- 1:03Speaker 2: One, at twenty nine years old.
- 1:05Speaker 1: It's actually insane.
- 1:06Speaker 3: When I finished university six years ago, I was in
- 1:09Speaker 3: forty thousand dollars of consumer debt and I had just
- 1:12Speaker 3: seven dollars in my account and no family financial support.
- 1:15Speaker 2: That wouldn't have even included her HEX steck No.
- 1:18Speaker 3: I was brought up on welfare payments and come from
- 1:20Speaker 3: a very low socioeconomic home, and I had absolutely no
- 1:23Speaker 3: financial literacy. It's been a tough but rewarding six years.
- 1:27Speaker 3: My personal net worth has gone from negative one hundred
- 1:30Speaker 3: thousand to now positive two hundred and fifty thousand in
- 1:34Speaker 3: six years.
- 1:34Speaker 2: I love her. Can we hear a story?
- 1:37Speaker 1: Do you love her? I hate her. It makes me
- 1:38Speaker 1: feel like I've nothing with my life.

- 1:42Speaker 1: She's so inspirational, it's actually unbelievable. Let's give her a call.
- 1:51Speaker 4: Hello speaking Hello, is.

- 1:57Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 1:58Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh my god, thanks for joining us on the podcast.
- 2:03Speaker 4: Oh thank you, Caitlyn.
- 2:04Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm Ryan. We've got Victoria Devine here as well.
- 2:06Speaker 2: Hello, friend, how are you?
- 2:09Speaker 4: I'm good? Thank you.
- 2:10Speaker 2: I am so glad to hear. And we've also got
- 2:12Speaker 2: Jess who has just started it. Shee'ese on the Money
- 2:15Speaker 2: and we just thought would make this a group thing
- 2:17Speaker 2: because your story was so cool. So let's start from
- 2:21Speaker 2: the top. What is your relationship with money being like
- 2:23Speaker 2: in the past, I it.
- 2:26Speaker 5: Has been a horrible I was a big subscriber to
- 2:31Speaker 5: money stories that I was bad with money and I
- 2:34Speaker 5: was hopeless with money, and that was the general thought
- 2:38Speaker 5: process of my friends and family.
- 2:40Speaker 4: So it's, yeah, a really bad relationship with money in
- 2:44Speaker 4: the past.
- 2:44Speaker 2: And what do you now do for work?
- 2:47Speaker 4: I'm a high income health professional.
- 2:50Speaker 2: So without being too pervy, while still being totally pervy,
- 2:54Speaker 2: can you tell us how much you earn now and
- 2:56Speaker 2: how much is currently in your bank account?
- 2:58Speaker 4: Well, I it can be anywhere between like two twenty
- 3:02Speaker 4: to two fifty or so, depending on the year. And
- 3:06Speaker 4: at the moment, I actually only have thirteen hundred dollars.
- 3:10Speaker 2: I mean, that's still a good amount of money for
- 3:12Speaker 2: a twenty nine hour to have in their accounts. So
- 3:14Speaker 2: it wouldn't be too down about that.
- 3:15Speaker 4: One my friend speak about anxiety. That's the girl saying
- 3:19Speaker 4: the house off last month and I'm not being paid yet, So.
- 3:22Speaker 2: I totally get that. And what is your attitude to
- 3:24Speaker 2: money and what is currently your big money goal.
- 3:28Speaker 4: My attitude to money now, and it's been a big
- 3:32Speaker 4: mind shift, is that it can give me choices, and
- 3:37Speaker 4: they need to be scared of it, and I'm allowed
- 3:40Speaker 4: to enjoy it. And with those life goals. I'm really
- 3:44Speaker 4: just working forwards that inclomb and the freedom of choice
- 3:49Speaker 4: with no no need to rely on my income.
- 3:54Speaker 2: What is your attitude to investing and do you currently
- 3:57Speaker 2: have any investments?
- 3:58Speaker 4: So my attitude investing has changed a lot this year
- 4:02Speaker 4: because I've just increased my knowledge and read a few books.
