Over on our sister podcast, Equity Mates Investing, we've launched a new segment called Pimp my Portfolio. In a nutshell, we're doing to investing portfolios what Xzibit did to cars (explainer for those not old enough to remember)
We get a portfolio from the Equity Mates community, and put it in front of an expert to get their general advice on how the portfolio is constructed and what we could think about to improve it. By doing that we draw out some lessons that we can apply to our own portfolios.
In this episode we feature two Pimp my Portfolio segments. We hope you enjoy.

Are you good with money?
It's a hard question to answer and naturally, we instantly start to compare ourselves to other people in our lives. But the question wasn't 'are we better than those around us' it was are we objectively good?
Emma Edwards has written the book (literally) on being good with money. In this conversation we unpacked what being good with money means to her and how we can all take the next steps to get better (and hopefully ultimately, good) with money.

- Why investing isn’t as risky as you think
- What you need to know to get started
- Why trying to time the market is wasted energy
- The multiple ways to build wealth in the stock market

This summer, we’re taking a journey to financial freedom.

In our fifth episode we’re talking about ways to boost our income. By the end of this episode you’ll have heard how many times we’ve failed at side hustles, learn from our failures and successes, know that you don’t need to earn a lot for a side hustle to be valuable, and have some examples to think about.

This episode was sparked from articles we've recently found like this: Yahoo Finance - 'How much the average Aussie has in savings' and Finder - 'How much money should I have?'.

Some of you may know that we're starting our property journey (slowly, as you'll hear in this episode). Today, we're joined by Andre Botes, Head of Digital, Product and Partnerships for Home Loans at ubank. We ask him ALL the questions on our hitlist, including: How can first-time home buyers in Australia determine how much they can afford when considering a home purchase? What’s the process of applying for a home loan? What are the benefits of having a preapproval when searching for a property?
He also goes through all the jargon that you have to face - offset, redraw, LVR, LMI, comparison rates. Hopefully this episode clears up some hot questions for you!

Our episode today is inspired by James from the UK. He wrote and asked:
Why you wouldn’t just invest in an S&P 500 index fund?
So today we go over 2 reasons why you would and 1 reason why you wouldn’t... First of all: just what is automated investing? Basically, it means you set up a rule with your broker that tells it to invest a consistent amount of money at regular intervals. Generally, it involves investing in a well diversified index fund - could be an S&P 500 index fund or ASX 200 - but ideally a global fund like a Vanguard VDHG or Betashares DHHF. (We've got heaps of resources on our website!)

This Bitesize comes from one of our most downloaded episodes ever! Picture this: the stock market takes a nosedive, but then, out of nowhere, it springs back up. That's what we call a 'Dead Cat Bounce' - a temporary recovery from a prolonged decline or bear market. But don't be fooled, it's usually followed by the continuation of the downtrend, making it a perfect trap for unsuspecting investors. This is a little segment from an episode the guys recorded almost 18 months ago!

Today we're joined by Tori Dunlap - American investor, feminist, founder, and financial educator. After successfully saving $100,000 by the age of 25, she quit her corporate job in marketing to fight for your financial rights. To date, she's helped over three million women make more, spend less, and feel financially confident.

EOFY is approaching, and we had a bunch of listeners reach out with questions for this episode!
Cathy asked: As a new investor, it would be great to know all the basics for tax time.
Well, that'd be a huge episode first of all. So we decided to focus purely on the deductions for now. Importantly we need to stress - we are not tax professionals and we are not aware of your personal financial circumstances. So our first piece of advice is: speaking to a tax professional is tax deductible. So, let's crack in, and look at some of the deductions you can make as an investor.
Also, if you're looking at a few cheeky things to buy before the EOFY, can we tempt you with these offers?
Number one - the Rask + Equity Mates courses! Take a free course or become part of the highly-rated Value Investor Program, with the Promo Code: EOFY until the end of June.

Last week the RBA announced another increase in the cash rate, bringing it to 4.1%.
This is the highest cash rate Australians have seen since 2012, and also signals the 12th rate rise in the past year! So, while this cash rate is bad news for many Aussies with mortgages, it does mean if you’ve got cash in a savings account - make sure those interest rates are working for you. This week Bryce and Alec go through the 5 Best Savings Accounts they could find (as of time of recording - June 2023) to help you supercharge your savings.If you want to let Alec or Bryce know what you think of an episode, contact them here.

