I publish these net worth updates to keep us accountable, inspire others and show that reaching financial independence in Australia is very doable without winning the lotto, having a high paying job or inheriting a wad of cash. The formula to get wealthy enough to...

I was chatting to a friend the other about these net worth updates, and he mentioned something that I hadn’t really thought of before. “I really like the progression table at the end of your updates mate. When I first read the title of your net worth posts, I thought...

Late update this one. Even though I'm only working part-time, it was a pretty busy April/start of May. Two major updates: We sold IP3 🎉 We have gone unconditional on another PPOR (the first house we got accepted on fell through due to a bad B&P report) I'll make...

My (f)unemployed dream came crashing down in March...  that's right, I messed around and got myself another... job 😲 But this time it's different. And I'm really excited to share some of the details with you guys (I might even make a pod about it). This shouldn't be...

Ahhh 2020... the gift that just keeps on giving... London went back into lockdown at the start of November, which to be fair, a lot of people were predicting. So it didn't come as much of shock to most people but it still sucked. But what really felt like a Tyson...

October was mainly a forgetful month for many reasons this year 👎 with a few highlights sprinkled in. Firstly, as you may have remembered from last months update, we went for a little holiday to Greece/Italy for 2 weeks in September. Now, you'd think that when someone...

How tf is it the end of September already!? Man, I remember thinking about this once in a lifetime Euro trip (that we're currently on) for years and now we only have a few more months here before we head back home... and that's if we are even allowed back home 😅. The...