- 4:05Speaker 4: So I'm really into the idea of having some passage income,
- 4:09Speaker 4: and I've invested some money in the stock market, and
- 4:12Speaker 4: I'm looking towards getting a investment property. But I'm not
- 4:18Speaker 4: really very knowledgeable, so I'm still just increasing my knowledge
- 4:21Speaker 4: on the topic.
- 4:22Speaker 2: So what debts do you currently have?
- 4:26Speaker 4: I currently have no debt.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Yha best answer.
- 4:34Speaker 2: And what is your best money habit?
- 4:36Speaker 4: My best money habit is now paying myself first and
- 4:43Speaker 4: automating any bills and things. I have been really bad
- 4:48Speaker 4: with buying lots of clothes and just throwing money away
- 4:52Speaker 4: because it just burnt a hole in my pocket in
- 4:54Speaker 4: the past, but now I'm better at letting it sit
- 4:56Speaker 4: there and not being concerned about it slip side.
- 5:00Speaker 2: What is your worst money habit?
- 5:03Speaker 4: Well, now, after the last couple of years of being
- 5:07Speaker 4: a pretty hardcore saver, I have gone into more extreme
- 5:11Speaker 4: measures about savings and a little little bit of anxiety
- 5:15Speaker 4: around like buying clothes at a full price or going
- 5:19Speaker 4: out for fancy meals. I used to enjoy that stuff
- 5:22Speaker 4: so much, but now, given like such a good change
- 5:26Speaker 4: in thought process over the last couple of years, I'm
- 5:29Speaker 4: not as free with it as I was.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Do that makes sense it?
- 5:33Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean in the past, I used to
- 5:35Speaker 4: be shocking with buying like exercise workouts, not even gear,
- 5:40Speaker 4: like plans that I never followed, and I never used
- 5:43Speaker 4: to buy anything and truly have the like get the
- 5:46Speaker 4: full value out of anything. I used to just be
- 5:48Speaker 4: like I buy all the skincare and not worry about it,
- 5:51Speaker 4: And now so much more conscious of everything.
- 5:54Speaker 2: And what grade would you give your money habits if
- 5:57Speaker 2: we forced you to give yourself a grade?
- 5:59Speaker 4: Like maybe?
- 6:00Speaker 1: And what would it take to get to an A plus?
- 6:03Speaker 4: I think if I really still need to work on
- 6:05Speaker 4: my cash flow and just having more automation, like more
- 6:10Speaker 4: automation in terms of investments, really think about an investment
- 6:13Speaker 4: copy without paying me, that would make me an A plus.
- 6:16Speaker 4: I feel like I feel like, well, actually I feel
- 6:18Speaker 4: like I'd be an A plus if I had a
- 6:20Speaker 4: passage income that covered all my expenses. But that's a
- 6:23Speaker 4: little while off yet.
- 6:24Speaker 3: All right, we quickly need to get a quick message
- 6:26Speaker 3: in for the sponsors. However, I'm just going to put
- 6:29Speaker 3: it out there the fact that someone at twenty nine
- 6:31Speaker 3: years of age who's paid off their own house didn't
- 6:33Speaker 3: instantly give them an a plus.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Is I'm really mind.
- 6:36Speaker 2: I'm sorry, that's just the most unrelatable thing to me.
- 6:40Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie, but I'm wildly proud of you.
- 6:42Speaker 2: So I think it's envy. I think that like it's
- 6:45Speaker 2: envy coming from me. But more questions after a word
- 6:48Speaker 2: from our sponsors.
- 6:56Speaker 3: All right, So I just heard all the details from
- 6:58Speaker 3: the twenty nine year old who's paid off her own house.
- 7:00Speaker 1: It's still on the phone. Thanks for sticking around.
- 7:03Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, you are so cool. I cannot wrap
- 7:06Speaker 2: my head around how much you've achieved in such a
- 7:08Speaker 2: short period of time.
- 7:10Speaker 4: Thank you.
