Was chatting with author of Money Does Grow on Trees and one of Australia’s top IFAs, Peter Ziggy Tsiglopoulos about Millenials and money worries.

We were talking about  Tim Gurner, a luxury property developer in Melbourne responsible for over $3.8bn in projects, and comments he made on 60 Minutes in Continue reading →

Welcome to Day 24.

Yesterday we started a new game called, “I am millionaire because …”

You know how it works. Just make it up. But make it at least believable. I saw a list that said, “I am millionaire because I am a Hollywood movie star.”

OK, if that’s true – if you are an actor in Hollywood – or you’ve just finished a course at Continue reading →

Welcome to Day 23. OK yesterday you were sorting all your reasons into real and made -up. Before we move forward, any insights?

Well people on the live course say, “Most of my reasons are made-up!” What does that mean? It means the reason you aren’t a millionaire might come down to the way you think and behave. See if you think it’s not possible for you to be millionaire, why bother Continue reading →

Welcome to Day 20. (If you missed Day 19, here’s the link. I suggest you go do Day 19 because it was an important good session. For your reference, this section of the I am a Millionaire programme started on Day 17).

We are continuing the activity started on Day 17. I talk to successful business people all the time and a lot of them imagine being wealthy but are reluctant to put a figure on Continue reading →

Welcome to Day 19. If you missed Day 18, here’s the link.

On Day 17 we started an activity where I gave you an open ended statement and you had to finish it with something that was true for you – good, bad or ugly – relevant to that statement.

If your just visiting out of curiosity, the statement was:

I am not a millionaire because …

Set your timer for ten minutes. (Yesterday was seven minutes. Why seven or ten Continue reading →
