Australian Finance Podcast · Property investing strategies (advanced) with Chris Bates · 4 Oct 2021 podcast

A lot of people don't want to stop working as well.

There's a lot of purpose that you get through doing something every day.

And so, yes, people may want to stop their high pressure job at some point and maybe work three or four days a week, but they want to do something with their time.

And so what I find is that those people who were thinking about this sort of transition, they don't go from working full time, flat out to no work at all.

They dial it down.

And in that dial down period, they just get enough income to support them day to day.

Their needs are much lower because they haven't, the kids have moved out and all that sort of stuff.

And then they can, that income can get them through to when they completely stopped working in their sort of sixties.

And then they can draw on their super income.

and then they can draw on their other assets.

I think it's a bit of a myth that people, well, it's a dangerous path sort of going to, I want to work, work, work, save money, and then I'm going to retire and, you know, and not work ever again.

You know, there still is a sort of transition that I think is better for most people.

Oh, absolutely.

Yeah, I mean, I think our approach is...

just to really help and get to know someone and get the strategy right.

And you know, if they're still early in their journey and it's just a case of saying, right, let's figure out what savings we need based on our situation, you know, where we want to live, what our incomes are, what our sort of,

Yeah, it could be the start of that.

Or it could be like, you know, we're thinking about, we've been having challenges sort of figuring out strategy, what to do with these properties, et cetera.

So we've had lots of people who have done the property course come to us because there are further questions and, you know, any type of education that you do in anything in life, you then have to sort of use that education to tailor it to your personal needs.

And property is something where everyone's on different paths.