- 7:12Speaker 2: So I do have to be a bit pervy, and
- 7:14Speaker 2: I'm sure that everybody listening is going to have this
- 7:17Speaker 2: question as well. Can you tell me a little bit
- 7:20Speaker 2: about how you've managed to pay off your entire home
- 7:23Speaker 2: in the last few years, given you started in personal.
- 7:26Speaker 4: Debt, Well, I must credit my partner because he has
- 7:31Speaker 4: always been excellent with money. We made choices at the
- 7:35Speaker 4: start that I was a little bit disappointed in. We
- 7:37Speaker 4: bought a cheaper house because he thought it was more sensible.
- 7:40Speaker 4: And it took me a while to get around that
- 7:42Speaker 4: idea of paying off the house because I just didn't
- 7:44Speaker 4: know anyone who hadn't. Didn't really single as possible. But
- 7:48Speaker 4: then we just broke it down year by year and
- 7:51Speaker 4: work through what it meant for us because we could
- 7:54Speaker 4: think about the sacrifice which to make what we could
- 7:56Speaker 4: think about or it meant after it had been paid off.
- 8:00Speaker 3: Well, So I got a question for both yourself and
- 8:03Speaker 3: Victoria as well. Obviously, your ability to save and you're
- 8:06Speaker 3: earning a great income is really impressive. Did you ever
- 8:10Speaker 3: consider just paying the minimum amounts and saving the money
- 8:13Speaker 3: for something else? Or because I know a lot of
- 8:16Speaker 3: people wouldn't think to pay off the house first, they'd
- 8:18Speaker 3: be paying that off slowly as they started investing in
- 8:21Speaker 3: other areas and stuff like that.
- 8:22Speaker 1: Was that a decision that you guys had to make.
- 8:25Speaker 4: Actually, we sat down and we did the mask like
- 8:28Speaker 4: a couple of months ago. If we had to put
- 8:30Speaker 4: the money that we had as a deposit into the
- 8:32Speaker 4: stock market versus us purchasing our current house. It ended
- 8:37Speaker 4: up working out very well for us, and that put
- 8:40Speaker 4: me at ease because I did have those very thoughts
- 8:43Speaker 4: when I was then like learning more about investments. So
- 8:46Speaker 4: I was thinking, we did we make the wrong decision
- 8:49Speaker 4: had we not been most financially sensible. But then at
- 8:52Speaker 4: the same time, I know us both well, and we'd
- 8:55Speaker 4: probably saved more because we knew that we wanted to
- 8:58Speaker 4: reduce our liability and we knew we didn't want to
- 9:01Speaker 4: pay in purse on something. For a long time, it
- 9:03Speaker 4: was just a pretty one track mind of just getting
- 9:07Speaker 4: it down. Especially with interest rates being so low, it
- 9:09Speaker 4: just felt, when are we ever going to be able
- 9:11Speaker 4: to own a house for so little interest?
- 9:14Speaker 1: Yeah, just smash it out.
- 9:15Speaker 3: So, yeah, V, what's your thoughts on that, because obviously
- 9:17Speaker 3: it's each to their own and there's all these different
- 9:19Speaker 3: ways to go about it. Yeah, what would you say
- 9:21Speaker 3: if someone was getting advice in that situation.
- 9:23Speaker 2: I'd say exactly that it is absolutely each to their own.
- 9:27Speaker 2: But at the same time, it sounds like you've been
- 9:29Speaker 2: pretty savvy when it comes to making sure that was
- 9:31Speaker 2: the right decision from you, and I think it's a
- 9:33Speaker 2: decision that not many high income health professionals would make,
- 9:37Speaker 2: to be honest, because often you see people trying to
- 9:40Speaker 2: buy property in line with their incomes, and it sounds
- 9:42Speaker 2: like you've bought a property that was actually just really
- 9:45Speaker 2: reasonable to be able to pay off together in a
- 9:47Speaker 2: shorter period of time, instead of putting yourselves in debt
- 9:50Speaker 2: up to your eyeballs and having like a one point
- 9:51Speaker 2: five million dollar mortgage which is obviously not able to
- 9:54Speaker 2: be paid off. So I think it sounds like you've
- 9:56Speaker 2: made the right decisions for you. But again, it's going
- 9:58Speaker 2: to be different for everybody, And I kind of like
- 10:00Speaker 2: that you guys have sat down and worked out what
- 10:02Speaker 2: the best outcome was for you, and I liked it. Ryan,
- 10:05Speaker 2: you asked that just purely because so many people listening
- 10:07Speaker 2: might be like, oh, well, she should have invested, and
- 10:09Speaker 2: it's like, well, actually, for some people, and this is
- 10:12Speaker 2: not a good thing. It's also not a bad thing.