This is the tenth episode of our Under the Hood series - but we hope isn't the last. It's been an epic series, and today we're closing out with two of the most popular ETFs in our community - both to do with the ESG and Climate theme. Blair is also back to join us as well as we venture 'Under the Hood' and ask 'how do we invest in emerging trends and asset classes' with these ETFs?
The two ETFs we’re looking at are Global X Global Carbon ETF (GCO2) and the Global X Hydrogen ETF (HGEN)
Global X is a leading player in the ETF industry, with a robust platform and over 30 targeted products globally. They have a trusted reputation with over a million clients in 95 countries, and are uniquely positioned to identify and analyze disruptive companies with their industry-leading research team and global access.

In this episode we look at bonds! After all, they're all over the news at the moment - so Bryce and Alec lean how ETFs can help us get access to alternate assets that aren't just equities. There's so many options for investors these days, how do we navigate all these options when building a portfolio of ETFs?

So, we all hear about credit reports - but what exactly are they, and do they make a difference in your investing journey? The guys sit down and discuss what a credit report is, and how it plays a crucial role in helping lenders decide whether to grant credit or loans.There is no single credit score used by lenders or consumers; rather, Australia's three main credit reporting agencies, Equifax, Experian, and Illion, each generate their own scores based on the data in an individual's credit report. Both Bryce and Alec check out what their scores are and compare notes about what they discover!

We're chatting about the difference between Equal Weight and Market Cap, and using Global X FANG+ ETF (FANG) to understand it. We are joined by Global X's Jessica Leung, who helps us understand the difference. Equal weight ETFs allocate the same percentage to all holdings, whereas market cap weight ETFs hold assets in proportion to their market value. So then we dig into the historical data on the performance of these structures and the reasons you might choose one over the other.
The ETF we’re looking at is Global X FANG+ ETF (FANG)

There's two things you can do in a cost-of-living crisis! Reduce expenses or increase income. Stewart sent us a message to ask for our best ideas - so we've hit up our shortlist!
So Bryce and Alec go through their best ideas of each. To reduce expenses, you need to focus on the significant line items on your budget. The most substantial line items on the budget for Australian households include housing (20-35% on average), food, recreation/culture/transport, insurance/financial services, and health. So! Bryce goes through these line items and the guys chat about their best ideas.

We got a question this week at equitymates.com/contact from Kate about how often we should be investing. Is there an optimum? If you want to be investing regularly and dollar cost averaging into the market, but your brokerage cost is $10 each trade, should you literally be investing every week, or should you be saving it up?
We talk about the factors you need to be considering here: brokerage costs, expected stock market returns and the interest you earn on savings, and how these three things work together.

In this episode, we dive into the world of gold investments, examining the reasons behind its recent surge to all-time highs above $2,000 an ounce.

We both give our takes too on whether it's something we have in our portfolios.

We also discuss the risks associated with investing in ETFs that haven't been carefully thought about! Learn how to think like the experts and weigh the same factors they do before deciding to invest in a particular ETF. Today's ETF that we do real world examples on is Global X Battery tech and lithium.

Are you intrigued by dividends in ETFs and how they function? If you're new to the realm of investing, you may have queries about ETF dividends, their frequency, and their influence on your portfolio. In this episode, we'll demystify the jargon to help you gain a better understanding of how dividends in ETFs operate and how they can bolster your investment strategies.
The simple answer is yes - ETFs can indeed pay dividends. However, this depends on the underlying assets within the fund. An ETF, or Exchange-Traded Fund, is an investment fund that comprises a collection of assets such as stocks, bonds, or commodities. If the assets within the ETF yield dividends, those payments will find their way into your portfolio. In essence, you'll receive the same amount of dividend as if you were the direct owner of the underlying assets.

As you plan for retirement, one question that is likely to come up is whether you should contribute more to your superannuation or invest outside. The answer to this question is not straightforward! Of course, like all investing, it depends on various factors, including your retirement goals, income level, and tax implications. We explore the arguments for both options to help you make an informed decision.
First question you need to answer is: when do you plan to step back from working? The current preservation age is 65. If you want to stop working before that age, you’ll need access to other finances. We then run through all the different questions and considerations for both arguments, and Bryce share our own strategies.

