"It's pretty hard to get to the point of financial independence if you do nothing but put your money in the bank." Paul Benson says it perfectly!Investing is a word that many understand the meaning of, but few understand the diverse options that are available. Australians seem to have an obsession with property but have you considered other investment options outside of bricks and mortar?In this episode, we are joined by Paul Benson, who dives into the three avenues of investment: property, shares, and self employment (a.k.a., the 'side hustle').Specifically, Paul talks about different ways to start a side hustle and gives some examples of traits he sees make these most successful.Paul also breaks down the different types of share investments - traditional, ETF's, managed funds - and their benefits from both a risk and diversification perspective.Finally, you can check out Paul's incredible podcast, Financial Autonomy, here:https://financialautonomy.com.au/audio-blog/Don't forget to follow us on our socials:W