- 10:15Speaker 2: But for some people, a house kind of becomes forced
- 10:17Speaker 2: savings for a lot of people who don't have, you know,
- 10:20Speaker 2: the ability to save, and they might not be as
- 10:22Speaker 2: good at money. The second you've got a property. It's
- 10:24Speaker 2: a lot bigg of a responsibility, and you do feel
- 10:27Speaker 2: like you need to contribute more to it. And I
- 10:28Speaker 2: think that that's, you know, a good thing for some
- 10:30Speaker 2: people in some circumstances as well.
- 10:33Speaker 1: I like that you sat down and worked it out.
- 10:35Speaker 3: I would just sit around forever wondering what if and
- 10:37Speaker 3: never think to whip out the Excel spreadsheet and find
- 10:39Speaker 3: out for myself.
- 10:42Speaker 4: Block market didn't do that well over the last five years.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't go through a pandemic in the house.
- 10:49Speaker 2: I mean, I mean were meant to be investing for
- 10:51Speaker 2: the long term, so she'd not have been investing for
- 10:54Speaker 2: only five years. But that is a story for another day.
- 10:56Speaker 2: My friends.
- 10:58Speaker 1: My next question and V. I don't know if everyone
- 11:01Speaker 1: knows this.
- 11:01Speaker 3: Victoria has a degree in psychology, so I'm also interested
- 11:04Speaker 3: to get your thoughts.
- 11:04Speaker 1: And this is two two degrees in psychology. Someone mistake.
- 11:08Speaker 3: Could you believe I got that right when you said
- 11:12Speaker 3: you'd sort of in inverted commas, decided that you weren't
- 11:16Speaker 3: good with money, and then at some stage decided that
- 11:20Speaker 3: you could be. Was there something specific that changed besides
- 11:25Speaker 3: just educating yourself and doing it, Because I think a
- 11:27Speaker 3: lot of people have this assumption that I know, people
- 11:30Speaker 3: like me don't earn money like that, and it's just
- 11:32Speaker 3: sort of built in.
- 11:33Speaker 2: What was the tipping point for you?
- 11:36Speaker 4: Well, because when I first graduated UNI, I was in
- 11:39Speaker 4: like forty thousand dollars consumer debt and I didn't even
- 11:44Speaker 4: really know what interest was. I sat down and I
- 11:48Speaker 4: looked at how much interest I was playing a mom
- 11:50Speaker 4: and realized what it actually meant for me. So I
- 11:54Speaker 4: really had to take an overhaul and look at all
- 11:56Speaker 4: the necessities of my life and figure out why why
- 12:00Speaker 4: I was spending the money like I was. It was
- 12:02Speaker 4: really really strange because it kind of resocial whole identity
- 12:05Speaker 4: because you're like, why do I feel the need to
- 12:07Speaker 4: buy so many clothes every week? Or why do I
- 12:09Speaker 4: feel the need to do these things? It was almost
- 12:12Speaker 4: like a habit, and I didn't realize that it was
- 12:14Speaker 4: a habit that I could break and then that I
- 12:16Speaker 4: could improve and then I could succeed in it. And
- 12:19Speaker 4: it was paying off that debt and really getting that
- 12:22Speaker 4: down that made me realize that I could be a
- 12:24Speaker 4: lot better with the money.