Today it's some of our highlights from our ESG basics episode from 2019. This investment approach takes into account environmental, social, governance, and ethical issues in the investment process, contributing positively to society and the environment while earning financial returns. Negative screening avoids investments in controversial activities, positive screening invests in companies demonstrating responsible ESG practices, and impact investing aims to generate measurable social and environmental benefits.
Several ETFs, such as BetaShares Australian Sustainability Leaders ETF and VanEck Vectors MSCI International Sustainable Equity ETF, are available for ethical investors. It's vital to understand the different types of ethical investing and choose investments that align with your values.

We’ve done the calculations. If you invest just $100 every month for 40 years, you can accumulate over $350,000 - thanks to the magic of compound interest. So, we decided to set ourselves a challenge. Every month, we’re going to look for a way to add an extra $100 to our investment portfolio. We need a plan to save or earn an extra $100 each month to reach our investment goals.
Here’s our ideas for March:
- Sell drum kit
- Do online surveys (AttaPoll)
- Shop around for a cheaper phone plan
We don’t want to do it alone either! Join us on this journey by sharing your ideas on equitymates.com.

In this episode, we cover the 4 signs it might be time to sell a stock. Let's be honest, buying stocks is the easy part. But when it comes to selling, it's a whole different ball game. It's like breaking up with someone, but with money involved. You don't want to regret your decision, but at the same time, you don't want to stay in a bad relationship, I mean, investment.

Chances are at some stage you’ve probably googled ‘effective budget template’. We all want the perfect tool to help us achieve our financial goals... But there’s so many options out there, and it’s pretty overwhelming. Inspired by You’re In Good Company, who talked about budgeting a couple of weeks ago, Bryce and Ren talk through finding the right budget fit for you in Get Started Investing this week.
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to budgeting, just like anything super personal - getting fit, eating well, studying. A great budget is just a really useful tool. It’ll track what you need, how you need it - monitoring your income and expenses, helping you manage your debt repayments, and plan ahead for your financial goals.
The YIGC Budget Template is here.

If you're interested in investing in stocks, you've probably heard of dividends. Dividends are a way for companies to share their profits with shareholders. As an investor, you're entitled to a portion of the profits based on the number of shares you own. Dividends can provide a steady stream of income and are often paid out on a regular basis.
In this Bitesize, Bryce and Ren explain the basics of dividend investing, why Australians love them, and why some companies opt not to pay a dividend.

You may have heard of stocks, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and listed-investment companies (LICs), but what exactly are these options and how do they differ? In this Bitesize, Alec and Bryce define the terms for you - so you won't ever be confused again!
Stocks represent ownership in individual companies. When you invest in stocks, you become a shareholder in that company and have an interest in its success. Historically, stocks have been one of the best-performing asset classes, but they are also known for their volatility.
An ETF is a basket of securities, such as stocks or bonds, that trade on an exchange like a stock. When you invest in an ETF, you are buying a share of the entire portfolio, rather than investing in individual securities. This diversification helps to mitigate risk in your portfolio, and is one of the reasons ETFs have become increasingly popular.
LICs, also known as closed-end funds in America, are similar to ETFs in that they offer diversification by investing in a portfolio of securities. However, LICs are actively managed, which means they are managed by a professional fund manager who makes decisions about which securities to buy and sell.

We think this is the toughest year since we’ve started doing the podcast. Ren think it’s been a reality check - reminding him of the importance of a strong core. Bryce said 2022 showed him DCA is the way to go.
The best way to learn is with the help of others too - so we heard from you!

There's been plenty happening in the world of cybersecurity. From the recent well publicised Optus hack where millions of customers information was breached, to Medibank Private, and now a subsidiary of Woolworths has been hacked.
As John T Chambers former CEO of Cisco says, "There are two types of companies ... those that have been hacked .. and those that don't know they've been hacked."
In today's episode Bryce & Alec discuss the environment and more particularly the investing opportunities in companies and ETF's firmly entrenched in the combat and development of cybersecurity.

Black Friday Sales are a global shopping bonanza.
Alec & Bryce are a little distracted in today's episode as they scour the internet for Black Friday Sales and Christmas present shopping.
But, with all seriousness. We delve into how differently we all react when there is a discount in the world of consumables ... compared to how we think about discounts in the stock market.
People go crazy when they know they can get 15% off toys or TV's for Christmas presents, they'll que up outside a retail shop for hours ... yet when the stock market is down 15%, people will run to the hills.
So let's arm you with the information why when the stock market is 'on sale' ... it's a good time to buy.

