Optimising for Wealth


Listen Later

Let me ask you… what are you optimising for?

Have you ever felt like you’re stuck on a hamster wheel, and no matter how hard you run, you never seem to get to where you want to go?

Or perhaps you’ve gotten lost, and forgotten why you started on the journey in the first place?

Most of the time, owners and investors get stuck in survival mode…

And resort to constantly playing a game of tactics, rather than playing a game of strategy.

You see, being in business is just like chess…

And in chess, you always need to think (and be) three steps ahead.

 

This episode is part seven of our ‘Property and Business’ series with Charley Valher, created to help business owners decide on “what’s next” and get them back on track.

We’ll talk about why you should always think of wealth optimisation in every business stage…
How you can still get back on track to wealth optimisation…
Why hyper-focus is a boon and bane for business owners...
And heaps more!

See you on the inside!