- 12:25Speaker 3: So the I see you nodding, I know when you
- 12:28Speaker 3: do or did the hour of power, and you get
- 12:30Speaker 3: people do their cash flow and budgeting. Short course, the
- 12:32Speaker 3: first thing you do is to figure out where their
- 12:33Speaker 3: money is. Is this something that everyone does, Is they
- 12:36Speaker 3: finally figure out where their money's actually going and go,
- 12:39Speaker 3: oh my god, I think so.
- 12:41Speaker 2: And I think it's something that you know, you can say,
- 12:43Speaker 2: set goals, and you can say do all of this
- 12:46Speaker 2: fancy stuff, but at the end of the day, it's
- 12:48Speaker 2: actually about your story and your journey and where you've
- 12:50Speaker 2: been and reflecting on that and kind of questioning, well,
- 12:52Speaker 2: why do I make these decisions around money? And why
- 12:54Speaker 2: do I, you know, want to spend money or makeup
- 12:57Speaker 2: and clothes and choose Is it because I love them?
- 12:59Speaker 2: Or is just out of habit? And I think that
- 13:01Speaker 2: once you're faced with the truth of why, you can
- 13:04Speaker 2: actually put yourself in a position where you are much
- 13:06Speaker 2: more confident changing a story because you can see a
- 13:09Speaker 2: pathway forward, and if you don't know where you're starting,
- 13:12Speaker 2: it's really hard to see where you want to be
- 13:14Speaker 2: as well.
- 13:14Speaker 3: Twenty nine, it feels weird just talking to you and
- 13:16Speaker 3: calling you. Take twenty nine year old who's paid off
- 13:18Speaker 3: for own house.
- 13:20Speaker 1: You mentioned that you.
- 13:20Speaker 2: Jeels really objectified. I'm sorry about that.
- 13:24Speaker 3: You said that you start to feel guilty now about
- 13:29Speaker 3: sort of treating yourself for spending money because you think, oh,
- 13:32Speaker 3: that's how I used to be and that's not how
- 13:33Speaker 3: I am now. But I know it's easy for me
- 13:36Speaker 3: to say because I don't earn that sort of money.
- 13:37Speaker 3: But I would have assumed that someone who's earning over
- 13:40Speaker 3: two hundred grand a year should maybe be allowed to
- 13:43Speaker 3: have a nice dinner out once in.
- 13:44Speaker 1: A while and be able to enjoy the money that
- 13:47Speaker 1: they're earning.
- 13:48Speaker 2: So are you just to correct you there? Everyone deserves that, right.
- 13:51Speaker 1: Well, that's what sort of getting it?
- 13:54Speaker 3: Have you tried to find a balance between I want
- 13:56Speaker 3: to be a savvy savior, but I also.
- 13:58Speaker 2: You know, want to live my best life.
- 14:00Speaker 3: I'm glad you said that and I didn't have to do. Yeah,
- 14:02Speaker 3: where are you at with trying to figure that out?
- 14:03Speaker 4: I think, post pandemic and post paying off this milestone,
- 14:08Speaker 4: we're getting better at it. And it's my partner. He
- 14:12Speaker 4: doesn't align with those values. So it's us coming together
- 14:16Speaker 4: and having a nice dinner. What's looks like for you,
- 14:19Speaker 4: like a really nice dinner and then just enjoying things
- 14:22Speaker 4: within balance and moderation for us. Yeah, I think it's
- 14:26Speaker 4: just something that we've kind of been lucky with the
- 14:28Speaker 4: pandemic for the last few months, but we haven't had.
- 14:30Speaker 2: To haven't had those conversations. Yeah, been an option. How
- 14:35Speaker 2: do you how do you deal with that having different
- 14:37Speaker 2: financial values with your partner.
- 14:39Speaker 4: That was the biggest challenge for the whole way through,
- 14:43Speaker 4: because he's always been a one track mind and very
- 14:47Speaker 4: dedicated to it, where As I could see all the
- 14:49Speaker 4: other possibilities if we didn't make this choice.
- 14:52Speaker 3: I like that you said dedicated and not stubborn.
- 14:59Speaker 1: She's just dedicated.
