Full details can be found in the show description.

My name's Glen James, former financial advisor.

I host this show and a show called Retire Right.

I've got some books, the award-winning Quick Start Guide to Investing and the Quick Start Guide to Your First Property available where good books are sold or in the description.

If you're new here, welcome.

If you're an old hand, welcome to M3.

Let's get into it right now.

Okay, here's another what would you do.

I'm mid-40s with a partner and one child.

House has paid off, maxing super and aggressively investing into ETFs each pay.

After my father recently passed, I found out my mum's estate is worth somewhere between 10 to 15 million, which she has said she will split evenly between my sister and I in her will.

She's mid-80s.

And sorry for the loss of your father, Anonymous.

I know I should not count my chickens before they hatch, but I can't help feeling I should take my foot off the pedal, re-maxing super and or aggressively investing and start looting a little more.

What would you do?

And if you are new to the show, I've got a philosophy called loot.

which stands for life on own terms, which is basically you're on this speck of dust in the middle of infinity for 80 or 90 years.

Why not try and set your life up to do what you want to do, which is life on your terms now?

What would you do?

Well, he talked about maxing super.
