Description:

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
