Property investors often talk about using debt to build wealth. In the share market, that's called gearing. With the BetaShares WealthBuilder range, investors can access moderate gearing into shares, and with the newly launched GG-BL, That means exposure to a diversified portfolio of around 1,300 global companies excluding Australia, all with no loan applications, credit checks, or margin calls. Gearing magnifies both gains and losses, so it's only suitable for investors with a very high tolerance for risk. You can learn more about the WealthBuilder range of ETFs at the BetaShares website. And don't forget to read the PDS and TMD to decide if it's right for you. BetaShares Capital Limited is the issuer.

Kate, welcome to this episode of the Australian Finance Podcast where we're talking setting and achieving money goals.
Kate Campbell 2:08
which has actually been a highly requested episode. So I thought we'd dedicate today to discussing everything to do with setting and achieving your money goals and not leaving it to chance or to January.
Owen Raskovich 2:21
Because we all know people tend to leave things to the end of the calendar year and they say, I've got a New Year's resolution. It's normally like health and fitness and the other things money related, right?
Kate Campbell 2:36
I think my health and fitness one this year was do 10 push-ups, but I have not gotten anywhere with that because I do not have a plan. And that's something we do talk about in this episode is actually making a plan.
Owen Raskovich 2:47
Just so I can confirm, you're saying 10 push-ups in total or 10 in one go?
Kate Campbell 2:51
10 in one go. I think over the course of this year, I have done over 10 push-ups because we had a charity push-up challenge at work. But 10 in a row, not on my knees is the challenge. Oh, not on your knees. Yeah, that adds an extra level of complexity to things.
Owen Raskovich 3:07
Yeah, it does. And how did you go when you did the one at work? How many did you get to?
Kate Campbell 3:10
Oh, I was doing them on my knees. Oh, right. I wasn't telling them that there. Yeah.
Owen Raskovich 3:16
Okay. So this episode is not about pushups, but we are talking money goals. So I think the first point that we have in our show notes is to talk about what are your priorities. So maybe you can just flesh that out and how people can, I guess, just even think about setting goals in the first instance.
Kate Campbell 3:34
yeah absolutely so i think yeah before you even set the goal you've got to work out what is important to you to achieve in the short term and the long term and your priorities because you might have 10 things you want to achieve in your financial life but you just it's not feasible to achieve them all at once or even all in the matter of 10 years maybe one of your goals is paying off your mortgage, but that might be a 20 or 30 year goal for you. So it's often trying to work out a priority list and what's most important to you to achieve first.
