I'm absolutely like a little kid in a Christmas candy store because I've got one of my all-time favorite authors on the show!... Steve McKnight, the author of “From 0 To 130 Properties In 3.5 Years.” Which is the fabulous book I read when I was 20 years old, giving me huge inspiration for my investment journey.

Today, we've got him on the show chatting about what he's been up to for the last few decades, as well as his new book, “Money Magnet: How to Attract and Keep a Fortune That Counts”, which has been very much my focus of the podcast over the last few months. 

Your inner game and mindset is far more important than the tactics and the how-to, so I couldn't be more aligned with Steve, and I'm sure it'll inspire you to pick up his book to read across your Christmas break, and this is going to be a great episode. 

Lets go inside!

About the guest:

Steve McKnight is an Investor, Author & Philanthropist. 

Aside from being an accomplished investor, McKnight is one of Australia's most successful business authors and acclaimed public speakers. 

McKnight is best known for his first book, From 0 to 130 Properties in 3.5 Years, which followed his experience buying a large amount of property in a small amount of time, and in doing so, being planted firmly on the path to financial freedom. The book became Australia's #1 selling real estate book and sold more than 200,000 copies. It was awarded 'Business Book of the Year' in 2004.

His latest book, Money Magnet, was released in November 2022. Whereas McKnight's other books have a real estate focus, Money Magnet shares general wealth principles that he has used to attract and keep a fortune that counts

McKnight's current real estate portfolio provides an annual six-figure investment income which he uses to fund his financial freedom and to support the causes and charities close to his heart.
