Transcript
- 0:00Welcome to Raisin the Curve, a podcast designed to teach you everything that you need to know to be better with your money.
- 0:06Come and learn alongside me, Sophie Hallwright, a total beginner from the finance expert Victoria Harris.
- 0:12So I've asked all of the questions you wish you could so that finance, investing and growing your wealth actually makes sense.
- 0:18Yes, it's expert education, but with promise will not be boring. And in the wise words of sheer...
- 0:23My mom said to me, you know sweetheart, one day you should settle down and marry a rich man.
- 0:28And I said, Mum, I am a rich man.
- 0:30Come and talk and learn and laugh with us because together we really can raise the curve.
- 0:36So last August we released an episode called...
- 0:38Last August. I know.
- 0:40Wow, God time flies and having fun girl.
- 0:42It was like raising the curve 70 something. When I was looking at it, I was shocked at how old it was.
- 0:48Yeah.
- 0:49Religion felt like that longer. It was my grandma left behind a million dollar portfolio.
- 0:54And with the world's biggest investing club starting to really ramp up in terms of behind the scenes,
- 1:00we thought in the last year there must be a lot of people who have found this podcast and didn't listen to that episode.
- 1:05So we wanted to do a little remake.
- 1:08This is like the curve archives episode.
- 1:11We had so many cool messages when we released this episode from people saying,
- 1:18Oh my God, I really want an investing club.
- 1:20And also how amazing your grandma was.
- 1:22Like 50 years ago.
- 1:24Don't give it away for people.
- 1:26It's like a lesson. Sorry.
- 1:28But yes, we're going to go into that episode again in a second.
- 1:30It was really what sparked us to think.
- 1:32There's definitely something in this.
- 1:34Like if there's that many people messaging us saying,
- 1:36Oh my gosh, that was so cool. The programmer did that.
- 1:38Yeah, and like all our guy friends had WhatsApp groups and like Reddit groups where they would talk about investing in stuff.
- 1:46And none of our girlfriends did it.
- 1:48Why not? Let's create something.
- 1:50And maybe it's because there's nothing cool out there that resonates with them.
- 1:52So we're like, let's do something.
- 1:54Let's go to this episode. If you have listened, maybe listen again.
- 1:58If you haven't, definitely listen.
- 2:00Because this is, I felt very proud to talk about this release this episode.
- 2:06We've got an update on the world's biggest investing club, don't we?
- 2:08Yes. You can have to listen to the end of the episode.
- 2:10Yeah, we'll do it at the end.
- 2:12Or if you have listened to this before and you just want to jump to the end, fine.
- 2:18Mike Remma, she was very amazing.
- 2:22And I feel like it's only really since she died that I've started to learn more about her.
- 2:28And the more that I've learned, the more I've been impressed with the stuff that she did throughout her life.
- 2:32So we were going through all her like beautiful antique clothing.
- 2:36And we found her knitting needles. And we found her Spanish cassettes.
- 2:40Because she was learning Spanish.
- 2:42We didn't see her pass away.
- 2:44She was 18, 19, 20.
- 2:46Yes, so it was 14 years ago.
- 2:48Quite a while ago.
- 2:50Yes, so she used to learn Spanish in her spare time.
- 2:52I mean, just even doing that is quite incredible.
- 2:54And she, I mean, she worked in the MI5 or MI6, I can't remember which one.
- 3:00Which is like spy unit of like the UK or something.
- 3:02Yeah, it's like so cool.
- 3:04So yes, anyway, they met when they were over here in the UK.
- 3:08She worked as a secretary in the MI5 where my socks really need to get that right.
- 3:12It just reminds me of like some movie like a section or like a bodyguard.
- 3:16Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 3:18It's so cool. And then my granddad was worked as a doctor during the war.
- 3:22So this is second world war.
- 3:24Anyway, they migrated to New Zealand.
- 3:26And then she started having kids.
- 3:28So they would have been early 30s.
- 3:30And that's super late to be having kids when you're back in the day.
- 3:34Because this was like, you know, 80 years ago.
- 3:36Anyway, one of the things that she did throughout her life was invest.
