In this episode, we’re joined once again by Ray Regmi and Dean Desoukey, financial advisers from Ryker Capital, for Part 2 of our conversation on building long-term wealth through smart, practical strategies.

Ray and Dean talk about how one of their clients turned $50 into $700,000 in super, why salary sacrificing is more than just a tax-saving tool, and how most Aussies completely miss the opportunity to set themselves up early, even while earning a good income.

They also break down why it’s never too late to start, how to build a retirement plan even if you’re already in your 50s, and the surprising truth about superannuation that no one teaches you in school.

If you're an aspiring homeowner, a young professional trying to get ahead, or a first-time investor wanting to build real wealth, don’t miss this episode.

In this episode, join me, Gabriel Mikha, along with Ray Regmi and Dean Desoukey from Ryker Capital, as we talk about how the First Home Super Saver Scheme can help first-time buyers accelerate their journey into the property market.

We discuss why starting your financial journey early, even as young as 15, can set you up for long-term wealth, how to think in terms of “micro speed and macro patience” to build disciplined savings habits, and how the FHSSS helps you lock away money without the temptation to spend.

We also talk about how to use the scheme to gain tax advantages while you save, why budgeting is the non-negotiable first step before contributing to your super, and how real-life case studies show couples fast-tracking their home savings with a strategic combo of voluntary super contributions and tax deductions.

If you want to take advantage of one of Australia’s most underutilised tools for first-home buyers and finally feel confident you’re moving toward home ownership, then make sure to listen to this episode!

In our latest episode of From Why to Wealth Podcast, join me, Gabriel Mikha and Andrew Willis, Senior Financial Broker, as we share a powerful but rarely discussed banking policy that could help you slash years off your mortgage and save hundreds of thousands in interest payments.

We talk about how banks are required to assess your loan at a rate 3% higher than your actual rate, how this hidden "buffer" can be turned into a strategic advantage for faster loan repayment, and how making the assessment rate payments could save you up to $346,000 in interest.

We also discuss why putting extra payments into your redraw facility is often better than an offset account, how to maintain higher repayments even when interest rates drop, and how this strategy can create substantial equity for future investment opportunities.

If you want to learn how to potentially cut your 30-year mortgage down to just 16 years while building a significant investment nest egg for your future, then make sure to listen to this episode!