We are here today to talk about Government sponsored savings. We are seeing more and more competition in this space.
The second biggest asset manager in the world, Vanguard have recently launched their very own Superannuation fund.
Three years ago Vanguard gave about $100 billion back to the big Australian super funds. And now they have launched their own super fund with a management fee for 0.58% for most options.
In this episode Bryce & Alec take a look at the ATO super comparison website and on first look, the Vanguard fees appear cheaper ... but be warned Vanguard’s fees look cheaper but are not so cheap when up against other Super Funds. Remember, fee's eat away at your returns. Head across to the Equity Mates Forum via our website to see the spreadsheet that Alec has created to demonstrate the comparisons they found.

So much of investing is about mastering your psychology. What you do with your money impacts so many aspects of your life. From short term, to long term. However, what money means to you and how you want it to work for you, will be completely different to what money means to another person.
The number one characteristic that we all have in common is 'autonomy', to be able to do what we want, when we want, and how we want.
Evan Lucas has written a book about it - Mind Over Money and he featured on stage at The Equity Mates FinFest 2022. So in today's episode we share his recorded presentation from FinFest.

"Oh, I don't like investing, it's too risky... it's basically gambling". This is one of the most common reasons we hear for people not investing. That you have to be lucky! That it's just a game of chance.
And while there are some similar elements for consideration - like an amount invested or wagered, risk and a prize... we definitely think intelligent and considered investing is a better decision any day of the week. Ren and Bryce chat through their top 4 reasons, and add 2 bonus ideas in for good measure.

"Oh, I don't like investing, it's too risky... it's basically gambling". This is one of the most common reasons we hear for people not investing. That you have to be lucky! That it's just a game of chance.

Ren and Bryce chat through their top 4 reasons, and add 2 bonus ideas in for good measure.

With last Wednesday being the worst day in the US stock market in the past 2 years. So we thought it was time to break-the-glass and discuss The Triumph of the Optimists.
In the 1950s, who, but the most rampant optimist would have dreamed that over the next fifty years the real return on equities would be 9 percent per year? Yet this is what happened in the U.S. stock market. The optimists triumphed.

In 15 minutes, Bryce & Alec explain why companies IPO, the lessons as investors we need to be aware of, and jargon bust all the acronyms and terminologies you need to know.
They single out a current example in Australian-founded fitness franchise F45. The international dreams of the gym franchise have been shattered after IPO-ing in July 2021 and now going into a nosedive on the New York Stock exchange. A great example of a love-stock IPO-ing with grand ambitions to globally expand, and the lessons to be aware of when things start to not go well.

Bryce & Alec explain why Investing at the worst time ... is still better than not investing at all.
As we know, all investing has it's inherit risks. We've watched those risks play out in markets this year, there's talk of a recession, there's inflation and we've seen a lot of high profile investors sell large amounts from their portfolios. So the question is, if the big guys and gals are selling, what do we do?
Taking a look back through history at some of the absolute worst times to invest, allows us to understand that, "Investing at the worst time ... is still better than not investing at all".

This episode is all about cash. And it applies to our personal finances and the companies we’re investing in.
Bryce and Alec explain what the definition of a recession is and how the market generally reacts.
Basically, in a recession money dries up. Banks become less willing to lend, interest rates are up, credit risks are higher. Investors become less willing to invest as they are generally losing money 'elsewhere' ... they become more risk averse.

There are so many choices in the ETF world, and things are changing pretty quickly so we wanted to do an episode explaining the different types of ETFs out there.
Bryce and Alec explain the key differences between active and passive ETFs, and why they have become so popular with new investors in recent years.

It’s a scary time in markets and in today's episode Bryce & Alec give some practical advice to reassure you.
This isn't the first time that markets have gone down or into a bear market. The beauty of investing is that there are clear historical signs that the markets have gone up, more than than have gone down.
IF IN DOUBT ZOOM OUT - Between 1900 and 2018, the Australian stock market had 23 years where it went down, and 96 years where it went up - meaning 81% of those years were good years.