- 3:40So she invested for, gosh, I think it was about 50 years in the end.
- 3:45And I've only just sort of recently come to know this.
- 3:48Because my dad, when my granddad died, my dad inherited the investment portfolio.
- 3:53Yeah.
- 3:54And so this was something that was when Debbie died.
- 3:57The investment portfolio moved to be under his name.
- 4:00Yeah.
- 4:01And then when he died, it's been moved to be under my dad and my uncle's name.
- 4:04And you like dad, can you leave it to me please?
- 4:07It's generation to generation.
- 4:09I mean, less dad.
- 4:10He's like, no, I'm leaving in there, of course, but I'm going to take it out.
- 4:12And I'm like, oh, you're such a genius.
- 4:14But I don't know.
- 4:15I feel this weird serendipity, like connection to her.
- 4:18Now that I know that she was this massive pioneer when it comes to investing.
- 4:22So she had an investing club with her female friends.
- 4:26Which even that back in the day is like, while the fact that she could even find some friends
- 4:31that were interested in investing and doing it, like she had that initiative
- 4:34and then did it on a regular basis is just like, so cool.
- 4:38So she, they met, I think once a month.
- 4:40And there was a bunch of women and they had sit down and have tea and scones
- 4:43and talk about companies they wanted to invest in.
- 4:46Yeah.
- 4:47So cool.
- 4:48And they invested every, I don't know, I actually know how much.
- 4:50She was given a lump sum of money from her family.
- 4:54And with that, she was allowed to do with it what she wanted.
- 4:58So rather than buying stockings and make up and all the things that are going on holiday, whatever.
- 5:03And she decided to invest.
- 5:06Go her.
- 5:07Go Debbie.
- 5:08And so my granddad.
- 5:10And just for context, this is a time in the stock market is pretty bloody scary.
- 5:14Like it's, you've had the great depression, like the 1929 stock market crash,
- 5:20which caused the great depression, but like scared a lot of people out of investing.
- 5:24You know, this is the time when it's post-war.
- 5:27You know, it's not the most stable economic time to be investing.
- 5:32Anyway, so she, my granddad, he would pay for the house, he would pay for food, he would do all the basics and necessities.
- 5:39And then she was allowed to do what she wanted with that money.
- 5:42So this is money that she earned.
- 5:44So she kind of invested the money.
- 5:45Well, I don't know if it wasn't just the money she earned because she wasn't working when she came to New Zealand.
- 5:50But it was, yes, I guess what she had accumulated from working at MI6 and MI5.
- 5:55And also the amount that she was given from her parents is kind of like not a dowry.
- 6:00But he has some money to help you in New Zealand and a thing.
- 6:03Yeah, yeah.
- 6:04And luckily my granddad was, because he was a doctor and a surgeon, he was able to pay for the necessities.
- 6:09So she had the opportunity to do what she wanted with that money.
- 6:12Yeah.
- 6:13But rather than just splashing it on things, the fact that she was researching companies,
- 6:17going to an invest in club and then actually invested, blows my mind.
- 6:21Keeps it in there for 50 years.
- 6:23That's nuts.
- 6:24That's crazy.
- 6:25So she didn't pull that money out.
- 6:26So she basically has invested and that money has grown now to be a million dollars.
- 6:32Yeah.
- 6:33And she's passed that on.
- 6:34It's like a...
- 6:35And what, it started at about 12,000 dollars, wasn't it?
- 6:37Oh, it's just like...
- 6:38Which is, which is 50 years ago would have been a lot of money anyway.
- 6:41Totally.
- 6:42Going from 12,000 to a million, like that's wild.
- 6:45Yeah.
- 6:46But over 50 years, it's so doable.
- 6:48But it's just a lot of us do not keep our money in for that long.
- 6:51You know, we get, we grow a little bit, maybe 10 years.
- 6:54We're like, oh, okay.
- 6:55I'll take it out now.
- 6:56I'm going to go spend it because it's growing.
- 6:57So, yeah, quite amazing.
- 6:59Oh, it's just so cool.
