ASIC’s offset account warning: what borrowers should check, with Sarah Court
1w ago00:34:41Tap to summarizeIn this Australian Finance Podcast episode, Owen Rask speaks with Sarah Court, Chair of ASIC, about what the regulator is seeing across the financial system and why everyday Australians need to pay closer attention to how their money is being handled. Sarah explains ASIC’s role in licensing firms, holding financial institutions to account and stepping in when consumers or investors are at risk. The core of the conversation focuses on mortgage offset accounts after ASIC uncovered failures at banks that meant some customers were not receiving the interest savings they expected. Sarah explains why these problems matter, why legacy systems and weak processes can create real financial harm, and why banks need to fix the basics instead of assuming customers will spot issues themselves. Owen and Sarah also talk about scams, risky investments and the importance of slowing down before handing over money. She shares why MoneySmart can be such a valuable resource for Australians who want plain-English guidance on investing, risk, scams and personal finance. If you want a practical reminder to check your offset setup, stay sceptical of fast-talking investment pitches and understand where ASIC fits into the system, this episode is worth your time before it costs you real money.

Six things we've learnt about money with Pearler's Hayden Smith
2w ago00:45:46Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Australian Finance Podcast, Owen Rask sits down with Hayden Smith from Pearler to compare the money lessons they wish they had understood much earlier. What starts as a conversation about investing quickly turns into a practical discussion about the decisions that shape wealth in Australia: where you live, how you save, what tax does to returns and why good habits matter more than clever hot takes. Owen and Hayden unpack why owner-occupied property is hard to ignore in Australia, especially when cheap leverage and the pension rules tilt the game. They also explain why many investors obsess over the wrong fees, how tax quietly touches almost every money decision, and why a strong saving rate still does more heavy lifting than most people expect. The episode also explores the emotional side of investing. From scary headlines and market downturns to the temptation to constantly switch strategies, they make the case that behaviour is often more important than intelligence. Along the way they touch on diversification, ETFs such as VAS and IVV, the trade-offs between property and shares, and the value of staying invested for the long term. If you want a grounded Australian take on money, investing and building wealth, this episode is full of honest lessons, avoidable mistakes and practical perspective.

Div 293, first-home rules and the SMSF property crackdown
2w ago00:50:53Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Australian Finance Podcast, Owen Rask and Gemma Mitchell unpack a grab bag of money questions that hit a lot of Australians at exactly the wrong time: when tax, super and property rules all seem to be changing at once. They break down Div 293 tax, catch-up concessional contributions and whether high-income earners should still tip more into super when the tax savings are not as generous as they first appear. From there, they work through the proposed SMSF borrowing crackdown, why using super to buy residential property is about to get harder, and what that could mean for people who were relying on leverage inside a self-managed fund. The episode also tackles real first-home and upgrade dilemmas. Should a couple buy together or separately if they want to maximise schemes and flexibility? If you outgrow your townhouse, should you sell it, keep it as an investment, or use the six-year rule before making a call? Owen and Gemma explain the trade-offs around negative gearing, CGT, debt, cash flow and lifestyle without pretending there is one perfect answer. If you want a practical Australian guide to super tax, property strategy and avoiding expensive mistakes, this episode turns a messy week of policy changes into something far easier to understand.

Brandon van der Kolk on building New Money and Buffett-style investing
3w ago00:55:53Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Australian Finance Podcast, Owen Rask sits down with Brandon van der Kolk, the creator behind New Money and author of New Money Strategy, to unpack how a former physio built one of Australia’s biggest investing channels and what he has learned from nearly a decade of teaching people about money online. Brandon explains why he rebranded from Aussie Wealth Creation to New Money, how YouTube rewards trust and evergreen content, and why relying only on AdSense leaves creators without a moat. He also shares the investing framework that shaped his work, drawing on Warren Buffett, Phil Town and Berkshire Hathaway to explain how he thinks about business quality, management, valuation and margin of safety. Owen and Brandon also explore what value investing still looks like in 2026, why Google and Meta stood out to him as long-term winners, what he learned from the Berkshire shareholder meeting in Omaha, and why most investors need a process they can actually stick to. They also touch on Brandon’s book launch, the business of creator-led media and the lessons that matter most if you want to become a calmer, more deliberate long-term investor. If you want a conversation that blends creator economics, practical investing and Buffett-style thinking, this is a strong place to start.

