The 3 Questions That Will Change How You Make Every Financial Decision

from Financial Autonomy

Most people are doing everything right with their money... saving, investing, planning for retirement... and still end up building a life they don't actually want. What if the reason had nothing to do with your portfolio, and everything to do with 3 questions you've never been asked?  In this episode, Paul walks you through all three. They take 10 minutes to answer but could change the next 30 years of your life. Because once you're clear on them, every financial decision becomes easier to make.  In this episode:  The question that exposes the gap between the life you're funding and the life you actually want  Why most people answer the first question too fast (and completely miss the point)  How to prioritise when you can't have everything at once  The test that reveals your real non-negotiables in life  A quick sense-check for whether your current financial path still makes sense  The warning sign that your money and your life have gone in different directions  One question that makes your next big financial decision obvious    READY TO SORT YOUR FINANCES?:   Book an appointment with Paul here.  WANT TO STAY ACROSS WHAT'S MOVING THE MARKETS?:  Subscribe to GainingCHOICE, our weekly email unpacking the key headlines and what to pay attention to.  GOT A FINANCE QUESTION FOR PAUL?:  Send it to [email protected], and it could be featured in his Ask an Expert column each Sunday in The Age and Sydney Morning Herald.  General advice disclaimer