We're dropping in a special bonus episode - our latest podcast from the Equity Mates team - The Dive. In this episode, Brisbane, Australia’s third largest city, was announced it was selected to host the 2032 Olympics. And when it happens, the eyes of the world will turn to Australia. No small amount of eyeballs either - when Tokyo hosted, the Olympics reached more than 3 billion viewers. Yet, despite all the attention… the Olympics is a terrible business proposition. A study from Oxford found that since 1960, every Olympics has run over budget, by an average of 172%. Today Sascha and Darcy ask - exactly how bad a financial decision is hosting the Olympics?
Tell us what you think of The Dive - email us at thedive@equitymates.com.

The growing popularity of ETF's (exchange-traded funds) among the Equity Mates Community continues. The industry received record net inflows into existing ETFs and a number of successful new launches in 2021. Investors have shown a growing appetite for theme-based ETFs while maintaining similar enthusiasm for active and environmental, social, and governance factor-based ETFs.
We came across some data about the biggest inflows and outflows for ETFs in 2021. Thanks to Morningstar.
There were 5 ETFs that had over $800 million net inflow and 4 ETFs that had over $100 million net outflows.
We can learn a lot about investor preferences from this data, so in this episode, Bryce & Alec unpack and discuss the top 5 most loved, and the top 5 least fav ETF's for 2021.

Micro investing is a clever way to Get Started Investing in the markets. 41% of our Equity Mates community currently use a micro investing platform.
In simple terms, micro investing is where a broker will pool investor money to buy one unit. In Australia you can micro invest with as little as 1cent.
Micro investing gives us the ability to invest in small amounts, it can automate and allow us to set & forget. But most of all it reduces the media and market 'noise' ... by limiting our choice and relive us from worrying about losing big chunks of money.
In today's conversation, Bryce and Alec discuss whether micro investing is 'a thing' anymore.

Investing in your local economy is ok ... However, the opportunity to invest globally means that we can diversify and have access to some of the biggest companies on this spinning planet. We do have to build the skills, but we also do have to 'fill out the forms' to ensure we abide by the laws and treaties of different countries, but also avoid paying too much tax unnecessarily.
Bryce and Alec explain the simplicity of how to complete a W-8BEN-E form which simply ensures you won't be taxed twice should you decide to invest offshore.

Good friend of the Equity Mates Community is Flynn. Flynn is a 30-year-old lawyer and one of the best DCA investors we know. He's NEVER sold a stock he's owned.
Dollar cost averaging (or DCA) is the investing strategy of dividing up the total amount to be invested and periodically purchasing over time in an effort to reduce the impact of volatility on the investment.
Dollar cost averaging is where you invest smaller, fixed amounts on a regular basis. It’s generally done over an extended period.
For example; you may have $2000 you want to invest. Rather than investing the lot at once, you might invest $20 every fortnight.
It takes away the emotion of buying and selling. Regardless of what the market is doing, if it’s up, or if it’s down, you will invest the same amount each time.You don’t have to think about it.
What this means, is when the market is down, you will buy more, and when the market is up, you will buy less. So rather than risking all of your money at once, you buy into the market often, reducing the effect of the market moving up and down.
It can be a great way to build wealth over time.
The inaugural Equity Mates Awards are coming. In this episode Bryce and Alec explain all about this new and exciting awards ceremony, click here to cast your vote. We're calling on you, our Equity Mates community to help recognise some amazing people, so please get involved!

In the past two episodes Bryce and Alec have explained what 'is' a thesis, and why it makes an important tool within your investing journey. They discussed how to record your thesis, when to review it ... and what to do if its broken.
In this episode we’re going to put it all together and understand the ingredients that go into a thesis. Because it's like a recipe - you don’t want to go too heavy on one ingredient. If you understand the company really well, but don’t understand the competitors you could make the wrong investing decision.
Here's the stock pitch guide that Alec and Bryce talked about too.

Bryce and Alec continue their conversation with our wide community of investors, and today they talk to Jessica Irvine, Senior Economics writer for the Sydney Morning Herald.

In this conversation, they talk about what barriers Jessica saw that made her hesitant, how she overcame these challenges, and the resources that were really helpful when she was researching those first steps.

