The biggest mistake we make with our money
Find out the number one mistake Australian women make with their money, as we chat to Louise Gooden from Halogen Private Wealth Services.
What would you spend your last $50 on?
Pay my mobile phone bill. I need to stay in touch with opportunities and friends.
If you had a windfall of, say, $1,000, what would you do with it?
Start a savings plan. It’s amazing what you can make from a small start.
What if the windfall was more like $10,000?
A managed fund savings plan and I’d add a small amount of borrowing to accelerate my plans.
What’s the biggest mistake women make with their money?
Relying on a man for their wealth creation plan! Women can create financial independence on their own.
What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given about creating wealth?
Don’t be overwhelmed by all the jargon. Creating wealth is simply a process that can be taught and learnt.
What’s one thing I can do today to make a difference to my financial future?
The average Australian women has 6 super funds from all their early jobs. If you have more than one look to consolidate them to save on fees.