Should you DIY your super? Hayden Smith answers the big questions
3w ago00:48:12Tap to summarizeAustralian Finance Podcast host Owen Rask sits down with Hayden Smith from Pearler to answer one of the biggest questions investors ask once they get serious about money: should you take more control of your super, or leave it alone? Using listener questions as the backbone, they unpack the practical differences between large super funds, direct investment options and self-managed super funds, then explain where people often get tripped up by acronyms, fees and structure. That includes HIN versus custodial models, whether brokerage costs really matter, what ETFs inside super can and cannot solve, and why an SMSF is not automatically the smarter move just because it feels more hands-on. The conversation also widens into the trade-offs Australians face when building wealth more broadly, including leverage, investment property stress, negative gearing and the temptation to over-optimise every financial decision. Throughout the episode, Owen and Hayden keep coming back to the same idea: good investing should be simple enough to stick with, even when life gets messy. If you have ever wondered whether to DIY your super, compare brokers, or rethink how much control you really need, this episode will help you sort the signal from the noise. It is a practical reminder that the best setup is usually the one you understand well enough to keep using for years.Australian Finance Podcast host Owen Rask sits down with Hayden Smith from Pearler to answer one of the biggest questions investors ask once they get serious about money: should you take more control of your super, or leave it alone?

An AI masterclass with Hayden Smith from Pearler
3w ago00:52:59Tap to summarizeIn this Australian Investors Podcast episode, Owen Rask sits down with Hayden Smith, CTO at Pearler, for a practical masterclass on what AI actually is, why it matters for investors, and where the real money may be made across the supply chain. Rather than stopping at ChatGPT headlines, Owen and Hayden break the theme into layers: transformers, data centres, GPUs, memory, networking, cooling, electricity and the raw materials that keep the whole machine running. They explain why AI is not one stock or one app, but a chain of businesses that stretches from software giants like OpenAI, Google and Microsoft through to chip leaders like NVIDIA and the infrastructure companies supporting them. The conversation also brings the investing lens back to earth. Hayden explains why broad exposure still beats heroic single-stock bets for most people, while Owen walks through ETFs investors are already using to get exposure, including IVV, VGS, NDQ, FANG and AINF. Along the way, they talk about bubbles, bottlenecks, valuation risk and why some of the best opportunities may sit in the less glamorous parts of the stack. They also explore what AI could mean for Australian jobs and why much of the value may flow to US-listed businesses. If you want to understand how AI works, where the economic value might accrue and how to think about investing without getting swept up in hype, this episode gives you a clear framework to start with.

Christian Hull on property, calm cash flow and the end of hot money chaos
Jul 601:05:16Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Australian Finance Podcast, Gemma Mitchell sits down with Christian Hull for the final instalment of the Hot Money Mess series and a candid look at what has actually changed after months of money coaching, better systems and a few big life decisions. Christian began this series describing himself as chaotic with money. He returns sounding calmer, clearer and much more intentional. The conversation unpacks the practical shifts that made the difference: separating business and personal cash flow, using simple account buckets, planning for bills before they hit and relying on better numbers instead of panic. They also dive into Christian’s biggest update yet: buying a Sydney property far sooner than expected. Gemma and Christian talk through the values behind that move, what it means to feel calm around debt, and why having a plan matters more than pretending you will never feel fear. If you have ever felt behind with money, overwhelmed by decisions or unsure how to turn goals into action, this episode is a strong reminder that progress usually starts with clarity, structure and support, not perfection. It is a useful wrap-up on how behaviour change and better systems can create real financial momentum.