On this episode of Get Started Investing, Bryce and Alec are joined by Dara Hayes… who you might know better by the name DJ Tigerlily. Dara is one of Australia’s most successful DJs… and her day job sees her touring the world, playing some of the biggest clubs across the globe, playing to tens of thousands of people all over the world, from Australia, Asia, Europe and the USA.
What you also might not know is Dara is also passionate about ethical investing - she put pen to paper, metaphorically so to speak, and wrote a blog post on this topic back in 2019. She wrote eloquently about the power of voting with our dollars - and how we choose to invest can send a signal to the market. This episode is a deep dive with Dara on all of that today, but first, the guys hear about the beginning of Dara's investing journey, and the lessons she’s picked up on the way.

today it’s a really special episode… cause we’re taking a break and handing over the reins to the YIGC team! We’re keen to share the limelight with our fellow podcasters who are making epic content, and going from strength to strength. You might remember when we introduced our colleagues Maddy and Sophie earlier in the year, but they have been belting out some awesome episodes of late, and we wanted to take a break, and share the mic with them (and maybe go catch some Olympics while we’ve got the downtime).

We've been on a round the world trip the last few weeks, talking about why investing beyond Australia's borders is a really good idea. Before we boarded the plane home, Alec and Bryce thought it would be good to hear from an expert. So we gave Emma Kirk from Magellan a call, and she agreed to come on the show and talk about how she started investing. Emma is a Key Account Manager - Listed Funds, for Magellan, an Australian fund manager with just shy of $100 billion in assets under management. With over 25 years experience in the financial services industry, Emma has worked at AMP, BT Financial Group and ANZ before Magellan. She talks about why it's a good idea to have a global focus as an investor, and what factors beginner investors should be considering, and then serves up the best analogy of the differences between LITs, LICs, Active ETFs and unlisted funds, with the use of a never-ending Tim Tam packet.

We loved this conversation with Lauren Simmons, who is a trailblazer and inspiration as she was the youngest female trader in the history of the NY Stock Exchange. This episode appeared in the Equity Mates feed, but we wanted more people to hear it, so we've put it in the Get Started Investing Feed as well! Together they have a conversation about hype investing, the dangers of crypto, trends she's heard and noticed in fellow millennials who invest, and her new venture as the host of Going Public. At 22 years old, Lauren Simmons shattered glass ceilings by becoming the youngest, and only full-time, female equity trader on Wall Street, as well as the second African American woman in 226 years.

Last episode, we talked about the importance of investing with a global mindset, and why spreading your money all across the globe (metaphorically at least) is a great idea. Since then, it's been fortuitous timing as Superhero has announced they'll be trading US Shares, Stake has announced they'll be adding the ability to trade Australian shares, and Sharesies are offering US, Aus and NZ trades. We'd love to see these companies also move into Europe, Asia and Africa, but it's still pretty exciting to see how many companies are embracing a global investing approach!
In this episode, Alec and Bryce outline and focus on the three ways to invest overseas:
- Buy shares directly
- Invest in Australian-listed products
- Back the professionals

It's another in our series of mistakes - the ones we've made, and how not to make them again! This week, we’re going to look at the reasons why we keep making these mistakes - known as cognitive biases. A cognitive bias is a systematic error in thinking that occurs when people are processing and interpreting information in the world around them. Unsure about that definition? Basically—our brains aren’t perfect. They often make mistakes when taking in information from the world and trying to make sense of it. A cognitive bias is a term for these mistakes our brains often make.

This is the second of our three part series on Investing Styles! In Part 1 - we covered what we mean when we discuss ‘investing styles’, and what to weigh up when deciding between active v passive. What we discovered, is that decision is easy - buy and hold market indexes, managed funds or broad thematic ETFs. If you've decided you might be active however, then there is so much choice around the different styles you could be pursuing... so in this episode Alec and Bryce look at the different styles of active investing available - through a game!

Forget the idea that you don’t have enough money to invest. Because long gone are the days of our parents when you needed thousands of dollars to dip your toe in the water. Brand new platforms allow us to begin investing with as little as a few dollars and cents - it's called Micro-investing.
In this episode, we talk about the rise of micro-investing, and the way that it operates. We discuss the the benefits - including round-ups and automation, broad exposure and perfect confidence booster, and then the downsides as well - fees, your ability to beat the market, and the range of options on display.

