You know, your money makes more money and then it just keeps going.
And I was amazed.
And remember back then, that was like the early 90s, which will give you a bit of an idea of my age.
Interest rates were astonishingly high.
You know, like mortgages in the late 80s were 15% plus.
It would be like buying a house on a credit card, right?
So, you know, the interest we're talking about is much higher than it was compared to today's rates.
And, of course, I had a few calculations with that and I was blown away.
That was it.
I was hooked.
And so, yeah, from 10 really it started.
And then I just got interested in earning as much as I could through high school.
And then when I got to university, I got interested more in investing myself and started investing when I was 19.
And so I just kept going with that.
I bought property to start with, bought a few properties and then got into shares.
And then one day when I was finishing up work because I was having my first child, we were working out whether I needed to go back to work.
And I went, oh, look at that.
I've got enough money to cover our living costs from my shares and my properties.
Wow, that's pretty cool.
I don't think I had deliberately tried to get to a certain amount.
