In this packed Q&A episode, Stuart answers listener questions from all stages of life and wealth, covering everything from young families building momentum to seasoned investors managing multi-million-dollar portfolios. Amit asks whether to sell a newly built property in Beveridge and reinvest closer to Melbourne, like Frankston, for long-term compounding, and weighs up whether to redevelop or sell his current home before buying into a better school zone. Ron from Brisbane wants to know if he and his wife can retire early by splitting time between Manila and Australia, and whether they should prioritise debt reduction, super contributions, or property investment. Zach, a new dad in his 30s, asks where to focus over the next decade: offset savings, shares, or prepping for property, especially with a trading trust in the mix.

Blair shares his proposed ETF allocation inside his SMSF and seeks Stuart’s thoughts on tilting toward value and emerging markets. Anthony, a high-end developer with a strong property portfolio, questions whether to prioritise super contributions now or allow compounding to work its magic with his standout A-grade asset. As always, Stuart offers grounded, evidence-based insights that help each listener weigh lifestyle, tax, and long-term goals. A must-listen for clarity at any stage of your financial journey.