- 7:00I feel very proud and grateful.
- 7:04Because that's going to change my dad's retirement.
- 7:06That's going to change my uncles.
- 7:08Sorry.
- 7:09I've got to start calling it the 20th.
- 7:10Oh, yeah.
- 7:11We're rebranding retirement.
- 7:12We're rebranding retirement.
- 7:13But that's going to make such a difference for them.
- 7:15You know, like the man of financial pressure, that's going to take off of them.
- 7:19It's huge.
- 7:20And I love that your dad's like, I want to try my hardest to not touch it.
- 7:23So that he can pass that on.
- 7:24You know, like, I would love to be able to pass on money.
- 7:27Yes, I'm saving for my own retirement.
- 7:29But, you know, if I get to a point where there's money in there that I don't spend,
- 7:32I would love to leave it for my children, my children's children.
- 7:35You know, like it's kind of like a legacy.
- 7:36And how cool would it be if my grandkids were sitting on a couch talking about my investment portfolio?
- 7:43I'd be stoked.
- 7:44So I had a look at the portfolio.
- 7:46So I've sent it to me.
- 7:48And I've got a few takeaways.
- 7:50Yeah, we were going to go through it.
- 7:51We just thought, we are to hurt her together a bit at their time.
- 7:54For watching Vista then learn from how she did it.
- 7:57She obviously had some that didn't go particularly well.
- 8:00Yeah.
- 8:01And some that went really well.
- 8:02But we just want to look at it as inspiration, because I think, yeah,
- 8:06just firstly, the fact that she was investing at a time we had to look at stocks in the newspaper, right?
- 8:11And this was a time when there wasn't pretty much like any woman in the finance industry.
- 8:17The first lady on the New York Stock Exchange was 50 years ago.
- 8:21So like if you think there's very few women now, imagine what it was like 50 years ago.
- 8:26I can't even, I really want to imagine like the criticism she would have got when she's like,
- 8:31I'm doing an investing club.
- 8:32I'm investing that money.
- 8:33Like, you know, I can just imagine not a stigma, but the judgment or, you know,
- 8:39what do you mean you're investing?
- 8:40You know, that kind of thing would have been so fascinating back then.
- 8:44I wonder if people she spoke to about it.
- 8:46I wonder if she was quite open and talk to everyone or if she kind of kept it.
- 8:50Or the number of people that were like, oh, you should take it out now.
- 8:52You should take it out now.
- 8:53You know, the market's going to fall.
- 8:54Like, you know, there would have been so many people in her ear.
- 8:56And she would be like, nope, nope, I'm going to keep it in there.
- 8:59I'm going to keep it in there for my very good.
- 9:00Oh, I'm so proud.
- 9:01I'm so proud.
- 9:02Anyway, I want to talk about how well it's done, because it's all well and good investing for the long term.
- 9:09But I want to kind of tell people why.
- 9:12And so she started with about $12,000, 50 years ago.
- 9:16And now it's at a million dollars.
- 9:19So if we broke that down kind of the average return per year,
- 9:23it's just over 9% return per year, which is amazing.
- 9:27Like, to get that average, considering all the market corrections and falls that we've had over that time, you know,
- 9:34we've had the global financial crisis, we've had the dot com, which was in 2000,
- 9:38which was when all the internet companies blew up.
- 9:40Like, there's been so many blow-ups in the stock market.
- 9:43Yes.
- 9:44She still managed to deliver over 9% return.
- 9:47That's amazing.
- 9:48And the stock market, I calculated versus what the stock market's done, the stock market.
- 9:52And that's only done 8%, it was just under 8%.
- 9:54So she bit the market.
- 9:56Oh, my gosh.
- 9:57Yeah.
- 9:58She's so cool.
- 9:59Which is quite amazing.
- 10:00Yeah.
- 10:01And I remember speaking to her dad and he was like, she definitely had some blow-ups in there as well herself.
- 10:06Yeah.
- 10:07So I think that, you know, this is a return considering she's had some pretty bad investments in there,
- 10:14which is kind of comes to my first point, which is one of the four takeaways that I have is that,
- 10:21I think the reason it's done so well over the long term is because it is so diversified.
