Advice is expensive.
So we made it complimentary?
I opened my new office in Martin Place.
It’s a new venture, so I’m starting with two chairs, a desk and a sign.
Given I was celebrating my first day, I was offering complimentary sessions.
At first? Nobody stopped.
The narrative we all hear is:
“Advice is unaffordable.” “Advice is only for the rich.” “Advice is out of reach.”
So I removed the price.
And still… unaffordable, only for the rich and out of reach?
After harassing hundreds of people, a few eventually sat down.
And those conversations? Incredible.
Honest. Vulnerable. “This conversation changed my life.”
Conversations about:
• Career pivots
• Relationship pressure
• Property timing
• Fear of making the wrong move
Advice isn’t expensive.
Avoidance is.
You say:
“I can’t justify investing in advice.”
But you’ll justify:
• Staying in the wrong structure for five years
• Paying unnecessary tax
• Holding dead capital
• Selling property too early
• Buying the wrong asset
• Not debt recycling
• Not structuring correctly before a liquidity event
• Keeping super on autopilot
• Waiting for options instead of creating them
Why People Avoid Advice
It’s not the money. It’s what advice forces.
Advice forces:
• A decision
• A number
• A trade-off
• A timeline
• A truth
If you sit in that chair, you can’t pretend you’re “sort of thinking about it.”
You’re in it.
Advice removes stories.
Most people are attached to their stories, and their stories aren’t serving them.
The Real Cost of Advice
Advice costs money. But not getting advice costs more.
Compounding works both ways.
The wrong structure compounds.
The wrong delay compounds.
The wrong asset compounds.
So does the right advice.
My office is here to stay.
I’ll be back in the city this Wednesday.
