She's On The Money

What do financial advisers actually do? Am I ready for financial advice? $10k has landed in my account, what do I do?!
On this week’s Deep Dive, Victoria invites friend-of-the-pod Daisy Egan, financial adviser with Everest Wealth to answer all of your pressing (and pure unhinged) financial questions. And sure, while some of them are normal and fine and reasonable, others verge on despicable.
Come to learn about the largest portfolio size Daisy’s ever managed (Spoiler: there are many zeroes involved). Stay for the spicier q’s including: ‘I’m waiting for my nan to pass away. What things do I need to put in place tax-wise?’, ‘Have you ever told someone that they can’t afford to have a child?’. And ‘What are some sneaky tips to help me financially prepare to leave my husband?’.
Nosy parkers, assemble!

This week's Money Diary proves there isn't just one way to build wealth.
Growing up in a working-class family, she didn't inherit financial advice, a house deposit or a roadmap. So she made one herself.
From 18 to 25, she skipped renting altogether, house-sitting her way across Melbourne, looking after other people's homes and pets while quietly saving every dollar she could. It wasn't glamorous, but it helped her buy her first home on her own in her twenties.
Fast forward to today and she's 36, single, earns $177,000 a year, owns a home worth around $1.2 million, has more than $250,000 in super and is slowly building an investment portfolio, all without relying on a partner to get there.
We chat about climbing the corporate ladder while completing a master's and PhD, navigating redundancies, why she's still not convinced she deserves an A for her money habits, and the reality of building financial security on your own.
It's a conversation about doing things differently, trusting yourself, and remembering that building wealth doesn't have to look the same as everyone else's.

Growing up, home never really felt permanent. Her mum battled addiction, money was always tight, and by the time she was a teenager she'd already experienced more instability than most people do in a lifetime. When her mum passed away unexpectedly, there was no inheritance waiting for her. Just grief, unanswered questions and a decision to create a different future for herself.
Today, she's 32, works as a nurse, owns two properties, has just $40,000 left on the mortgage for her home, and is already planning the next investment. But what I loved most about this conversation wasn't the numbers.
It was the mindset.
We chat about growing up between two completely different worlds, learning that your childhood doesn't have to define your future, the power of financial independence, and why she's determined to build the kind of security she never had growing up.
This episode is a reminder that your starting point doesn't have to be your finish line. Sometimes breaking the cycle starts with one decision, one conversation, and believing that your future can look completely different to your past.
