Still think buying property is the best way to build wealth?
For generations, Australians have been told that “property is the smartest investment”. But is that still true?
Soaring house prices, tighter lending rules, and stagnant wages have made property harder to afford – and in many cases, harder to justify.
Meanwhile, the share market continues to offer a lower entry point, greater flexibility, and often stronger long-term returns… if you know how to use it properly.
Whether you’re renting, already own property, or are thinking about your next move – this live workshop with Marcus Padley will give you a fresh perspective on where to invest your money in a changing landscape.

Marcus’s ruminations are the most helpful part of the newsletter. His thinking aligns with my temperament, and I appreciate the openness in his reasoning, especially when it comes to broader market movements and how they’re navigated.

The Pre-Market Report is my go-to each morning. It gives me a quick, clear snapshot of what’s driving markets, with excellent tables and smart summaries. I also love the layout updates and the retro images – keep it up!