- 15:00Speaker 2: Yeah, she's just dedicated. She's definitely not stubborn and controlling.
- 15:05Speaker 1: But you you seem to have been have found or
- 15:08Speaker 1: are finding it a bit of a happy medium.
- 15:10Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, Yeah, and that's where he has enjoyed enjoyed
- 15:15Speaker 4: a life of being quite frugal but having lots of
- 15:19Speaker 4: opportunities come his way. So for him to understand what
- 15:23Speaker 4: money means to other people has been very helpful because
- 15:27Speaker 4: also just like travel and everything like that, or wanting
- 15:31Speaker 4: to purchase things and no real good reason other than
- 15:34Speaker 4: wanting it has they're really big discussions in our household
- 15:38Speaker 4: and like about what they mean to us. And he
- 15:40Speaker 4: knows that I work hards. I think he's fine about it,
- 15:42Speaker 4: he just doesn't subscribe to it. So it's interesting living
- 15:46Speaker 4: with someone who has got that completely different mindset about money.
- 15:51Speaker 4: They've got they've got no scarcy about it, but they
- 15:54Speaker 4: don't think about it in abundance either.
- 15:56Speaker 2: Yeah, that's really interesting. So what does the future look
- 15:59Speaker 2: like for you guys?
- 16:00Speaker 4: Like I don't think we need to do anything drastic.
- 16:02Speaker 4: We can just keep tripping away the savings we would
- 16:05Speaker 4: have putting into the mortgage, we can just put that
- 16:08Speaker 4: into looking at investments. And it's weird because, like, I'm
- 16:11Speaker 4: doing my job a lot more now that I know
- 16:13Speaker 4: that I don't have to work to survive and get
- 16:16Speaker 4: a home.
- 16:16Speaker 1: Well, you can do what you want with your time
- 16:18Speaker 1: rather than what you have to.
- 16:20Speaker 5: Is that kind of Yeah?
- 16:21Speaker 4: Well, I mean, like already I've been able to just
- 16:24Speaker 4: go from working six days a week to four days
- 16:26Speaker 4: a week, So that has had a huge shift in
- 16:30Speaker 4: just my general life and being able to focus on
- 16:32Speaker 4: like health and other pleasures in life. Working and my
- 16:37Speaker 4: health suffered and my mental health suffered.
- 16:39Speaker 2: But yeah, that is honest, yeah, and so cool. I
- 16:45Speaker 2: cannot believe it. In fact, it's making me question whether
- 16:48Speaker 2: what I'm doing is the right thing. Obviously I love it.
- 16:52Speaker 2: Victoria is being not that financially free.
- 16:54Speaker 3: Well, one of your big things be is try not
- 16:56Speaker 3: to compare yourself with others. And we're both sitting here
- 16:58Speaker 3: shaking our heads, going, how has this girl pulled it off?
- 17:01Speaker 3: And look at us suckers in here?
- 17:02Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I know, right, And I think the
- 17:05Speaker 2: and I say this all the time, comparison is definitely
- 17:07Speaker 2: the thief of joy.
- 17:08Speaker 1: You're thiefing my joy.
- 17:09Speaker 2: I'm sorry for you're leeving your joy, But I think
- 17:12Speaker 2: it's one of those things. It's so awesome to hear
- 17:14Speaker 2: other people's money stories and how they're doing things, and like,
- 17:17Speaker 2: I always compare myself. Like I say, you shouldn't be
- 17:20Speaker 2: comparing yourselves, but I put myself in a position every
- 17:23Speaker 2: single time I hear a story like this. But then
- 17:25Speaker 2: I think it's important at the end of stories like
- 17:27Speaker 2: this to go, you know what, this is totally cool
- 17:30Speaker 2: for them, and I forget the comparison part moving forward.
- 17:33Speaker 2: So if anyone's listening and they're not feeling all that
- 17:36Speaker 2: crash hot. I get you, I feel you. But at
- 17:39Speaker 2: the same time, stories like this help us understand where
- 17:42Speaker 2: we want to go.