- 10:27You know, those few bad investments that she had in those finance companies in New Zealand
- 10:31didn't make a huge impact because...
- 10:33What are the finance companies?
- 10:36So back in the global financial crisis, there was like companies that you would invest in,
- 10:42that would then lending your money out to projects and things that they had self-interest in, if that makes sense.
- 10:50So a real simple example.
- 10:52It's like, hey, I've got this company invest in my company and I invest in this property, for example.
- 10:57But really, I'm the investor and I'm also the owner of the property.
- 11:01So I've been a fit.
- 11:03So it was just like all this kind of intertwined, muddied kind of conflicts of interest.
- 11:07Right.
- 11:08And it was borderline illegal.
- 11:10But that's kind of...
- 11:11And they're all unravelled and blew up and then that...
- 11:13So she had invested in a few of those.
- 11:15Yes.
- 11:16I remember my dad saying, I don't remember what the companies were called, but I remember my dad saying
- 11:20that she did make a few bad investments and lost quite a lot of money.
- 11:23Yeah.
- 11:24And that was in New Zealand.
- 11:25And then in the US there was all the companies, the banks and finance companies.
- 11:27They were giving out dodgy mortgages.
- 11:29And so then people couldn't pay their mortgage and then that led to kind of the downfall of lemon brothers and stuff
- 11:35which you may have heard of.
- 11:36Big, big investment banks over there which kind of filtered through the finance industry and the economy.
- 11:42So she made some bad decisions, but she also made some good ones.
- 11:45And then we're basically saying that because the reality of investing is that you...
- 11:49You're going to have a bad investment.
- 11:50There's going to be stuff you're investing in.
- 11:52I have bad ones.
- 11:53I'm just still going to have bad ones.
- 11:54But this is why if you can spread your risk by investing in a lot of different companies,
- 12:01when one does blow up, that's not your life savings.
- 12:04You know that's 10% or 1% of your money.
- 12:09So you're like, you know what?
- 12:10That's fine.
- 12:11Move on.
- 12:12I mean, I mean, I'm impressed to get that number as what I mean.
- 12:17Because the amount of research you would have had to do with no access to Google.
- 12:21Totally.
- 12:22She would have been reading the paper to find out the end of the day share prices.
- 12:25Like that's back in the day.
- 12:27I can just imagine with like a highlighter and a pen and a glasses writing down all these notes and showing it with a friend.
- 12:33I had a boss bless his heart who would check the newspaper for the for the share prices at the end of the day.
- 12:37And I'm like, you realize we have it on the computer minute by minute.
- 12:40But it was just he was just such an old school mentality way of investing.
- 12:44So it was quite funny.
- 12:45But yes, the way that you even used to trade, you didn't have as she is, you know,
- 12:49you couldn't just type in, I want to buy this company and it would automatically happen.
- 12:54And so that's what I'm going to do.
- 12:56And so that's what I'm going to do.
- 12:57And so that's what I'm going to do.
- 12:58And so that's what I'm going to do.

- 23:24And so that's what I'm going to do.
- 23:25And so that part
- 23:38and she invested for the long term, which we've kind of really touched on and, you know, she kept
- 23:43in there for 50 years, which is absolutely bananas. And yeah, I think it's just goes to show the
- 23:50longer that you can invest for the bigger your gains, because the stock market goes up over the long
- 23:56term. Yeah. So what about in this situation, because I've been talking today about this, because I
- 24:01know that he's, because the money I think now he can move to a managed fund or something, I'm not
- 24:07really sure he's looking at the options of moving it into maybe some different investments.
- 24:12Yeah. Do you, I know this is not advice, however, in that situation, you know, you're saying leave
- 24:20it in there. If it was to be moved to different investments, because it looked like maybe we're
- 24:25worth was just like, I don't know, not the best investment, whatever. And it was moved somewhere
- 24:29else. Is that still the same concept as leaving it in? Yeah, I think it's, you still keep me in
- 24:35investors. Yes, you're selling out a one thing and putting it another, but as long as you keep it
- 24:38in investors, the only thing with managed funds, they have additional fees on them, but just, I
- 24:44just more met the idea of moving the money into different investments. It's still this, you,
- 24:49that's a good idea, if you think that other investments are going to be better than what you think.
