Monthly Wrap: Investing in the Future, Free Personal Finance Courses & My Fave Books
Welcome to the July How To Money Wrap! In today's update I catch you up on my latest podcasts, awesome free personal finance courses and my favourite books right now.
Dear How To Money Reader,
It’s been awhile since I’ve graced your inbox, but it’s for a good reason - I promise!
In my day job at Rask Australia, I co-host The Australian Finance Podcast and put together the personal finance content over on Rask Education. In the last six months I’ve helped launch not one, not two, but three jam-packed (and free) courses over on Rask Education.
The first one was my FIRE (financial independence, retire early) mega course, then we launched an ethical investing for beginners course and to top it off, we brought in a mortgage broker and buyers agent to launch a Property 101 course as well!
I’d highly encourage investing your time into one of these, as they’ll all help you to take a major step forward in your personal finance journey.
Now, let me catch you up on what’s new in the How To Money universe!
New From How To Money
I’ve got two brand-new episodes for you today. Firstly, I brought Danielle Ecuyer back onto the show to chat about the US stock market and why you, yes you, should expand your investment horizon beyond our borders.
According to Dani, the companies of the future are often listed in the US, so only focusing on Aussie shares, can lead you to missing out on all the fun.
Then Belinda Hogan, the CFO of 86 400, a neobank recently acquired by NAB, spoke to me about her favourite budgeting and savings tips right now.
Tune into these episodes on your favourite podcast player, or click to be magically transported to Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Now, moving onto a few of the other things I’ve been saving up for you.
