline at some points in time.

And then in terms of business, I would just say learn to code.

For me, it is that a lot of people feel they need to know everything before they get started and that there needs to be oodles amounts of research done and they need to know the best company or the best ETF available.

And that's the only way to start.

And that can be incredibly paralyzing because you're never going to know everything before you start.

There is no sort of absolute best ETF for the rest of your life.
