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 Campbell 1:47
It is wonderful to be back, Owen, for our very first Q&A for 2022. Yeah.
Owen Rask 1:52
I was going to say, as I was preparing for today's episode, when was the last time we did a Q&A? We're supposed to be doing these every month and we haven't done for ages. When was the last time?
Kate Campbell 2:02
Our producer Monique and I looked this morning and it was around mid-November. So it has been a while.
Owen Rask 2:07
Wow. Okay. We're well behind. So fortunately, there's the Facebook group. If you are interested, the Rask Australia Facebook group, there are about 3,000 people in there now, right?
Kate Campbell 2:18
I think about 4,000, Owen. 4,000. That's so great since you've been gone with COVID.
Owen Rask 2:23
Yeah, yeah. So there are some fantastic answers to questions in there. I know every child thinks their baby is beautiful, but it is probably the best tempered, most respectful finance community I've come across. Not so many, what do you think of this stock? Or here's why I think this stock is going up. No one disagree with me. It's actually a really productive company. kind of like people that are in touch with the emotional side of money as well. So it's great to see. So if you have any questions, you can send them through there and we'll refer to some in today's episode. We might also add that actually I do have, or I just, I'm coming out of COVID now. So if my voice does give way, I apologize. Maybe I'll lean on you, Kate, for much of this episode.
Owen Rask 3:06
We've got some questions on timing and when to buy ETFs and shares. We've got questions around having a partner who may not be on board with money. We've got a question around leaks or LICs and buybacks and a heap of kind of like interesting stuff. There's a bit of meat on these questions.
Kate Campbell 3:23
Yeah. which is really good. I had fun going through the podcast inbox because it has been a while and there was a lot of questions, but just trying to find a few different ones that we haven't spoke about recently or at all before. And that's like, especially the first one about working out your ideal investment frequency. That really sent me down a whole rabbit hole. So that'll be a fun one to unpack.
Owen Rask 3:44
Yeah, for sure. Just before we get into it, some disclaimers. You reminded me to do two today. Any of the answers to the questions today are strictly limited to general financial advice.