- 24:52Whatever you've got. Yeah, that's the whole point of when you're looking at what to invest in,
- 24:56it's like the trade off of, okay, do I keep the money in this company or fund or do I invest,
- 25:01or do I transfer it or invest and put the money in something else that I might,
- 25:04that might do better. And that's what I was doing every day when I was managing money. It's like,
- 25:08okay, this is the portfolio, but can I find something better? And if so, then of course do that.
- 25:15But yeah, there's that famous saying of, it's time in the market, more than timing the market. So
- 25:21whatever you do, don't take the money out and wait around until you find something else to invest,
- 25:26you know, like you keep the money invested and keep it growing over that time. It's the probably
- 25:30the most important thing. And if you don't know what to invest in, just invest in the index,
- 25:34like it's, yeah, so yeah, like we said, it's delivered 8% return over the long term.
- 25:39So just amazing, yeah, way better than when you're getting the bank. So do it, do it, do it.
- 25:44Do it, just do it. What's that song? Do it, look it nice. It's like good, something, something
- 25:50just like you should, yes, my neck, my back, my pussy. Is that the song?
- 25:59Well, it's all yours. It was such a classy portfolio, I mean,
- 26:06I'm sorry to be sorry, sorry, but yes, but I think this is a really cool way as well
- 26:15to get you, your dad, your family interested in investing, you know, like how cool would it be
- 26:21if I could leave a portfolio to my grandkids and get them interested in investing and show them
- 26:27how easy it is to grow wealth of generations and create this kind of family legacy. It's quite
- 26:33quite awesome and quite cool. Yeah, it's amazing. I think maybe I need to haul a family meeting.
- 26:37Yeah, just be like, guys, this is the situation. How amazing is she? Yeah, let's not effort up.
- 26:45And also, let's not get some rogue uncle or auntie that's like, let's sell it all.
- 26:51That would be the worst. It's like, you build up this legacy and there's like wealth,
- 26:54and then you just get someone that makes a really shitty decision. Yeah. But I also think
- 26:59from this, like one, another thing is, you don't have to pick all the best stocks. Do you know what I
- 27:04mean? I think, I definitely get decision paralysis sometimes. Yeah, that's the best one. Exactly.
- 27:10And you kind of farting around trying to find a really, really good one and it's like, just pick one.
- 27:14Just invest. If you invest in 50 years, you know, like, you'll be fine. So it's just, just invest. Stop
- 27:22pissing about trying to find the best stocks. Well, it's into auntie works. Yeah, yes.
- 27:27So yes, I loved that episode. And I just think it was meant to be in the start of the
- 27:34curve. Yeah. The title could be, my grandma's million dollar portfolio. Yes. And if you may,
- 27:40please don't ask us. No, no, no, no, no, no. This is, she's, she's dead. We love her and we just
- 27:45proud. We're not trying to tell people to go and do what she did. Please don't invest in what she's
- 27:49invested in. No, no, no, no, no, caveat, caveat, caveat, caveat. It's a really, really good example
- 27:54to look at how much that $12,000 gross one million. I'm sorry. That's crazy. If you're not going
- 28:00to invest stuff to knowing that, then you may as well just not listen to this podcast anymore.
- 28:04And the key takeaways, have a diversified portfolio, invest in those boring companies or companies
- 28:09you know, invest in companies with dividends because they're pretty financially sound and invest
- 28:16for the long term. Yeah. Do it. Do it. So you've got to the end. Well done. Congrats. Now,

- 28:56like diversification, if someone said that, you don't need a bigger elaborate explanation. Someone
- 29:00that's kind of been with the curve since the beginning, or you know, there's, they've listened
- 29:04to a lot of episodes. They may have done a course. Yeah. That's that's what we consider as kind
- 29:09of an immediate investor. Well, you might be investing, but you're like, I know I could be doing more
