Here's a simple exercise worth doing. 👇

Add up your essential monthly expenses, then divide your available savings by that number.

If the number is lower than you'd like, start by cutting unnecessary expenses, building an emergency fund and reducing high-interest debt.

🏡 Own your home AND an investment property? Here's something to consider.

Here's something to consider 👇

On a $600,000 mortgage, reducing your interest rate by just 0.5% could save you roughly $3,000 in interest per year.

Call your lender, request a rate review and compare what other banks are offering.

And if you're refinancing, check the fees and avoid unnecessarily restarting your loan over 30 years.

Sometimes saving thousands doesn't require earning more money. It starts with reviewing what you're already paying.

Are you aware of the new ATO rule that applies to every property sale?

All Australian property sellers are required to lodge an ATO tax clearance certificate.

If you sold your house for $900,000, then $135,000 would be held back as a deduction, and you wouldn’t see that money until tax time.

Applying is simple, but don’t leave it to the last minute.

Some certificates can take up to 28 days.

Three things to remember:

1. Each person on the title needs their own certificate.

2. This applies regardless of property value.

3. The certificate must be provided to the buyer before settlement.

Here’s how much you would need to invest each month to reach $1 million by age 65:

• Start at 60: $14,333 a month
Total contributed: $859,980

• Start at 50: $3,155 a month
Total contributed: $567,900

• Start at 40: $1,052 a month
Total contributed: $315,600

• Start at 30: $340 a month
Total contributed: $142,800

• Start at 20: $95 a month
Total contributed: $51,000

The rest of the $1 million would come from investment returns.

The lesson is simple: the earlier you start investing, the less you need to contribute each month.

That is the frustration, right??

You earn money and pay tax on that income. You spend what is left, and tax may be added to what you buy.

Then some things can come with more taxes or charges after you buy them.

So it can feel like the same money is taxed again and again: when you earn it, spend it and keep what you bought.

Different taxes apply at different points. But from your side, they all come from the same pay.

That is why it can feel like you never fully own the money, or even the things you buy with it.

Who do you have in your corner helping with this??

Making good money does not always mean your business is profitable or has cash in the bank.

That is why every business owner should know the difference between revenue, gross profit, net profit and cash.

Gross profit is your revenue minus direct costs.

Net profit is what remains after overhead expenses. And cash is what you actually have in the bank.

These numbers show different parts of your business. When you track them, you can see where you are now and make better plans for the future.

Profit on paper is not the same as cash in the bank.

The biggest financial mistake...

Watching sales, but not profit.

A business can make $5 million in sales and still be broke if its margins are wrong.

Revenue only tells part of the story. Profit margins, cash flow, running costs and the cost to get a customer show what is really going on.

These numbers should guide the choices you make.

That is the real value of a CFO: turning numbers into decisions about what comes next.

Successful businesses use finance as a strategy. They do not treat it like admin work.

You might owe land tax just for working from home.

In Victoria, if you make most of your money from home and earn over $30,000, it may be called “significant business activity.”

If your land is worth enough, that could mean a land tax bill, even when your company is based somewhere else.

For business owners already paying plenty of tax, that is hard to hear.

The tax refund move many business owners miss:

Use your retirement contribution to build your future and create a tax refund.

Then put that refund into your tax-free investment.

That refund can then go towards the next tax-free investment.

The result is a simple cycle:

• Top up retirement savings
• Receive the tax benefit
• Move the refund into a tax-free investment
• Keep building wealth each year

**Your exact refund will depend on your income, contributions and other deductions.

The key is to plan where the refund goes instead of letting it disappear into daily spending.