Since then over 10,000 women have attended an event, webinar or workshop in Australia and U.K. and she has partnered with the likes of Financial Times, General Assembly, Fidelity International, Vanguard and run workshops with global law firms, fashion houses, tech companies such as Deloitte and Microsoft. Molly is passionate about empowering women to take control of their own finances (without the boring bits) and is a fully qualified money coach.
We talk to Molly about what the club is, and why she started it, how the move to Australia has gone, if she's noticed attitudes towards money change over the last few years, and her top investing myths that she wants to bust.

Since the creation of the first company, nothing has created more wealth for more people than investing in companies. A lot of this wealth creation is due to the awesome power of compounding. In this episode, Alec and Bryce break down how this works, and look at how compounding has historically held true across the US and Australian markets.
Also, Einstein agrees... “Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it; he who doesn't, pays it.”

On Get Started Investing, We've kind of talked about this topic before, but we thought it was important to revisit WHY we invest. Because as everyday people we can benefit from the pioneering work of the best minds in the world, simply by buying shares in their companies. Instead of working for the companies - relying on them to approve our pay rises - we can flip the script. Get the best CEOs to work for you, all you need to do is buy their shares.

In this final episode we are closing out the series by wrapping up the key themes and sharing some advice we have collected while doing the podcast. Just because the series has come to an end, doesn't mean your listening to the Equity Mates team has to. Come across to the Equity Mates Investing Podcast and continue your journey. We speak to experts, break down key concepts and discuss our own personal investing journeys. Investing is a journey best shared. Being able to talk about concepts and ideas is useful and motivating. The Equity Mates podcast and Equity Mates community is full of like-minded people looking to share their investing journey. Most importantly, good luck on your investing journey.

In this episode you will learn:
- Three key messages we learnt from Patrick O'Shaughnessy:
-
- Go Global - make sure you look outside Australia. The biggest share market in the world is the US; get involved
-
- Be Different - don't always follow the crowd. For good returns, consider trying to be a bit different; rather than just ASX200 index, consider one that is for growth, or momentum, or emerging markets; having a mix is important
-
- Get Out Of Your Own Way - automate what you can, be consistent; take the emotion out of buying and selling
Stocks and resources discussed:
• Millennial Money by Patrick O'Shaughnessy

We've taken the plunge and put money into the stock market through an index fund. Now it is time to take the next step and buy our first company. There are thousands of companies on offer just in Australia, with hundreds of thousands of companies available across the globe (latest estimates 630,000). With so much choice, no one can research every company.
So we introduce three simple ways to cut down that number of companies to a far more manageable list. This is the daunting part for a lot of people. Starting the research process on individual companies and trying to assess which will be good investments.
This episode should make a little easier but most importantly, should remind you that you don't need to get it right every time. No one has a 100% track record in investing. The good thing - to build long term wealth you don't even need to get 50% right. By selling companies you are losing money on, and letting your good picks grow and grow - you can still make money while being wrong half the time.
In this episode we start to unpack how. In this episode you will learn:
- The vast number of companies available for you to invest in
- Three ways you can narrow down your choices
- Look around and use your experiences
- Follow the leader
- Stock screeners
- Key things to keep in mind when buying individual companies

One of the best and worst things about investing in the 21st century: there is never a shortage of information. You can find more facts and opinions on a company than you'll never need, but it also means you can get lost in this sea of conflicting opinions.
One Equity Mates guest referred to it as the "firehose of information" which we think sums it up quite nicely. To manage this information flow, the important skill is not being able to find information but finding the right information. In this episode we break down how we manage information and list some of our go-to sources.
In this episode you will learn:
- How we find information
- Difference between top down and bottom up approaches

At Equity Mates we are the only media company with an official policy on jargon. We hate it and officially are against it. A lot of people in the finance thrive when their clients don't understand what is being discussed and don't know what questions to ask. So, pardon the jargon, but here is some you need to know.
More importantly, at the end of this episode, we explain how we figure out what jargon mean when we come across terms we're unfamiliar with. This will help you do the same next time you come across jargon you're not familiar with.
In this episode you will learn:
- Market jargon: Bull & Bear, CHESS, Equities, Liquidity, ETF, Crypto & Capital
- Company specific jargon: P/E ratio, Income Statement, Balance Sheet & Dividend
- Trading jargon: Portfolio, Volatility, Yield, Diversification, Allocation & Capital Gains
- How to figure out the meaning of jargon you come across in the future
Stocks and resources discussed:
- Equity Mates glossary
- Investopedia
- Equity Mates Discussion Group
