Quotes:

“The media focuses on bad news rather than good news…They haven’t been talking about balance of trade, which is net of import and export…In 2022, the net of trade is 134 billion dollars. We have exported goods less than Imports. If we go back 4 years earlier it was only 15 billion dollars.”

“In terms of growth sustainability The war has pushed nations and corporations to look for alternative sources of energy and trade. Once new channels are set up, I don’t believe they will go away completely. Some of this growth will be sustained and some will go.”

“Inflation has been tied big time with interest rates rising from 1.1 to 3.1% in less than 3 months.”

“The change upward in price for a same unit of item is what we call Inflation. The demand is more because the supply wasn’t able to meet first demand and the next demand comes along. The supply is disrupted.”

“One thing you need to be aware of is making sure your interest rates are aligned with market rates. Lenders negotiate their rates.”

“Any property you own that you think went up in value you should call your lender and reevaluate your LVR to drop down your interest rate.”

“The key is to understand where you are right now, what actions you should take to mitigate a change in your situation.”

“All we are talking about is managing the uncertainty in the equation…We always need to do a health check on our portfolio and see what can be done to enhance it.”

“A lot of people are ready to go into market and buy property, but because of all the rumors and all the noise, they are sitting aside and waiting for this uncertainty to go.”

“Get educated, and learn how to decode how much of news is real and how much is just noise. Once you get educated, you don’t care anymore what the media says.”

40:31 to 41:01 “It’s a journey. People say I bought a property full stop when it’s not the case. It’s an ongoing journey. If you’re looking to build your wealth then you need to keep going with it.”
