Description

If it wasn’t said by a top financial adviser, you might dismiss it as a quote out of context, but  Partners Wealth Group Jack Tossol is not kidding: He says a generation that has ‘sunk everything’ into the family home will miss the chance to have a successful tax-deductible investment plan.

It’s a provocative notion, challenging die-hard principles of money management, but with house prices moving higher again...you have to listen.

Financial adviser Jack Tossol of Partners Wealth Group joins Associate Editor - Wealth, James Kirby,  in this episode.

In today’s show, we cover

  • No tax deduction, no income…Is home ownership overrated?

  • Why ‘Rentvesting’ is worth revisiting

  • Are you facing decades of ‘dead money' in your home mortgage?

  • Challenging the ‘retirement sweet spot’
