  • Welcome to the Money Side Up Podcast, the go-to personal finance show for Australians around the world. In this tenth episode, your hosts Jarrad Brown, Senior Financial Planner for Australian expats in Singapore, and Will Cant, Senior Financial Planner with Ally Wealth Management in New South Wales, unpack some crucial updates and insights in finance.

    We kick off with a discussion on the recent Federal Reserve's surprise 0.50% rate cut—the first since the early days of the pandemic. We'll dive into what this move could mean for markets, why further cuts may be on the horizon, and what signs (or lack thereof) point toward a recession.

    Next, we’ll check in with the RBA, which has kept rates on hold, and what may be in store for mortgage holders in Australia in future.

    Then we sit down with Jack Henderson, founder of Henderson Advocacy, Endeavour Build, and Henderson Develop. Jack shares his journey from buying his first property at 18 to building a $35 million portfolio. Tune in as Jack reveals his unique “Flamingo Investment Strategy,” designed to help entrepreneurs and professionals find off-market opportunities and grow their wealth through property investing.

    Whether you’re looking to understand rate cuts, follow market trends, or level up your property investment game, this episode has something for every expat and Australian property investor!
